**Library Displays and Bulletin Boards**
 * Display booklist doc (update here)

Book Displays let the EHSS community (Students, teachers, parents - anyone who comes through the library even when we're not around) know about the books in our collection, particularly ones they may not know we have. **A good book display will draw people in, get them interested in reading.**
