‘Currently reading’ flyers promote reading among school staff

Flyer taped in window that reads, 'Ms. Cynthia is currently reading ...'. A blank space below the text displays a cover image and brief write-up of 'The Wright 3' by Blue Balliett

Along with the book-review “Recommendations” display inside SRCSA library, I’ve created flyers that can showcase a staff-member’s reading. The idea is that our students — many of whom are asked to read a certain number of hours and to complete reading logs — will see these flyers and learn this about school staff: that we read, we value reading, and we make reading a part of our lives. I got the idea from a Twitter-chat among school-library personnel, and I used the Canva graphic-design app to create the flyer. My personal flyer includes my name (being the designer had its perks) but I also created a generic version that other staff who want to, can attach their own names to.
