Head Tale

Usually it’s the Library Assistants who do this type of thing but today, I got to pitch in to play host to a visit from a school group.

It was a great chance to exercise some “librarian muscles” I don’t get many opportunities to use and many of the things I learned in my Children’s Librarianship class with Lynne McKechnie came flooding back.

And yes, if you look at the date on this post, a school visit in July is somewhat unusual.  But a school near my branch runs a really cool program where groups of students spend one of three weeks throughout July in half-day sessions meant to help them keep up their reading over the summer.

It was a great tour with a great group of kids that I look forward to seeing in the branch in the weeks and months to come!
