How Schools are using the READ Poster Campaign

• READ posters and movies - Dillon Two District, South Carolina
• READ posters of school staff like ALA's popular posters -  Wyckoff Schools - H. Olejarz used a 5 megapixel camera and printed 18 X 24 laminated posters
• FYI, Rucker Middle School uses the HP Designjet 800 for 24x36 READ posters. When they host  a discussion group they take a picture using the book to commemorate the occasion. Thanks to L. Jordan for this suggestion.
• FYI, Check with the Graphic Arts teachers in your high school or at Kinkos, etc. for poster printers.
