Several tutors are available to help students. Two grade seven girls are putting books away for me. Cheryl drops by to pick up the reviews of the novels I mentioned this morning. I glance out the window. It is dark again.
Girls run past in shorts and t-shirts.
Maybe it is a perfect day for fireworks after all. This day in my life as a teacher-librarian was created from a collage of experiences of my seven years at Samuel Hearne Secondary School. The library has a small budget and we have a big problem with theft and loss of books. The library is now used as the Program Support centre too. There are excellent computer facilities but they are not integrated into the school library facility and program.
