Back to school yesterday. Thankfully all the displays had survived the cold weather - I had expected to come in and find much of the display work on the ground but thankfully not.
Have been playing around with netvibes.com and started a new website to promote the library, http://www.netvibes.com/sris#SRIS_Primary_Library After a couple of visits from the IT team I have managed to make this the home page for the Library computers. It involved downloading Firefox onto all the machines as the graphics wouldn't work with IE6.
Netvibes is really easy to use, got lots of handy little widgets to add in feeds, weblinks and other useful stuff. Only hiccup at the moment is the inability to add in data files like excel or work but I am sure there will be a way around that.
Predictably lots of students have forgotten books but it is still busy with kids popping in and out throughout the day.
I am plagued by an annoying dry cough which is making story telling a little hard, I have had to resort to Tumble books today but the kids seem to like it.
Starting my first Library Monitor acitivity this afternoon - should have 8 year 5/6s who want to learn more about the Library.
