I stumbled upon this somehow. I don’t really know who is behind it. If you click on the “Contact Us” link you’re taken to “Turn Here”, which looks like just a production company, but I could be wrong. I’m interested to see what shows up on this site.
Welcome to the ranks
I was updating the Birmingham Book Events Calendar over in the sidebar when I ran across the Emmet O’Neal Library’s blog. Now everyone can get the scoop on events and books right from the source. They also seem to have blogs set up for different departments within the library! Pretty cool.
And I wish all the librarys did this… give you place to sign up for monthly notification of new acquisitions. How cool is that? Just click on the genres you’re interested in and they’ll update you once a month. Or sign up for the newsletter and get everything at once.

It’s being promoted as a “Beach Book Blowout”. So if you’re looking for a paperback to take to the beach, head to the the Emmet O’Neal Library today (Tuesday). I hear they have tons of books.

I saw on Salon.com that David Silverman’s book Typo is coming out soon… Amazon says May 21st.
The story traces Silverman’s business venture with setting up, running and loosing a successful typesetting/design/publishing business. Silverman seems like someone who loves the publishing business too and jumped in with both feet.
I’m anxious to get this one in the tbr pile.
