Notes

  Programs I directly supervised or offered this week - 4 (3 outreach storytimes and Bookaneers). I do Dungeons and Dragons with my teen services associate. My school colleague did family storytime, my teen services associate supervises the volunteers who do Paws to Read and offered Anime Club (no attendees this time) and one of the Dungeons and Dragons sessions (we split everyone into two groups), and my YS associate did We Explore Nature. She was scheduled for our biggest outreach storytime visit, but that had to be rescheduled to next week. My teen associate usually sets up Family Fun and supervises approximately 8 different teen volunteers at various times throughout the week.

  I was on the information desk for 3 hours and the youth services desk for 3 hours (it would normally be 6 but we closed on Friday). My teen associate had 5 hours on the YS desk and my YS associate had 6 hours on the YS desk.

  My teen associate had a board meeting for our school district's charter school (we take turns being on the board), and I transferred the marketing meeting over to her, so she ran her first meeting, which I totally forgot about and was 45 minutes late to... I had a managers' meeting, which I was NOT late to.

  My projects included my monthly report, latest updates on the data collection for the strategic plan, working on summer reading plans, and plans for the upcoming early reader weeding project, which I was able to discuss with one of our reading specialists last week. I also selected and packed a large collection of reading material for the fourth graders at one school, 4 baskets for a daycare/4K, and a number of monthly baskets for teachers doing Classroom-book-a-day.
