[aisle] Comic Books?

[Holtz, Alan C. (BMS)]

YES!!!

I pick up the comic books up from Graham Crackers Comics. I visit the Downers Grove store because Jim, the manager, was so helpful getting my school signed up for Free Comic Book Day about 3 or 4 years ago.

Titles: Our 10 most popular (this school year) are:
1.
[Serial]
The Amazing Spider-Man.


2.
[Serial]
Batman.


3.
[Serial]
Venom.


4.
[Serial]
The Flash.


5.
[Serial]
Justice League.


6.
[Serial]
The Joker
.


7.
[Serial]
Thor.


8.
[Serial]
Flashpoint beyond.


9.
[Serial]
Venom: : Leathal protector.


10.
[Serial]
Star Wars.



We check ‘em out just like the books.

Processing: We place the comics in comic book bags with cardboard backers. Some get mangled because the comic books are delicate. I use grant money to pay for it. One of the evaluation lines includes that the comics will get destroyed as a sign of a successful grant. The book drop eats comic books. To protect the comics, we have a special bin for returning the comics.

Enjoy,
Alan Holtz, Librarian serving Brooks Middle School in Bolingbrook

Good morning!
Do any of you have comic book subscriptions for your middle school or high school libraries?
If you do:
Where do you order them?
Which titles are most popular?
Do you check them out or are they for in-library use only?
How do you process them to help keep them from falling apart?

Something I'm considering for next year & would love some input.

Thanks!
Anita
