Overview

There are many resources for bulletin board ideas, but only this resource offers over 200 bulletin board ideas for the underserved high school audience. The clever and creative bulletin boards presented in this sourcebook help students gain understanding, inspiration, and amusement—while encouraging reading and library use at the same time. Each innovative idea is simple enough for the busy high-school media specialist or teacher to generate and includes a handy list of materials. Plus many of the ideas are clearly illustrated to ensure successful execution. While the concepts are aimed specifically at the high-school level, most can be adapted for use at a different grade level. Media specialists from all over the world contributed their ideas to this book, which fills the void for bulletin board ideas aimed at older students. Its creative suggestions will transform any high-school bulletin board into a practical teaching tool!

At last! Hundreds of bulletin board ideas designed specifically for secondary school librarians are readily accessible in one volume. The inspiration comes from a web site devoted to bulletin boards for Grades 7-12. Basic practical tips suggest ways to liven up displays by using three-dimensional materials such as corrugated cardboard or wallpaper. Ideas focus on information students need to know as well as the promotion of reading and library services. Chapters divide the concepts into common topics such as seasons, reading promotion, and cultural diversity. Many times the suggestions come with a list of facts to choose from, adding versatility to the designs. The most exciting chapters promote the use of Big6O research skills, the responsible use of technology, and interactive bulletin boards to challenge high school students. One whole chapter is devoted to wonderful quotations about the value of literacy, libraries and books. The appendix contains a calendar listing all kinds of things to celebrate-from author's birthdays to the first patent given for chewing gum. This book has enough ideas to keep library bulletin boards fresh and stimulating for a long time. The table of contents contains enough detail to help locate a particular idea easily. For any secondary librarian who is weary of having to convert an idea from an elementary source to one appropriate for high school students, this book is a must-have. Highly recommended. - Library Media Connection
