<div dir="ltr">I am the district librarian for a 2 building high school district. Grades 9-10 are at South Campus and Grades 11-12 are at Central Campus for a total of approximately 2800 students. We are on a modified block schedule where during a 2 day period students take 7 classes and 1 study hall. This means we have A and B days. Because of this, I work an AB block at one campus and then an AB block at the other campus. This allows me to teach classes, so that if a teacher has English I classes on both an A and B day, I can book talk for all the English I classes for that teacher. I do not received a stipend for travel since I spend all day at one campus. but teachers who travel during the day receive a stipend as per the contract. I have an online calendar that states which campus I am at for the day and that allows teachers to sign up to come to the library. If they want / need me to work with a class it goes on the calendar. I also ask them the email or talk to me about the assignments. We are not a 1 to 1 district, so teachers come to the library for computer use. There are 3 assistants who work in the libraries, one at South full time, one at Central full time, and one who mirrors my schedule so that there are always 2 adults in the library. There are approximately 350 students in each library each day; this includes students with classes and students from study halls. This is my 3rd year as the only librarian, and it is not easy. I don't have the time to get everything done. Please email me off list if you have any further questions. </div><div class="gmail_extra"><br clear="all"><div><div class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Carolyn Kinsella, District Librarian</div><div>Minooka Community High School</div><div><a href="mailto:ckinsella@mchs.net" style="font-size:12.8px" target="_blank">ckinsella@mchs.net</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>Central Campus</div><div>301 S.
