Here is an example of a post featured on the Sage Libraries Blog promoting the libraries' Goodreads group. The Albany Library has a collection of popular fiction books called Lobby Books. As the name suggest, these books are located on the first floor of the library just to the right of the circulation desk when you walk in. The collection was established in the Spring 2010 semester and is still growing. Here's some of the books in the collection:
Pride and Prejudice (Graphic Novel) by Nancy Butler
Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life by Barbara Kingsolver
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
Moo by Jane Smiley
Ghost World by Daniel Clowes
A Single Man by Christopher Isherwood
The Blind side: The Evolution of a Game by Michael Lewis
A Reliable Wife by Robert Goolrick
Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell by Susanna Clarke
Check out the Sage Libraries Goodreads page for the complete listing of the books in the Lobby Collection. Join the group and give us your book suggestions or leave us your suggestions here.
