LibraryCall

ARRR!! Avast! Scurvy! … ummm, bilge?

Hello, and welcome to the second half of 2023! 

This month, to help you escape the August doldrums, we're bringing you a fun literary link roundup, as well as a bit of exciting news and some story ideas. Enjoy!

We are excited to announce that we have recently added a new Dari story collection to the Storytime Commons.

We currently have seven titles available, with more on the way!

Throughout February, we’ve highlighted recordings from the Storytime Commons that celebrate influential African Americans.

We have some exciting news to share from Anita Gail Jones, one of our wonderful story contributors!

Anita’s debut novel, The Peach Seed, has been acquired by Henry Holt & Company and will be published on August 1, 2023.

Happy February! It’s Black History Month, which gives us another good reason to highlight the recordings in the LibraryCall catalog that celebrate influential African Americans and their stories.

This week we’ll draw your attention to Bessie Stringfield: Motorcycle Queen! by Lauren Kratz Prushko.
