Apparently I have the reputation of being mean and hard on
my students. I was unaware that I was so unfriendly as
the students that come to me are always asking for
assistance and talking with me. I am trying get teachers
to open up and ask me for assistance with their classroom
units, but with this reputation, I seem to be scaring them
off instead.

I have had more activities in the library this year than
ever before. I have worked with more teachers this year
than in all previous years combined. People come in and
comment about how inviting I have made the environment. I
am sending out newletters about activities in the library,
so I am communicating more than ever. I am following the
rules that have been set before me about student usage.
Mind you, I do not set these rules. I am, however,
required to follow them. These rules limit how the
students get to come to the library. These rules are
changing next year due to factors outside of the library.

I know this is a long post, but as I plan for the next
year, I would love for the critisim to be that the
students want to be in the library instead of the
classroom. I can only get the students to read if they
are here with me. Any suggestions would be helpful.

Thanks
