Home  Initiatives Kids! Intro
Dear Colleague:
Your library director would like to boost the library's statistics and has asked you to attract more kids into the library. . .
You've recently renovated your library and want to let the community you serve know about it. . .
The composition of your community has changed and you want newcomers to know what services you offer. . .
You are looking for some fresh suggestions to tweak your library's services to children - to keep it a "cool" place for them.
Any of these scenarios sound familiar?
ALSC's Kids! @ your library® Advocacy Campaign may be just the ticket. The campaign has been built by children's librarians and other experts, using feedback from practitioners in the field and kids from across the country. Grammy-nominated singer/storyteller Bill Harley has given us a sound to rally around. Best known for his illustrations for The Library Dragon, Michael White delivers visuals for a poster and bookmark. Snappy logo graphics, tons of ideas, samples to customize, and more can be found in the toolkit. Everyone - from novice to experienced librarian - should find something here that they can use.
Jump in - use what you want. Customize it for your needs. And, if you have suggestions, we'll be glad to hear them! This is a multi-year campaign and we plan to continue to develop it. After all, there really is "So much to see. So much to do. @ your library®!"
Sincerely,
Ellen Fader
2005-2006 ALSC President
and
Stephanie Bange
Chair, Kids! @ your library®
