STOP and Pick Up a Book at Johnstown High School’s
BookCrossing Zone
Students
in Mrs. Bacon’s World Literature class have established
Johnstown High School as a BookCrossing zone. The World
Literature class has partnered with School Librarian Dylan
Thomarie, to register Johnstown High School’s library as a
zone for people to acquire traveling books.
The idea behind BookCrossing is to read a book, register it
at
www.bookcrossing.com, journal a review of the book, and
then release the book anywhere for others to enjoy.
Sometimes books are left in coffee shops, on park benches,
or stationary places such as Johnstown High School.
