Kelly's December Displays

Kelly really went all out for December.  She decorated the circ desk:


Set up a Snow is Falling Books are Calling display

 
And the best display, in my opinion, THE BOOK TREE!!

December Displays

Happy Holidays!  The OPL displays were varied this month.  Our Owen room display was themed Chill Out and Read:



It wouldn't be December without a food themed display, so our small case was themed Treat Yourself to a Good Book.




Our final big display was themed Seasons Readings

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!

How to Prank a Librarian

How did you spend your sunday?  I printed out as many of the "Hey Girl" library meme's as possible and posted them all over Librarian Kelly's desk.  The meme's are AMAZING.

October YA and Childrens Displays

The October displays are now up for the Young Adult area and the Childrens room! 

For YA I went with an Undead and Well Read theme

You can't see it but my favorite poster is on the top right hand corner of the display:


The Children's Display was a little more tame, but still monster related!

Adult October Displays

I spent a good chunk of my September working on pictures and themes for the October displays.  Is anyone else SO excited for Halloween?  What will you be dressing as? 

The small display used the theme from Teen Read week a few years ago:  It Came From the Library!!!  Figuring out how to cut out goo was the hardest part:
 
 The display back by our Owen room has a Trick or Treat theme:

And finally our display by the computers encourages patrons to not be Scared to read

Kelly's October Displays

Kelly set up some awesome displays to kick off the month of October.  Firstly she did a display on Milt Hinton.  Milt has a huge background from here in Oberlin, and since the Oberlin College Art Museum is displaying pictures of this famous Jazz musician, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to celebrate his life as well!


Next Kelly decided to break the librarian code of conduct and spill the beans about our secret double life!

September Displays

We, here at the Oberlin Public Library, are very lucky to have the opportunity to display art work by local artist Bernadett Ginestet-Levine.  The pictures I took DO NOT do justice to the beauty of this artwork.  Come in to see this beautiful artwork for yourself!




Kelly create a fun display to celebrate Dahl Day!  So many great Roland Dahl books available.  What is your favorite?
