Everything in this glass display case belongs to my "private collection." And yes, that makes me, like, super, SUPER gay. What I'm bummed about is that I can't seem to find my original 14 books by Baum! I had the entire series in paperback editions from the '80s, with really cool covers. I know they're in the garage somewhere, but for now, this is definitely enough Oz stuff to fill the display. Most people don't even know there were more stories beyond just The Wizard of Oz. They're totally missing out on things like the Patchwork Girl, and Santa Claus making an appearance, and a town of bunnies and a town of pastries, and so many other really bizarre and fun creations.
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Ladies & Bunnies
This is what I did in March, between our Read Across America Alice In Wonderland extravaganza, and April's Poetry Month stuff.
The quote and illustrations above are from the Country Bunny and the Little Gold Shoes by Du Bose Heyward and Marjorie Hack. I thought it perfectly represented Easter/Spring AND Women's History Month because that is one sassy, forward-thinking little bunny.
"Wait and see!"
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : April is Poetry Month
April is National Poetry Month! So what? Well, I'm just saying.
Here's what we did in my library:
Here's what we did in my library:
 |
| I stole the slogan from the Art of Manliness website. Hence the mustache. |
 |
| We have quite a good collection of novels in verse. |
READ ACROSS AMERICA WEEK 2016
I'm just going to dump these pictures here, and assume they're mostly self-explanatory. Basically, I'm so over Dr. Seuss as a theme for Read Across America Week, so I'm doing Alice In Wonderland, and using the Cheshire Cat wearing the Mad Hatter's Hat as a "different cat in a different hat."
 |
| (All artwork by yours truly) |
The Nonfiction section is now the Tulgey Wood...
And look what's lurking at the back...
The Jabberwock! (The lighting in this photo makes it a little hard to see, but in person the drawing is more visible)
On Friday our Alumni Association is hosting an Author Forum of Alumni Authors, and we're inviting everyone back to the library afterward for a Mad Tea Party Reception. Hence, the paper lanterns.
All week long we have daily activities and/or contests. I'll post more pictures and details later. I even have prizes to give out. :)
This easel is positioned just outside the library door, with these fancy "ultra-shape" balloons that cost $6.00 each and are supposed to last all week but dammit if some turd didn't steal one, poke a hole in another, and leave only the blue one intact. And this is just the FIRST DAY.
But it's a learning experience. Next year I will fill the balloons with napalm.
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Curl Up With a Good Book
 |
| "How do YOU curl up with a good book?" |
So this was the last of the January bulletin board displays to go up. My Mom, Super Library Volunteer, put this together, and the slogan was her idea, and I totally love it.
That pug is the BEST.
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Rainy Day Reading
My mom (Library Volunteer Extraordinaire) found the slogan, "It Starts Raining, I Start Reading," so we created this bulletin board in the hallway just outside the library. We had to work fast, because soon we'll have to focus on preparing for Read Across America Week, and some big plans for that.
It was overcast when I took the above photo, and it made the color look super weird.
Above is a nice little alcove the students pass on their way out the door of the library, so it seemed like a good place to remind them to keep their books dry. Those purple things are supposed to be storm clouds. Do they read as storm clouds? I was in a hurry.
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Book Thief Rain Quote
 |
| "She gathered books like clouds and words poured down like rain." |
Working on January displays a little late, and my awesome volunteer Mom went online and found the slogan "It Starts Raining, I Start Reading." So we were working with that, and then I found this great reading- and rain-related quote from The Book Thief by Marcus Zusak, and did some cut and paste to create this display on one of the stack ends.
But wait, there's more cleverness...
In the close-up, look what I used for the streaks of "rain."

BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Star Wars Reads Day 2015
Hopefully these pics will be self-explanatory, because this is another one I'm posting a while after the fact. Good thing I took pictures.
Basically, a few of my fellow library techs in our school district shared that they were doing displays and activities/events for Star Wars Reads Day, which I had never observed before. So I felt like, "Shit, I guess I better add this one to my October file..."
I mean, I wanna be cool. And Star Wars is cool.
