[aisle] New Library

[Karrie Fisher]

While you do this, if time permits, try and genrefy the fiction!  Kids love
the fiction organized by genre.  Also, you'll probably find a lot of old
and worn books that can be weeded.

That's a big job!  Good luck!  It'll be great when you are done.


Happily Ever After,
Karrie Fisher, Library Media Specialist
