Tuesday

Today the network was unfathomably slow. Too slow to do anything like check my email. On the bright side, I have $219 to spend at Barnes & Noble for my library! And I ordered a barcode reader and barcodes so as soon as they come I can start automating and cataloging. Not that I had any official permission to order it other than from our administrative assistant. I still haven't met with my assistant head of school. I haven't heard fro OPALS recently either. I don't really know what to make of that. All in all, a good day. I got some more books shelved and I will be chaperoning a movie night next Thursday night. I feel like I can get entirely caught up in trying to market my library while simultaneously trying to automate it and get it going. I am torn. And stressed about which I should do because I really can't do both. But I feel like they are expecting me to do things. But on top of what I was hired to do I have done:

• Two lollipop fundraisers
• Two Scholastic Book Fairs
• A Barnes & Noble Bookfair that raised $219 for books
• Run the book bricks program
• Organized and chaperoned two small field trips

I am still frustrated.
