Fairy Tale Collection Maintenance, The Seattle Public Library
April - June 2010
Competencies demonstrated:
I weeded the children’s folk and fairytale section at the Northeast branch as part of a for-credit directed fieldwork. The process primarily included weeding for condition, circulation, and relevance. During this fieldwork, I also assisted in the selection of children’s literature and board books. Read more about this process at the blog I maintained about my experience!
Competencies demonstrated:
- Builds a collection designed to meet the needs and interests of children
- Maintains the quality and relevance of the collection through ongoing evaluation of the currency and physical condition, and recommends materials for acquisition or deselection
