Halloween: Nancy Drew Costume

While brainstorming a last-minute Halloween costume, I thought it would be fun to go as Nancy Drew circa 1930. Using the original covers as inspiration, I created this Polyvore set to brainstorm a costume in an ideal world.

Have you used literary characters as inspiration for a costume?

Site Updates

If you’re looking for youth services librarians on Twitter, I have a Twitter list of over 100 librarians who work with teens and tweens. I just added a widget to the blog’s sidebar that compiles all their tweets — check it out! Let me know if you want to be added to the list!

I also have an in progress listing of teen library websites from around the US and Canada. For many of the states, I’ve highlighted pages that are particularly awesome. Does your library have a teen site that’s not listed yet? Let me know!
