Our Books, Your Art

Post date: Nov 05, 2014 4:35:18 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 for awesome annual ADOPT A BOOK fundraiser. We will choose the top designs for our catalog of choices.

Download the submission form and make YOUR mark on the library today ... or no later than Mon. November 17 to be considered for the first round!

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