Staunton Public Library discussion

Would anyone like to submit a book review for the Friends of the Library newsletter? This does not necessarily have to be a YA book, but the Friends want to make TAB more involved, and are even considering a teen Friends group of some sort. More on that to come later, but if you want to write a review of a recent book you've read, email it to me at paynekm@ci.staunton.va.us (or you can submit it here if you prefer).

Thanks!

I'll do one! Is there length requirements or a due date or anything I need to know before writing my review?

About 100 words or less, and if you could have it end by the end of this week (or by TAB on Monday) that would be great!

I'll bring it to Tab and send it to you in a email before then. If I bring it to tab you could use it to talk about whatever the friends of the library are trying to do.

I sent it to your email, and I'll bring a printed out version to TAB

Message from Shannon, who is getting the summer newsletter ready.

"We need four 200 to 250 word YA/Juv/NA/etc book reviews. You can send them to curtisse@ci.staunton.va.us. We need them by Wednesday the 3rd. "

Frances is writing one, so if three others want to write one, or if you want to submit two, email them to Shannon at the address above.

My summer school starts this Monday but I will see if I can write 3 reviews. Do they want one from YA, one from Juv etc?

I think it can be any sort of mix of genre. If you don't have time for three let me know, I may ask Shannon if it would be okay if I submitted one. Not sure if she wants TAB members only, or if mine could count since I'm the advisor. Thanks!

If you could do one and I'll do the other two, that would be great. I'll still do a third review just in case you can't, but I don't know the amount of schoolwork I'm going to have this coming week and I might not have time to finish the third. I'm deciding to do a review on Dreamfire(my ARC copy, YA), probably a Redwall book(I have a bunch of copies, Juv), and I haven't decided what to do for the third yet.

I sent in one review. Two to go...

I've got one started that's about 100 words so I'm going to finish and edit it. Then I'll send it in.

I've got the same, then there is one more review to write after that and I'm done.

Are we going to need more, and if so when is the deadline?
