Well, the summer holidays are over for this school librarian as I am now back and preparing for the new term. There is still a long list of things to do, none the least reshelving the books removed whilst central heating pipework was being replaced.

The other main task for day was to sort the Reading Record files and prepare various new versions of library notices which get tatty over the course of a year. Plants have also been tidyed up a bit, removing dead leaves and pruning back where necessary. Furniture is also nearly all back where it belongs. Still lots to do over then next 4 days before pupils are back next week including preparing library cards for our new S1, ensuring catalogue works on all PCs, putting up fresh posters and notices,  catching up on book processing and cataloguing and giving the desk / office area a good tidy.
