My primary responsibility in my library is to oversee student workers. Being newly hired, myself, I am still no expert on all of our library’s procedures and protocol, but as I learn I’m taking notes (both mental and physical) on how to pass on the necessary knowledge to new student workers come fall. (We do have one student worker this summer, but she has worked in the library for the last two semesters, so she really doesn’t need any training.) As I said in my first post, I was a (preschool) teacher for several years, and I have no problem stepping into that instructor role again. I was wondering if anyone reading this who has worked in a library (previously or currently) may have some pointers about what to include in a student handbook or some other kind of “expectations” document that I can go over with new hires. Honestly, my biggest worry is having students come to work in the library who see it as an easy paycheck without taking any pride or initiative in their work...

Library Lion by Michelle Knudsen and Kevin Hawkes When a lion comes to the library one day, no one is sure what to do. There are no rules about lions in the library. When something terrible happens, the lion quickly comes to the rescue in the only way he knows how.
