February is Black History Month, Women’s History Month, and of course, the month of valentines. We are debuting cryptic crosswords for all of you who love puzzles with our new column 793.73. This month, we are featuring eight clues that challenge readers to identify eight Black authors whose work is worth celebrating. And we are also featuring articles from women co-edit books, find more respectful ways to describe people and their work, want to live in good relationships on Turtle Island, and land the right job because they know how to make the most of the interview process.
What’s new in Open Shelf?: September 2019
In this month’s issue we have a list of reading suggestions in Library is… Murder!, and an update on the new rural libraries conference: Little Branches Rural Roots. Also, learn about:
