Carroll Education Foundation's Grant Recipients and Sponsors 2010

Movie trailers for books? The latest trend in the promotion of books to students is the electronic book trailer. Fast paced, visual and enticing, these summaries present the essence of the book’s message and plot. This grant enables both librarians and students to create trailers by providing software, licensing, displays and manuals loaded with ideas to fuel creativity. Students are able to express their love of books through images and music and experience the thrill of publication as their trailers are disseminated through the library displays and online.
