From Refuse to Refuge: Create a Game Plan for Your Library to Encourage Reading
Bateman-Whitson, Jill
Knowledge Quest, v39 n4 p16-21 Mar-Apr 2011
It is important for students to be good readers. In order to encourage reading for the fun of it, the author developed a game plan for the library. In this article, the author discusses how to make the library the place to be. She suggests that librarians need to encourage students to read, read, read. They must make their libraries places of refuge for their students; students need to feel like the library is the most comfortable and welcoming place in the school. (Contains 5 figures.)
