GEN: From the classroom into the library

["Joy B. Helmold" <helmold@SNET.NET>]

I moved to being a Library Media Specialist from a Music Specialist.
Strangely enough, most teachers assume I have been a "classroom" teacher
- I suppose because I handle most subjects well.  I originally got my
School Media Certification because I was afraid the music program would
be closed, and then I thought I could be the music teacher and librarian
in one school (oops, schools just don't think that way!)

I think many classroom teachers perceive that being a librarian is
easier to deal with than the classroom.  I'm sure they soon find out
differently.
