Easter Egg Hunt at the Library: The Conclusion

 It was fun!

Teenagers and food make a good mix. At some point reading must be required and rewarded. Looking for the eggs in the books was not easy. There were those who looked randomly and got frustrated. The more strategic thinkers consulted the OPAC. The theme, renewal and redemption, got some kids working and ended up finding a coupon or two.

The ones who got more than one egg coupon shared the rest with a friend. Those who participated realized that the library has interesting and good titles of books to read. Many wondered what the free "kwek-kwek" was all about.

I suppose, next time, they'll learn to read emails from the school's teacher librarian.

Easter Egg Hunt Promo at the Library

Sharing the library promo we're having this Easter:

April 3-8, 2013 is EASTER EGG HUNT @ the library!

There are eggs hidden in selected books in the FICTION, GENERAL COLLECTION, FILIPINIANA and TEACHERS RESOURCE. If you happen to borrow that selected book with an egg, then you get a coupon for a cup of quail eggs (aka kwek-kwek!). This can be redeemed from our cafeteria during PM snacks (2:45 - 3:30) on April 10, 2013. Just present your coupon with Mr. Flynn's signature to our cafeteria personnel :-)

Here's a clue: The eggs are hidden in books about RENEWAL and REDEMPTION.

For those who will borrow a KINDLE and DVD over the long Holy Week break, (begins on March 27 - April 2, 2013) the library will give away a special "Spring Basket" upon return of the resources on April 3, 2013.

Lastly, we will prepare simple handouts (EGG-CITING DISCOVERIES)  for when you find out a helpful info on the library's online subscriptions: EBSCO, The Day, World Book Online and Scientific American. For this, we have a spring token in exchange of your online review or feedback.

We hope that you participate for the fun of it, and for the joy of reading, of course!
