Readers' Avisory
Event Description
Readers' Advisory can feel scary because we want our patrons to leave the library with books that are perfect for their mood. Keeping up with the book world can be a daunting task, too. Learn some basic skills that will help you provide good RA service and be a more informed and passionate Readers' Advisor.
Learning Objectives:
Mary Olson is Readers' Advisory Librarian at Medina County District Library. Her duties include training, direct service to book clubs, promotional writing, collection development, and programming. She is the 2015 Allie Beth Martin award winner and the 2016 Pat Carterette Award winner.
Learning Objectives:
- Define Readers' Advisory service in a public library.
- Talk about appeal factors with patrons and listen actively to readers.
- Use common resources to make reading suggestions and expand their own knowledge of popular books.
