Calling all book group people! (and you know who you are) We know you like to talk about books, but we want you to talk to us
about your book group. Please help us get a picture of book groups across the country by participating in a short informal survey from the
RUSA CODES Readers’ Advisory Committee of the American Library Association. To visit the survey, go to our RA website nfollow the instructions below: Reading Group Survey
Click on the link on the left that says “Book Group Survey” Preliminary data will be presented at the ALA Annual Conference in Anaheim, CA at the program Reading Group Therapy: How to Repair, Revamp and Revitalize Your Book Group being held Sunday, June 29th, 2008, from 10:30 a.m.-12 p.m. Librarians who are also members of a book group, library sponsored or other (Neil? This is for you.
) should answer the questions as a group member, not a facilitator. So far results are interesting. Can’t share any findings yet, ’cause we haven’t sifted through all the data, but some of the reasons folks are giving for books they loved and loathed are great! Please share your opinions with us. What you say matters.
