It's harder with some more niche books, but Holi, Christmas, Eid, Rosh Hashannah all get some display in our library 12:28:09 From Makeba Dixon-Hill to Everyone: @Christi @Hannah @Glennis @Lauren, thanks! 12:28:16 From Marina to Everyone: We did a display with books about Santa and had a mini-mailbox where kids put in their letters to Santa (which were actually mailed off!) 12:28:34 From Makeba Dixon-Hill to Everyone: OMG @Marina, so cute. Ya'll are amazing 12:28:36 From Valerie Moss to Everyone: There are so many great ideas for displays in this chat!! 12:28:36 From Yoly Avella to Everyone: Are fiction and nonfiction books kept in separate book displays? 12:28:38 From Christi Sommerfeldt to Everyone: A “Thing” display with books that have hands on the cover :o 12:28:40 From Bertha Coleman to Everyone: Such a vast array of wonderful ideas. Looking forward to reviewing this later as well. 12:28:43 From Aydin Kwan to Everyone: Here's another interactive display we did. Messages of kindness, resilience, and hope: https://www.instagram.com/p/CaV6eeDl9Z7/ It's not really a readers advisory display, but we use the same space. 12:28:46 From Kerisa Shorthouse to Everyone: Jeffrey, with religious holidays, I tend to go with a) Americanized/Federal holidays that may be connected to a religion or b) a variety of religious holidays associated with a particular season. 12:28:52 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: Yes - so many great ideas here! I will send the chat transcript with the recording and slides. 12:29:13 From Megan Hellwig to Everyone: For last Black history month, I did a "We are the West" display and highlighted cowboys, ranchers, and other black pioneers to give it an Arizona, western take. This year, I want to do scientists, engineers, inventors. 12:29:23 From Bertha Coleman to Everyone: Thank you!! 12:29:33 From Jenny Jackson to Everyone: @julie Edwards thank you! 12:29:38 From Carla Hollar to Everyone: We've been told we can't have ANY religious/holiday displays. No Christmas, Easter or Hanukkah. Supposedly that gives people a "rest" from seeing it everywhere else. I miss it/ 12:29:39 From Raivynn Smith to Host and Panelists: There's also a theme for Black History Month every year - this year is Black Resistance! 12:29:40 From Jennifer Schorr to Host and Panelists: We do a Happy Birthday display for authors who have birthdays that month. 12:29:49 From Roxanna Garcia to Everyone: @Thank you Julie! 12:29:52 From Elizabeth Denten to Host and Panelists: I found Goodreads a great resource for a long list of themed books for niche themes. I compare that list with what we have our library. 12:29:55 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: ...I don't think it works that way, Carla. You've been informed wrong, methinks 12:29:55 From Yvette Salomon- Hamilton to Host and Panelists: So many GREAT ideas! 12:30:07 From Carol Polhemus to Everyone: Authors we are thankful for - November 12:30:12 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: Annalise & Carla I think it depends on the library. 12:30:28 From Carol Polhemus to Everyone: Easiest display ever - Check out what your neighbors are reading 12:30:28 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: International Crafting/Hobby Month for January 12:30:32 From Yvette Salomon- Hamilton to Everyone: LOVE all these ideas! 12:30:32 From Amy Smith to Everyone: We don't do holiday book displays because people want to check all the books out and it leaves sad bare displays. 12:30:32 From Megan Hellwig to Everyone: https://www.facebook.com/KirkBearCanyon/photos/pb.100064517989987.-2207520000./3093940914185942/?type=3 12:30:33 From Aydin Kwan to Everyone: I think religious holidays really depends on your community. Our community is very religiously diverse, so we've never gotten a complaint. 12:30:48 From Debbie Updegraff to Host and Panelists: @christisommerfeldt, we combine them. Depending on what the topic is. 12:30:55 From Elizabeth Eaton to Everyone: Our previous seasonal/holiday books collections are now a single collection called 'Celebrate'. 12:30:58 From Cali Getson to Everyone: Our system lets us do Christmas but we have to have the same size display for Hanukkah, and Kwanzaa 12:31:17 From Mary Eckles to Everyone: We just run out of holiday books around the holidays! 12:31:36 From towanda to Everyone: we do also 12:31:41 From Sharon Sullivan to Everyone: Most of our displays are vertical shelf end-caps. How can we incorporate props into something like that? 12:31:42 From Janice Montalvo to Everyone: We came up with, "Water you reading.?" It is a display with books that have water involved, either on the cover or the book has water as part of the story. We created rainclouds and rain cascading around the display. Was fun to put together. 12:31:48 From Jeffrey Rivera to Everyone: @Patricia - @ Kerisa - Both make sense. Bettet to choose rather neutral holidays while equal representing. Polarizing subjects but relevant. Witchcraft holidays? 12:31:48 From Debra Schneider to Everyone: @Margo, Faithe's reminder to make sure ALL displays have a variety of voices in the authorship and characters can allow you to provide services to LGBTQIA+ patrons without a specific "here is gay info!" that would upset your board and violate its rules, right? 12:31:51 From Megan Hellwig to Everyone: I have a "Seasonal Books" display in Children's because I can incorporate any holiday, theme, current event 12:31:52 From tsh99627 to Everyone: 👏👏👏👏 12:31:58 From Stephen Young to Everyone: oh we're going there huh 12:31:59 From Caitlin Beach to Everyone: We tend to do more "winter" or "holiday" than specifically "Christmas" etc. There are ways to do holiday displays that do not scream on particular one. Also, we try more to feature collections that aren't already circulating as much. 12:32:00 From Katie Coppola to Everyone: we do black history but with it based on this years theme but we use all books all the time 12:32:03 From Amy Smith to Everyone: End-cap displays: Command hooks are removable and will hold a pretty good weight. 12:32:13 From Carla Siqueiros to Everyone: I like to find trends in covers. I did a "looking away" for historical fiction because every new book we have gotten for the last year has the cover character looking or walking away. For romance we featured covers with characters back to back 12:32:20 From towanda to Everyone: Love the hoildays 12:32:25 From Mary Eckles to Everyone: I do "Hop into Reading" bunny book display for Easter 12:32:27 From Mary Schons to Everyone: hear hear! 12:32:30 From Kayla Record to Everyone: I have done a #blackauthorsmatter display and displayed older and newer POC authors 12:32:37 From Debbie Updegraff to Everyone: Same, we never keep enough of the holiday books, like Christmas, Halloween, etc. around long enough to do a display. 12:32:46 From Sloane Clark to Host and Panelists: We have a seed library display. 12:32:49 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: I've also gotten compliments from patrons that we don't do "holiday" displays. 12:32:50 From Valerie Moss to Everyone: One of my favourite displays was a Tournament of Books (Junior Fiction), where top circulating junior fiction books were paired together, and kids got to vot on their favourite, until there was a winner. 