I remember these posters in the library when I was growing up.
The Greatest Posters of Celebrities Urging You to Read
In Which James Folta Bravely Attempts to Rank the Iconic ALA Series
By James Folta
July 18, 2024 The American Library Association has for nearly 40 years been putting out “Read” posters featuring celebrities and books. Lots of us remember these from school and libraries—my elementary school had the Shaq one guarding the reference books section.
Nhen I set out to compile a list of these posters, my initial thought was to gather all of them, but I quickly found that to be impossible: There are so many of them. Just, so many. And until some enterprising library sciences student puts together the definitive archive, we’re stuck scouring the ALA website and eBay poster reseller pages.
