The Passive Programming Playbook: 101 Ways to Get Library Customers Off the Sidelines, Paperback/Paula Willey

Passive programming is a cheap, quick, fun way to make all library customers feel like part of the community. It can support reading initiatives, foster family engagement, encourage visit frequency, and coax interaction out of library lurkers--while barely making a dent in your programming budget. Passive programming can be targeted at children, teens, adults, or seniors; used to augment existing programs; and executed in places where staff-led programming can't reach. It can be light-footed, spontaneous, and easily deployed to reflect and respond to current news, media, library events, and even the weather. But even passive programming pros run out of ideas sometimes, and when that happens, they want a fresh, funny source of inspiration. Paula Willey is a children's librarian in Baltimore, MD. She has written about children's literature and family engagement for publications such as School Library Journal , the Baltimore Sun , Booklist , VOYA , and Baltimore's Child. Andria L. Amaral plans and develops public library programs and collections and services for students in grades 6-12. She serves on the board of the YALLFest young adult literature festival.
