Frommer's Library Display Contest



How do you travel with Frommer's? That's the question asked as libraries from across the country put their marketing talents to the test. And since Beatties Ford Road Library can hang with the best of them, we decided to answer the question with a display of our own. A map of the world serves as the backdrop of the display created by BFR staffers; Teresa Clay, Elisha Minter and Malcolm Plummer. The display is draped with all the essentials needed for a good trip. There's the dressed to impress tourist who's ready to assimilate into other cultures. And with the plethora of disposable cameras and Frommer's tour books, she's ready to go. Check out our display at Picasa.
