New Episode of Shelf Care, Booklist's Podcast, Featuring Book Display Expert Lila Denning

The most recent episode of Shelf Care The Podcast hosted by my Booklist editor, Susan Maguire is now live. See the details below. 

But real quick, before I lose you to the episode (which is great) a quick reminder that Shelf Care is THE ONLY podcast out there with the mission of helping you, the library worker, serve your leisure readers.

I need you to sit with that for a moment. 

I know we all listen to many book podcasts, but no other podcast, besides Shelf Care from Booklist, is focused on you the library worker and all the ways we serve our readers-- of all ages. And it is from a trusted not for profit publication. 

Why are you not subscribed? Well, don't worry about excuses, just fix that by subscribing wherever you listen to your podcasts.
