Alta: A circulation desk arrives; the library begins to function

Jump to Comments

Hooray for furniture! We got our Smartboard, too, for the library and computer lessons. And CHAIRS! And, on the floor, you can see the storytime rug. It is finally coming together, furniture-wise.

Of course, what is the point of a desk if you don’t fill it with piles of books to process and catalog, and your library supplies?

Processing in a brand new library is a big job. That’s an understatement.

The behind-the-scenes work is necessary, but the real gratification comes from seeing the room in use. We may not have all the books we need, and we may have 500 books in boxes to work through, one at a time, but just having books circulating and in the space is more than I expected to see two months into the school year, with all our furniture delays. There is tons left to do, but this is certain progress.
