Welcome to 2006-7 Meadows Library Media Aides
This year, you will write at least one paragraph every night that you had a Library Media Aide class during the day. The purpose for this assignment is to strengthen your descriptive writing skills and provide a record for yourself, your parents and for me about what you do each day during this class. I prefer 3 paragraphs of well-written, correctly spelled descriptive record of what you did during your Library Media Aide class. This blog participation is one rubric for this class. The more that you write the higher your grade will be in the class.

I want to be in this class because i was in it last year and i enjoyed it. I love working with computers and it is also nice to be in a small class because you tend to learn more that way. I also know how to work throughout the library since i was in this class last year so it will be even more fun because i will get the chance to do more in the library than before. In this class i hope to accomplish learning more skills in the library like using the smart board and other sytems and tasks.

Today in media I set up my blog. then a sixth grade class came in and I checked their books out. Then I put stickers on magazines that showed what the date on the magazine is. Then we put the magazines in groups.
At this point, in Media Aide, I would rather file books in alphabetical order because I haven't learned as much about the decimal system as I should have. I personally think I am better in Math than in Language Arts. I am excited to work in the media center. I think I will learn a lot more about how the library works and about the many resources it has to offer.
I started media aide by creating a blog. Then a class of sixth graders came in which gave me the opportunity to learn how to check out books. Finally, in order to find the dates more quickly on magazines, we put stickers on the front cover.

The first day of media aide, Mrs.Roof wasn't here so she had a substitutes which was Mr.Kaplan. So I didn't really have to do anything so Mr.Kaplan just let me go on the computer.

On the second day of being a media aide, I put new barcodes on some reference books.You take the barcode over the old one and put tape over the new one so it wouldn't get ruined.
Last time in class we learned how to check in and check out books for the students. We got to practice this by having a 5th grade class come in and check out lots of books. Today we learned what to do when the books are in the turn-in bin and we have to check them back in. Then we have to magnetize it and see if the alarm goes off when it goes through the book detector system. If it doesn’t then we had to put a magnetic strip on it and try it again. Today we also learned how to blog.
Last time I was in media aide we learned how to check in and out books and magnetize and demagnetize books. We laminated old books that we were ripped and torn.
Last time I was in media aid I learned how to check-in books and check-out books. I also learned how to magnetize and demagnetize books. We took ripped and torn books and laminated them. We also learned how to shelve books and learned which side was “fiction” and which side was non-fiction. Since I really enjoy typing I think I’m going to like media aid a lot!! I like the small class it makes it easier to learn!! I am very good with organizing stuff. I am really excited for this year to start!
Last time in media aid I learned how to laminate books that have been damaged or destroyed. I also learned how to check in and check out books. Then I learned how to magnetize books so no one can walk out with a book. I can’t wait to see what else Mrs. Roof has in store for me and my fellow class mates but I bet it will be something exciting!
Last time in media aide we helped laminate torn book covers to make them look much nicer. We also learned how to check in and check out books. Magnetizing the books was the most fun.so far media aide is my favorite class.I can’t wait to learn something new and different . I can’t wait to learn everything the library has to offer
Wednesday in media aides we had a substitute so we just did homework.
Friday in the library, first Mrs. Roof explained to us some of the tasks we would be completing in the library throughout the year. Then she showed us how to check out and in book. Then for the rest of the period we filed magazines, there where a ton because it was all the magazines that came in over the summer.
Today in media aide I learned how to see how many copies of a certain book there were. We did this by putting the title into the commuter and then pressing “copies” and then when we got the copies we had to write down the decimal system.
Today in media aid I learned how to stack books on shelfs and put stickers on the books.
On Friday, I did three main thinds. First I set up this account, then, I helped the following people check in books; Alicia, Arden, and Tessa. The third and final thing I did was dating the magazines.
In media aide, we learn how to check in and check out people. A class came in our first time and we learned how to use the computer better. This time we checked in a lot of books and used the magnetizer. Then we brought the books through the book detector to see if it would beep. If it didn’t, we learned how to put a magnetizer in the book.
Today was my third time coming in to class and I was able to log on the site. These first couple days in class was ok but know that our official teacher is here where guessing it well be a lot better. We all can’t wait to actually start working on organizing books and learning a lot of other things.
This is my third time coming to class and so far it has been fun. I have a lot…well not a lot of friends in this class, but I have one who is the coolest. Even with only one friend in this class I know that it is going to be a great year. Hopefully I will get all @+’s this year. I didn’t have this class this year but in some other classes last year I made some enemies. But in this class I feel really safe. Well, you heard me loud and clear, Mertz is out.
Hannah Lewis-
Well, since Mrs. Roof hasn’t been here it hasn’t been that much fun. But since she is back I have a feeling that I am going to like this class. I just hope I can get used to the silence in the library; it kina freaks me out! Any who, I hope I start to really start to like this class and that I learn how to properly care for a library!
Last time I was here I had to write this paragraph again. I only have 1 friend in my class. I also got a tour last time I was here. I hope to get all A+’s this year. I just hope to be friends with the girls.
Today in Media Aide I first pre-filed books. Then a 6th grade class came in and we, the media aides, took turns checking out books. Finally, we up-dated magazines in the magazine racks.
Today in media aide I did four things. First I helped pre-file books so that they could be easily put back onto the shelves. Next, I Helped check in and out books. Finally, I helped sort and check in magazines.
Today in the library we first stamped books with stamps that said “Madison Meadows Library” and then we magnetized each book and then we checked them by walking through the sensor and seeing if they beep. After that we sorted through the ones that had worked, and the ones that hadn’t. At the end of class we put in metal strips to some of the books that didn’t work when we tested them.
Mrs.Roof,
Every time I try to publish my comment it says my password is wrong. Every time I have to create a new account. When i was with Erin blogging this happened to her too.-- Just wanted you to know in case you needed to fix it, but it is ok with me I don't mind making new ones it just takes a while...

