Re: [Michlib-l] 1000 Books Before Kindergarten
by Kaitlin Matesich 12 Aug '19

Thank you to everyone who shared their program with me, this goes leaps and bounds towards getting our 1k before K program up and running. While many libraries vary from program to program common threads though out included: -Rewarding families with a small prize (dollar store, books, bubbles, ect.) through out the program (every 100 books or at milestones 100, 250,500) - a certificate of completion at the end with a larger prize: dedicate a book, group party or some form of acknowledgement of their accomplishment -Having paper logs (typically an in-house creation) available, tracking 50-100 books at a time - Most libraries seem to track the count of books and not the title - Having a brochure or orientation packet for parents. We have some absolute rock stars in Youth and Children's services. You all are amazing! -- Kaitlin Matesich Youth Services Coordinator Benzie Shores District Library
