Now, they can reach beyond the library walls and local communities and tell the rest of the country about the books they can’t wait to share. Launched in Fall 2013, LibraryReads harnesses the value of “library staff picks” into a single nation-wide discovery tool. Attendees will find out how LibraryReads enhances readers’ advisory services and provides staff with professional development and marketing opportunities. The nuts and bolts of obtaining ARCs (advance reading copies) and the nomination process will also be covered
