Week 3 - two sets of comments due Sunday 2/27

This week I want you to identify a skill or task that you know you need to work on. It might be something like how to use the copy machine, strengthening your shelf-reading and shelving skills, an aspect of circulation like processing holds or renewing, or familiarizing yourself with the location of certain types of materials. In a comment below, tell me what you are going to learn, how you are going to learn it, and how I might assist you.

At the end of the week, go back onto this blog and comment again. Describe what you learned, how comfortable you now feel with the skill, and if you have any questions or further instructional needs.

Also, this week we must do the contract!

  1. I need to work on my shelving skills. I plan to shelve as much as possible and pay attention to where I am putting the books. If I need help I will ask Mrs. Merrigan or Mrs. Trumm where to put a book if I get confused or lost.

  3. I need to improve my alphabetical shelf-reading skills. i plan to take about four or five books that are out of order and I'm going to organize them. If I'm putting the books in the wrong order or if I get confused then I will ask Ms. Trumm or Ms. Marrigan for help.

  4. I need to work on finding things in the back room with all the tv's. I need to just go back there and look around and commit it to memory where everything is.I just need time to go back there and look around without having to go do other things.

  7. I need to work on putting more books away because I am slow. To do this I will try to increase my pace a little each day and make sure the other SLA leaves some books for me so I can practice.
