Thank you for providing pictures of a display idea not many people may think of doing. I have done an adoption display a couple of times in our library, but never a program. I included fiction where the focus was adoption as well as several non-fiction titles. It has always been a popular display.

Please do continue to contribute your photos and ideas!

Living in the great state of Connecticut our library has many fine books about the state, many which languish on our shelves. I decided to do a display of some of these books for the month of March. I've included books on travel, history, mammals, reptiles, fishing, books by Connecticut authors, magazines, etc. I also included pamphlets and maps from our state.I hung our state flag over the display and quickly had a visually appealing display that has been circulating well.

I thought all the ideas everyone posted for their Book Displays were great.
This will be a terrific resource for our new staff person who will be doing our displays.
Thanks so much for all the awesome ideas,
Sally

For libraries interested in linking adult book displays to the summer reading program, Get a Clue@the Library, Sisters in Crime has posted some great shots. SINC offered a poster, crime scene tape, and bookmarks to get folks started-- although their promotion is over we can still use those ideas.

Crime scene tape has so many creative uses! For those of us needing some ideas for either displays or summer reading themes, you can't go wrong with these. Thanks for posting these photos and ideas from Sisters In Crime!
