Bin Dumped!

 Leighton Buzzard's Teen Reading Group, Novelteens, went on a book buy to Waterstones in Milton Keynes.  The aim was to choose books that we wanted to see in the Teen Library, as well as thinking about the types of books other people of our age would like.  Most of the  books chosen were non-fiction and on a wide range of subjects, ranging from campervans to fashion and an awful lot more.........

After we'd chosen the books and indulged in a well-earned snack break (book buying is hard work!), our meeting was arranged for the following month.  We needed to think of a name for the new collection and the name decided upon was Bin Dumped - why? - because the books would be displayed in what  the library people call "dump bins."

We designed a sticker  to put on the front of the books in the collection so that they could be easily identified and displayed in the same area and then, once the books arrived at Leighton Buzzard, we had to  process them with collection stickers, date labels, book covers etc

Finally the collection was ready! We designed posters using the photos that were taken during the book buy  to decorate the Teen Library and at the last Novelteens' meeting, "Bin Dumped" was launched.

Now come and borrow them!   And join Novelteens of course.
