New Books, New Artwork

The library was full of amazing new projects about Japan. It was so great to see what the students were doing in other classes and I think it is a great way to get more kids into the library so see some of their classmates projects. Also a math poster project was going on and it was so great to see the library being utilized as the hub that it is.

Moved the Graphic Novels to a new shelf space, helped out some students and wrapped a ton of new books. It was good to see what was coming in and Laguna Middle School is so lucky to have funds for this. The books that were coming in were all very diverse genres and it was fun to read the jackets while I wrapped them. Plus I had not wrapped a book in about a year and I needed to retrain my brain in the wrapping zone.


Also interesting aside about publishers changing/updating the covers of books. I noticed the popular H.I.V.E, Higher Institute of Villainous Education by Mark Walden has a new set of covers. The kids look older and is really repackaged to appeal to the YA audience who love Manga. It's interesting to see the choices that publishers make.
