New Year's Resolutions for Readers
This list was actually complied and posted by Camille DelVecchio from the Penfield (NY) Public Library and sent to me from our Collection Development Manager, Barbara Baxter. Good suggestions for us all.
1. I will reread a book I loved as a child. 2. I will finally read that classic from high school that I've been avoiding. 3. I will find a book of poetry and read some aloud. 4. I will spend an hour in aimless browsing at a library. 5. I will read a book written in the year I was born. 6. I will create a journal and keep notes about the books and magazines I read. 7. I will assemble a list of my favorite people and send them my ideas about books (favorites, recent reads, and the like). 8. I will read a book to a child. 9. I will gather a few friends and read a play out loud. 10. I will read a book on the history of my town. 11. I will read a book written from a political point of view totally opposite my own. 12. I will read a book about a place I've never been. 13. I will reread a book that I just didn't "get" when I was eighteen. 14. I will read a book written by a non-American. 15. I will ask a librarian to show me some print and online resources for readers.
