Check Out Library Reads for Book Recommendations

I love making book recommendations through the Readers' Corner blog, the T-SPL Facebook page, and through in-person interactions.  It's one of those cool things I get to do at my job!  But I also love to speak with fellow librarians and receive recommendations for titles I missed.

There is a terrific new resource I would like to share with you called LibraryReads.  This is a program designed for librarians from around the country to make book recommendations.  The top ten titles of the month are then shared on the website!  What makes this program especially wonderful is the fact that multiple publishers are involved, including Random House, Hachette Book Group, HarperCollins, and Penguin.  The love of reading and making recommendations is bringing these publishers and librarians together.

Check out the November LibraryReads list:
