It's Wednesday! What's happening in the AME Library?

Teachers came back to campus yesterday!  Ms Margocs and Ms Moss were busy checking kits and materials in and out as teachers prepared their rooms for virtual and face-to-face teaching.  We won't have students come to the library for awhile yet, as we will be avoiding traffic in common areas, but we will offer book delivery to classrooms when students return!  Ms Margocs is also working with administrators for scheduling more synchronous lessons with both virtual and at-home learners.

All classrooms received a new screen, including the library!

It is super-cool--a touch screen and computer all-in-one!  It's going to be fun to use as we practice library and research skills, even if from a distance.

Ms Margocs has been meeting with classes during their morning time with teachers, and students have been asking some great questions.  One question was about the library--will it look a lot different when students can come back to it?  It will look a little different--we haven't moved furniture yet, but we have moved some books.  The graphic novels now have their own short shelves.

This has given us more room to shift nonfiction books.  We're also weeding out some books that no one has checked out for over four years to make room for newer books--which are on the way!  Our first shipment arrived today-- Bluebonnet books and new read-alouds. 

Don't forget about our Grab & Go Curbside Delivery Service!  We have quite a few books checked out that haven't been picked up yet.

Tuesday mornings were not bringing any visitors, so next week, Tuesday pickup times are changing to the afternoon--130p to 230p.  Thursday pickup times will remain from 5p to 630p.  Remember that the pickup is on the portable side of the school.  Grab & Go service will continue as long as we have at-home learners.

We'll see your faces in Google Meets this week, 'Dillos!  Keep on reading!
