A World War I vintage poster by John E Sheridan drawn for an American Library Association book drive. January 1, 1918. This came from Wikimedia. I really like Wikimedia. Daily Thoughts 5/9/2009
I enjoyed reading an article from the May 1, 2009 Library Journal, Publishers and Librarians, Two Cultures One Goal, on Pp. 22-25. It is a short article comparing a day in the life of an editor and a librarian. There is a link at the end of the article on marketing book to libraries. http://www.libraryjournal.com/publishers .
I went through my typical reading this morning, Booklist, Library Journal, and Publishers Weekly. I have to read fast because I have so much to read and look at. I also looked through the Public Library Core Collection, Nonfiction, Thirteenth Edition for books to possibly purchase in the 800 dewey number.
