I just have to say this to all of you out there, since with each day,
week I come to realize that I work in one of the few school districts in
the United States that doesn't feel that Library Media Specialists need
any sort of clerical assistance.  Whenever I hear the word "we" I am
green with envy.  I serve a very well-to-do high school of almost 2,000
students.  I run a very user friendly media center, am open before and
after school, as well at lunch time.  I teach most days 4 or 5 out of 6
periods, and sometimes 6 out of 6.  Clipping for the vertical file??
Sounds like a luxury beyond my wildest imagination...