All the other techs were submitting requests for these free giveaways some of the new Star Wars books' publishers were doing. I got some cool card thingies with that new droid, BB-8, that punch out and make little stand-ups of the character. I gave those away as part of the "consolation prize" to all the contest entrants who didn't win one of the 3 grand prizes.
Luckily, my high school library has plenty of Star Wars novels, chapter books, even some nonfiction about the vehicles and creatures, etc.
 |
| BTW, one of my library tech friends noticed my error on the sign above, and I quickly fixed it, my cheeks burning with shame. |
The prizes I gave out were:
- A 6' tall cardboard character stand-up of The Force Awakens' Captain Phasma
- New hardcover book Aftermath: Star Wars: Journey To the Force Awakens by Chuck Wendig
- The Darth Vader head bank you see pictured above, which we used as a raffle box during the contest.
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Banned Books Week 2015!
*I'm posting this way after the fact, but don't judge me. Things get really hectic in a school library.*
Every year I struggle a little to make sure the students understand Banned Books Week as much as possible. I know some libraries call it "Intellectual Freedom Week," but usually that's partially for the sake of simplification, and partially because they shy away from anything that might sound controversial. I do NOT shy away from what might seem controversial, plus I like how arresting "Banned Books Week" sounds. It's SUPPOSED to get your attention because it's an important issue!
But it also means you can't be lazy, because you'll probably be explaining the same things to your students all month. (No, we are NOT banning books, yes you MAY check out the books on display because we're celebrating the fact that they are available in OUR library, well- do YOU think one person or group should have the right to decide what YOU have access to and what you do NOT? No, this doesn't mean I'm going to put Fifty Shades of Grey in our school library, etc...)
Most of the stuff I put up this year is stuff I've already posted about, so I didn't post pictures of the old stuff. Instead, here is a link to a few older posts with display ideas for Banned Books Week.

| Several teachers created extra credit assignments based on the lists I sent out of Frequently Challenged and/or Banned Books that are available in our library. I thought that was really cool. :) |

BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Women's History Month 2015
Waaaay back in March, I did some displays for Women's History Month. Why didn't I post this back then? I dunno.
I drew that fancy lady. She was originally for a NaNoWriMo display, but I realized she'd also be great for Women's History. But now I can't use her for NaNoWriMo. Because that would be cheating. Creatively speaking.

BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Halloween 2015
I meant to post these pictures early in October, but things got away from me. So I'm just gonna post them now. I'm kinda bummed that I totally forgot to take pictures of all the OTHER Halloween decorations we put around the library, especially since my library volunteer (Mom) and I really went all-out and did a super great job with it. So you just have to trust me, we should have won an award for "Best Halloween Decorations On Campus." The Attendance Office and the Counseling Office think they're so great, with all their fancy things on windows and hanging from the ceiling...
We'll see how things fall out when the Christmas decorating contest rolls around. We'll just see about all that...

| SSR stands for "Sustained Silent Reading" |
I kept having to put my own book down and send kids back, and when I'd ask them why they weren't doing SSR, many of them had never even HEARD of it, which means their teachers were not only ignoring it, but they weren't even MENTIONING it.
Luckily, our Principal was really good (and patient) about doing reminder announcements and emails, until finally I think most of them are doing it now. (3 months down the road)
 |
| I stole that slogan from somewhere online. I think it's super clever. But I can't take credit for it. I can take credit for the artwork and lettering above, though. Isn't it nice? Why, thank you. :) |
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : November 2015 (cont.)
 |
| NaNoWriMo |
Above is the interior bulletin board version of the NaNoWriMo display I did in the glass case outside the library. I made those big typewriter letters a few years ago, using a silver Sharpie to outline them. I think I just did a Google image search for old-fashioned typewriter letter keys, and copied and pasted into a Word doc, then cropped and enlarged, etc. Really pretty easy.
 |
| National Picture Book Month |
Our new District Librarian, Regina, who is awesome, reminded us all that November is National Picture Book Month, and if any of our libraries have cool picture books, now is the time to promote them. My high school actually has a lot of great picture books, which rarely get used because it's a high school, and because they're located in a far corner, facing the wall. I think the previous library staff purchased them for all the kids who are struggling at very low reading levels, but most of the time those kids are too embarrassed to check out Goodnight Moon or Bread & Jam For Frances.
