Comics in the Library
A recent copy of Library Administrator's Digest that circulated at the BAPL mentioned an effort to induce kids to read by supplying comics to kids otherwise disinclined. Baltimore School Superintendent Nancy S. Gramich, an Archie comicbook fan as a kid, has introduced this concept to the library.
