Til Death Do Us Part
by Amanda Quick
Published: 4/19/2016 by Berkley
ISBN: 9780399174469
“Gothic atmosphere meets tender romance in Quick’s latest Victorian era tour
de force. Calista Langley asks crime novelist Trent Hastings for assistance in
unmasking a twisted secret admirer that seems to have singled her out, and the
two become tangled up in more than just an investigation. Quick perfectly
balances setting, characters, plot, and relationship development–the end result
being a story that will delight her legion of fans, as well as earn her new ones.”

Making a case for providing and developing readers - Melanie Mutch

PublicLibraryServices

This document discusses the importance and benefits of providing readers' advisory (RA) services in libraries. It defines RA as a reader-focused service where knowledgeable library staff help patrons with their leisure reading needs. The document questions why libraries should invest in promoting leisure reading and what constitutes a good RA service. It also examines how libraries can measure the effectiveness of their RA and the benefits of reading, such as reducing stress and depression. The document outlines various types of RA services libraries provide, including self-directed services using displays and printed materials, reading-oriented programs, digitally-based services using websites and newsletters, staff training, and tracking customer interactions. It provides examples of specific RA services and programs offered by different libraries and emphasizes how

The document summarizes plans for a proposed new library building in Henrietta, NY to replace the current library built in 1978. Key points include that the current building no longer meets the community's needs, renovating would be too costly, and a new 36,000 square foot building is proposed to be built on donated land next to the recreation center. The community will vote on a bond referendum on November 7 to fund the new $12.5 million building.

Fall 2013 Issue of "Florida Libraries"

Maria Gebhardt

This article describes how the Jane Bancroft Cook Library at New College of Florida transitioned from separate circulation and reference desks staffed by dedicated departments to an integrated service desk and then to a single circulation and referral desk (CRC). The CRC is now staffed by support staff from various library departments on a rotating basis. This change eliminated the circulation department and allowed librarians to focus on reference services and projects while support staff handle basic transactions and referrals. The new model distributes work more evenly across staff.

Comic Gong is an annual comic convention event held at Wollongong City Library that has grown significantly since its inception in 2013. It was created to promote the library's graphic novel collection, foster community engagement, and provide a youth-focused free event. Over the years it has increased attendance from over 1,000 to nearly 6,000 people, required more extensive staffing and planning, and led to major growth of the library's graphic novel collections. It has also been successful in attracting new members and increasing other library programs and services, establishing the library as a center for pop culture in the community. Plans are underway to continue expanding the popular event in 2017.

This document summarizes the results of a survey conducted by the Society of Authors on author visits to schools. The key findings were: 1) 154 schools responded reporting over 1,400 author visits, and 99% felt author visits were highly valuable in encouraging reading for pleasure and creative writing. 2) Schools reported that author visits inspired pupils, increased library use and reading diversity, and built confidence in reluctant readers. 3) Visits were found to boost reading for pleasure and benefit reluctant and special education readers by growing their confidence. 4) While funding can be challenging, schools found ways to afford visits through various means like collaborating with other schools or publishers.

This presentation discusses building a love of reading for students in the context of Common Core State Standards. It emphasizes giving students choice in books, providing class time for independent reading, engaging read alouds, tracking reading rates and reflections, partnering with the library, conferring with students, and advertising books. While districts may require basals, teachers can still incorporate independent reading by finding time for it, even if just 10 minutes, and encouraging reading in other moments like waiting in lines. The goal is developing motivated, engaged readers through these strategies.

Readers advisory ideas with notes - Melanie Mutch

PublicLibraryServices

This document provides ideas for libraries to implement readers' advisory services with limited resources. It suggests focusing on passive or self-directed services like book displays, lists of staff picks, and shelf talkers to promote titles. Form-based readers' advisory allows patrons to fill out a survey about their preferences to get tailored book recommendations. Getting other staff involved can increase a sense of ownership while training helps improve skills. Metrics like circulation statistics before and after promotions can demonstrate the value of readers' advisory services.

UKDSCensus

This document discusses evaluating the feasibility of using administrative data for population statistics from the UK census. It outlines some key issues with using administrative data like coverage lags, definitional differences, and changes to administrative processes. The document presents ONS's framework for assessing data quality which involves comparing administrative sources to census estimates and linking records across sources. Examples show differences in population counts between administrative data and census estimates can arise from lags in administrative data updating locations as well as list cleaning exercises. Producing household statistics from administrative sources also poses challenges due to limited address and relationship information.