I used three end-of-stacks display shelves that face out to showcase some of the better picture books I thought would interest our students. Funny ones, and classics, and ones that are geared toward older readers and are more "all ages."
For more info: nationalpicturebookmonth.com
 |
| Staff Favorites |
 |
| Staff Favorites Leaf Template (That's my hulking shadow looming across the page...) |
We immediately started receiving filled-out leaves back, and started cutting them out and posting them on the end of a shelf, with a sign on top to explain what they are. Mom and I both did one, of course.
One of our library regulars already asked for the title I put on mine (The Monstrumologist by Rick Yancey) and checked it out. :)
So... that's November so far!
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : November 2015 NaNoWriMo
I was in a spastic frenzy to put something up in the glass hallway case outside the library, and there is little time between now and when I need to put Christmas stuff up.
So I did a quick NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) display, including the nanowrimo.org website, and some simple explanation of what it is. None of the English teachers I've asked at this school know what it is, yet. But hopefully they'll start getting interested.
 |
| I stole that graphic at the top from somewhere online. It didn't have an artist credited, otherwise I would include that. The typewriter with the green background is from a monthly calendar I had a few years ago. The shield I printed in black and white from the official website, and then had a library volunteer (my aunt!) color the blue background. |
On the official website, they had a brief list of some professionally/traditionally published novels that started out as NaNoWriMo books. Here are a few:
Sara Gruen’s Water for Elephants
Erin Morgenstern’s The
Night Circus
Rainbow Rowell’s Fangirl
and Marissa Meyer’s Cinder
 |
| These typewriters are just clip art printed on cream-colored paper, and then I cut a slit where the paper would come out, and hand-lettered the genre banners on white paper. |
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : October & Halloween
I do love this season, and all things Halloween. Here are some pics of how I've decorated the library:
 |
| Main bulletin board, including quote by Edgar Allan Poe Skelton and tarantula are original things I drew, the rest is vintage Halloween decor, clip art, and a library poster. For the light green and brown "grass," I just cut up some construction paper all crazy-like. |
"Words have no power to impress the mind without the exquisite horror of their reality."
-Edgar Allan Poe
 |
| The cylindrical display cabinet, which I keep unlocked so I can encourage kids to grab books out of it. The raven on top has a tag around its neck that says, "Nevermore." |
 |
| The "Coming Soon" whiteboard, festooned with glowing skulls. (And yes, we DO now have "Blood of Olympus.") |
 |
| Vintage 3D Halloween decorations |
 |
| The green skulls are just clip art printed on colored paper, with orange paper flames, mounted against black paper. |
 |
| I like this poster. It always makes me think of Bradbury's "Something Wicked This Way Comes." |
 |
| These are the windows of my horrible little cave of an office. |
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : March Book Fair & Easter
 |
| This was my idea, with books on the Ferris Wheel, and books as roller coaster train. I just found a good simple carnival silhouette online, and replicated it with banner paper, prefab "books," copy paper, and a big black pen. |
We're having a Scholastic Book Fair the last week of March, so this month's bulletin board decor is a nauseating mix of carnival-y book fair imagery, Women's History (see previous post), and Easter & spring bunnies, etc.
I did a Google image search for "carnival," and "fair," and found some nice & simple ideas. Primary colors, that circus-type font in Word, etc. We printed big fair ticket images on colored paper and cut them out, printed lettering on yellow paper, etc. SIMPLE. Because this is a busy month and shit's gotta get DONE.
 |
| This was my idea, too. Isn't it nice? Doesn't it tie the "fair" theme in nicely? |
And here's the circular glass display cabinet that some of my fellow library techs are jealous of. It is pretty cool. I don't know where it came from.
 |
| Countdown: "11 more days 'til the book fair!" (I update the number each morning) |
We got a cheap little round blackboard for less than $2 at Michael's for the countdown.
 |
| Various little bunny figurines and eggs donated by the previous Librarian who is still my friend, and by my mom. Who is also still my friend. |
 |
| Tough to find rabbit or bunny books in a junior high/high school library. So we have the emotionally scarring Watership Down lurking at the bottom of the display, beneath cheerier titles like Peter Rabbit and Bunnicula. |
 |
| Egg wheel from my mom. That ties Easter in with the fair theme! It's all cohesive. And before you say, "No, it's not! What about that Birding book?" let me interject that birds fit the spring part of our theme. COHESIVE. |
Per reader request, here is the carnival ticket image, which I think I found online searching for free carnival/fair clip art:
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : March is Women's History Month
Did you know March is Women's History Month? Well, it is. So give it up for the lay-deees!
