Something new for Barkly College

2011 so far has been a year of challenges. There are so many exciting things happening in the libraries and this new blog is just one of them. The aim of this blog is to encourage students to get more involved in their school library and also to increase their literacy skills.
Many people do not realise that the library is not all about stuffy books and a grumpy librarian saying "Shhh",  every ten minutes or so. There is a plethora of information and fun to be had when you walk through these doors - all you have to do is be a little bit nosy and ask lots of questions of your librarian. Make them earn their pay - suprisingly enough, they love their jobs and are more than happy to help.
The library staff are still learning their way around writing blogs, and we are sure that this Web 2.0 ride is going to be exciting, albeit a bit bumpy at times.
By the end of this week, Carrie will have a new book review up. The book is written by Lesley Fairfield and is a graphic novel with a twist.
