In four days our school year will have come to an end and I am wondering where the time went! I had goals...so many goals. Actually, I probably had too many goals. Combining the position of librarian with the technology position brought a lot of challenges and on many days was overwhelming! Obviously, my goal to keep up this blog was a complete failure, but I am hoping that I can continue to work on that! Even with the setbacks, I thought the year was a success, and I hope your student(s) did too.
We continued to have great circulation in our library! This year there were almost 16,000 books checked out from the library. Most of the students checked out a lot of books, but the check out numbers for our top 5 patrons were AMAZING!! They are as follows:
1. Zak Swanson (569 books checked out)
2. Gracie Swanson (563 books checked out)
3. Caitlin Stec (456 books checked out)
4. Carter Buell (452 books checked out)
5. Bridget Lewis (427 books checked out)
That is an astounding number of books!
We added lots of new titles to our collection this year and I made sure to showcase these new titles so the students could see all the cool new books that we had for them to check out! I never knew that books about snakes would be so popular...not my favorite subject for sure!
I hope our students will keep reading over the summer! Please encourage them to take part in the summer reading program held by the Rock County Public library and the BGS Summer Reading Challenge! Can't get to the library? Be sure to check out the link to our online library catalog where there are thousands of titles for students to enjoy! I hope everyone has an awesome summer and I look forward to seeing you in the fall.