Today Ms. Roof came back. She gave us an introduction on the new check out system. Then the 6th grade Mrs. Wiens’ class came in to check out books. The kids chose their books and came to check them out. Their were some new kids at Meadows and they weren’t in the system yet so they had to write their names on a paper along with the number of their book and Ms. Roof would later put it in the system. So I checked out the people who were new and Alex checked out the people who weren’t new on the computer. That’s about all we did today.

On the 28th I looked up rebound books for barcode numbers in the title catalog. After that I went on the computer and set up an account so that I could blog.
In media I put all the books that were on the top of the shelf on the cart in alphabetical order. Except historical fiction because a sixth grsde class was coming in and they wanted to read a historical fiction book. I checked out their books for them. Then I organized the magazines. I took out the old magazine and replaced with the newer magazine. Also I checked books in, I magnatized them, made sure the alarm went off so no one could steal the book. Then I put it on the cart in alphabetical order.

-Elizabeth
Last time in media aide, I helped to add to the book list. It was surprising how hard it was because if you made one mistake, you had to do it again. It was also really time consuming and I spent the almost the entire period doing the booklist. I learned not to make mistakes when typing the titles!
The only thing I did was go on the computer and add some books into the library like what I did last time.To add a book I first typed in a number from the back of the book,then hit details,clicked on add copy,then typed in the barcode,call number,price and sublocation or vendor, and Funding source.Then I finally saved the copy.After that a class came in so I had to help check out books for them and that was all I did today.
On Wednesday in media I was only there for about 15 to 20 minutes because I got my bottom braces on. In that 15 to 20 minute time range I had to look for some Snooopy books because someone had done something wrong and a book was missing so I had to see which book was missing. That was all I did that period.
Today in media aides we added book to the book list. We also the next time we added copied to the library.

