Our major difference is that I control 99% of the passes given to the
library.
-----------------------
Teachers at my school can write library passes but a pass from a teacher
does not guarantee the kids access to the library.  If I have two classes
in, or the student doesn't appear to have work to do, or if something else
is going on so that I can't supervise them, I send them back to class.  When
I started here 4 years ago it caused a little resentment on the part of a
few teachers-- but they were the ones who expected me to act as a
babysitter.  When they complained to the principal, he backed me up and I
rarely have any problems now.  Of course without the principal's support I
would still be fighting that battle.
