Excellent Library in Use
At Summerville Elementary
By VIRGINIA BONEY,
Principal, Summerville Elementary School
We are fortunate in our school in that we have a well
equipped, functioning elementary library.
our library will seat 75 stu
dents. There is a storage room
and a work room adjacent.
Our assistant principal, Mrs.
John T. Stubbs, Sr., has her office
here and acts as full-time li
brarian.
We have 1,979 children’s books
which we have bought and an
additional 2,000 books on loan
from the Cherokee Regional Li
brary. Recently, we have added
150 paper-bound science book
lets. We subscribe to 18 chil
dren’s magazines and 12 profes
sional magazines. Our library
also contains 40 albums of rec
ords and 147 additional single
records. We have a library of 466
film-strips —as you will note,
this is our audio-visual center.
Film strip machines, record play
ers and projectors are checked
out from this central location.
Each of the 27 classes has a
regular weekly or bi-weekly pe
riod in the library which is used:
(1) to teach library science at
the level indicated; (2) as a
story hour; (3) in selecting and
checking out books.
The library is always available
to the students for reference
work, individually or in groups.
The children may check out
books individually or a room may
check out 35-40 books for a room
circulating library with their
own library personnel function
ing in their room. The children
select the books to be put in
their own room libraries.
The fourth and fifth grade
students learn to use the card
catalog. The Dewey - Decimal
system of cataloging is used.
Fifth grade students (all of
them) are given an opportunity
to work in the library, checking
books in and out, classifying
books and replacing them on the
shelves.
We feel our library will:
1. Develop a love for reading.
2. Improve reading habits.
3. Teach some library science.
4. Develop an appreciation for
good literature.
5. Develop an interest in peri
odicals.
6. Teach the use of the library
as a reference resource.
When you are in our school,
feel free to visit our library and
see where your children spend
part of their time.