12:32:51 From Debra Schneider to Everyone: @Elizabeth, "Celebrate" is awesome. Is it only done in Dec or at any time of the year? 12:32:51 From Abina Quashie to Everyone: Yes Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago 12:33:20 From Patricia Shaw to Everyone: I think the hardest for some holidays is the lack of books published on those holidays, but I try my best 12:33:25 From Kelly Ribeiro to Host and Panelists: Amen- 12:33:29 From Sharon Sullivan to Everyone: Amy Smith, thank you! That's a great idea 12:33:31 From Ronne Jones to Everyone: Military display with different contributors such as African Americans, women, Native Americans that contributed over the years 12:33:33 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: Readers Advisory for All has great resources to help keep displays and RA diverse. http://raforall.blogspot.com/ 12:33:33 From Debbie Updegraff to Everyone: Yes, Patricia! 12:33:36 From Kristin Readel to Everyone: My assistant is particularly good at highlighting diverse holidays. Feel especially important with our predominantly white demographic 12:33:36 From Audrey Swartz to Everyone: I tried to do an Orange Shirt day display, for residential school children, and got shut down hard because it isn't a nationally supported thing... 12:33:39 From Aydin Kwan to Everyone: Yeah, our library celebrates Diwali but we do it through decorations more than book displays. 12:33:41 From Carmen Clark to Host and Panelists: I can't seem to save the chat. Could you make that available afterward. So many great ideas for displays. Thank you. 12:33:43 From Deana Hale to Everyone: Civil Rights books 12:33:56 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: Everyone will get a copy of the chat with the recording and slides! 12:34:02 From Em Thomas to Everyone: "Guacamele" 12:34:11 From Monique Phillips to Everyone: @Valerie Moss, I agree, that is very sad! @Margo 12:34:12 From Aimee Kenyon to Everyone: How are you all with blending displays due to limited space? Meaning having from littles through adult books together? Any tips on how to balance it so it's not "too kiddish" or "too boring"? 12:34:13 From Marissa Wacholder to Everyone: Oh man 12:34:24 From John Davis to Everyone: Fielding, what were you thinking? 12:34:31 From Jenny Jackson to Everyone: being a small library we don't always have the funds for all the wonderful books but we sometimes borrow from local library for our displays just to bring the books to our patrons 12:34:45 From Timothy Stoessel to Everyone: British people have no idea about Mexican food lol 12:34:46 From Sonya Williams to Everyone: For January I did a "Choose your house and see how it reflects your personality!" display= Each house from Harry Potter has assigned movies, books, music, etc. according to the traits of the house: Gryffindor=Brave Courageous Determined Items Gryffindors Will Love: • DVD Against the Current • DVD Ruth • DVD Tina • Why courage matters : the way to a braver life / John McCain with Mark Salter. 179.6 MCCAIN • Night Wiesel, Elie • The Apprentice Witch TEEN NICOL, JAMES • Girl in the Blue Coat TEEN HESSE, MONICA • The boys in the boat 797.123 BROWN • I am Malala : the girl who stood up for education and was shot by the Taliban / Malala Yousafzai with Christina Lamb TEEN BIOGRAPHY YOUSAFZAI, MALALA • The diary of a young girl : the definitive edition / Anne Frank BIOG FRANK, ANNE 12:34:52 From Masha Velichko to Everyone: Oh yes... I remember seeing this episode for the first time 12:35:11 From Kara Sabbagh to Everyone: That's interesting I've never seen a house display like that before 12:35:21 From Leigh Ann Williams to Everyone: Aimee, our university library is small and has a similar problem. We like to mix kid's books with nonfiction and DVDs so that there's something for everyone! 12:35:24 From Caitlin Beach to Everyone: I think it's time we as library people try to move away from Harry Potter, there's much better and more diverse YA out there 12:35:32 From Danielle Taulman to Everyone: I hear that 12:35:34 From Em Thomas to Everyone: I agree Caitlin 12:35:35 From John Davis to Everyone: @Caitlin Diane Duane~ 12:35:35 From Helen Li to Everyone: Depending on the community Christmas displays can be very exclusionary. I would actually argue that in areas where people say that "well everyone here celebrates Christmas" that maybe those are areas where non-Christians feel even more excluded. Of course, not all non-Christians mind but I've definitely met people who are adamant that Christmas is NOT universal. 12:35:35 From Courtney Floyd to Everyone: For Hispanic Heritage Month, I used the flag of each author I featured and just hung the flags next to the author and the book. 12:35:38 From Catherine Adedokun to Everyone: How about Career books display. 12:35:49 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: @Helen: Yes 12:35:56 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: Agreed on Harry Potter, it can end up making people uncomfortable, especially if they're queer 12:35:59 From Amanda Hayes to Host and Panelists: Blending could be great. If your theme allows nonfiction, remember that sometimes histories, science books, etc. aimed at younger audiences are great for adults who didn't get a great exposure to that subject in school, or who have been out of school a while! Kid books explain things so clearly that they deliver great fundamentals! 12:35:59 From Sonya Williams to Everyone: I get that. 12:36:11 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: It's still a cute thing! Just hard to balance that. 12:36:14 From Debbie Updegraff to Everyone: We have a fairly large area in a central rotunda type spot for some of the displays. The childrens have two corners, so it take a fair amount of books. I generally focus on picture books, but it is challenging to get a general enough theme that I can keep filled up for 2 weeks. Oh, also things that we have checked in. 12:36:32 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: I've been thinking about doing a display of books to read if you liked Harry Potter 12:36:46 From Mary Eckles to Everyone: Oops, I have an Own Voices display up in JUV this month 12:36:48 From Elizabeth Eaton to Everyone: @debra Schneider We use Celebrate all year! 12:36:54 From Alyssa Cosby to Everyone: I think that is a good idea, Julia 12:36:55 From Natalie Korsavidis to Everyone: We have one weekly display and three to four biweekly displays. Staff gets assigned weeks. 