@kelseybogan Thank you! I’ve done some serious weeding at my senior campus and very light weeding at the primary campus. Need to do more heavy weeding at the primary campus though because I’m quickly running out of space 😅 this is the sign I should work on a plan for this today!
@bb_alston@BNBuzz Co-reading book 1 with a Year 5 student at the moment - they were a bit daunted by@the size so I offered to read it at the same time as encouragement (we have 2 copies) 😊 I have finished yet but am very excited for book 2
@Sli_Library I’ve been working on my two NF collections since mid-term 1. Imagine the white Marbig archive boxes - I’ve weeded 7 from the primary/middle school & 12 at the senior campus with another 6 filled yesterday and 2 shelves pre sorted for weeding - no boxes left.
April is School Library Month, friends. 🎉🎉🎉
The Power of the School Librarian....a wonderful infographic with important information to share with our communities as we celebrate #SchoolLibraryMonth 😍

@MobleyintheMix Could you perhaps cut off the ‘bam’ part & keep the Graphic Novel part?
My GNs have GN AAA spines with an orange or green Graphic Novel text sticker. green let’s the younger kids know which books are more foundation level but they are all together on the shelves alphabetically.
I have been called in for a meeting on Monday to discuss as there’s been concerns expressed that I’m not available enough with two campuses & 40something classes to juggle in 30 mins blocks.
I’m trialling a Week A/Week B schedule but it doesn’t seem to be enough.
Any school librarians out there able to share their thoughts or experiences with non-library teaching staff (primary and/or secondary) borrowing from the library without the presence of library staff?
Any positives, negatives or other considerations?
@kelseybogan If it’s available I consider the Implanon implant. It still hurts a bit when getting inserted and healing, but I imagine significantly less than the IUD.
@TinaDuryea Mum never cared what I read but her ex was adamant I should rest Cate Tiernan’s Sweep/Wicca series because I was baptised & ‘it’s not a religion to support and messes with your mind’. I was 14 and halfway through book 1 so I read the other 15 books within a month & a half. 🤷♀️
Almost 200 new books being covered over the holidays to be on the shelves for the start of the 2022 school year. 🥰
Not shown - boxes and piles of books being weeded over the break when the teachers are away 😬 (about 50% are being reallocated to class libraries)
@mrsray_library If you’re happy to share, I’d love a copy of the spreadsheet! I’m new to Manga and just ordered our the first book (two were 3-in-1) of 5 series and already have students asking for more!
These are the stickers I currently use for Graphic Novels (green is a small section & might get moved into the yellow in future). Perhaps Manga can be like a mauve colour and I can do a ‘how to read manga’ poster that identifies which label/books it applies to.
Did this library manager just spend 20 minutes on TikTok search school library Manga to see where other libraries put them?
Yes. Yes she did. She is also still not 100% sure where she’ll put them. Maybe in the graphic section with a different colour sticker? 🙈
