Reading Envy 027: A Conference of Librarians


Listen Later

What do you call a gathering of librarians? The ALA Think Tank group in Facebook recently had this discussion (you need a Facebook account to see it).  Jenny recently attended the Association for College and Research Libraries Conference in Portland, Oregon, and asked the librarians she met what they had read lately. We decided to make this a bonus episode of the podcast. Some of the members of Jenny's family also contributed. You will probably be impressed by the wide range of what librarians read.
