Nearing the end of the Beginning

Thinking about what I have learned over the course of this term is difficult to summate. I know that this course has provided a wealth of information to me concerning library materials; purchasing, cataloguing and storing.  I will need to go back and record all the websites that were shared. So many great ones!! The idea of access of information, a process to access it, was made clear. Getting to know your clientele, and the resources you possess is essential to the successful delivery of information. Our discussions concerning MARC records, Cip, Dewey Decimal systems, and jobbers to access information were absolutely essential to running a fine tuned library center.  I know there will be a major learning curve on the job, trying to put things all together.  Finally, I enjoyed completing the projects as well, because it gave me an opportunity to put myself in the situation as a teacher librarian, and work to find solutions. 
Thanks to everyone who contributed to the discussions
