[CALIBK12] Query: Split library positions

[Richard Moore]

I don't make it work.? I leave.

That was the decision back in 1991 in Torrance and I resigned and went to Garden Grove -- which still has LMTs in every 7-12 school.? Torrance then apologized and asked me to stay but I told them that the fact that they could consider the idea in an already understaffed district meant I needed to go elsewhere.

Ask them how other districts manage library staffing with the same money -- and back up your question with data.

DataQuest at < http://dq.cde.ca.gov/dataquest/ > allows you to search for professional staffing information.

We need your help!


?


Our district is looking at splitting the 4 remaining high school librarians between two schools each:? one middle school and one high school.? This option is in lieu of the prior plan to send us all?back into the classroom part-time.? Each site has at least one full-time library tech. in place.


?


Our question is, if you are currently split between two schools, how do you make it work?? How is your time split, and what do we need to know for this to be successful?? We are hoping this will only be temporary,?but want to be proactive about the situation.


?


Any advice on how to make a split between two schools successful is needed and appreciated.? I know how busy we all are this time of year...


?


Thank you!
