Join us for next week’s NCompass Live, ‘Reader of the Week’, on Wednesday, Nov. 30, 10:00-11:00 am Central Time.
The session will describe the Morton-James Public Library’s Reader of the Week initiative, begun in January 2016. Partnering with their local newspaper, library staff provided content for a weekly feature touted “Reader of the Week.” The column included readers talking about what they read and why. The session will include commentary on how this feature has transformed their conversations with library users from mere transactions to engaged descriptions of what people are reading, and want to read.
Presenter: Denise Davis, Reference Librarian, Morton-James Public Library, Nebraska City, NE.
