For the elementary or middle school librarian (or the classroom teacher) looking to encourage literacy, this volume provides detailed ideas for promoting reading and encouraging students to learn about and use the library. The work begins with practical ideas to market library services, including curriculum suggestions such as lessons to teach the Dewey Decimal System. A second section focuses on economical ideas for decorating library spaces and various themes for reading programs as well as instructions for carrying these themes school-wide. Numerous patterns for use in the various displays and suggested surveys to fine-tune library programs to the needs of a specific student body are also included.

From Booklist:
Geared to elementary-school librarians and teachers, this book presents ideas for marketing reading and the school or classroom library. Divided into two sections, the book begins with some general ideas, including contests, student book reviews, and communication with parents. Dewey decimal lessons and curriculum connections are also included in this section. The remaining two-thirds of the book covers marketing strategies utilizing displays and reading themes. These ideas could be used by both librarians and classroom teachers to promote reading and are divided according to theme. Approximately 40 themes are offered, providing ideas for bulletin boards, displays, and slogans. Most ideas include patterns and directions as well. A good basic resource for anyone needing ideas to promote reading to elementary students. --Shauna Yusko
