Billboard Bingo!

MBLC has dedicated funds for promotional materials for the 2006 Statewide Summer Reading Program. Participating MA Regional Library System Members should feel free to download and use this graphic to publicize the MA Statewide Summer Reading Program. The Billboard will be appearing in 36 locations around the commonwealth.

What else can you do with the billboards? Play Billboard Bingo! Libraries can download and modify this form. Customize with your library logo, change the cities and towns to more local or regional ones, add other events or attractions, add the newpaper ads or PSA's (credit for spotting or listening!) or add library activities. You can also decide how to verify billboards have been cited - a photo or illustration? a toll or gas receipt? a souvenir from nearby? or, simply trust? For a prize, coupons from our Summer Reading Sponsors would make a nifty reward!
