IRC Pinterest: Update

We've done a bit of organizing, rearranging and weeding of boards and pins, on the IRC Pinterest site.  Boards are now arranged by category and each has an introductory board (pictured left) with pins detailing what is featured in within each group.  A second 'bulletin board' pin describes how groups are arranged; for instance, group #2 Ellison Dies are displayed in alphabetical order.

All of our unique boards remain, including library memes and coloring pages, and new pins continue to be added to favorites such as Banned & Challenged Books & Wordless Picture Books.

Not familiar with the IRC on Pinterest? April is National Poetry Month, visit our page for a great selection of poetry resources, the Poetry Month board features juvenile & YA poetry and poetry titles from the library's juvenile collection.

Follow IRC's board National Poetry Month on Pinterest.
