A brief look at ‘grams of interest to engage teens and librarians navigating this social media platform. Thursday, January 29 was New York Public Library’s #libraryshelfie day during which book lovers worldwide snapped photos of their bookshelves and shared them on Instagram. From library shelves and to-be-read bedside stacks to pets with books and color coded shelving, shelfies of all sorts were spotlighted. This week we’ve collected the posts of several libraries that shared photos of their YA collections. Did you or your library participate this year?
It’s hard to believe that February is already here! Will you be doing any special displays for Valentine’s Day? Blind Date with a Book displays are always popular, but we found a few red-themed ideas as well (one of which provides an awesome use for those leftover bookmarks).
Have you come across a related Instagram post this week, or has your library posted something similar? Have a topic you’d like to see in the next installment of Instagram of the Week? Share it in the comments section of this post.
