Get Your Kicks on Route 66

July 08, 2010

It's my pleasure and duty to take care of the displays in the MCPL Weston Branch. I am constantly looking for fresh ideas to entice our customers to pick up one or two of these books. Recently, on a quick trip out to California to pick up a car and drive it back, my husband and I decided to drive back the Route 66 way. Honestly, we went the interstates and kept passing all the old Route 66. But it did give me an idea for a display. How about "Get Your Kicks on Route 66"? Low and behold, we had plenty of those books to make a great display. It's been fun to watch our customers stop and consider these books. For the older adults, I like to think they may be going to "way back when" as they pick up these books. The younger set may be just considering their next road trip while gas is still reasonable. So stop on by and take a look at our displays and see where they may take you. Oh, and we are always looking for interesting suggestions too.
