 * Kathleen, there are piles of books in the working bin that Josie put there for you. They are multiples that were on the shelves as she completed the first fiction wall for the inventory. I wasn't sure how many books you were leaving on the shelves (2?) and how many in the closet (the rest??) Yes, 2 for the shelves, the rest we can put in the closet. Kathleen, I collected a lot of extra copies of books today as well. I already put them in the back, but in no order. I didn't want to mess up how you were organizing them. So on Monday, would you like to show me how you were putting them? Then I could fix it up again back there. Thank you!
 * Josie agreed to take boxes to HS and give to Donna. We can pack them up today. Completed 5/4
 * Enjoy your Friday ladies...let's keep moving through our list!! I'm feelin' good! Nice, and Light and Airy.....
 * Ok, Happy Monday! I'll be teaching Periods 5 & 8 again with Chamberlain's class all week. Please, be sure to answer the phones and keep an eye on the desk while I'm back there. It doesn't mean you need to plant yourself there, you can still do your "thing" whatever that may be, but just keep a look out.
 * Period 4 this week I'll be meeting with Santora to work on imovie editing
 * we're cooking with gas as far as the inventory goes! Let's keep it up! Jenn-we are down to one sheet of AR red stickers - K
 * Thank you
 * Call numbers need changing on the audio tapes- CD or AT is the prefix followed by FIC and author's three first letters
 * Josie, while we wait for the tech dept to get us back online, you can revisit the list above and work on what I've highlighted in orange. Let me know if you need anything.
 * As of 5/10 Fiction inventory is completed! With only 10% missing! (probably checked out books) Thank you both very much for my gift Kathleen and ms. Caputo, it was very thoughtful! There is a yellow cart filled with extra books for the back... I am starting to put them in the back today. There are some more that could not fit on the yellow cart by the graphic fiction on a shelf that was empty. They are all alphabetized, on the shelf and on the cart. I am hoping to get through the majority of them today, but just in case, I wanted to let you both know why books were where they are. There is also a cart in the back that I have used all year for books to complete Q Readers. I put it in the back so it was out of the way when I got back. This is what I plan to work on when I get back. it should only take me a day or so and then June first will be coming around to complete the highlighted list above!
 * P.S. - feel better Kathleen! and I will miss you both (:
