Circulation definitely fluctuates, however, so having those cubbies directly underneath each bin has come in handy for temporary overflow. We're looking at moving the entire youth picture book collection to theme bins in the next span of time, which is in part due to the success of this trial.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02822088574795909869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124163029230555324.post-63046678081191097902018-10-17T13:59:13.041-05:002018-10-17T13:59:13.041-05:00How has this project turned out for you now that w...How has this project turned out for you now that we're a few years out?

I encourage you to think about all three of these as you consider the best ways to incentivize your program as you make visits.

Even though we asked all participants when they signed up last year if they (and their parents/guardians) were ok with having them display their names as having participated (and explained this as best they could) and won't include anyone who didn't sign that waiver, it still worries me a bit that this may scare some kids away, or some families who prefer to fly under the radar. I also worry it sets up the expectation in kids' heads that their library use isn't private, which is not a takeaway I want them to have going into adulthood!

That's admittedly a large age range, but it was a necessity because of our staffing levels and our desire to offer programs for kids throughout that full range. If your library can support multiple programs throughout the month, it might work best to separate by K-2 and grades 3-5.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02822088574795909869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3124163029230555324.post-49957475325948056632018-03-27T14:40:36.824-05:002018-03-27T14:40:36.824-05:00What age do you consider school age?
