Librarians - Times are changing!

Library setup!

Today, the kids and I continued setting up the new Library beginning with Non-Fiction. The Series boxes are ALL labelled and the Dewey signs are almost ready. We have decided on Blue for Fiction signage, Red for Non-Fiction and Green for Reference signage. Who would have thought how long it would take to place each Non-Fiction book on the shelves? Lol A great start has been made.
