A slow day

Today the library was closed all day to students because the library was being used for training, so we got a chance to work on getting ready for Teen Read Week next week. We have a lot going on, and it should be fun.


The theme of Teen Read Week this year is "Picture It @ your library," with a focus on how stories can be made visual, so today we put together a display of graphic novels, made everything we need for our book vs. movie voting contest (signs, posters, voting box, ballots), and put together the announcements to advertise the book vs. movie contest as well as the manga lunch with a librarian we're having on Wednesday next week (the Ashburn teen librarian is coming to talk to kids about manga during lunch). Then, next Friday is our big author visit with Kathryn Erskine! I'm excited about that and hope everything goes smoothly!