I'd had a hard time finding a visually pleasing poster for it, so I was happy to obtain the one above from the "Diversity Store," HERE.
The World War II woman above is from a free set of historical encyclopedia posters I picked up at some library conference. I cut the commercial stuff off and then my library volunteer aunt created that lovely lady-border around it using flowery stationery. Clever, yes?
We used the nicest pictures from an old calendar of "Women Reading." "The Reading Woman?" Something like that. Then we added appropriate books to the display. Alcott's Little Women, A Break With Charity (Salem Witch Trials) by Ann Rinaldi, Sacajawea by Anna Lee Waldo, and Beyond the Burning Time by Kathryn Lasky.
Women's History ain't always pretty, you guys. Shit happens.
And here's the image I use for a bibliographic bookmark I call "Sugar & Spikes," which features edgier books for edgy girls.
Here's the list of books, all of which are available in our school library:

There's also this, which we put on the smaller bulletin board behind the counter--
Years ago the Librarian and I made these "framed" pics of famous women, just by printing nice pictures out in black & white, and putting a backing frame of black construction paper, then creating labels that say who the women are, and what they're famous for. So we have Jane Goodall, Rosa Parks, and Abigail Adams. It's probably time I added some more ladies to this little gallery.
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : January
 |
| "Fight the CHILL with some steeeamy ROMANCE!" |
January is always tricky when it comes to decorating in the 'brary. You come back from Winter Break and there's that damn Christmas tree and all the garland and snowmen and elves and shit, staring you in the face like an un-flushed toilet.
Luckily I can leave anything that is just wintery and not necessarily Christmasy. So I left up the snowy background paper on the big bulletin board, and the Narnia poster, and just had to figure out something to go on the left side to replace Santa.
I finally came up with the slogan, "Fight the CHILL with some steeeamy ROMANCE!" which is very unlike me because that's my least-favorite genre. But it's been FREEZING in the library the last couple of days, so I've been thinking about COLD and CHILLS.
I printed out some romance book covers, including David Levithan's Two Boys Kissing, plus a gay girl book by Julie Ann Peters, and several hetero romances. I always try to represent everyone.
I cut the flames out of big sheets of red construction paper. Simple.
But every time I look at it, in my head I change it to, "Fight the chill with some stiiiiinky romance!" and then I get the crazy giggles.

| Display cabinet dedicated to "Year of the Horse" |
January 31st is Chinese New Year, and 2014 is the Year of the Horse. So my mom (trusty library volunteer) and I put together a display of horse books in the circular display cabinet. She half-jokingly said I could bring in some ponies from my personal collection, and I was like, "I will TOTALLY do that!!!" I have a shitload of My Little Ponies, but also other types. The crazier the better. (She has asked me in the past if I can ever have too many ponies, and I have said no.)
 |
| Close-up of top shelf of Year of the Horse cabinet. |
I grabbed a book on Chinese Astrology, and found a listing of traits attributed to people born in the Year of the Horse, and those are the words you see on the red-backed cards placed randomly on the glass shelves betwixt various horses & ponies. Calm, independent, cheerful, sociable, curious, popular, generous, confident, amusing, talented, etc.
 |
| That big horse is from the Bratz toy line. It has glittery hooves. The purple pony in front is a special edition My Little Pony designed by artist Junko Mizuno. |
I ended up using an assortment of my more tasteful ponies, for the most part. For example, I refrained from including Strawberry Shortcake's scented horse, "Honey Pie." And I did not include She-Ra's transparent blue winged horse, "Crystal Moonbeam."
 |
| Back of the Year of the Horse display cabinet. |
 |
| This one is from the "Bratz Babyz Ponyz" line. It looks pretty snarky. |
We have these two big black frames I use as bulletin boards, one on each side of the library. It helps break up the monotony of blank white institutional walls. Anyway, we slapped a Chinese New Year poster up on one, which you see above.
