Bathroom Book Blurbs: Reading Recommendations in Every Stall

Captive audience taken to a whole other level!  Jaime Leroy over at School Library Journal touts an innovative way to advertise library books . . . in the bathroom!  She says "We all have students who love to read, tolerate reading, or avoid it at all costs. But they all have one thing in common—they go to the bathroom. I use this to my advantage."

And you can too!  Hang posters for upcoming programs and events, promote "New Reads," and even pin up your newsletter (Leroy's planned one is called "Potty Mouth") in the restrooms for a new way to capture the attention of library visitors.
