We want the library to have a nice, welcoming, calm atmosphere and so we just use one entrance so people are not walking through. We have 60 seats altogether, so once the library is full we will operate a one person out/one person in system.  There will be a flip chart at the entrance so when the library is full you will see a FULL sign and just need to wait. We expect people to be reading, working, drawing, etc.  Please do not come in to eat and if you just want to have a chat you will need to use the other seating areas around the school.   Thank you Ms Brown & Ms Wallace
