<div dir="ltr">Thank you. I agree about the 30-minute scramble. I have added Open Library times and encourage teachers to send their kids to the library on an "as needed" basis, but they are scrambling to find more instructional minutes. It's a dance to get
things working right.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm curious about your self-checkout. Do you find that your elementary students are honest, reliable, capable, 100% of the time? How can you rely on accuracy when running overdue and lost item reports?</div>

<div dir="ltr">Since we don't have a fixed time with them and they have flex checkout, we have set up a chromebook that has self-checkout for them. I had a few lessons where I demonstrated how to do it, how to search and how to find a book. It alleviated
that 30 minute scramble. I pull the classes as needed to go over library standards or embed them when I push into classroom curricular lessons to coteach.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Just a thought....we found that the 30 minute book checkout was a scramble, some kids didn't need to check out a book because they were still reading a book and it we felt it was less productive than a flex model. Happy to share with you how to set it
up, if that's of interest. </div>
