visit your local public library!!

visit your public library today!

In order to promote visiting the local public library I decided to create a hall display that gives students a ton of information about their two closest libraries. I include the names, photos of the library, a map, and all the events for the next couple of months. I hope students are excited about both the school library and the public library. 
Sharon from the Sweet Branch Library here in the avenues is amazing with outreach. Some comes up during all of our Ensign Library events, with fliers, handouts, and sometimes free books for everyone! She also comes up before the end of the school year to get the students excited about the summer reading program!
Another incentive to have students visit the public library is the Ensign Treasure Chest. Students who check out books from the Sweet Branch Library, can simply tell the checkout they are a student here and they will be given a special superhero cutout. They can bring it to me here in the library to exchange for a prize from the treasure chest. Students who visit their local branch library can bring me in their receipt from checkout.
