Episode 711: Reading Beyond Books


Listen Later

Thank you for joining us on the SEVENTH SEASON of our Reader's Advisory podcast! We are so glad you're here to join us. We always enjoy our book group podcast, and we hope you do, too! It's hard to be an expert on ALL of the great books out there! So we pick a new genre each week to chat about and hopefully provide you with some insight into what may be an unfamiliar genre! You can find our full show notes page here, with links to the beverages we are enjoying and the resources we share today. This week we have an interesting development in the book group discussion: Reading, but not reading books! Of course, we love books. But today we want to talk about some other strategies for reading, and writing, that we can promote in libraries. And we have a good Guest Host to help us do this! Noah Lenstra is an Assistant Professor of Library and Information Science at University of North Carolina Greensboro. He is also the founder of the Let's Move in Libraries organization. Their website gives a lot of good information: "Everyone has a role to play in increasing healthy living, including libraries! Let's Move in Libraries is an international initiative to get people of all ages and abilities on the path to health. With their impressive reach and great potential for impact, public libraries can and do support healthy communities through StoryWalks®, seed collections, Yoga classes, gardens, cooking classes, and much, much more. Through Let's Move in Libraries, public libraries can come together with partners to answer the call to action."
