When the Oil Creek and Seneca Districts did our Summer Reading Training this Spring the evaluations showed that you enjoyed Sandee Lalley's BookTalk the best. Well it came in second behind all the freebies, but we're not counting those. So I was thinking maybe we need some resources so we can do booktalks as part of our marketing of Summer Reading.
By coincidence, I went to a workshop called Connecting Boys with Books and the presenter Micheal Sullivan has a website, where he has over 400 prepared booktalks free for the taking!!! Take a look at his site, and feel free to use his booktalks for when you present at schools, preschools, etc. Once you do some of his, try writing a few of your own and see how it develops.
The site is www.talestoldtall.com/booksforboys

The Oil Creek District Pipeline is intended to be a two way conduit of information between the 14 member libraries of the Oil Creek Library District and the District Library Center. In time, the pipeline will also serve as an idea exhange, a "go to" resource, and an extension of our professional community.
