My first year at Jefferson I had the most spectacular practicum student, Amy, from GSLIS. While she was here we got into a discussion about how best to advertise the book that I was currently reading. She created my: A.T.M--What I'm reading At The Moment. It has been a hit for five years (kids are only mildly disappointed when they learn money will never shoot out). This year I expanded my impulse checkout display. In spite of the success of my A.T.M, I always felt that it was a bit limiting. What about books that I just like or want kids to try? So this year I created my REC--What I RECommend every student read. And you know what? It's another keeper. They sit side-by-side right at the circulation desk just begging to be grabbed by one of our students.
