How much of the library collection is nonfiction? How well does it circulate? How do we let our patrons know our nonfiction collection is broad, engaging, and worth their time to explore? By utilizing readers’ advisory. This webinar is perfect for library workers who deliver reading suggestions to patrons in the public, academic, or school setting. Whether you’re brand new to readers’ advisory or a long-time practitioner, please join this discussion.
During this webinar, you’ll learn how to think about the vast category of nonfiction in four manageable parts, explore different conversation starters that lead to nonfiction suggestions, and discover some nonfiction titles to read next.
