Over the week end I was able to put together a Black History poster for the Library. Last week I created a bibliography of books we own and one of the pages pulled and displayed them. They displayed the poster by the front desk today and brought attention to some of the resources we have. I also created a "Make and Take" for Valentines Day. I put materials into baggies that children can take home and make a valentine. They are put into the children's section where children help themselves. I also display a finished valentine. Tomorrow when the children come for story hour, I will remind them to go upstairs and look for them. The staff tries to provide activities that children can take with them since childrens programs are slim during school months.
Today I also attended a meeting at the school for their PARP program. We discussed the role the community library will play in encouraging families to visit the library during the schools program. During their family fun night we will be providing bookmarks and flyers with our months activities and applications for families to fill out if they want a library card. Yomorrow we will also begin going to the school library talking with fourth grade sharing a video tour of The Community Library. We will give them a flyer with all of the winter break activities and events this month. Some of the students already are part of our Battle of the Books and chess club that meets at The Community Library.
I started a brochure today also for Women's History Month and will finish it tomorrow for printing for March. Quite a lot going on at The Community Library.
