One thing that always gets me come summer reading club programming is just how divorced programs are from actual books or other sundry library items. With the exception of displaying a few books related to a program, we really don't marry the two often despite being the library.
So I'm thinking of creating book-specific inspired programming that will allow me to book-talk a music themed book and present a craft inspired by that book.
Let me begin with what so many great things begin with. A Booklist.