On Wednesday, October 11 there was a ton of books to be put away in the number section. So Ricki and I got right to it. Since there were so many Ms. Roof helped us out by putting the books in order on the cart. After that was finished there were just a few kids who came in to check in and out books. So while waiting for the kids to come to the counter we just laid back, relaxed, and talked.
On Monday we stamped a ton of books and put in magnetic strips. I also went on the computer and typed in book titles and either put a check if it was found or a circle if not. I did this while Brooke was on PowerPoint.
Today, in Media Aide, we mostly filed books. I do reference so I only did a few books. Right now, I am bloging in media aide. It is 2:39. It is 10/11/06.
What I’ve been doing in Media Aids is that we’ve been putting a lot of books in the shelves. Which is pretty annoying because a lot of books are in the wrong spots. Now I know how you feel Ms.Roof. That is what I’ve been doing in Media Aides.
Today we are trying to blog on line. We had it work a couple of times but now it just seems that it won’t no matter what. We did the silent Power Point announcements also. Savannah and I have a “taking-turn system” so every thing is quick and easy.

Last time in Media Aide we started out with checking in and magnitizing books. Then Mrs. Higgs' class came in to check out a book. When it was time for them to check out their book I was stamping their bookmarks with their duedates on them.

Last time in media aide we went to the office, but they didn’t need help. Since they didn’t need help they told us to go to the nurse to help. The nurse gave us paper towels and we went to the copy room and clean off the counter. Then we filed away some of the students screening papers from last year.
Today in the library I checked in some books and magnitized them. Then I checked if they set off the alarm. After that, Mrs. Roof and I were changing labels on some new books because the 6th grade media aides mixed them up with some other books; I guess they weren't paying attention. We did that for the rest of the period.
In media all we did was put stickers on the sides of boks. How we did it is that we looked to see the authors first three letters of his/her novel. Then we had to look inside to see what the barcode number is. That's all we did the whole time.
Today in media aide, I first had to fix some books which had the wrong spin labels on them.After we got all that fixed I went on the computer and Mrs.Roof taught me a way on how to get the barcode number for the book.That was all that I did Today.
The library is closed today and a note sent me to help me in the office. First I folded papers and stuffed them in an envelope. There was only about ten of these, tax cut letters, and there was nothing else the office had for me to do. I read some papers posted on the wall but from that there was nothing to do. About ten minutes before my next period I helped my social studies teacher, Lee Meyer, by helping him make a test over the causes of the civil war.

Library Media Aides,
This is the end of the 1st quarter. Everyone is helpful and has learned many of the routines. I appreciate everyone's hard work.
Ms. Roof
Today in Media Aide I started by organizing magazines. To do this you
1. Find the magazine you want to replace and find its name on a magazine index card.
2. Say that this magazine has been received.
a. If it is a weekly magazine find the month and write in the next box the date of publication.
b. If it is a monthly magazine write the month of publication on its appropriate spot.
3. Write the month of week of publication on a small piece of blank mailing label and stick on to the top left hand corner.
4. You find the magazine which is in the magazine slot and get the old magazine out of its cover.
5. Put the new magazine into the cover and place it back in the rack.
6. The old magazines goes into the storage room.
I did step 4 and 5.
Next I added new books into the library and gave it a barcode. Finally I added books for meadows’ use.
Today in media aide I worked solo Savannah got checked out. I used the scanner in the back room to scan the books that Ms. Roof was getting rid of. That made a list of the weeded books and I checked what the other classes had done. That scanner was so old you had to hold it up to the book for it to work, I like to scan. Well that's all for now.
Yesterday in media aide since you weren't there. Mr. Pazac led us through the office and in the media center we just did our homework and played on the computer. It was pretty fun eventhough you weren't there.

Today in the library I checked in some books, magnitized them, and checked if they set off the alarm. After that I put them on the fiction and non-fiction carts. Then I put category labels on some old books and taped them. That was what I did for the rest of the period.
What I did in media aides yesterday was pretty easy. I had to put some books back in the right place. I also took out some old books. One book was from the 1970's.that is what I did in class.
In media aide, we checked if the books that had just been labeled were magnetized. Then we ordered them by number. Next, we took them and replaced old books with them because they are more recent.
Today in Media Aide Katie and I labled books with their correct genres, and their book code. Today was another great day in Media Aide
Today in media aide we labled the fiction books with their genre and spine lables. We also blogged obviously. I prdict we will do this again or cut laminated book covers. I like this class.

