      Description

The regional library systems are again collaborating in a statewide 
videoconference. This time we are focusing on readers' advisory.

*What's on Your Playlist?: Making the Most of Listener's Advisory* 
presented by Jenny Greene, Leslie Mallon, and Teanna Gildersleeve all of 
Cleveland Heights-University Heights Public Library
What do a Librarian, a Technical Services Assistant, and an 
Administrative Assistant all have in common? A love of music. Indeed, 
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow said it best when he stated, "Music is the 
universal language of mankind." This lively program is presented from 
the perspective of music lovers and will introduce Music Advisory as a 
way to expose customers (and ourselves) to new music. Participants will 
learn new ways to search (using iTunes, Pandora, etc.) for digital music 
online and develop Music Advisory services at their libraries.

*Cool Crime and Hot Romance Readers Advisory* presented by "Bloody" Mary 
Boone, PR Coordinator & Kristin "the Romance Specialist" Wetzel, 
Librarian's Assitant, Wood County District Public Library.

*Urban Fiction: Not Just for Urban Libraries* presented by Jessica 
Powell, Adult Services Librarian, Campbell County Public Library
What is Urban Fiction? Hip-Hop on the page? The Street Life in prose? 
This session will give an introduction to this burgeoning genre by 
discussing trends, hot authors, and possible controversy. Does your 
collection have a home for thee tales of the city?


      Meal
