Reading Hour Panel: A digital display
In March the Library created a digital display to promote an upcoming event at Waterfront Campus Library – ‘Reading Hour Panel: How to keep your teenager reading in a world of distractions‘.
The event shared insights provided by school librarians, teachers and booksellers about what measures work and what doesn’t in guiding teenagers to choose and read the books that will interest them, based on the conversations they regularly have with teenagers. It also drew on insights from teenagers themselves about what kinds of help from the adults in their lives are valuable, and what kinds are not. As reading habits often diminish during the teenage years, this session was intended to help the families and friends of teenage readers support a continued enjoyment of reading.
This event was aligned with the Australian Reading Hour, a national celebration of Australians’ love of reading hosted by the Australian Publishers Association.
The artwork included in the displays are used design elements from the Reading Hour branding to promote the event in a bright and engaging way. The screens featured information about the event alongside profiles of the panel speakers.
