This has been, hands down, the hardest two years of my career, and the sharpest learning curve&#8211;even counting my first years as a baby librarian who didn&#8217;t know anything, or the year I wound up chairing CLEL back when CLEL didn&#8217;t know anything. But my team is amazing and I feel like I&#8217;ve finally discovered a lot of the tools I need to do the job well, and also have a new opportunity to delegate some tasks that turned out not to fit on my plate.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The short story is I&#8217;m not feeling overwhelmed every day anymore, and really looking forward to the next phase, which will include more reading and thinking and writing about storytime again. Mel&#8217;s Desk is one of the things that has to fall to the bottom of the priority list when I have other responsibilities, but I always miss it, and you, and appreciate your patience with my consistently erratic post schedule. <\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s to blue skies for all of us this summer. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/melissa.depperfamily.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/BlueSkies.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/melissa.depperfamily.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/BlueSkies.jpg\" alt=\"BlueSkies\" width=\"960\" height=\"361\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6216\" srcset=\"http:\/\/melissa.depperfamily.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/BlueSkies.jpg 960w, http:\/\/melissa.depperfamily.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/BlueSkies-300x112.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today is my two-year anniversary of becoming a supervisor and working with a team of storytime providers and early literacy staff at my library!