In media I put tape over new book labels. Then before puting the books on the shelf, we had to see if it had a magnatized strip by going through the "out" door in the media enter.
Last time I had been in media aide we put the genre labels and spine labels on the books. For some of the books, we had to check on the computer what genre they were first. I used the paper cutter to cut some of the genre lables, I like using the paper cutter We also got Halloween cupcakes from a kid who was celebrating his birthday, at least I think he was celebrating his birthday. We also checked in some books and made sure they were magnetized by checking if the alarm went off. And then the bell rang.
I was sick November 1, so I missed class, so I have no idea what we did in media aide.
I was sick November 3 also, so I have nothing to blog because I don't know what you did in class.
Last time in media aide we shelfed books and checked in books and thats about it. I am really getting the hang of how everything works and the first time I walked in that class I thought it would be really hard and I wouldn't understand anything but Media Aide is really fun and interesting and I know where everything goes we always learn something knew and it's really fun!

During the past few days, I have been cataloging like I never did before. Cataloging means that a new book that Ms.Roof buys for the library gets cataloged into the system. To catalog you must have Roof sigh on and open the main menu. You then usually type in the ISBN (International S? Book Number) which is on the back of the book into the type in-box and click enter. Then you find the title of the book in the list of books that it brings up. Pick the one with the A+ on it. If it is not there then click on another one and use it, but make sure it is the right book and that it gives lots of details. Then click “add copy” and fill in the next barcode. Roof recently attached a scanner. You can scan the next barcode number from a paper and tick it so you won’t use it twice. Change the call number and reduce the number to a number that has 3 digits left and right to the decimal maximum. Then type in the first 3 letters of the author’s last name. For autobiographies type “bio” and then the name the autobiography is over. Then write the price of the book. You can find this in the price list, the back of the book, or you ask Ms.Roof. Then type in the category the book belongs to, and then type in where Roof got the book from. This can be found in the price list, or else ask Ms.Roof. Finally, type in “PTM fund” in the funding source box, unless Ms.Roof tells otherwise.

(election day)
Today in media aide,I first checked in books,magnitized,checked if the alarm would go off,and then filed them back on the shelves.After I was done with that, I took the scanner thing and scanned the country books that the students were using.And that was all I did today.
In media I checked a couple of books in. You first take the book out of the art, then check it into the computer, magnatize the book. Then, check to see if the alarm goes to, you do this so nobody can steal the book. Finally, you put the books in alphabetical order according to the first three letters of the authors last name.
The fifth graders that did not go to Camp Friendly Pines were in the library working on stuuf. Then the sixith graders came in to get a presintation from Ms. Roof about their country reports. So I didn't do anything for the remaning period.
In media aide today, we learned how to catalog books. There was already a class in the library, but another class came in as well. We, for the most part, just checked in and out books.
Today, in Media Aide, I checked-in books with a handheld computer and it was fun. It has been my 3rd time so I am getting faster and faster at it. I am happy because we have nothing to do so I can blog.
Last time in media aide we checked in books and shelfed books and that wa about it. I love my classmates and everything about the class!
-Elizabeth

Today we were supposed to file catalogs into the counter top in the back. However, catalogs were so tight together that we couldn’t fit any in. We started to look at the dates the catalogs were published and look for duplicates. Any of these catalogs were through away. We made two and half trash cans fill, and still haven’t finished cleaning out old ones or filed any new ones. Some of then are super old saying 1998 to 1999!

It was November 7, 06 and I missed my 1st, 2nd, and 3rd period classes. With Media aide being my 3rd period I didn’t go there. We went on a field Simis Elementary for my language arts class. We read a book to 3rd graders and asked them interactive questions. We were working on this for the past month and it was nice to finally present it. The book I written and illustrated is called, To Planet X.
