Have you ever wondered how your local library gets its books? Who makes the decisions about which titles appear on your local library's shelves, and how are those tough decisions made?

On this week's episode of Beyond Books - the St. John's Public Libraries podcast and radio program - we speak with Emily Blackmore, lending services librarian who orders adult fiction for the library system, about what goes into this process.

And of course, tune in for plenty of library events updates and a couple book reviews! Beyond Books airs every second Monday at 4pm on 93.5fm or online at chmr.ca!
