TARGET MS Library Shedules/classes

[Leslie Starasta <lstarast@ROE51.K12.IL.US>]

    I'm a jr. high and high school librarian.  The two schools are in one
building but have two libraries.  I spend most of my time in the high school
library except for one period a day in the junior high during their study
hall and when a teacher requests.  Unfortunately, the teachers rarely
request because they feel I'm too busy to be bothered.
    In order to serve the junior high students better, I've tried for
several years to work out some library time in literature and grammar
classes.  Finally, the teachers are beginning to consider this idea.
However,  I was curious as to what other middle schools do to facilitate
library access for all students.   A scheduled class seems kind of backwards
in the age of flexible scheduling but I can't seem to think of other good
options.
