Sarah Beth Librarian: Help me out, librarians!

sarahbethlibrarian:

Whenever I make a display, the books I put out generally circulate pretty well. And if they’re not circing, they’re at least getting picked up and browsed pretty regularly. But when I put the books back (I switch displays every 1-2 months, depending on the content), they go right back to…

Shelf talkers. Shelf talkers. Shelf talkers. You can ask regular patrons to write them or just have staff do it. Great way to get people down the aisles.

Also, I know it’s time consuming but rotate displays more frequently. I generally advise rotating a display topic once every two weeks.