12:36:59 From Makeba Dixon-Hill to Everyone: Thanks @Aydin. I'll have to adapt that interactive display about kindness, resilience and hope for World Kindness Day and/or the mindfulness program I lead 12:37:03 From Kaley Stewart to Everyone: our higher ups want ONLY displays that are cultural months/days/etc. all these fun ideas you've been throwing out aren't being allowed right now. 12:37:08 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: That isn't explicitly about why peole may have a problem with JK Rowling. It's encouraging people to read more widely 12:37:12 From Kathy Murphy to Everyone: We do a monthly display specifically for kids. "Cool Picks for Kids picked by Kids!" Each month one young patron chooses enough books for the display and I take their photo with their display and post it on our library FB page with a short caption. Patrons love it! 12:37:12 From Kara Sabbagh to Everyone: Re HP I feel trapped between the young kids who are too young to know anything about that but are so passionate about the stories and absolutely NOT wanting to make anyone upset or feel attacked / like we support a biggot 12:37:15 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: That's a good idea Natalie 12:37:22 From Audrey Swartz to Everyone: Ohhhhh Stephen Jones is such a good author 12:37:37 From Montoya Megerle Barker to Everyone: Lovecraft Country (TV series) was amazing. 12:37:45 From Melinda Borie to Everyone: weirdly Lovecraft Country was written by a white man... so that's something to be aware of if you're trying to diversify 12:37:47 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: Weirdly one of our best displays was a recent one we did for "books with 'snow' in the title"; we ran out of books so fast, we had to do generic winter after that. 12:37:54 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: LOVE Plain Bad Heroines!! 12:37:54 From Natalie Korsavidis to Everyone: Gives you time to come up with ideas (unless it falls within a certain time frame such as Mother's Day) 12:37:56 From Sonya Williams to Everyone: I don't understand, Faye re: especially if they're queer. I'm gay, so...? 12:38:08 From Debbie Updegraff to Everyone: Best one I've done was last year...Cats vs Dogs. Cats on one wall, dogs on the other. It was pretty easy to find enough books & popular enough that it was extended from 2 weeks to the entire month. Include J non-fiction and picture books. 12:38:10 From Tabbi Heavner to Everyone: I did "Merry and Bright" with books by or about Marys. 12:38:20 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: @Sonya She's been particularly problematic about trans folks 12:38:28 From Amy Smith to Everyone: Debbie I did that in adult fiction! One cat, one dog display. 12:38:30 From Aydin Kwan to Everyone: I feel like people can enjoy Harry Potter--I myself do--but we do not need to continue upholding it as a cultural institution within the library. 12:38:31 From Jeffrey Rivera to Everyone: @Kara - Lovecraft is def in the "outer darkness". Not sure what to do with him either. 12:38:33 From Amy Oelkers to Everyone: Some opinions in my library system are that props can dissuade people from taking books from a display. Patrons don't want to "ruin" the display. The procedure here is to make the collection the star. Does anyone have thoughts on this? Have you found that highly decorated displays don't circ as well? I'd love different perspectives. 12:38:42 From Carla Hollar to Everyone: I did Dog vs Cat so fun and everyone loved it. 12:38:45 From Allie Bennett to Everyone: I did a display on Microhistories that was a huge hit. Honestly probably my greatest idea ever, couldn't top it if I tried. 12:38:51 From Helen Li to Everyone: @Amy- add some intentional holes! 12:39:02 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: @Amy: We always make sure to add a sign along the lines of "Books on display can be checked out" 12:39:02 From Ashley Cooper to Everyone: We did The grinch this year at Christmas instead of doing anything religious. I had "Don't be a Grinch, check out a book." 12:39:10 From Megan Hellwig to Everyone: Having bilingual kids books is something I like to incorporate with each display I can as well. 12:39:12 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: As a thought, it can be easier to do more displays if you have less emphasis on props. 12:39:25 From Glennis Siegfried to Everyone: We put up a similar display to the “snow” theme this month. “Winter is Coming” was a bunch of titles with winter type words including snow and ice, and there was a picture of Jon Snow on the display sign. 12:39:29 From Jeffery Barbour to Everyone: Like your idea of putting a sign up that books on display can be checked out! 12:39:31 From Louisa Aikin to Everyone: I'd say to display Lovecraft and let the patrons choose what they want to select. 12:39:34 From Mary Eckles to Everyone: Our Dark Academia book display has been killing it 12:39:40 From Sonya Williams to Everyone: Ah, yes. I understand now re: trans/Rowling. 12:39:44 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: We have little bookmarks that specifically say to take the books! 12:39:44 From Ashley Cooper to Everyone: All my books were Green, and they weren't about Christmas. 12:39:51 From Amy Smith to Everyone: I include a little poster with the titles I put in the display in case they get checked out. 12:39:52 From Katie Coppola to Everyone: for Native American Indigenous Peoples month we had the authors tribe attached to their books to show how many different tribes and nations are represented 12:40:02 From Katie Tay to Everyone: @mary the idea behind #ownvoices is good, it just happened to out some authors before they were ready to be out... If you are doing a display about a specific culture it's nice to use authors who identify as that culture and not (for example) a bunch of white midwestern ladies writing about (insert other culture here) (like the American dirt controversy) 12:40:02 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: Props make them super appealing but also suck up our time. I'm torn on it. My library has moved away from props etc on displays. We do canva signs and go forward 12:40:03 From Natalie Korsavidis to Everyone: What's an example of a Dark Academia title? 12:40:09 From Mary Schaff to Everyone: The Lovecraft discussion is interesting to me. We have one librarian who is adamant that we should not be profiling problematic authors at all. 12:40:11 From Lisa MacLellan to Everyone: Heck yes! I’m Black and I bird! 🐦 Remember that no one group is a monolith! 12:40:15 From Nicole Westerdahl to Everyone: Love the little shark! 12:40:16 From towanda to Everyone: I done staff picks and customers picks 12:40:16 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: Great idea Julia! Need to keep that in mind for future displays 12:40:16 From Amanda Hayes to Host and Panelists: Natalie: The Secret History. 12:40:22 From Tina Craft to Everyone: It takes time to build up collections for displays as well if you don't have the resources in your possession yet 12:40:31 From Abby Hargreaves to Everyone: @Natalie If We Were Villains by ML Rio, The Secret History by Donna Tartt 12:40:33 From Mary Eckles to Everyone: Babel by RK Kuang, the Secret History by Donna Tartt, If We Were Villians 12:40:34 From Marina to Everyone: @Natalie The Secret History by Donna Tart is usually considered as dark academia 12:40:35 From Helen Li to Everyone: @ natalie not necessarily dark academia but I had a "have fun at school AND DONT GET MURDERED" 12:40:39 From Amanda Hayes to Host and Panelists: Also Ninth House, If We Were Villains, Babel, Bunny, Catherine House... there are some great lists online. :) 12:40:39 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: I do want to have more visually appealing stuff though 12:40:40 From Kelly Ribeiro to Host and Panelists: I'm jealous of all these wonderful displays. I need to do better with my creativity 12:40:44 From Candace L Owens to Host and Panelists: I like "We are the West" 12:40:48 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: @Katie: It's good for all the months - Hispanic Heritage Month we try to make sure we have someone from every country 12:40:53 From Amanda Hayes to Host and Panelists: (I just read Ninth House and loved it tremendously.) 