Celebrate MI Right to Read Week

Get ready to celebrate Right to Read week here in Michigan! This September 22-28 we are sharing a positive and proactive message that emphasizes access, diversity in library collections, librarian qualifications, and protection of our First Amendment rights. Here’s an example of our creative campaign using the ALA theme of “FRead Between the Lines.” Using black out poetry each day, we will have a new and inspiring message that we hope you will share with your patrons. Watch our social media sites for 7 different versions of our campaign.  We’ll have them posted on our website in advance so you can grab them if you want as well.

Better yet! Why don’t you help us by creating your own blackout poetry by having your patrons create their own and share about the importance and value of your library. Either way, we encourage you to help us highlight how libraries protect everyone's right to read during this important week!

Looking forward to celebrating Right to Read Week in September!
