We have a large number of volunteers, too. Our volunteer training leaves something to be desired. I know we can improve on our methods. I would be interested in how other libraries train volunteers, too.

Selecting "Reply to All" will send a message to the entire list. --------------------------------------------------------- Hello All: We are starting to amass a greater number of volunteers and we will also be hiring new staff as we move into our new building. But we have noticed that our (very brief) training in shelving needs improvement. We were wondering if anyone has any ideas for tools, worksheets, techniques, etc. that we can use to train and teach new staff and volunteers about the Dewey Decimal System. I have found a few things online but it is very little and not what I was looking for. All help and advice is greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance, Angela Angela K.
