To all of you attending the Annual ALA Conference in Orlando, consider taking the time to come to ALSC's Book Evaluation and Discussion Group. The meeting will take place on Monday, June 28 from 2-4 p.m. The description is below:
Talk About Books
The art of book discussion is a learned skill: one must practice, read, and practice some more. Participants will pre-register and be assigned a small list of books. Each person reads his/her titles, takes notes, and prepares for a critical, facilitated discussion of those books. Great for those brand-new to children's services, those from small systems eager to talk about books with colleagues, and those who just love a good book discussion. To pre-register for the discussion group, call the ALSC Office at (800) 545$33, ext. 2166, or e-mail Meredith Parets at mparets at ala.org. For more information about the book discussion, contact Melissa Yurechko at melissay at darien.lib.ct.us .
The book list is available on ALSC's website detailing their events and programs in Orlando, but I have attached
it here as well. Happy reading!
