November Library Stats!
Important Inventory Info!
Every other year, the library is required to do a full collection inventory. The same way a business conducts an inventory to verify its assets, a library must also verify that all materials are present and accounted for. No, it's not fun at all, but YAY it's only every other year.
Our inventory this year will be Janurary 3rd - 14th. We estimate it to take two weeks. I'm hoping to get it knocked out in one week. HOPING!
During inventory, there will be NO CHECK-IN/OUT OF LIBRARY MATERIALS. Please do not send students for check-in/out during inventory.
The library space will available if you need it as an alternative classroom, but materials won't be available for check-out and Mrs. Bayardo and Mrs. Washington won't be available for teaching assistance or collaboration. There will be NO CAFE and the library will be CLOSED for all lunches.
Thank you so much for being flexible during this small interruption in the library schedule. I know the students will miss the library, but I promise to work quickly and efficiently to get the library back in business, a.s.a.p.!
