I'm currently in the process of inventory and weeding. Why both, you might ask? Well, as I go along scanning my books, I very often come across a book which looks like it has been here since our school was built. (1963) With old titles, such as "Disco King", a red light often often goes off and I check the card to see the last time the book was taken out. When you are dealing with a limited budget as I am, you sometimes have to keep that very, very old copy of "Gulliver's Travels" or "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn" because it is a classic book. This list can also be found on the Teacher-Librarians page of this blog.