Readers advisory services_in_public_libraries

10-30-06

Reader's advisory services involve librarians suggesting fiction and nonfiction titles to patrons based on their interests. This helps patrons find books to read for pleasure. While readers' advisory has been around since the 1920s, it reemerged as a focus over the past 20 years. Librarians now take a less didactic approach, seeing recreational reading as worthwhile. Direct readers' advisory focuses on a reader's likes and dislikes, while indirect involves pre-made booklists. Libraries provide various tools, both print and electronic, to help librarians match patrons to titles. Mastering readers' advisory requires being an avid reader oneself and ongoing learning.

Janecatalla

Readers' advisory services aim to match patrons with books they will enjoy reading for pleasure. While once focused on directing patrons only towards "better" books, readers' advisory now emphasizes recreational reading and respecting individual tastes. Librarians can provide advisory assistance using both print and electronic resources, and their skills are valuable for attracting patrons and supporting the library.

Readers advisory services final

10-30-06

Readers' advisory services aim to match patrons with books they will enjoy reading for pleasure. This library service helps patrons select recreational reading materials. It has evolved from a prescriptive model in the early 20th century focused on "better books" to a more patron-oriented approach that values fiction reading. Readers' advisory librarians now use various print and electronic resources, as well as their own reading knowledge, to suggest titles to patrons based on books they have enjoyed previously. The goal is to foster enjoyment of reading and support for the library.

Reader's Advisory Recap & Genres

hcplharriet

Reader's advisory involves connecting patrons to books through a variety of techniques. It helps patrons understand their reading tastes and can be applied to both fiction and non-fiction materials. To be effective, reader's advisors should read widely across genres, learn to think of related books, and familiarize themselves with review and book resources both online and in print. The reader's advisory interview involves listening to the patron, asking descriptive questions, restating their interests, and providing options without judgment.

Passive Reader’s Advisory

kmarszycki

Reader's advisory is a service that involves suggesting fiction and nonfiction titles to patrons through direct or indirect means. Public libraries offer RA to satisfy patrons, encourage a wide range of reading, and suggest alternatives to increase circulation. Effective RA starts conversations and makes connections between readers and materials. It is important for libraries to balance information access, recreational reading, and programming. RA helps patrons who are overwhelmed by choices or have limited browsing time by using face-out displays, read-alike lists, and online resources to introduce new materials. The ultimate goal of RA is for each patron to leave the library with a book.

EI Statistical Review of World Energy 2024

Energy for One World

FT author Amanda Chu US Energy Reporter ‌ ‌ PREMIUM June 20 2024 Good morning and welcome back to Energy Source, coming to you from New York, where the city swelters in its first heatwave of the season. Nearly 80 million people were under alerts in the US north-east and midwest yesterday as temperatures in some municipalities reached record highs in a test to the country’s rickety power grid. In other news, the Financial Times has a new Big Read this morning on Russia’s grip on nuclear power. Despite sanctions on its economy, the Kremlin continues to be an unrivalled exporter of nuclear power plants, building more than half of all reactors under construction globally. Read how Moscow is using these projects to wield global influence. Today’s Energy Source dives into the latest Statistical Review of World Energy, the industry’s annual stocktake of global energy consumption. The report was published for more than 70 years by BP before it was passed over to the Energy Institute last year. The oil major remains a contributor. Data Drill looks at a new analysis from the World Bank showing gas flaring is at a four-year high. Thanks for reading, Amanda Was this forwarded to you?

New report offers sobering view of the energy transition ‌ ‌ Every year the Statistical Review of World Energy offers a behemoth of data on the state of the global energy market. This year’s findings highlight the world’s insatiable demand for energy and the need to speed up the pace of decarbonisation. Here are our four main takeaways from this year’s report: Fossil fuel consumption — and emissions — are at record highs Countries burnt record amounts of oil and coal last year, sending global fossil fuel consumption and emissions to all-time highs, the Energy Institute reported. Oil demand grew 2.6 per cent, surpassing 100mn barrels per day for the first time. Meanwhile, the share of fossil fuels in the energy mix declined slightly by half a percentage point, but still made up more than 81 per cent of consumption.
