Join Library Journal and School Library Journal for our third annual LibraryCon Live! We're excited to offer a day-long celebration of fandom-beloved stories and characters, featuring the creators behind mind-bending speculative fiction, innovative comics, and fan-favorite graphic novels. You'll also learn from librarians and industry insiders on how to plan and host your own Comic Con-style event.
YA novelist Leigh Bardugo’s first adult novel, novelist Tim O’Brien’s nonfiction lessons on fatherhood, adult fiction from the late comics genius Stan Lee, and Hilary Mantel’s wrap-up of her Man Booker–crowned Thomas Cromwell trilogy. Lori Rader-Day’s next thriller, André Aciman’s sequel to Call Me by Your Name, Kate Elizabeth Russell’s big #metoo fiction debut, and a collection (with some rediscovered pieces) by Zora Neale Hurston. Want to hear more? Our fall 2019/winter 2020 sleeper hits is full of surprises, so register now.
A mysterious body found on a remote beach; a tour de force about a woman’s journey in law enforcement; a brutally murdered prostitute; a chilling narrative on solving cold cases; a contemporary tale of treachery and deceit. Are you dying to learn more?
From gritty crime and murder stories to heart-warming tales of magic, fantasy and friendship, this season’s graphic novels releases will not disappoint! Join moderator Tammy Ivins along with a panel of insiders who will share new and upcoming titles - and some beloved series and sequels - to dazzle your shelves.
This full-day event provides expert panel discussions with librarians and architects, as well as hands-on architect-led breakout sessions dealing with real-life design challenges submitted in advance by you and your fellow attendees. There will also be 15-20 minute “speed-sessions” with individual architects and furniture and equipment vendors so you can address your own library-specific questions and concerns (be sure to bring photos, illustrations, floor plans, or plat maps--whatever you think will enhance the discussion). There will be plenty of facetime and networking opportunities throughout the day with colleagues, too.
