After much consolidation of information by our lovely Reading Reps, we have the results of their 'Parent Reading Habits' survey! It turns out that parents of OLS students love to read :) -58% of those surveyed read on a daily basis. The other 42% varied between, every few days, once a week or less often. -61% prefer to read in the evening, while 29% like to read at any opportunity! -55% spend around 30 minutes reading at a time, while 30% read for an hour or more, and the rest 20 minutes or less. -Fiction, biographies, and specifically crime fiction and mysteries are the most popular types of books with OLS parents! -And finally, from the MANY listed favourite books, the most common ones were 'The Book Thief' by Markus Zuzak, 'The Kite Runner' by Khaled Hosseini, 'Pride and Prejudice' by Jane Austen, and 'The Girl on the Train' by Paula Hawkins. Well done to the parents for even deciding on favourites, we know how hard it is! Thank you so much for taking part in the survey, and a very well done to the Reading Reps for carrying out the survey and for tallying the results!

OLS Book Club and the CBI Book Awards!

Our Book Club are delighted to be part of the CBI Book Awards Shadowing Scheme this year! Established in 2005, the CBI Shadowing Scheme is a unique programme for schools and libraries, designed to encourage awareness and enjoyment of the CBI Book of the Year Awards. How it works Each of our Book Club members will read at least two of the choices (which are age appropriate!) by the 10th of May. Up until then we will discuss how our reading is going, and pair up with readers on the same book to discuss them more in depth and to avoid spoilers for others! On the 10th of May, we will each give the books we have read a number of marks out of 100. We will then average the marks for each book and fill out our special CBI Book Awards Ballot Sheet and send it back! It will be very exciting to see if any of our favourites end up getting the Children's Choice Award! Another extremely exciting aspect of being a part of the Shadowing Scheme is that by returning our votes by the 12th of May, we will be in with a chance of attending the CBI Book of the Year Awards ceremony in Dublin's Smock Alley Theatre on 23rd May as part of International Literature Festival Dublin!! Book nerds unite! CBI will announce the Children’s Choice Award during the official prize ceremony in May. The shadowing groups alone choose the Children's Choice winner so every vote counts! Look out for CBI's Q&A with shortlisted authors and illustrators on Instagram (@kidsbooksirel) and check out their YouTube channel (CBI-Childrens' Books Ireland) for lots more. Anybody who is not currently in Book Club, but who would like to be part of the Shadowing Scheme can come and join us on Wednesdays for the 2nd half of lunch! To see more about our choices, or for more booky news, head to the library's website ourladyslibrary.wordpress.com/2017/04/07/cbi-book-of-the-year-awards-shadowing-scheme-2017/ Here are the four books that we have chosen...
