Just requested a new book from my local public #library that my academic library doesn't yet have in the catalog.
I wonder if there is any #collectionDevelopment literature that explores not just *what* libraries buy/license but also *how quickly* libraries make it available?

My latest @ala-booklist.bsky.social STARRED review for INFECTED FOR SCIENCE by Sydney Halpern and Trygve Faste is now available

This is the last BOOKLIST review I missed posting while moving, so I’m caught up now!

If you’re looking for an excellent, standalone, scifi read, @jaredthrone.bsky.social has you covered.

I can’t remember if I posted my @ala-booklist.bsky.social review of this #graphicnovel from @cullenbunn.bsky.social and @christophermitten.bsky.social during my big move, so here it is.

The move really threw me for a loop, and I’ve forgotten to post a lot of my Booklist reviews, so let’s catch up over the next few days! I really enjoyed this one

Does anyone else feel like Little Free Libraries were put on this earth to teach us the importance of weeding and collection development?
