Today I read to 2 more classes. The first was a kindergarten class that I read Mo Willems' books to. For this class, one of the librarians actually brought in a hand puppet of one of the main characters in the books. The kids had actually had heard the book that I had chosen before , but I read it anyway because I used the hand puppet to act out what was going on in the book. They really liked it. The librarian told me that the teacher said afterward that I got a laugh out of a girl that doesn't usually laugh very much. I read 2 different Willems books to the first grade class. Most of them had heard the first book that I read but again they still enjoyed it. The class enjoyed it so much that I showed them where they could find more Willems books and several of them checked out new books, as well as the ones that I read to them.
Another part of my day was spent going through our collection electronically to see if we had any books on a booklist from a Jewish book store in another state. Apparently the LMS uses this bookstore a lot to get a lot of tips on what is currently popular in certain categories.
I also spent a good part of my day shelving a lot of books that had built up, as well as another stack that a class had been using for several weeks but that they were now done with.
I opened up the front desk and I checked in and out a lot of books for a lot of classes. The library has also been having some troubles with vandalism on the laptops in the mobile lab. So the assistant and I set up kind of hardline check-in procedure where I thoroughly inspected computers as I checked them in to hopefully threaten the vandals, then the assistant checked them again as the students put them back into the cart.
