Book Review: Patron Review!

An hour into my work day, our new library assistant showed me this:

A patron book review!

When I started at my branch last July, I wanted to put a "patron review" card in the back of each book. The cards are really simple; four patrons spaces are provided and once a person has finished the book, they're given the chance to write a few thoughts about the book.  The bottom of each card advertises our branch's Facebook page.  We print the cards on old fliers, unwanted print jobs, etc.  it's a great way to recycle used paper.  

The twitter name (blacked out for privacy concerns) caught my eye.  I think it's really cool that besides reviewing the book, the person listed their twitter name.  Hopefully another patron will message them and they can share some book suggestions!  

If you can't read the writing, the review reads, "This is a story that the young and young-at-heart can enjoy.  Beyond totally awesome."  

I'll post more of these as I find them!
