I was watching all the public library blogs I monitor, as well as my Flickr feeds for Harry Potter coverage this weekend. I was so happy to see some nice coverage.
Remember, you could have written a HOT blog post about the boxes arriving and the super secret security surrounding the books until release. I love these images on Flickr – tagged “Harry Potter” and “library.”
Thanks Canton!
I blogged the Allen County Public Library Harry Potter Release party. I have several posts telling about what the ACL did and with pictures and a video of it also.
It was amazing and I hope people check out what one library gave to its community. Thank you ACPL!
Here is the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-3nxu7Oaduw and here is the flickr pictures:

I am doing a competition for the boys in our school library. If they answer 7 questions right on the blog, two students get to borrow HPaDH first or other paraphernalia about HP.

Like other libraries, the Harry Potter books and CDs arrived before the street date of 7/21. I actually held the CDs in my hands and took a photo of them (still in their shrink wrap) but the library staff who had access to the books kept them locked away. The legalese that we had to sign to even get our copies was very scary; that’s why I think there weren’t more photos like this. It was so scary I didn’t even post the photo I took in case it would get us in trouble!
Blogged about the book here:

I’m going to post a rundown of our excellent library party on my blog soon.
Here are photos from our Big Harry Hullabaloo:

I wasn’t directly involved in the event, but I did get Flickr unblocked from our library computers and started our Flickr account.
