New arrival shelf
At our last committee meeting Mark Rosen suggested something I should have thought of myself: having a shelf to display the new arrivals. This could help those patrons, who visit the library regularly in finding what’s new. However the library is rather short on space, so I could not easily fit in a new shelf for this purpose. Therefore I decided to take down the computer (more specifically the monitor/mouse and keyboard combo) that has been dedicated to be used by visitors, but in reality got very little usage.
From now on, when you enter the library, you will find the new materials right in the center. They are divided to two and half sections. On the left you will find the new novels. This is closest to the door, because these books are the most often sought, so I wanted to make it easy to find them. Then in the center you have the new non-fictions books we got. Finally on the other side you can find all the DVDs we have. This includes new and older items as well. We currently have 22 DVDs, most of them are feature films, and all listed on our DVD page with a link to their respective internet movie database (IMDB) page, release year, length, rating and if available linking to our blog entry on the book or to its trailer on YouTube.
