Shelving Returned Books

This week, I spent the majority of the time assisting Mrs. Deep put the returned books back on the shelves. Mrs. Deep was not here two of the days this week and she got very behind on reshelving the books. Therefore, to be useful to her, I helped reshelve the books. This is a daily activity that a media specialist must do. If you wait too long to reshelve the books, the patrons of the library may miss out on the “perfect book” because it was back behind the check-out desk. As a media specialist, I will ensure to stay on top of my duties and make sure not to procrastinate with returning the books to the shelves.

Additionally, I helped clean up the library and shelve books that had been put on the top of the bookshelf. Mrs. Deep has a policy for the patrons of the library. If they take a book without using their Sammy (placeholder), or if they accidentally remove the book, they can put the book above where they got it on top of the bookshelf. This helps patrons to not just stuff the book back in the incorrect place and order on the bookshelf. This helps to keep the library organized!
