Often there is a long list of things to do, this year two sides of A4.<\/p>\n<p>Jobs needing done range from getting down and dirty to dust and fully tidy the book shelves, to developing new courses, altering \/ adapting current courses processing books, and generally doing everything that one doesn&#8217;t get the time to do during term time.<\/p>\n<p>Here is an example of some what has gone on:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Shelf tiding &#8211; LOTS!<\/li>\n<li>Rearrange fiction so Graphic Novels, Manga, Quick Reads (now called &#8216;Short &#8216;n&#8217; Snappy) and audio books have their own shelves including rebuilding some shelving<\/li>\n<li>Tend to the plants<\/li>\n<li>Re do \/ up-date library guides and notices<\/li>\n<li>Filing piles of paperwork, then unfiling other out-of-date paperwork and sorting filing cabinets and storage boxes<\/li>\n<li>Lesson planning for Library &amp; Information Literacy Skills courses<\/li>\n<li>Preparing S1 &amp; 2 info lit workbooks and arranging for photocopying<\/li>\n<li>Inputting new borrowers on to the Library Management system and ensuring each has a library card<\/li>\n<li>Developing and lesson planning for revised S1 &amp; 2 Reading record and setting up pupil folders for their work<\/li>\n<li>Up-dating \/ creating reading record task sheets, turning them into PDF and uploading to <a title=\"SA Library Glow\"

they won&#8217;t upload to the blog at this current time&#8230;)<\/li>\n<li>Check library computers and ensure library catalogue running on them<\/li>\n<li>Shelf tidying &#8211; Oh, I have mentioned that already!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude09<\/li>\n<li>Library stationery &#8211; computer logbooks, booking sheets, etc.<\/li>\n<li>Rearranging the Local Studies Collection<\/li>\n<li>Ensuring boxes of newspapers, etc are off the floor so the cleaner can clean the carpet<\/li>\n<li>Tidy Staff resources (in the staffroom)<\/li>\n<li>Withdrawing old books<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&#8230; and thinking about what might not get done in time for the new term! :-O<\/p>\n<p>Of course, this doesn&#8217;t get done without the library becoming really messy first!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><a