12:40:59 From Wendy Prince to Everyone: Amu O: \We add a small sign on displays that reminds people that the books are available for check out 12:41:08 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: Joann Fabrics has great online sales 12:41:10 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: We can't do every tribe but we try to showcase more than just the well known ones 12:41:10 From Natalie Korsavidis to Everyone: Thanks! 12:41:12 From Candace L Owens to Everyone: I like "We are the West" as a display title... 12:41:13 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: and get it shipped 12:41:15 From Leigh Ann Williams to Everyone: Problematic authors should still be seen, otherwise you fall into censorship territory 12:41:16 From Sean Farrell to Everyone: unsplash.com is a great source for beautiful royalty-free background images for signage 12:41:22 From Joelle Mellon (she/her/hers) to Everyone: Maia Kobabe (author/artist of the Gender Queer graphic novel) had this really interesting take on the J.K. Rowling controversy: https://redgoldsparkspress.com/projects/7180180 12:41:30 From Katie Coppola to Everyone: Yes very great idea! 12:41:30 From Rebecca Zimmerman to Everyone: @Natalie Atlas Paradox and its sequel 12:41:34 From Melissa Lonergan to Everyone: Amy Oelkers, I've used props in several displays - Halloween, International Games Month and Holiday baking and everyone loved the displays and it didn't deter anyone from taking any books out. Some children played with some of the bugs in the Halloween display but nothing was placed anywhere where it blocked a book from being removed from the display. 12:41:36 From Tabbi Heavner to Everyone: Remnants can be as long as 1.25 yards. 12:41:38 From Kara Sabbagh to Everyone: Thanks for sharing Joelle def going to check that out 12:41:39 From Trevor Adams to Everyone: I feel the need to point out that the reason we should use EDI in putting together our displays isn't to make ourselves more comfortable, it's to make the world suck less. And because it's the right thing to do. 12:41:50 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: Thanks, Joelle! 12:41:51 From Amy Smith to Everyone: thanks Trevor. :) 12:41:56 From Almy Landauer to Everyone: what is the fabric Faithe is talking about? 12:42:01 From Anna Binder-Camacho to Everyone: You'll usually find those bits of fabric in the remnant section as well. And then sometimes they have an extra percentage off it 12:42:04 From Carla Siqueiros to Everyone: I like to include printables in my kids displays - coloring sheets, make your own comic strips, wordsearches, etc 12:42:13 From Sonya Williams to Everyone: Thanks, Joelle Melon! 12:42:14 From Carla Hollar to Everyone: high shine polyester she said 12:42:15 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: Almy, Faithe said it's high-shine polyester, although I don't know more than that 12:42:29 From tsh99627 to Everyone: Right On Trevor! 12:42:30 From Leigh Ann Williams to Everyone: Looks kind of like satin, but that might snag too easily 12:42:31 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: I'll also add for all of the [identity] months that we do, we also add a lot of text highlighting people, so it's not just books 12:42:40 From Monique Phillips to Everyone: Thank you Trevor. 12:42:45 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: You're looking for satin polyester usually in the special occasion or costuming section 12:42:52 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: At Joanns ask for synthetic satin 12:42:57 From Mary Schaff to Everyone: I agree Leigh Ann. Censorship and muting the "classics" of the genre because the author is scummy can also be a disservice 12:42:59 From Kendra Redford Twp District Library to Everyone: I use the Publisher bookmark templates and make bibliography bookmarks to go with my displays. 12:43:12 From Deborah Dwyer to Everyone: I roll wrapping paper out on the table 12:43:18 From Sharon to Everyone: check out coupons and end of season sales. 12:43:25 From Jeffrey Rivera to Everyone: @Mary - I think our whole society questions this.. 12:43:28 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: I created bookmarks for Banned Books month with 1 or 2 reasons for why each book on a bookmark was banned 12:43:28 From Sharon to Everyone: Joann has pretty great sales 12:43:28 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: I've also been trying to take book display titles and make them book lists on our blog 12:43:29 From Amy Oelkers to Everyone: Re: Put a sign saying "Books can be checked out"--does it work? Do people take them? 12:43:31 From jdonati to Everyone: curtains work too..just hide the seam. 12:43:31 From Kerisa Shorthouse to Everyone: @ Leigh Ann I agree to a certain extent, but we need to remember what has been said about displays reflecting our values. We don't want to remove Lovecraft or Rowling from our library shelves, certainly, but how much do we want to be lifting them up? 12:43:32 From Melinda Borie to Everyone: @ Leigh Anne, there's a difference between having "problematic" authors available (that word covers a lot of ground... nobody's perfect so we're all problematic to some degree, but let's assume we're talking pretty bad stuff like racism, abuse, etc) and making them the star of a book display 12:43:33 From Danielle Taulman to Everyone: I would love to do a display that reflects on Hidden History. What I mean is history that has been hidden from history textbooks or people that have been unrecognized for some time and needs to be heard 12:43:33 From R Babilon- JGRLS to Everyone: I used the stacked boxes draped with fabric all the time. This was a technique that I learned as a decorator for Aramark Catering. 12:43:36 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: and I often do bookmark lists 12:43:42 From Giovanna Perez to Everyone: I had not thought about using fabric for book displays. I have so much fabric at home from my sewing classes! 12:43:45 From Mary Eckles to Everyone: I use washi tape for decorating shelves! 12:43:56 From Briana Turner to Everyone: Canva is a wonderful tool to create flyers, bookmarls etc.. 12:43:57 From Katie Tay to Everyone: https://www.joann.com/casa-satin/zprd_08527822a.html 12:44:07 From Aydin Kwan to Everyone: I don't think it's at all censorship to be selective about authors to include in book displays, especially if there are authors who have been vocal enough about hate speech to alienate your marginalized patrons. It says something about our values. We are selecting what books to highlight anyway, and the books will still be available in the library should people want to check them out. Rowling and Lovecraft have enough promotion that nobody's going to not know they exist just because the library isn't highlighting them. 12:44:08 From Ashley Cooper to Everyone: I love Canva! 