Designing an eye-catching bulletin board is like doing a billboard for a business. Library patrons and students are consumers--of information--and it is the challenge of librarians and teachers to advertise their "products" to grab the consumers attention. But librarians and teachers often lack the training or time to come up with an ad campaign. Here are 65 tried-and-true bulletin board and display ideas for librarians and teachers. All are highly adaptable--for classroom, school library, and public library use. General directions and suggestions, such as background and letter choices, accompany tips on keeping costs down. Drawings illustrate the ideas, showing you just how to come up with the perfect bulletin board to advertise your "business."Skaggs, Gayle is the author of 'Bulletin Boards and Displays Good Ideas for Librarians and Teachers' with ISBN 9780899508849 and ISBN 0899508847.
