Draw Inside a Library Book!

Post date: Oct 21, 2013 4:24:34 PM

Bookplates, also known as ex-libris, are decorative labels placed in the front of books bearing the name of the owner. Simple or ornate, they often feature beautiful design and artwork.

All students are invited to submit designs for bookplates to commemorate donations to the Arlington High School Media Center through our ADOPT A BOOK program. Download the submission form or visit the Media Center for details and make YOUR mark on the library today!

To be considered for the first batch of bookplates, your design must be received by Ms. Kitsis in the Media Center no later than Friday, November 15th.

Questions? Stop by the Media Center or email Ms. Kitsis at skitsis@arlington.k12.ma.us.