12:44:09 From Jeffrey Rivera to Everyone: @Danielle - love hidden history idea. 12:44:09 From Amy Smith to Everyone: the fabric sounds reusable and not too "themed" and that's great for not having to buy something for every display. 12:44:12 From Julie Sutton to Everyone: We don't use a lot of props on our displays, but I get little display stands, risers, or boxes for $1-$5 at Target. They make the displays look interesting, but no one gets worried about messing anything up. 12:44:14 From towanda to Everyone: yes love canva 12:44:15 From Katie Tay to Everyone: Love Canva! 12:44:29 From Giovanna Perez to Everyone: Canva has to be my favorite website! 12:44:32 From Melinda Borie to Everyone: You can have a pro canva account with your library credentials! 12:44:39 From Hope Christansen to Everyone: I like to have a handout such as a bibliography of the theme that viewers can take with them. 12:44:40 From Heidi Keppen Palmer to Everyone: @Amy it worked for us! Each display since we started using the signs, we see a few more items check out 12:44:53 From Danielle Taulman to Everyone: I agree on Canva being an excellent tool to use. I use it all the time 12:45:00 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: We also have a "Give it Another Look" display - it's constant, under our "new Shelves" section, and my worker basically just pulls books from bottom rows to display them so they get checked out, since a lot of people don't look at the bottom shelves. We tend to get a good chunk of check outs from that, and if something still doesn't circulate we'll weed it. 12:45:10 From Elizabeth Denten to Host and Panelists: I learned that lesson hard. Don't add items that you will miss on the display. Hard lesson. 12:45:12 From Haley Craft to Host and Panelists: @Leigh Ann Williams it’s not censorship if they’re still in the collection. 12:45:12 From Steven Trelstad to Everyone: Our campus has the benefit of an instructor who uses a 3D printer for classes. We've coordinated with them to create props for us to use in displays. 12:45:13 From Jeffrey Rivera to Everyone: @Aydin - Patrons can access, without emphasis. Best of both. 12:45:23 From Carla Siqueiros to Everyone: I sometimes include the history or background of a celebration or theme to provide context and put that in an acrylic as well as a small sign that says- "yes you can check out these books" 12:45:27 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: Just a reminder to everyone that I’ll be sending the chat transcript, slides, and recording in a few days so you’ll all have access to these great tips! 12:45:34 From Kathryn Alexander to Everyone: I don't usually feature classics or popular authors to begin with, especially for topics where we have a lot of books. Those books will circulate even if we do not promote them, but the newer or lesser known authors might need our help more. 12:45:47 From Michelle Priola to Everyone: ASSOCIATION! 12:45:47 From Kara Sabbagh to Everyone: This is such an active chat I'm going to need to watch the video part again :'D 12:45:48 From Briana Turner to Everyone: February Display "Never Been Kissed" for items that haven't been checked out/low circs! 12:45:49 From Amanda Bailey to Everyone: I'm in a academic library 12:45:51 From Erica Dean Glenn to Everyone: These are such great ideas! Both from Faithe and the chat!!! 12:45:53 From Rebecca Williams to Everyone: so many of my props and fabric I find at yard sales...using for multiple subjects 12:45:54 From Kayla Aaron to Host and Panelists: Academic 12:45:55 From Wendy Prince to Everyone: Small stick on mustaches on bio for Mustache Month was an inexpensive but popular dispaly 12:45:55 From Mary Schaff to Everyone: Thanks for the good discussion, all :) 12:45:56 From Lance Gaston to Everyone: public here 12:46:01 From Amy Oelkers to Everyone: Thanks for your perspective, @Melissa Lonergan! 12:46:03 From Kamesha Bradham to Everyone: academic here 12:46:08 From Cirrus Gundlach to Everyone: community college here 12:46:09 From Danielle Taulman to Everyone: Academic 12:46:12 From Julie Sutton to Everyone: We include flyers for related programs, bookmarks, buttons, or printouts on a lot of our displays 12:46:18 From Kathy Hines to Everyone: Enjoyed your presentation! 12:46:19 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: When I was in an academic library we had coloring sheets and the students loved it as a great stress relief from studying! 12:46:20 From Giovanna Perez to Everyone: Public library here and our patrons love all the free stuff! 12:46:25 From Aydin Kwan to Everyone: @Kathryn - Agree. Better to use that space for a new author. :) 12:46:40 From Bertha Coleman to Everyone: For our summer reading display we used fish nets attached to the service desk with 3-D sea creatures caught in the nets. Kids loved it! 12:46:59 From Winifred Lucy to Everyone: I love that Bertha 12:47:00 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: @Bertha: that is super cute and I may steal it :) 12:47:07 From CJ (He/Him) to Everyone: As long as JK Rowling uses her cultural relevancy & sales as evidence that her transphobia is validated and continues actively cause harm to trans people I don't think it's responsible to highlight the materials in displays & programs. HP isn't a series that is going away - and it still permeates the culture enough that it's not like that patrons are going to be unaware that those materials are available without displays. 12:47:09 From Amy Oelkers to Everyone: @Heidi, that's great! Thank you for your perspective! 12:47:11 From Karen Pfeffer to Everyone: Academic library here! We have coloring pages and whole "creation station" with play-doh, puzzles, and paper planes. the paper planes are VERY popular :) 12:47:15 From Jessica Varon to Everyone: Our Children's Dept. did a simple monster mouth on our book drop that was a hit. Everyone loved it. 12:47:19 From Jeffrey Rivera to Everyone: Public here 12:47:21 From Catherine Adedokun to Everyone: Are we getting a recording? 12:47:30 From Kate Huddleston to Everyone: yes 12:47:32 From Tracy Hanson to Everyone: QR codes have work well for us too - point to digital materials in the catalog, etc 12:47:38 From Kate Huddleston to Everyone: A recording is coming 12:47:44 From Erica Dean Glenn to Everyone: I love the idea of coloring pages for adults! I'm a children's librarian and I'm going to offer some to our Art and Music department! 12:47:46 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: Public - we have coloring pages, and then certain months we do book giveaways that include activity sheets like word searches, mazes, etc 12:47:52 From Amy Oelkers to Everyone: @CJ YES. This. Thank you for your comment. 