Celebrating the National Park Service’s 100th Birthday
August 1, 2016
My squirrels of summer are making one final appearance at the Greenwood Library, this time donning party hats to celebrate the 1ooth birthday of the National Park Service. And, for a special program for our young patrons, our children’s librarian has arranged to Skype with a Yellowstone Park Ranger. Sounds like a clever and fun program.
For the Love of Nature and Books
July 7, 2016
Libraries across the country are deep into their summer reading programs, and the Greenwood Library where I work is no exception. (Although we call it “Summer of Learning” to encompass a broader range of exploration and discovery beyond “just” reading!) The theme for this year’s program is nature, and I created this display featuring some of my favorite books celebrating the natural world. I’ve mentioned several of them in my blog posts over the years.
Here are a couple of closer views so you can read the titles:
And here are the inside book drops:

Window Dressing with Papercraft
January 5, 2011
I volunteered to do the January display at the Greenwood Branch Library, so I chose to feature books about papercraft. There are so many good books on the subject. I didn’t have room to feature even a fraction. Here are some close-up shots of parts of the display:
Blogging Your Passions
April 28, 2010
I recently did the outside display at the Greenwood Library where I work. Of course, I chose blogging as my theme.
Since installing the display, I’ve come across a couple of new titles that would have fit beautifully. The book Suddenly Frugal by Leah Ingram features tips on how to live more on less. Ingram writes the blog www.suddenlyfrugal.com.
Blogging for Bliss by Tara Frey inspires readers by writing about bloggers who are also artists, quilters, craftspeople, sewers, etc. She says that “Creative blogs are the personal journals of the 21st century.” I’ve now got a new list of blogs to browse in my spare time.
