<div dir="ltr"><div>I recently sent the following out to our staff and got a great response. They are even using the slides comment feature to have an added dialogue about what they have read or have in common with other staff members' TBR lists. Thought I would share.</div><div><br></div><div>Email Text:</div><div><br></div><div><div>"As we are counting down the last few days of the year and coping with social distancing, I thought it would be fun to share reading recommendations with one another. I also thought about <span class="gmail-il">all</span> of the places we might <span class="gmail-il">all</span> like to go and the following quote came to mind. " Reading gives us someplace to go when we have to stay where we are."</div><div><br></div><div>With that as the basis. I would like you <span class="gmail-il">all</span> to create a slide with 3 components:</div><div>1. A book you would recommend</div><div>2. A book that is on your mental, virtual or physical To Be Read list</div><div>3. A visual of someplace you would like to go this summer</div><div><br></div><div>I have created a sample and a bunch of templates in the attached slide deck. To create your own slide, please duplicate or add a new slide. You are encouraged to be creative if you don't want to use a template. One winner will be selected at random to win the book of their choice (mailed direct from Amazon).
