<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small">My student library aides are all seniors, and I usually have 1-3 per school year. They shelve, check books out to students, help process books, and check in orders. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"> During the 2nd semester, I allow them to help choose a few books for the library. I will tell them a set amount of money or number of books, and they can choose titles to add to the collection. I keep an enormous Amazon wish list of books I'm considering that have positive professional reviews and they pick from those. This year, because I have a highly motivated student (she started her own used book pop up shop!) I also let her look at other titles and then helped her find professional reviews for them. She read the reviews and then we talked about them together and decided if they were good options for our library or not. I also have the students pick out at least one book that they might not read personally, but is of a topic that has been in demand when they are working in the library, to help them understand that as a librarian, you need to think of your patrons and not just what you may like to read.</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-size:small"> When the books the student library aides select arrive, we make a big display of them in the library for students to check out. They also have the option to include a "selected by" book plate inside each book. They are always very enthusiastic about help choose books for the collection.<br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Dec 8, 2022 at 10:21 AM Stephanie Powell via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div class="msg3086989312097354222">

and keeping books organized for a specific area of the library). We had a problem where aides earlier in the day were doing all of the shelving, so then 7<sup>th</sup> period aides never had to shelve. By giving each of them a section, everyone shelves and
our shelves stay much more organized. <u></u><u></u></span></p>
