Nothing generates more enthusiasm for literacy than going
beyond a good cover and talking about the great story that lies
between the pages.

GENERATE ENTHUSIASM FOR LITERACY
As your community’s literacy leader, what better way to support your
school’s reading efforts than by providing kids and their families, access and
choice to books they want to read.
How it works:
Here are some ways you, your volunteers and students can use this program.

   HOLD Book Talks in the Library: request teachers bring their classes to the library at
    set times, to hear about, as well as preview these books.
   E
    NLIST Student Volunteers: ask students to give Book Talks to younger children,
   either during library time or in the classrooms.
   SCHOOL ANNOUNCEMENTS: use the reviews as well as the related Book Talk
    scripts (available FREE online at www.scholastic.ca/bookfairs/tipsandscripts.php)
    during daily announcements to promote the books and your upcoming Fair.
   C
    ONTACT your Book Fair Consultant to request actual book copies for display at
   least two weeks ahead of your Fair. Once your Book Fair arrives, you can place these
   books on your Fair and sell as needed.

SET UP Your Fair

    Gather 3 to 5 volunteers and use these instructions as your guide to set
    up your Fair. Choose the largest space available so customers can
    shop in comfort.
                                                                                                            1.

    POSITION YOUR CASES
    Cases – Organize cases in order of reading level. Merchandise left to right starting with
    Yellow, Red, Blue and end with Green (if applicable). Use the corresponding colour-coded
    shelf talkers on the front of the cases as a guide. Position cases in a horseshoe shape
    around the perimeter of the room. Open cases and align so they are slightly touching each
    other. Close each case if you need to move them.

    SET UP YOUR TABLES                                                                                      2.
    Tables – Position tables in the centre of Fair area. Allow plenty of room around each table for
    shopping. Put boxes of product beside each table and near the appropriate case with a
    similar reading level.
    Creating table displays – Step 1. Place supplied table covers on tables. To create more
    display space, place the box that the books came in on the centre of the table, open side
    down. Cover the box with another table cover.
    Step 2. Stack larger books in the centre of the table with smaller stacks on either side. Use
    the supplied cardboard book easels to create a pyramid effect to the display. Vary book
    covers between light and dark.
    Step 3. Place smaller books toward the edge of the table. Since customers will approach
                                                                                                            3.
