ArLA 2024 Annual Conference

This session challenges the misconception that libraries are solely for reading and borrowing books by showcasing their innovation and community outreach. It focuses on repurposing book jackets to engage patrons through a Book Jacket Program. Participants will learn how to prepare, host, and guide patrons through this interactive activity, which promotes creativity and mindfulness. The session highlights the versatility of these programs, suitable for all ages, and emphasizes their potential to foster connections with diverse reading options.
