In a continuing effort to transform my library into a 21st Century Learning Commons, I decided to implement another one of the amazing Pam Harland's ideas. I asked my administrator if we could sell headphones in the library for students, and she granted permission! We are selling them for $.94 plus tax, making them an even dollar. A quick Amazon search later and I found these: TFD Supplies Wholesale Bulk Earbuds Headphones 100 Pack For Iphone, Android, MP3 Player $59.99 for 100 sets - not bad! They arrived quickly and were well packaged. I emailed the staff and let them know that students could come and purchase them during homeroom, lunch, and at dismissal.
I also put the word out with a few students and on Instagram. I did not directly advertise it (eg. on the morning announcements), and yet on the third day that they've been for sale, I have sold 11 sets so far. One staff member even purchased a pair as a stocking-stuffer gift!. Sounds like we are headed for success to me! I plan to announce that they are formally for sale next week - who knows, maybe I'll sell out by Friday!
