Get your holiday reading here!


By Melanie Muir

Thanks to Melanie from Wairarapa College for sharing this lovely display.
Here are her comments:
'All it took was an old shower curtain with sky and clouds – plain blue plastic works fine, with paper or cotton-wool clouds. The banner was cut from a white plastic supermarket bag.
The rest is just cardboard cut-outs and fake turf, with a few artificial flowers.
There was much discussion by the boys with an engineering bent as to the plane’s capability of remaining airborne with the banner! At least it got them looking at the display…..'

Slide into Winter .. Read a Good Book!


By Andrea Garcia
Despite the glare on the glass cabinet you can clearly see the fun these penguin bookworms are having tumbling down their snow-covered slope! I'm sure they will inspire the children to take a few books home for the holidays - the penguins at the bottom of the display are offering some excellent suggestions!
Thanks Andrea and have a lovely holiday!

Warm up your holidays with these Romance titles..


By Sherry Cortes
Light the fire and snuggle down with a good romance! That's the invitation from Sherry!
This is what she says:
'Hello from the United States! My name is Sherry Cortes, and I am the reference librarian at Savannah Technical College, a small technical school in Savannah, Georgia. We don’t have much room for displays, but I work with what we do have and try to make each month a different theme. This month is a romance for the holidays, with romance books—we had gotten in a shipment of Zane books which inspired the display, but those were checked out before I had a chance to even put them up, so I found other romance novels on our shelves.
It keeps things interesting here to have a little display, and there has definitely been an increase in book checkouts since I started doing this'.

Thanks for sharing this inviting display Sherry - have a wonderful Christmas!
