Creative Ideas for Promoting Reader Services | NoveList. We collect great ideas for promoting readers services in libraries. Here are just a few of our favorites! Have one to add? Feel free to send it along. Give each staff member their own stock of small cards to hand out to patrons when they're doing in-person RA. Have one side of the card blank for writing down the call numbers of books, and on the other side have the card filled out with the librarian's name, branch, and maybe even their photo.
This article explains ideas for making books part of every program you do. Start a series of Staff Picks posts on your blog; it helps readers connect with your staff! Partner with book clubs in your community by offering to host "Booked for Dessert" nights in your library. Want to submit other ideas for consideration? NoveList Search Strategies | NoveList. Use our search strategy handouts to tackle challenging reader questions and library scenarios. In each Search Strategy we present a common scenario that you face as a librarian, reader, or parent, and offer several ways to use NoveList to find the books you need.

Long Island Pre-K Initiative / School Readiness Playbook. This Playbook is a compendium of the latest thinking and best practices on community-level collaborative efforts to increase school readiness for young children.

These players may be in law enforcement or libraries; be in school or retired; be members of a faith community or health care professionals. The Playbook includes information about how each community member can contribute. Specifically, it covers: what school readiness is and why it matters; how communities can work together to increase school readiness; how school readiness is a "win" for each potential player; actions diverse players and allies can take; examples and advice from communities successfully working together; a case study of Westbury, New York’s school readiness efforts; ongoing issues and recommendations; links to research, reports and over 150 web sites.

It’s been an immensely rewarding 16 years of blogging here at Seven Impossible Things Before Breakfast (that makes the site downright elderly in blog years), but I’m here today to say I’m clearing the coffee mugs, wiping the table, and closing up the breakfast nook. Blogging here at 7-Imp has always been a labor of love, my hobby on the side.
But I find that I have simply run out of the bandwidth to post (and just keeping up with blog-related email became a lot like a full-time job). It has truly been a struggle lately to find the time.

As librarians and information experts, GSLIS students, faculty, and alumni are driven to help others find answers.
Frequently on the front lines of social justice, they work to defend First Amendment rights, to overcome barriers to literacy, and to address the global digital divide that separates those with access to information from those without it. Making Membership Worth It I voted in my first ALA election today. So, consider this entry my big "I voted" sticker. I'm actually quite proud of myself. At GSLIS, we believe that open and unfettered access to information is the bedrock of democracy. We invite you to come to our dynamic campus and experience Simmons for yourselves.
