I’ve mentioned my Bookmark People work before but, here’s a typical example where the ‘public library model’ and the ‘educational model’ of bookmark distribution needed to be re-managed to achieve specifically targeted distribution to suit all parties. Ongoing use of the Local Public Library Bookmarks by our ‘supermarket’ client was proving successful. I’ve highlighted before how I produced […]

A good book can be good for you… and our public libraries know that better than most! As part of my work with ‘Bookmark People’, we’ve seen Public Libraries’ Health and Well-being collections frequently promoted using our promotional bookmarks. You can see a selection of Health campaigns here: Health and Wellbeing Library Bookmark Campaigns A core objective of all public […]
April 2015, it’s now been 4 years since I started riding my bike to work. Give or take a few days, I’ve ridden the bike through rain, hail, snow, storm, wind, and blazing sun. I stopped religiously recording the miles a few years back, but I tally more than 3000 miles a year just with […]

It found […]

It speaks for itself so I wont prattle on like I did in the last post, just pop back and read it if you missed it. ‘Awareness’ “focusing one’s awareness on the present moment, […]
…yawn! Ahgh… here he goes again, yadda yadda ‘mindfulness’ yadda… “a mental state achieved by focusing one’s awareness on the present moment, while calmly acknowledging and accepting one’s feelings, thoughts, and bodily sensations…” I know mindfulness is the buzz-thing at the moment, you can’t go anywhere without hearing about the wonders of McMindfulness. And, yes […]
“There are worse crimes than burning books. One of them is not reading them.” Ray Bradbury I recently produced some material below for Bookmark People. “Reading takes you further…” I guess it follows on from my previous “reading” graphic that I produced. See here:
I don’t usually like recommending stuff, and I guess I am not doing that now – “horses for courses” and all that but… Over the last few years I have enjoyed many of Simon Parke’s books (I’ve yet to venture into the Abbot Peter Mysteries but IMHO the other stuff is “good stuff”). I have […]
