Collection Stats....what's new? what's old?
OLD BOOKS I've weeded over 1,000 books from the library collection reducing the average age of a book in our collection from 20 years old down to 18 years old. This is a continuing effort to raise the standard of our collection to a more acceptable level. Over this summer FWISD will add many new Follett Shelf ebooks to our collection which teachers and students can read online or on the promethean board. Additionally, we will receive $2,700 in new nonfiction books purchased with Follett "credits". (The district received a grant for Title One schools to decrease the age of their nonfiction collections, based on this large outlay of funds...Library Media was able to extend the same opportunity to the few non Title One schools. Bonus!)
KEEPING TRACK I completly inventoried the library's collection, 10,218 titles are on the shelf.
