Regarding the arrangement of the shelving, today I relocated the three tables to an adjacent wall and nook. This move allows sufficient space for the reference and non-fiction shelving to completely ring the perimeter of the meeting space side of the room. It also allows for two additional shelfing units, which are needed to house the "surprise cache " from the Teen/YA section and and a large series about U.S. states uncovered in a small closet yesterday. This relocation also allows for the photocopier to be moved out of the Early Reader /Storytime area, which was one of the stated goals.
The nicest change can be seen in the Early Reader/Storytime area. With the photocopier relocated to the reference/non-fiction section, there is now room for seating for storyteller and readers:
Next week's goals: Finish the last section of non-fiction: 800s and 900s, then shelf read the Early Reader section. If the scanner arrives the shelf-reading may be combined with starting the cataloging portion of this project.
