The Library

We had a day of training with our new cataloging client. I realized that I haven't posted any pictures of our beautiful library yet.

     This gives an idea about the campus that the school sits on. At one time, it was an olive orchard. Now it's the most beautifully manicured K-12 campus I've ever seen. I feel lucky to work here everyday I make my way to Naomi Foster library.


I really believe that the library is the heart of any school and this campus seems to adopt that philosophy. Here's what the inside looks like.








      I also work with some amazing women. I've heard more than one administrator refer to them as the "Dream Team." This becomes obvious a few moments after meeting them. Ekin (left) helped me buy a cell phone (no small feet for me). Meric (2nd from right)  and I will be working close. This means she has a much better handle on how things work than me and will be answering my silly questions for a while. Ebru (center) is very knowledgeable about just about everything having to do with the library. Gulten (far right) keeps everything tidy and makes a delicious cup of coffee or tea for everyone each morning.
     That's all for today. It's time for dinner!

  3. Being welcomed into this culture and this job is a gift that I'm trying to accept as humbly as possible. It will come with a set of challenges that will likely be more trying than anything I've ever done which is exactly what I want. I am extremely happy about the surroundings and working with beautiful women isn't too shabby either.

    Melia, you're a brilliant librarian that I've always admired. I'm sure I'll be asking you and everybody else in the cabal for advice on a number of issues I encounter. Also, I like making you jealous. :)
