Great Reviews

I've really enjoyed reading everyone's reviews this week. I'm going to try to check out the Blue Blood books sometime (I have a weakness for vampire novels).

We're currently working on developing a Teen webpage for our MPL site - it's been in the works for some time and it looks like it will finally go live this autumn. One of the features we'd like to include on the webpage is book reviews, and I'm planning to ask the members of the Angus Glen Teen Advisory Group to be the official reviewers. For those of you who don't know, we have two TAGs - AG and Milliken Mills both have groups. The TAG members meet with librarians to discuss how to improve the library for teens, develop programme ideas, work on projects and help out with special events. If anyone is interested, we're going to be recruiting for autumn starting mid-August (you can email teens@markham.library.on.ca for more info on the TAG). It would be a great way to meet new people, help out at the library, earn volunteer hours AND keep sharing your excellent reviews with people.

In the meantime, keep posting those reviews! Week four is almost finished, which marks the half-way point for the summer reading programme. There are still more prizes to come!
