<html><head><meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8"></head><body dir="auto">I do not have a proper textbook room. Most textbooks are in individual classrooms- not even departmental book rooms. Here’s how I handle this in normal times as well as hybrid. Teachers sign up and I go to their room and check books out to students. Then go to next room as requested. The library is closed for the first week as I get through the list. I have a full time aide so we split the list. Takes about 5-7 minutes a class I book in 10 minutes a class. It’s ugly but works. I’d be thrilled to think that in a year I’d have a full fledged textbook room. <br><br><div dir="ltr">Kristine Schauff</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Nov 3, 2020, at 9:05 AM, Melissa Lambert via AISLE <aisle@list.railslibraries.info> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr">Hi All,<div><br></div><div>I am looking for a textbook distribution procedure for our 2nd Trimester.
