Re: June closing of Library

[Sheila Davis <daviss@MEOL.MASS.EDU>]

Hi Deb,

I am a media specialist in a k-6 school of 460 students. I am full-time
with no aide, but I have been in part-time situations before. I stop book
circulation 3wekb before the last day of school, thus making all books
due 2 weeks before the last day. Th media center remains open for
teachers to bring their classe for work, research, use computers or VCR, etc.
I do prep time for the kindergarten teachers so I have to see those
classes til the end. I do games and story videos with them the last 2 weeks.

Hope this helps.
