Last Saturday was our fall open house at school. Basically we open the school up to prospective parents who can come in and ask the teachers questions. I got to hang around in the library not answering many questions and sometimes babysitting kids who had just been left to read books (and make a mess of my library). There has been so much to do in the library this year and because I was rather behind all of last week was busy busy getting ready. Luckily I got a lot of help from some of the teachers at school. We managed to finish putting a lot of the new books into the system and get some things moved around that really needed it. To top it off, I labelled the rest of the shelves, and Courtney made some great displays for the windows.
After the open house I was looking at my blog, and the photos from last year. I was shocked, because I had forgotten how empty it was last year, and how much work we've done since! I put the photos together into a before and after. The photos from last weekend don't even do the library justice - there are new things everywhere, and it is looking superb!

| Before and After. Before I had two shelves, each two shelves wide. I now have four shelves, each three shelves wide! Still lots of room for new books though :) |
