I think it's good (for me!) to remember that encouraging participation can happen offline as well as on. Inviting customers to share doesn't have to depend on technology at all. But I happen to think it's pretty fun that way. :) Those are great ideas… I think it’s good (for me!) to remember that encouraging participation can happen offline as well as on.

Older patrons can write traditional book reports, use other media to illustrate the story, write an interview with the author ..... the ideas are endless. All it takes to involve your Jr. Patrons is a little space, some tape, labels and a love of books.
