[LM_NET] SHARE: Reading Promotional for your school

[Amy Watkins <amywatkinsreads@YAHOO.COM>]

Tomorrow we are starting a reading promotional that you may want to use as well.   
Since February is Library Lovers Month and March is Reading Month, we are combining 
the two themes by having a used book donation which will in turn provide the books 
for a school wide Book Crossing endeavor.  I purchased lots of penny candy (about 
$30 worth)  and for each book donated, the student/or faculty member gets a piece 
of candy.  After the books have been "donated" to the library, I will lay them out 
on tables in the library for all to come get one or two to read.  The idea is to 
read the "free" book and then pass it along into the community as a Book Crossing 
book.  (Leaving a book in a public place so that another may pick up and read - 
thus sending the book on an adventure of its own.  The Book Crossing motto is to 
make the world a library.)  I'm excited to get started and see what happens!
