Talking about Books: Creating Literate Communities | Kathy Gnagey Short, Kathryn Mitchell Pierce

And here's the second-half of the Books About Books List! I should mention, the three asterisks signify that the title is the first one in a bookish series--and some of those series are wonderfully long, lol. There's fiction, non-fiction, memoir, ones that focus on poetry, even graphic novels are in here. Tried to provide a bit of everything. #BooksAboutBooks #LitsyLovesLibraries

Pruzy Are you gonna link to the list on a blog post or a google doc?? 7y

MrBook @Pruzy Great question! We were just discussing that before leaving for the day, lol. There's a few things we might do. I'm already printing copies for the displays I set up and the presentations I give. Now we're going to digitize them. My goal right now is to compile ~100 lists. I'm up to 24 currently. I'll be sitting down with the Director and be getting some admin access to the library's site, social media, etc. I love doing this ☺️! (edited) 7y

Pruzy @MrBook Awesome! Hope you can set up a sweet list of list website for your library (edited) 7y

GatheringBooks looks really good - we just had a meta-reading theme a few months back - this would have proven super useful as i was hunting down books 7y

Crystallinegirl Ach! You have missed Reading Women, one of my favorites for an introduction to feminist lit. 7y

MrBook @GatheringBooks Doh 🙈! Next time! @Crystallinegirl I have room for only one more title, and this one is now added! 😎🙌🏻 7y

Crystallinegirl Yay! It's an easy read, mostly about a woman reminiscing about her Women's Studies classes (or maybe currently taking them, I don't remember exactly) and talking a little bit about each book she read and how it affected her. I loved it (still own a copy) and bought several of the books she mentions. 7y

MrBook @Crystallinegirl 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻!!! I love suggestions/recommendations. (edited) 7y

New kind of library list begun 😁👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻! So I have an Author List file at work, and now I'll have a Book List file. Books about books. The list is nowhere near comprehensive, it's meant to be introductory with the most common titles. This is page 1 of 2. #BooksAboutBooks #LitsyLovesLibraries

SpeculativeFemale Oooo, I see a favorite on there!

If On A Winter's Night A Traveller

Bourriquet76 This is my favorite list so far! 7y