12:48:03 From Kamesha Bradham to Everyone: For those in academic libraries, how do you get students to come in. It has been a struggle for me. 12:48:05 From Carlo Mastrandrea to Everyone: QR codes help to make the displays interactive 12:48:14 From Karen Gertsch to Everyone: Appreciate all the ideas. Weakley County Library (public) in northwest TN. 12:48:19 From Amy Coles to Everyone: For accessibility, if you're using puns in your display title, be sure the theme is at least clear in the aesthetic of the display - not everyone is going to understand the pun! 12:48:31 From Elizabeth Denten to Host and Panelists: Anybody have ideas for free items for displays? I love that idea. 12:48:32 From Amy Oelkers to Everyone: Thank you for including accessibility! 12:48:36 From Almy Landauer to Everyone: I try to put the signage in more than one language. 12:48:48 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: CJ, for sure agreed. Also, as Faithe said, some of this is to promote things that don't circ on their own as much...HP is going to do just fine no matter what. 12:48:49 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: Ooh that's a great idea/reminder @Almy! 12:48:57 From Marta Mazur Rusak to Host and Panelists: I've used Canva to create display props. For example, printing birds, mugs of hot cocoa, snowflakes etc. to jazz up our winter reading challenge display 12:48:57 From Sylvia Rowe to Everyone: I love using QR codes and have some up that link to recipes etc. for my Veganuary display (academic library) 12:48:58 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: Great idea, Almy! 12:48:59 From Joelle Mellon (she/her/hers) to Everyone: Kamesha — We offer activities in our academic library to attract patrons! Game night, movie night, etc. 12:49:00 From tsh99627 to Everyone: Kamesha we had a "Pop into the Library" event and had the local movie theater donate popcorn 12:49:12 From Jeffrey Rivera to Everyone: @Almy - YES! 12:49:13 From Lindsay Fuchs to Everyone: Big type, esp because we have a large elderly patron pop. 12:49:17 From John Davis to Everyone: Whoever shared the Kobabe comic thanks! 12:49:23 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: People who love HP have already read them. Encouraging them to find new things in that genre is awesome and helpful 12:49:29 From Louisa Aikin to Everyone: Agreed, Melinda! Dr. Seuss is a good example. 12:49:32 From Nicole MacGibbon to Host and Panelists: I work in a public library rather than an academic one, but we've had a lot of success reaching teens and young adults through TikTok. 12:49:38 From Amy Smith to Everyone: I try to include multiple formats in our displays-- large print books, Playaways, books on CD. 12:49:45 From Melinda Borie to Everyone: although if there's not anything in the display in that language, it might be false advertising 12:49:47 From Leigh Ann Williams to Everyone: Maybe something like "If you liked HP, you'll love..." 12:49:49 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: The number of HP books is finite. The number of boarding school with magic books is wide 12:49:51 From Melissa Lonergan to Everyone: I try to do a "handout" to go with certain displays. This month I have a couple budget and organize sheets for our Get Organized Display and puzzle sheets like crosswords, scrambles, word search etc. for National Puzzle month. 12:49:53 From Amanda Hayes to Host and Panelists: Increasing circ isn't the only reason to have a display. Sometimes I want to lure patrons into reading (or watching, or hearing) something, anything--so they can learn, so they can escape the world, or for whatever reason. I usually sprinkle some popular things in a display in hopes that a rare or reluctant reader might think, "I've heard of that..." and take it, because it's right there in front of them. 12:49:59 From Morgan Mann to Everyone: Myth about comic sans and dyslexia - mom of 2 dyslexics and librarian here 12:50:01 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: The Rick Riordan Presents books are AMAZING and appealing. 12:50:06 From Megan Hellwig to Everyone: There is also a font specifically for dyslexia! 12:50:10 From John Davis to Everyone: Uncle Rick <3 12:50:13 From Kit Lovelace to Everyone: it's my favorite just for that! as is veranda 12:50:14 From Kara Sabbagh to Everyone: Yes! Sooo good I Have a RR Presents display up right now. 12:50:19 From CJ (He/Him) to Everyone: There's also the Open Dyslexic Font 12:50:21 From Faye Levin-O'Leary to Everyone: Rick Riordan is the absolute best 12:50:23 From Aydin Kwan to Everyone: Yeah "boarding school magic" could be a great theme for a display! 12:50:24 From Karen Pfeffer to Everyone: @Kamesha our student employees are HUGE advocates. They bring in their friends, they help develop displays and events that speak to our community, etc. We also use QR codes through campus to highlight library information, events, and more. 12:50:27 From Jeffery Barbour to Everyone: Good information about eye-level and QRCodes to make more engaging. 12:50:33 From Kara Sabbagh to Everyone: Will be good to be able to pivot kids to that series especially when a new and exciting show is coming out (Re percy Jackson) 12:50:36 From Debbie Updegraff to Everyone: @kathrynAlexander 12:50:45 From Beverly Michaels to Everyone: I think the readability of Comic Sans is in dispute. Not the best for everyone with reading difficulties 12:50:55 From Megan Hellwig to Everyone: https://opendyslexic.org/ 12:51:01 From Kamesha Bradham to Everyone: Thank you 12:51:09 From Caitlin Beach to Everyone: Just remember to be mindful with things like QR codes if you work in an area where people may not have smartphones. (Many do not, here.) 12:51:14 From Yoly Avella to Everyone: We try to include multiple formats in our displays- audiobooks, large print, dvd 12:51:15 From Debbie Updegraff to Everyone: Kathryn, that's how I feel also. I try to promote things that might be overlooked. 12:51:20 From Mary Eckles to Everyone: I'm doing a Taylor Swift Songs as Book Rec's Display, I should put a picture of her up on it 12:51:24 From Cirrus Gundlach to Everyone: I like open dyslexic, as a dyslexic, it really is helpful. 12:51:27 From Julie Edwards to Everyone: And a reminder that you can see our upcoming webinars here! https://www.nicheacademy.com/blog 12:51:38 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: Agreed, I have patrons who deliberately do not "do" Internet/iphones/computers 12:51:40 From Danielle Stokes to Everyone: I am in children's but I make all our signage using Comic Sans because of it's accessibility to those with reading disabilities. 12:51:43 From Beverly Michaels to Everyone: https://creativemarket.com/blog/is-comic-sans-easier-for-dyslexic-users-to-read 12:51:47 From Nicole Westerdahl to Everyone: I use the WebAim contrast checker: https://webaim.org/resources/contrastchecker/ 12:51:47 From Helen Li to Everyone: @ Melinda definitely agree that if there is a collection gap we don't want to mislead patrons about the diversity in our collections, which is tough and uncomfortable. 12:51:50 From Raymonda Derrell to Everyone: Thank you! 12:51:58 From Kara Sabbagh to Everyone: Thank you ! 12:51:59 From Shane Dundas to Everyone: 70% contrast based on ADA. 12:51:59 From Michelle Graby to Everyone: I absolutely love the fabric idea! 12:52:01 From Leigh Ann Williams to Everyone: Great presentation, thank you! 12:52:02 From Saren Quinn to Host and Panelists: Thank youuuu 12:52:02 From Robbin Bailey to Everyone: Excellent job!

