Subject: [Michlib-l] Southfield Public Library Virtual Summer Reading Room

Hello,

 

I'm very excited to share the Southfield Public Library Virtual Summer Reading Room.  MEL.org had a terrific template to which I added. I added a librarian emoji and an animal emojis. I put links on to them. To create these emojis I drew them on paper (except for the dinosaur) and colored them with alcohol markers. Then I scanned them and opened them in Paint 3D to edit them, and make an emoji character. I loved using art and technology together. Many of the links around the room link to our library or outside events. I hope you enjoy it!
