Read Roger: Take it from the old stage manager
http://readroger.hbook.com/2011/01/take-it-from-old-stage-manager.html
Thursday, January 06, 2011. Take it from the old stage manager. Who's seen 'em come and go . . . . When I heard about the new edition of Huck Finn. That cleans up Mark Twain's pesky use of the word nigger. Deja vu of a very real sort came over me. A similar bowdlerization happened at least once before, more than 25 years ago, and I reported on it in my guise as YA columnist for School Library Journal. In the YA Corner. The Chicago Public Library. Moral in this narrative will be banished,. April II, 1982).

Books - Wendy B. 14 February 2009 @ 12:22 pm. I don't really want to post about job-search stuff, but I'm back from Portland. I have a new post at http:/ sixboxesofbooks.blogspot.com. That might interest many of you, especially because it is a poll-type post, and I always get lots of responses to those here, no matter what the subject. The question is about whether you read any books when you were kids that warped you for life. So please, click over and answer! 2 comments Leave a comment.

Nonfiction Matters | The Sagittarian Librarian
https://sagittarianlibrarian.wordpress.com/2010/01/21/nonfiction-matters
About the Sagittarian Librarian. January 21, 2010 at 12:54 pm. I’m such a geek when it comes to words with multiple meanings.]. After paying probably way too much attention to the changes to some of YALSA’s book lists. I’ve been thinking a lot about fiction and nonfiction. Am I marginalizing nonfiction in my library? The evidence on both sides:. One of nonfiction. Even the covers I choose for my “Hey, we have new books! 8221; posts on the library blogs are overwhelmingly from fiction titles. Will like it...

The Shelf Life: February 2013
http://universitybookstore.blogspot.com/2013_02_01_archive.html
Thursday, February 28, 2013. On Books and other Stuff. I moved this week. According to Google Maps, I moved a total of 1.5 miles from my old apartment to my new one. I found that it's not merely the displacement that makes a move overwhelming, it's also the energy that goes into cataloging our various stuff. And then attributing value to them.

http://universitybookstore.blogspot.com/2013/04/book-shelf-mix-tape.html
Thursday, April 04, 2013. Book Shelf Mix Tape. When I visit a book store for the first time and try gauge its potential, there are three sections I check right away: Science Fiction, Comparative Religion, and - most importantly - Used Book New Arrivals. The Used Book New Arrivals speak not only to the character of the store itself, but also the customers who frequent it. The New Arrivals shelf becomes something of a mix tape, curated (subconsciously! And at what a price! Lovely. Thank you. The New York T...
