I am very excited about this week in the library! There will be a lot to remember as I look after the library while Mrs. Torenvliet is away. I am looking forward to getting to know all of you better – it may take me awhile to learn your names though!
This week Grades 6, 7, and 8 will be doing a short activity that will help me get to know you better. We will continue with the regular lessons next week.
Please remember to check the overdue list to avoid those fines.
Have a great week everyone!

Bon Voyage!!
Just wanted to say a little goodbye on my last day of work before I start my maternity leave! It's been a wonderful year and a half working in the middle school library, I've enjoyed being part of this school community so much! I will miss all you wonderful students and getting to share my excitement about books and reading with you. Enjoy the rest of the school year, and I hope to be back to visit soon with my new baby!

What's Happening in the Library
This week during library, some Grade 7&8 classes will have the subject/keyword searching lesson if they didn't last week, while I hope to move on to an intro on searching the internet and playing the Google Game with other Grade 7&8 classes.
All Grade 6 classes have now looked at the library blog and done a fun scavenger hunt, so we will now move on to ordering and finding fiction books on the shelf, so we'll be putting your alphabetical skills to the test!
I hope that it's a great week for everyone... each day will be special for me, as it will be my last Monday, my last Tuesday, etc.

What's Happening in the Library
Happy Monday! I hope you all had a great weekend and are ready to get back into the swing of things for another week (my second last!!:(
This week with Grade 8 and Grade 7 classes we will be covering how to do subject and keyword searches in the catalogue and do some practice of those searches. With Grade 6 classes we will look at the library blog (because I haven't shown it to them yet if you can believe it) and do a scavenger hunt on the blog.
We printed out quite the overdue list here in the library this morning... please check if your name is on the list and take care of any outstanding books and fines. Fines are collecting each day your books are overdue, so return them on time to avoid those pesky library fines!

What's Happening in the Library
Welcome back! I hope everyone had a great Christmas holiday! I sure did, I stayed very busy getting ready for my baby, and I realized yesterday, I didn't even finish one book over the holidays!
So to remind you once again, all books that were signed out in the two weeks before holidays are due TODAY!! Don't forget to stop by and return them, or renew any books you still want out. Please look at the overdue list on the library window as well and see if you have any overdues, there is quite a list.
This week in the library we will be taking things easy to get back into the swing of things by playing one of our new library games: this week, Library Lingo, for all grades. Have a great week back, and Happy New Year!
