BubbleUp Take5: Our Most Popular Posts for Librarians

For this week's Take5 we are highlighting BubbleUp Classroom's five most popular posts for librarians. These posts struck a chord with teachers and librarians alike. Some have been read by over 20,000 people (which made our little blog project feel like it wasn't so little any more)! If you have been with us since we began our blog in 2016, we hope that you enjoy this little virtual trip down memory lane. 

We've had fun revisiting some of our favorite library moments and we hope you do too.  If these posts are new to you, we hope you find them thought provoking as you plan for the upcoming school year and share them with colleagues!  Our new students will be here before we know it!

2. ​Thinking About Becoming a School Librarian. Read this first.  It's an awesome job -- jump into this field for all the right reasons.
   
   
3. ​A Delicious Literacy Treat. Everything you need to host a book tasting for your students.  One of our favorite ways to engage students with books.
   
   
4. ​New Librarian? Start Here. Four key things to accomplish as you begin your new role.​
   
   
5. Librarians. Build Your Brand. Convinced branding is just for corporate executives? Think again.
