ETL503 - Weeding

FROM JANUARY 2ND

In the last week of school, last year now, I helped the librarian conduct some end of year weeding. She chooses this time as she feels it is the only time when she can close the library without impeaching on student and teacher needs.

She uses two criteria: physical condition and age.

Books that are no longer appealing or relevant are discarded. They are put in the dumpster. It took all my will power not to resuce these books for my own personal collection.

I think getting rid of books is going to be the hardest thing for me to do.
