SuggChangesLibrary

Student suggestions for improving the library media center.

 * //Notes and comments from Ms. Boltjes are in red.//
 * 1) TV with game systems (I don't think game systems are really helpful for research.)
 * 2) More TV's (I would like to have at least one more! As soon as we can afford it and work out the wiring, I will try to get one.)
 * 3) More couches (There isn't enough room at this time.)
 * 4) More books (Not enough) (I agree! I wish I had more money for books!)
 * 5) Put fish in the aquariums (Those are terrariums that Mrs. Holstein's classes provide. No animals of any kind!)
 * 6) More sports books ( We have 228, and I plan to order more)
 * 7) More guitar books ( We have 38. Please suggest specific topics or titles for additional books.)
 * 8) Books about metal music (80's and 90's) (I will try to find some. Please suggest specific topics or titles.)
 * 9) We want to be able to talk (not very loud) normal. (If the people at the next table cannot hear you, then it is OK to talk. )
 * 10) Allow more than 3 people at a table. (Three people at a table really does work better. Almost everytime we have 4 people, things get too loud! Sorry, This is one guideline I am not planning to change, but thanks for suggesting it.)
 * 11) Allow 4 people at a table. It would help everybody. (See answer to suggestion #10)
 * 12) More cooking books (We have 122. Please suggest specific titles or topics.)
 * 13) Have flat screen tv's because of the news and educational movies (See suggestion 2.)
 * 14) More teen magazines (I will consider this when I place my periodical order next fall.)
 * 15) More books in Spanish (I plan to order some. Please suggest specific titles.)
 * 16) Lots of mystery books (I try to order some new mystery books every year. Are there any authors or titles you would like to see?)
 * 17) Show the news all day in the library (This is an excellent suggestion. As soon as we can afford another TV, I can figure out the wiring, etc., I plan to implement this one! Thanks!)
 * 18) Books about livestock (cattle, etc.) (Another great suggestion. I didn't realize our collection was so limited. I will order some with my next books order. Check back soon!)
 * 19) Books about turkey hunting (Thanks for the suggestion. I didn't know students were interested in that topic. I will try to find something!)
 * 20) More historical fiction books (We have 255, and I will be ordering more. Let me know if you have specific topics or titles.)
 * 21) More how to draw books (We have 11, and I will be ordering more. Let me know if you have specific topics or titles.)
 * 22) More fantasy books (We have 325, and I will be ordering more. Let me know if you have specific topics or titles.)
 * 23) More forensics books (We have 4. Do you want fiction stories or true cases?)
 * 24) More love story books (We have 149, and I will be ordering more. Let me know if you have specific topics or titles.)
 * 25) More future/sci fi books (We have 226, and I will be ordering more. Let me know if you have specific authors, topics or titles.)
