Motueka library has had an extremely busy summer. We have all managed to survive with our good humour still intact! The Summer Reading Programme was very successful with 100% completion. It is such a fantastic programme, not only is it rewarding for all those involved, children, parents and library, it really is lots of fun. The Super-Hero theme was great!

 Sue and I have started the school year with our running shoes on! We have 5 pre-schools we visit regularly, a local school sends a class once a week and another school we visit twice a term, with other schools planning to visit during the year.

 

The library has of course been inundated with Wifi and computer users, being peak tourist and apple season. We have been trialing various systems, with varying success. Having restricted areas available to only 12 laptops at any one time, and having users book in to use the tables has made marked improvement in the management of the library space.
