Along with our colleagues in the Archives and Rare Books (ARB) Library, the CECH Library had the opportunity to host elementary and college students from the College Mentors for Kids program on October 24th and 25th.
Coordinated by Rachel Hoople, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 6th grade students from Oyler School and Evanston Elementary learned about curating library displays during their time in CECH. Students and mentors also worked together to build their own displays, selecting a theme, choosing library materials to highlight on that theme, and creating eye-catching visual elements.
As you can see, the students did a great job (and had fun) selecting themes, materials, and making the displays visually appealing for our users.
The library displays by College Mentors for Kids will be available in the CECH Library through November.
