Today I wanted to point you to two important, NOT print, ways to access Booklist content right now.
First, there is a new episode of Booklist's ShelfCare the Podcast. It features staff from KDL in MI and is a summary of the presentation they gave at PLA in April, a session I went to and wrote up a recap about here. My write up and their appearance go well together.
Second, staff from Booklist Reader appeared on PBS Books to talk about Summer Reading. This is not only a great video to use to help you have conversations with your readers at the library, but also, put it up on your website for your patrons to use on their own as well. Just make sure you have the books and a subscription to Booklist Reader's print magazine (details here).
I have included the information from Booklist Online below or you can use the links embedded above.
Have a great weekend. I know many of you are about to launch Summer Reading tomorrow and into next week. It is a busy time, but also, one of the most exciting times of the year to work in a library. Enjoy. And Good luck!
By Susan Maguire.
On this episode of Shelf Care: The Podcast, host Susan Maguire sat down with Johanna Boyle and Marie Mulder from the Kent District Library in Michigan about the necessary work of the diversity audit, and what to do once the audit is done (hint: it involves spreadsheets). Then Audio Editor Heather Booth offers some solid suggestions for promoting your audiobook collection. Finally (oh, finally), Susan and Senior Editor, Books for Youth Maggie Reagan sat down for one last conversation about what Maggie is reading and loving, and what the heck romantasy means.
Here’s what we talked about:
The Final Strife, by Saara El-Afiri
Made Glorious, by Lindsay Eagar
I Loved You In Another Life, by David Arnold
