School has started. It is a little quieter in the mornings, but the library is jam packed after school. It looks like it will be a very busy school year. The usual runs on titles for reading lists is well underway. We have had one school visit and this is only the second week of the school year.
Along with the school rush goes keeping up with the book displays. It seems all our children's book displays are depleted as soon as they are stocked. We are working on ways to maintain this as it is a good indication of greater circulation.
Programming for the fall is planned and Storytimes start up again this week. We are very fortunate to be able to continue with Spanish Storytime this semester. Other programming will include monthly after school programs and a special program from the American Lung Association, Asthma 101 in October.
New this semester is the El Toro Library Teen Advisory Board. These enthusiastic teens have had their first meeting. The Board's first project is Teen Read Week coming in October, the 18th through the 24th.
It looks to be a very busy school year. The staff is excited. We have greater interest and participation from kids, teens and parents. We are looking for new ways to better serve with more programs and new materials. Special thanks to the Friends of the El Toro Library who make all this possible.
