Being a Librarian

This past week, I felt more like a librarian than I ever have before, and it was great! I feel so blessed to work with a great co-worker, friends at school and great students too. I can feel the dynamics on our campus changing for the better and I am thankful.

Here are some of my favorite things about being a librarian:
1. Reading all kinds of books and sharing them with adults and students
2. Working with my great librarian assistant - we are a great team!
3. Getting to know a wide range of students from different classes and grade levels
4. Encouraging teachers with lessons and teaching in general
5. Going to Starbucks in the middle of the day and not worrying about the stack of essays waiting to be graded!
6. Reading the "new" library books before anyone else
7. There is nothing like the feeling of putting a book in a child's hand...
8. Being in the center of the school so we hear it all - good and bad
9. Being a safe place for students and teachers to come and just enjoy the beautiful library we have
10. And of course, being surrounded by books!
