Library Service Goals for CAS 2012 (Service)

As the leaders of Library Service, Charity Dowers and I will be planning/organizing the Service program for the duration of our enrollment in 12th grade at OSC. Therefore our goals/plan for the academic year are:

-Limit the number of students in Library Service to 8-10 students to not overcrowd the library and make the workload last long enough until 3:30.

-Divide the students into two groups

Grades 6-8 will be supervised by Charity ( 4 or 5 students no more than 5)

Grades 9-12 will be supervised by Skylor (3 or 4 students, he will personally choose them)

Middle school grades will be in charge of organizing non-fiction books (they are easier to sort because of their numerical placement)

High school grades will be charge of organizing fiction books, ordering the magazines, and updating the library service blog each session. Also take pictures for the blog.

Library Service Daily Routine

  1. Attendance
  2. Separate the two groups and organize what needs to be organized
  3. End the session with a ‘good job’ and ‘thank you’

Library Service First Day *

  1. Speech about library service (maybe take some pictures)
  2. Cover what is expected in Library Service: ATTENDANCES (3 strikes)
  3. Learn names of each student
  4. Explain how pizza party works
  5. Try and set up the service blog

Book Week (Will probably come up with more activities that are “Community-based”

  • More publicity –have the service make a few posters
  • School newsletters, emails
  • Assembly presentations (videos)
  • Manga/Comic Day
  • More reading days (10 minutes)
  • Quotes from famous authors about reading
  • Publish creative writing
  • COSPLAY

Student Reflection/ Student reports

Around the end of November when the first semester is ending we will have students write a short reflection on their time in library service.  Also Charity and I will be writing student reports on the students’ performances in the service. I will write the reports for high school students and Charity will write for the middle school students.

About Skylor Knoll

Hey, my name is Skylor Knoll. I’m 17 and I’m attending The Oversea’s School of Colombo (OSC). I'm currently studying under the IBDP (International Baccalaureate Diploma Program) and I will remain here until I finish my senior year. When I graduate I hope that I will be fortunate enough to be accepted into UBC (University of British Columbia) to study forestry in Canada.