Below is the one my mom assembled with online images she found, plus a great Year of the Horse quote. And some intricate Chinese paper cuts we found in a fancy book. It was donated years ago, and I never knew what to do with it because if I allowed students to borrow it, the delicate paper-cut things would have been ruined. So Mom carefully extracted them from the book, and now they can be enjoyed as decor!
So that was January's decorating frenzy. Now it's back to shelving, mending, generating library and textbook fine notices, and doing inventory. GET BACK TO WORK!
BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Banned Books Week 2013!
This post is quite tardy. The library has been very busy. But better late than never, right? Banned Books Week 2013 was September 22-28. I had the library all decorated to support intellectual freedom, and I did presentations about censorship and intellectual freedom for 6 eighth grade English classes. They were all very attentive and polite, and had great questions and participation. Their teacher had them all check out books that had been either banned or challenged, which made for some interesting research coming up with about 200 titles that fit the bill and were currently available in our library.
She gave them an assignment to read their challenged/banned book and take a stance on whether they agreed or not with the book being challenged or banned, and why. Of course she leaned heavily toward influencing them on the side of intellectual freedom.
I really liked how the teacher made it very clear in her paperwork for the students that banning a book means removing it from an entire community so that NO ONE has access to it.
I felt it was totally worth the effort on her part and my part. I loved that the teacher wanted to do such a thorough exploration of a subject that's near and dear to my heart. It gave me the opportunity to talk about my own personal experience with censorship. It's great to see teachers who recognize how important it is to teach kids about the issue, and make sure they understand all the complexities of it. It's not simple or easy.
I ended up having some great conversations with students regarding the reasons (so-called and real) why some people try to ban certain books. Sometimes it was difficult to find the info, which was also a nice research challenge. ;)
Here are some pics of what I put up in the library for Banned Books Week, 2013.

BULLETIN BOARDS & DISPLAY : Halloween 2013
 |
| Vintage Halloween tablecloth used as bulletin board covering. |
My Aunt Wanda gave me this rad bag full of vintage Halloween decorations. We figure they're from the 1950s, or maybe even the '40s. Some of the stuff was never even opened! Anthony and I put some of it up at home, and the rest I took to the library. My mom helped me put everything up, which was totally fun. Thanks, Mom! Thanks, Aunt Wanda!
 |
| Vintage scarecrow as centerpiece of the big bulletin board. (I made the reading tarantula years ago when I worked in the Children's Room of the Santa Ana Public Library.) |
I'm actually ashamed of that half-hearted "WEAVE ME ALONE, I'M READING" slogan. I was in a hurry to come up with something reading-related and also spooky or whatever, and kids were due to come flooding into the library any minute.
 |
| Luckily for me there were TWO of these vintage flying saucer witches, so one is at home hovering over our dining table, and the other is coasting across the library whiteboard. She's bitchin'. |
Then this crepe paper honeycomb spider happened!
 |
| "Kiss my fat black ass!" |
Rubberhead the Skeleton Man hangs out in the library every year. He's surrounded by potions, ravens, a vintage black cat crepe paper thingie, and horror stories.
 |
| Vintage crepe paper honeycomb bats, clip art collage stuff, and spoooooky books! Plus my extended bibliography of horror reading recommendations printed on orange paper. |
 |
| There's that witch, some skull lights, and that sassy black spider... |
 |
| Vintage Halloween tablecloth, vintage crepe paper spider, Maurice Sendak calendar, Chris Van Allsburg glowing pumpkin print from "The Mysteries of Harris Burdick," and Alice In Wonderland Halloween scrapbook paper. |
 |
| I drew that lil' skeleton years ago, and he really needs some new material because he says "The horror… the horror…" every damn year. |
In the picture above, see those two vintage orange and black plastic Halloween decorations? My Librarian gave those to me before she retired. I love them. Thanks, Marilyn!
 |
| The End! |
