Quote 1 is done!

Apologies for the poor picture, I took it quickly at my desk.

Finally got the first quote finished. We are now planning the next one. We have also decided that on the large end walls, rather than another quote as originally planned we will have 'Library' in very large lettering - easier to paint!

The quotes going onto the walls

This is a teacher volunteering his time to paint a quote above my entrance door. The quote it,

“The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.” by Dr. Seuss.

Luckily the teacher was a signwriter in his previous life! By the end of the day we had about a line and a half done, so will take some pictures tomorrow.

Getting technical

So today was spent playing around with and setting up the new school OPAC (the library website linked to the catalogue) and starting a School Library facebook and Twitter account. They will all be linked to each other and hopefully will work to just promote the library in different ways.

The facebook page has already got two fans, and I haven't even told people yet!

We will have to monitor the facebook and twitter pages, as they may get abused, but fingers crossed they will be positive and a way of connecting with students in a new and exciting way.

Mini Displays version 3

This is another mini shelf display - based on the Ocean. I would love to have some hanging fish as well, using clear thread. May try and add that at some point.




This is just a poster, but I like how clear it is.
I'm not happy with this one. This is the careers section, but I just don't like how it turned out. Will leave it for a while, and come back to it.
