I was one of the speakers this past Wednesday at the workshop named above and thought it would be useful to post the handout, which lists links to book blogs and resources for librarians (and readers too). My part of the presentation was about online resources for finding good titles for book club discussion and resources for book group members. The presentation was part of the Adult Services Forum, organized by the Reference Section of the New Jersey Library Assoc.
The links on the list include sites for mystery, science fiction, romance, and literary fiction readers; sites like Early Word and Shelf Awareness to help keep up with what’s going on in the book world and publishing industry; and other interesting sites that will surely eat up your time but, hey, you probably won’t be sorry.
