Open Morning

MSJ had an Open Morning at the weekend (Sat feb 28th). The library hosted the English Department and was filled with displays of pupils work, class podcasts and a DVD of presentations that were undertaked for Communication Studies.

The library attracted lots of visitors who apprecaited the displays we had up of pupil work and our main display on Barack Obama.

There was a good atmosphere and the sun was shining. We even had some daffodils on the desk, courtesy of the Assistant Librarian.

Open Morning

Today is MSJ Open Morning - so everyone is very busy doing lots of activities including sport, music, drama and science experiments. In the Library we are still in exam preparation mode so we have Sixth Formers and Year 11 pupils who want to get their heads down to do some study. But there are some other pupils in just relaxing and reading books and magazines or working on the computer.

The Library is looking tidy and the Assistant Librarian put up a new display this week on Science as we wanted to publicise some of our new popular science books and our magazines. We subscribe to Flipside, Focus, Cosmos and New Scientist; so hopefully there is something to suit all interests!

The Library is on the main tour route of the school so most of the visitors do come and see us which gives me an opportunity to tell them of all the different services that we offer within school including our Information Literacy programme across the curriculum.
