   Displays are an integral part of any school activity or situation and are well suited to the library resource centre environment due to the availability (in most cases) of both space and resources.

A good display is the result of careful thought and planning.

Why have displays?

Displays can:

  • develop understandings of curriculum or learning area content
  • inform and explain
  • enhance the appearance of the LRC and create an atmosphere conducive to learning publicise resources
  • motivate users
  • highlight school and community activities
  • provide a showplace for students' work
