To Have & To Hold: Download and Print Our 125 Books We Love List
If you can't tell, we're excited about our recently released 125 Books We Love list. We hope it will inspire more people to read and share the books that made them #LoveReading. While it's fun to browse the list online where you can sort by genre or click through to the NYPL catalog, it's also nice to hold it in your hands (what can we say, we're paper people). So we've created a way to print your own copy of the list—refer to it when you're looking for your next great read, tally up the ones you've read and circle what's next, bring copies to your book club group, mail one to a friend. We won't even think it's weird if you want to stand on the street corner handing them out. (Ok, maybe that's a little weird.)
Have a computer, a printer, scissors and tape? Let's go!
Step 1: Download the 125 Books We Love list and print
Step 2: Cut the sections out and keep them in order
Step 3: Tape the sections together in order
Step 4: Fold the strip at each vertical line
Step 5: Fold the envelope on the dotted lines
Step 6: Flip the envelope over and tape the flaps closed
Step 7: Insert your folded list into the pocket. Start reading!
Here's the process in action!
