Re: [LM_NET] Honest Response Needed

[Janet Saczawa <Janet.Saczawa@LCSK12.ORG>]

I am a teacher who became a school librarian.  However, I think both are equally 
important.  The work with the students is more urgent - they need it when they are 
in the library, but if I haven't done the necessary "library work," my students 
won't be able to find what they need.

I don't use "shelf ready" processing, mainly because I found that I had to redo 
much of what I received to meet our needs.  The company doesn't know which books 
need to go in my Junior Fiction section, for beginning chapter books, etc.

As for teachers who complain that I have too much free time (but somehow I still 
seem to have to be here early, stay late, and work weekends), I explain that my 
aide and I do everything the public library does, PLUS teach!
