Librarian Recommended!

Submitted by Simone on July 20, 2012 - 4:44pm

It's a pretty well-known fact that librarians* are big readers. Many DPL staffers have chosen this field because it lets us work with books, movies and music every day. In a way, we've devoted our lives to these things. So it makes sense that a book recommended by a library staff person is probably a pretty darn good book.

We now have this nifty new page on our website that lets you peruse staff reviews of our favorite library things. Whether you're looking for a light summer read, a tale of adventure or a new website to geek out on, look no further!
