A Little Self Help

Recently, the 4th grade classes have started looking into the 100’s section of the Dewey Decimal System. I have blogged about this topic before, twice in fact. You can read the other posts here and here. In the past I have focused on the philosophical side of the Dewey 100’s. They always lead to a good discussion with my classes. Today I find myself wanted to share another aspect of the Dewey 100’s, that of psychology and Ethics. In other words the various self help books available for check out in the library. We have quite a few book geared toward your problems and concerns. It is always good to share your feelings with an adult and should be the first step. But, if you need to work up the courage or just want to read up on some difficult subjects these books be just right.

Here are just a few that we have to offer. For a full list come look in the Non-Fiction section of the library under the 150-170’s

I was always an avid reader, even if I wasn't the best reader. I would read book after book often returning to well loved favorites to read again. My favorite genres are Science Fiction and Historical Fiction. I find both the past and the possible future very interesting. When I became a librarian I was very excited by the prospect of sharing my love of books. I quickly discovered that teaching library and technology is much more than reading books. It's sharing information, learning about reliable resources, digital citizenship, computer skills. Being a librarian at St. Philip's also means I teach technology, film editing, 3d printing, and much more. When I'm not reading and teaching library and technology skills you can find me running SPAS Drama Club.
