My Project

This project is to get a new library cart for the school library. This year I moved from teaching elementary to the library media specialist in my K-12 school. There are many outdated items that I am slowly working to replace and update.

We currently have an old wooden cart and it's very hard to roll and move around the library.

I have several student workers in the library and they help organize and shelf books. This is a way for students to complete community service hours for graduation. This new cart could help organize and shelf books in a more portable way!