Is there any way to access this info at a later date? thanks, shari 12:52:06 From Mattie Stackley to Everyone: Thank you! 12:52:06 From Elizabeth Denten to Host and Panelists: Thank you this was very helpful! 12:52:06 From Gail Long to Everyone: Thank you! 12:52:06 From Caroline Snyder to Everyone: Thank you! 12:52:06 From Caitlin Jones to Everyone: Thank you 12:52:07 From Carrie Sisk to Everyone: Thank you 12:52:07 From Stacee Talusan to Everyone: Thanks Faithe! 12:52:07 From Allison Redmond to Everyone: Thank you, Faithe! 12:52:08 From Melinda Herder to Everyone: Thank you! 12:52:08 From cheryl lawrence to Everyone: Any ideas as far as doing displays on bookmobiles? 12:52:08 From Kelsey Winter to Everyone: Thank you so much for your presentation! 12:52:08 From Kit Lovelace to Everyone: Thank you!! 12:52:08 From Sarah Collinge to Everyone: Thank you! 12:52:08 From Doriana Onorati to Everyone: Thank You! 12:52:09 From Alysha Wogee to Everyone: Thank you, very well done and good ideas! 12:52:10 From Renee Burrows to Everyone: Thank you - wonderful information!!! 12:52:10 From Sharon Esbenshade to Everyone: Thank you! 12:52:10 From Tracy Hanson to Everyone: There's a good Facebook page, FYI - Public Library Book Displays :) Fun for idea-sharing! 12:52:11 From Danielle Taulman to Everyone: Thank you and thanks everybody for the great ideas 12:52:11 From Jenny Cahoon to Everyone: Thank you!

Any ideas for that, considering the display is on a moving vehicle? 12:53:59 From Maureen to Everyone: Lots of great ideas - thanks 12:54:06 From Otis Alexander to Everyone: Thanks for the valuable information regarding cultural inclusion for diversity purposes.

I did birds, mugs of hot cocoa, etc. for a winter display 12:55:01 From Carlo Mastrandrea to Everyone: have them provide it in writing, nobody likes forms. 12:55:02 From Shelbie Howard to Everyone: Thank you 12:55:03 From Kathy Hall to Everyone: We do display on Local authors and KY authors. 12:55:07 From Sonya Williams to Everyone: The HP display does not include any HP items. The items reflect the "personality" of the HP houses. That's why I included in the post what items I have under Gryffindor. 12:55:09 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: Then books on the shelves going down. You could add a prop per shelf. Less dynamic than on furniture but more interesting 12:55:39 From Beth Kuiper to Host and Panelists: Our library got a Cricut and that has upped our displays a LOT! 12:55:43 From Melanie Melville to Everyone: I would say: We have books here that reflect EVERYONE in our community. 12:55:43 From Nicole Westerdahl to Everyone: @Marta Ooh, nice tip! 12:55:45 From Kathy Flaherty to Everyone: Lots of great information. So glad I was able to attend! 12:55:47 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: Also you could add small sign holders with images 12:55:53 From Bertha Coleman to Everyone: Thank you so much for this very informative session. I look forward to reviewing the recording. Greater displays are in the future! 12:56:02 From Lake Bjork to Everyone: Are there any sort of books, authors, or display ideas you would not recommend trying? 12:56:15 From Eileen Washburn to Everyone: We had a complaint about our LGBTQ+ middle grade fiction display and after I talked with the parent for a bit it was clear she was upset about more in her children's lives and schools and just wanted to vent. 12:56:17 From Dan Major to Everyone: Definitely have a distinct display and challenge policy. ours is rolled in with the collection policy, but is stated distinctly 12:56:23 From Marsha Wright to Everyone: At least they didn't steal them 12:56:24 From Leigh Ann Williams to Everyone: That's amazing lol 12:56:26 From Morgan Mann to Everyone: This has inspired me to start a Pinterest board! I'll be filling it soon from all of these great ideas. https://www.pinterest.com/doorcountylibrary/book-displays/ 12:56:27 From Amy Coston to Everyone: that's wonderful! 12:56:30 From Robin Golesorkhi to Everyone: I love that! 12:56:30 From Autumn Weese to Everyone: love it 12:56:33 From Sonya Williams to Everyone: AWESOME re:locked case with rainbow flags!! 12:56:34 From Kat McCracken to Everyone: LOVE IT!!! 12:56:34 From Eileen Washburn to Everyone: Yes! We had patrons hiding books a lot at the last library I worked at. 12:56:41 From Amy Oelkers to Everyone: We had BIG challenges on the display itself (Pride). :( Now it's the policy to treat the display the same as a book challenge. It's reviewed just like a book would be. I believe this is in ALA guidelines. 12:56:42 From Autumn Weese to Everyone: 👍🏻 12:56:43 From Patricia Shaw to Everyone: colleen hoover and tik tok books for college students 12:56:48 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: I've definitely got a board on my Pinterest account with Library Displays/Ideas 12:56:49 From Nicole Westerdahl to Everyone: If it's a locked case how do people use the books?? 12:56:58 From Leigh Ann Williams to Everyone: BookTok is another great display idea 12:57:01 From Geraldine (Geri) Denkewalter to Everyone: Public Library: Anything we put out with a free sign is gone in a flash! 12:57:02 From Jenny Jackson to Everyone: programs are good for bringing people into the library 12:57:03 From Elizabeth Denten to Host and Panelists: No seriously Booktok is really useful 12:57:11 From Timothy Stoessel to Everyone: Booktok has questionable taste LOL 12:57:14 From Briana Turner to Everyone: Follow PCPL on tiktok ;) 12:57:15 From Giovanna Perez to Everyone: As a college student who works in a library, definitely use Tiktok to see what ideas are there. 12:57:16 From Clancy Smith to Everyone: Yes!! We have a tiktok for USM Special Collections!! 12:57:19 From Ruby Cruz to Everyone: Milwaukee public library has great ideas! 12:57:19 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: Locked cases defeats the point of displays which is incrasing circulation. 12:57:19 From Kelly Ribeiro to Host and Panelists: I'm scared to I might be missing some brain cells with tik tok 12:57:19 From Sheila Dougherty to Everyone: I've had people complain under their breath about my Pride Month display. 12:57:20 From Martha DiVittorio to Everyone: Gotta run, but thanks for the terrific presentation! 12:57:22 From Jennifer Zimmer to Everyone: Yep--BookTok! We definitely see our college students looking for books and authors because of TikTok. 