I assume you teach lessons as I do. Ask him if he would allow his classroom teachers to be interrupted all day long during teaching time. I am responsible for many state standardized test topics along with ELA teachers including Using Information Resources and Reading Comprehension and writing, map and reference skills. I take my lessons seriously as does my district with accountability and areas of teaching that I am evaluated on. I cannot stay focus with constant doors opening and closing, questions and stop to check them out. Unless you have a very large space and the teaching and classes are happening in another part of the library and you have a helper that can stop every few minutes to assist someone coming in ( and they will need help) This is an awful disruption of scheduled time. Other tasks like cataloging don't need to be constantly interrupted either. I know someone who did it and she had a person at a station all day just for that and they limited the number from each class to 2 at a time but it seemed her students heads were always turned to see who was coming in and their attention was not on her or her lesson. I vote no. Good Luck Bonnie Martiny Elem.

I have one 5.5 hour a day clerk who does everything: stories, circulation, AR prizes, raffle tickets for our AR raffle, shelving, etc. I don't really think this is doable. We already have multiple times per week that anyone can come when we don't have a class. I just think that scheduled classes deserve their uninterrupted time.
