 The first day of the 2009 Summer Reading Club should be a day for celebration. Especially because this year's SRC is better than ever before! We are providing a full online experience for customers; each online SRC registration will be activated immediately. Adults who finish the program are eligible for win a pair of BalletMet tickets, OSU commemorative coins, Joe Blundo’s column collection, Dancing Dads, Defective Peeps, and Buckeye Misadventures, and a Library tote bag and mug. This year, however, the loss of Mr. Boddy during the Ice Cream Social has cast a shadow over seasonal festivities. In the words of the mysterious scroll: "Mr. Boddy's death touches everyone in this building - and each staff member is implicated until we unravel the mystery and discover the truth." Throughout the summer, Main library staff members are invited to follow the clues, and challenged to try to solve the mystery. Staff members can earn individual points throughout the summer for: 1. Participating in the mystery by posting a response to the daily blog entry 2. Asking five/more people to sign up for SRC 3. Shelving a cart of books 4. Working one hour in another division 5. Additional opportunities to earn points will be posted on this blog! *If you do items 2, 3, or 4, in order to receive your point, you are required to post a blog comment, stating what you have done. Staff members can earn points for their division by visiting the location-of-the-week, and then returning to their own division and initialing the Division Gameboard. At the end of the summer: - The division with the highest rate of staff participation wins a pizza party. - Individuals with the most points win tickets to the Columbus Museum of Art |