12:57:24 From Tina O'Brien to Everyone: I don't have a problem with patrons hiding books from the displays but I try to stay away from any display that would cause controversy 12:57:28 From Giovanna Perez to Everyone: I spend too much time on tiktok every day 12:57:28 From Angela Briseno to Everyone: For academic libraries, here at our community college we are doing book displays 12:57:28 From Eunice Reyes to Everyone: Yes Social Media! 12:57:31 From Candace L Owens to Everyone: I working and watching but it has been very informative and insightful! I am genuinely grateful... and truly thankful 12:57:31 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: Locked cases sends a negative message. 12:57:33 From Jenny Jackson to Everyone: the programs can be a simple craft or a speaker 12:57:37 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: Yeah, we have a lot of books go missing, and we tend to believe that patrons are hiding them/taking them or that the books weren't checked out correctly 12:57:38 From Susan Ficarra to Everyone: Thank you! 12:57:38 From Melanie Melville to Everyone: We have a great tik tok here at Milwaukee Public Library 12:57:39 From Morgan Mann to Everyone: Any favorite hashtags to follow? 12:57:39 From Clancy Smith to Everyone: Booktok loves rarebooks! 12:57:40 From Kristina Claunch to Everyone: Thank you! 12:57:40 From Kit Lovelace to Everyone: I used to work at academia about a year ago and was a student at the same time! I helped with their displays and I really recommend tik tok and book tok is GREAT for what they want to read. May not like some of it but it's great 12:57:41 From Annalise Policicchio to Everyone: Including new books 12:57:43 From Ramana Konantz to Everyone: you can make major or department specific displays for academic libraries 12:57:50 From Laura Gartman to Everyone: Thanks for the great presentation! 12:57:55 From Shane Dundas to Everyone: How do I save the chats? 12:57:59 From Kat McCracken to Everyone: Is BookTok separate from TikTok? 12:58:01 From Tina Stockdill to Everyone: I used hash tags in my posters, and used a graphic design website Canva to make quality posters 12:58:04 From Giovanna Perez to Everyone: Booktok is a favorite tag to follow on tiktok and also BookDisplay on there as well 12:58:08 From Amy Smith to Everyone: we count how many books we replace on the display (filling empty spaces) 12:58:11 From Amy Oelkers to Everyone: BookTok books are always checked out! 12:58:12 From Hope Christansen to Everyone: We combined a blog with a display. Took picture of display & specific books for blog. 12:58:13 From Eileen Washburn to Everyone: I have a major problem with patrons hiding books! That's crazy! Not your stuff buddy 12:58:14 From Joyce Manley to Everyone: Thank you Faithe for a great talk! 12:58:14 From Sonya Williams to Everyone: True, Julia Starkey. :/ 12:58:15 From Debbie Updegraff to Everyone: We keep stats on each display through Polaris. 12:58:16 From Kristin Readel to Everyone: https://pin.it/2MijQHN 12:58:19 From Giovanna Perez to Everyone: Booktok is a tag on tiktok 12:58:26 From Rachel Rugg to Everyone: Collection HQ tracks your display books 12:58:27 From Kat McCracken to Everyone: Ahhhh, thank you! 12:58:27 From Winifred Lucy to Everyone: We received an email from a patron complaining about our LGBTQ display. 12:58:46 From Kat McCracken to Everyone: I, myself, do not TikTok obviously. LOL! 12:58:51 From Kristin Readel to Everyone: We save time not checking out to display and look at date due stamps, yes we still have 12:58:53 From Clancy Smith to Everyone: Our tiktok page is @usm_spcol 12:58:55 From May Pacis to Everyone: Thank you so much! 12:59:00 From Ruby Cruz to Everyone: For academic libs, first gen college student was a display this year 12:59:02 From Dan Major to Everyone: Don't call it blind date! 12:59:03 From Vickie Fleischauer to Everyone: We are able to run reports in our ILS. 12:59:12 From Mary Rudrow to Everyone: Thank you, great information! 12:59:13 From Sabrina Boglioli to Everyone: Started following those of you who are sharing your Pinterest!

I was on it all the time when I worked in the public library 12:59:26 From Winifred Lucy to Everyone: Great question!! 12:59:26 From Lake Bjork to Everyone: We used to set all of our books to display to keep track, but it became an issue of forgetting to set them back when the display was done, causing books to get lost in the library and not go where they were meant to. 12:59:29 From Helen Li to Everyone: Thank you! 12:59:39 From Louisa Aikin to Everyone: Thanks so much! I have to leave for another meeting. 12:59:44 From Danielle Davis to Everyone: Thank you so much!

This was great, lots of good ideas. 13:00:00 From Jennifer Senger to Everyone: Thank you! Very helpful! 13:00:05 From Melissa Lonergan to Everyone: Faithe, I have an item list for every display that I do. I check off every time something on the list gets checked out and I replace with something else on my list. This way I can tell how many things come off my displays. My Halloween display had at least 15 books checked out. 13:00:05 From Jenn Runyan to Everyone: Thank you so much! 13:00:07 From Mary Schaff to Everyone: I wonder if official complaints would decrease with just intermixing marginalized authors/topics with more generic themes instead of making it the topic of the display 13:00:07 From Amanda Decker to Everyone: Thank you so much to all for the ideas! 13:00:11 From Susan Hulsey to Everyone: How do you check out the Blind Date books? Do they every unwrap and then don't want the book? 13:00:12 From Martha Andrade to Everyone: Thank you. 13:00:15 From Tina O'Brien to Everyone: We put slips in our books for the blind date with a book and the patron can say if they loved it, liked it, or did not like it.

I got some great ideas. 13:00:40 From Paula McGraw to Host and Panelists: A good display should reflect the values of the community, not just the values of the staff. Let's not push agendas on our patrons. 13:00:44 From Tina O'Brien to Everyone: We copy the barcode of the book and put it outside on the wrapper 13:00:44 From Julia Starkey to Everyone: I also do display lists and then check off when I put them out on display 13:00:47 From Jeanne Heicher to Everyone: If you highlight books in photos on fb, you can use props and other interesting stuff in those images, like a virtual display- even if you have no physical room. 13:00:49 From Beth Stewart to Host and Panelists: This webinar was great.
