One of the many jobs of an assistant librarian is creating and maintaining the library bulletin board. It is a good idea to keep a file with lots of ideas so that a beautiful bulletin board, an interesting bulletin board, or an informative bulletin board is very close at hand.
Speaking of hands, using a visual cue and a play on words is a good way to create an eye catching bulletin board. This particular board has the turkey's tail feathers made of colorful hands with the caption, "Get Your Hands on a Good Book" to accompany them.
This particular bulletin board uses the idea of an apple peeling to go with the caption, "Reading Just for the Fun of it is so A * Peel * Ing." Bright and colorful apples capture the eye. The dividers between the A and Peel and the Peel and Ing are apples in the process of being peeled. Simple touches can make a big difference in the a * peel of a board.
Library bulletin boards should also promote reading. While libraries promote good study habits, offer research assistance, give access to computers and environments conducive to studying, and offer guidance and help in classroom assignments, the main nature of a library is to provide materials that will nurture the joy of reading.
