Lili Cantu, BookSpring BookClub coordinator, is making great strides with the BookClubs being offered by BookSpring at local AISD elementary schools.
BookSpring as been piloting an experimental voucher program with parents at Blanton, Jordan, Dawson and Metz elementary schools. When parents attend a book club at the school, they receive a voucher to exchange for coupons, t-shirts, booklights,etc. when they visit the local Austin public library. Many parents do not make the local library part of their routine and unfortunately have never visited their local branch.
Well that is changing…. thanks to BookSpring and Lili!
Of the parents attending, over 65% have visited the library and over 50% have made multiple trips!!!
“Parents have brought library books to class to share with their fellow parents, told us about checking out parenting books for themselves to help with parenting challenges, and told us about getting kicked out of the library because they stayed past closing time! We are very excited by these results, and hope to continue this partnership next semester and beyond!” Lili Cantu
