I have kept an annotated journal of all the books I've read during my library
career. The kids love it; it helps refresh my memory when creating book talks; the
English teachers have used it to select summer reading for their students.

Subject: Re: Reading on the Job
I would like to pick up on the posts by Holly, Naomi and Lynda and explore the
things we can do with
the books that we read - either on the job or in our own time. (I don't think I
read an adult book
all the time I was working in my school library.)
I've lost some of the emails but these are the suggestions that I can recall...
lists/displays of new books
best new YA books in the library,
top 10 books,
excel spreadsheets of genres,
blogs
reviews
reading programs
book trailers
booktalks
emailing teachers with titles that support their teaching
What are some other ideas? I will ask my Australian colleagues and I will post a
hit.
