Overview

Encouraging students to read is an important role for both librarians and educators, but creating reading promotion displays can often be a daunting task. This collection of eye-catching, theme-based, reading promotion displays provides detailed instructions, diagrams and suggestions for 25 different themes, from outer space to under the sea. Each theme includes variations for different age and grade groups, and ideas that range from a single bulletin board to a library-wide extravaganza with contests and parties. Illustrations are provided for every display. Tips for reducing cost and using alternative materials are also included.
