I agree with Debra. I realized how stressed out having checkout at the end
of library was making me and everyone else so I moved checkout to the
beginning or middle of library. In my opinion getting the right book in a
child's hands is my most important job. I can adjust the length of my
lesson or story to fit the time I have left. I can't hurry up a child who
is looking for the right book without causing someone to stress out
(usually me!)
