NYSED Summer Reading
Please note that the Summer Reading book lists for the Talking Book & Braille Library have been updated for 2022 and Oceans of Possibilities, and are now on the TBBL site at
https://www.nysl.nysed.gov/tbbl/summer.htm The updated lists are also linked from the Talking Book & Braille Library partner page on the Summer Reading site at https://www.summerreadingnys.org/librarians-educators/le-resources/ The lists contain oceanography and water-related titles for young patrons in audio and/or braille format.
Be sure to share these updates with your member libraries and encourage them to include young Talking Book & Braille Library patrons when promoting Summer Reading programs and activities.
We have also added a NEW page to the Summer Reading site, listing ocean and water-related resources and activities for Oceans of Possibilities. Find that new page at https://www.summerreadingnys.org/summer-reading-2022-activities/
And the Personal History Initiative page on the Summer Reading site has been updated for 2022. Find many creative ideas and projects to help support summer programming at https://www.summerreadingnys.org/nysl-covid-19-personal-history-initiative/
I hope this information is helpful to you and your libraries. Please let me know if you have any questions.
Best,
Sharon
