Weeding

I went to the Taylorsville Elementary School Library on Friday to do my weeding project. I successfully weeded (pretended to) the 921's which are biographies. I wasn't able to get the exact print out of the collection list the way it was set up when we looked at one the other night in class but I was able to get all the information and go through the collection myself to look at damages or duplicates. The librarian believed this to be the least used portion of her library...only one book has been checked out this year about Bill Cosby and she said it was quickly returned. I definitely feel that this is a valuable part of an elementary school collection and Taylorsville had a diverse mix of new biographies and very old ones. I haven't began to select 5 new ones to put into the collection yet and will probably begin working on that in class. I know that the librarian suggested one on Obama and one on McCain and Palin and maybe even some actors and actoresses.
