Oh my goodness! We love this library upcycling and placemaking initiative from Ontario! So creative. What a way to celebrate Family Literacy Day! @PPS_Placemaking @GlobalFRP @ONLibraryAssoc @FOPLnews @ONLibService @mlejobe
We 💙 our communities! We have upcycled the Summer Reading Club storywalk panels into blank tiles that you can pick up at any OCL branch, take home and decorate, and return to be featured in a Community Mosaic to be unveiled for Family Literacy Day at the end of January! 🎨

Thank you for this podcast and introducing me to Heather Weiss, I only learned of the Global Family Research Project this morning. I have recently completed a course in Family Engagement in Research and had my world expanded as to possibilities that now exist
