Since I am nearing the end of my practicum, I discussed final assignments and tasks for the last remaining days. I plan to finish as much of the weeding recommendations as possible and will present the final document to my supervisor on Friday.

Today I helped the Teen Department begin decorating for the Christmas season. The City of McAllen will be holding a Christmas decorating contest across the entire city, allowing all city departments and services to decorate. The library selected to a peppermint gingerbread house theme and each library department will get to decorate as they wish. In the Teen Department, I covered the book shelf ends in brown paper and created two gingerbread house scenes. This took the entire day!
Weekly Reflections:
Decorating for the City's Christmas decoration contest was a lot of fun and was also a great way to relieve stress. Its been a very long semester of work and school so it was fun getting to cut out Christmas decorations while listening to Christmas music and talking with my fellow colleagues. I was reminded that even decorating for the different seasons is part of a librarian's job. It is important that we create a fun and welcoming environment that invites patrons to visit the different areas and peruse the shelves.
