Are you looking for a friendly and fun way to introduce the library to potential new users? If so, consider taking a look at the
graphic novel Legends of the Library Ninjas created by students, staff, and librarians at Kansas State University Salina and Kansas Wesleyan University. The graphic novel tells the story of two students as they wander into their college library to do research for a paper (assigned their first day of class!). The students have no clue where to start…. until the Library Ninjas enter the scene!! Be sure to check out Legends of the Library Ninjas and read Library Journal’s review of the graphic novel, too!

Just for Fun: The Smell of Books
Purely for fun… Have you seen the Smell of Books http://smellofbooks.com/ website? Hilariously silly! I’ll have to buy myself a can of the ‘Eau You Have Cats” spray!
What Should I Read Next?
Have you checked out the all new “What Should I Read Next?” http://whatshouldireadnext.com site? Fresh for fall 2012, this is a fun way to get your reading list in order for all that cozy reading time you’re planning! Type in the title or author of your choice (preferably one you loved!) and up pops a list of suggested titles. The list of suggested titles populates from user’s favorites lists – and the more times the titles appear together on user’s lists, the higher the title moves up on the recommendation list. Pretty nifty… but, will never beat reader’s advisory or book talks! 😉 Use it with your patrons and students, too!
