We started our new 6th grade Lit Lunch book today and had a very promising start! I always open sign ups to the whole 6th grade whenever we start a new title and had 15 students show up today - since its a class of about 50, I'm pleased with that! #schoollibraries #teachersoflitsy #librariansoflitsy
pickI have the best group of 6th graders in my book club this year! Today we finished Unplugged by Gordan Korman and they LOVED it - his books are always a hit and for good reason. #raisingreaders #schoollibraries #librariansoflitsy #teachersoflitsy
A (probably unrealistic) glimpse at my reading plans for the next couple weeks... I organize a holiday book swap at work and like to give everyone who takes part a used book in addition to what their partner buys them. I've been setting books aside for the last few months as I finish one or come across them at sales, but I have a specific person in mind for each of these. I just have to read tbem before i can give them away! #schoollibraries
"Mrs. Ross, i just finished this book and it was so good! You have to read it!" With an endorsement like that, I don't think I have much of a choice! #teachersoflitsy #librariansoflitsy #schoollibraries
My October box of books did not disappoint on the spooky front! I've got some avid horror readers in the middle school, so they're going to be very excited! #schoollibraries #teachersoflitsy #librariansoflitsy #scarathlon #teammonstermash
pickI finished this on audio yesterday while getting things ready for our first day with students. It was a really fun adventure story, and is getting added to the list of books I want to read with my 6th grade book club! #schoollibraries #teachersoflitsy #librariansoflitsy
“You add to the existing surrogate record and make this a second copy. In reality, your students don‘t care which edition they have, and they will get confused if they see two records for the same title. But, speaking as a cataloger, you have an edition that was created with the same type image with just a change in distributor. Make a second 020 for the Scholastic ISBN and be done with it.”
“The Resource Description and Access rule together with ISBD rules determine the content of the information included in the fields for physical description. However, RDA is not as concerned about the punctuation rules of ISBD as was AACR . . . The MARC21 rules determine how that information is organized for presentation in an electronic catalog.”
My library planner is here! I feel so official!! 😄❤️

Every year I tell myself I'm not going to take home a tower of books for the summer... and every year I do this. There's also a stack of middle grade titles around here somewhere because I literally have no self control. #schoollibraries #librariansoflitsy #teachersoflitsy #summerreading
