I am excited for my upcoming Follett Software webinar, Reigniting Student Reading Engagement in a Digital World on March 12, 2026  at 2:00pm CST. 

As shared in the invite, 

Students today face more distractions than ever before—but libraries and educators still play a powerful role in helping them connect deeply with books and with each other.

Join award-winning teacher-librarian Shannon McClintock Miller as she shares actionable strategies to spark meaningful reading engagement across your school or district.

In this live session, you’ll learn how to:

  • Foster a culture of reading through student-led initiatives
  • Use digital tools to make reading more accessible and fun
  • Track progress and celebrate success in ways that resonate with today’s learners

Whether you’re a librarian, teacher, or site administrator, you’ll leave with ideas you can implement right away—and fresh inspiration for the year ahead.

Join Me Today For The New Capstone Webinar To Learn About Team Cute or Team Gross and How I Used It To Create Our 2026 March Book Madness!

I have been working on a fun new March Book Madness for this year.  I used the Capstone Cute vs Gross campaign from the Spring 2025 catalog and other resources they have created and shared. 

It turned out so cute and fun!  I am excited for our students and teachers to participate.  

In fact, I want to share everything I created with all of you! 

Today at 4:00pm CST, in my webinar with Capstone, Team Cute or Team Gross, Activating Student Voice Through Library Voting, I will share this easy way to get students talking, reading, and coming back for more.  

This high-energy session is packed with: 
  • A simple, ready-to-use student voting activation you can set up in minutes.
  • Easy ways to advocate for high-engagement titles in your library. 
  • Plug-and-play ideas that spark participation and circulation. 
  • A chance to WIN adorable or hilariously gross door decor, bookmarks, stickers, and cute and gross books for your library! 
You will have everything you need at the end of this webinar to bring this to your library and readers too.


Everyone who registers and attends will be entered to WIN the prize pack too! 

I can't wait to see you there, friends. 💜
