Circ desk vs. executive desk - We compromised on the circulation desk to save money, and I thought exec desks would at least make up for the work space I would need, since I would not have a separate work area. If I could have a do-over, I would get a smaller desk (okay, maybe two small desks) instead of an “executive” desk. These are so intimidating looking and just god-awful for a school library. Plus they elicit all kinds of envious comments from other admins and teachers :( I would also not put it by the entrance. I’ve managed to fill my desk with books and bins but they still feel oversized.
