I agree that this is a great question, but my problem is that I don't have
classes coming in on a regular basis. I do, however, have "regulars" who
come to the library everyday but they all wear uniforms and no name tags
☺so unless someone checks out a book, it is pretty hard to discover her
name. I recognize faces but I struggle to put names with faces and that
makes building rapport a bit harder.

Wow, is this a great question! I work with high school students and I’ve
found I have the most success building rapport before school, during break
or between classes, at lunch, etc. contexts in which neither the students
nor I have specific tasks we are working on. I think learning every
students name is important – I still haven’t been successful at it, but it
is the quickest most specific thing I think we can do to gain rapport with
students.

Hi everyone,
Can anyone share if you do any activities or anything on a regular basis
to build rapport with students who come to the library for weekly classes?
I'm open to ideas from a librarian perspective.
Thanks,
