"This looks interesting...." by Elizabeth Krebs, Public Services Librarian Finding something good to read can be a challenge. There are many ways to hear about a book: TV, magazine, friend, reviews and best-seller lists, and the librarians at your favorite public library. As I look through the new books, to ascertain where in the library they can best be placed, some of them are so fascinating, it is all I can do to not stop working and start reading them. But … everyday new books arrive so I must keep doing. “This looks interesting ….” is my attempt to share with you things that are not in the mainstream and may be a bit obscure or offbeat, but look interesting and are worth checking out by someone other than me. I hope something catches your eye. Let me know, Elizabeth K. |
