The Week Ahead.

Today I spent most of the day trying to get a jump on this weeks assignments. I finished my Hot Topic Post on a theme of ALA & YALSA. I visit the YALSA website at least twice a week. I am constantly looking at the updates for the "Best Books for Young Adults" and "Quick Picks". Part of my job involves the purchasing of teen books for not only my library, but also seven other libraries. Looking at current lists of what librarians think are the HOT books of the moment is extremely helpful. And listening to the chatter about books on the listserv is very helpful also.

But I digress here. I have three busy days at work and then late Thursday I leave for Book Expo. I am very excited because for the first time I am attending Friday and Saturday. Saturday is "librarian's day" so I can check out all the workshops and hopefully learn a thing or two. :) Plus, all the free ARC's aren't bad either!
