Book recommendations by expert staff at The New York Public Library are now available on the book discovery site The Reading Room. A new partnership between the two organizations will help readers find new titles by offering regular curated lists of recommended books (and more) from the Library.
New York, New York (PRWEB) February 16, 2016
Understanding that the public has long relied on librarians as trusted experts in recommending books, The Reading Room is proud to partner with The New York Public Library to share the institution’s expert staff picks with its members. Readers can now access carefully selected titles from the Library’s experts, alongside recommendations from their friends and the community. The New York Public Library recommendations come with commentary and span all reading interests, including children’s, and can be found on the individual book pages and a dedicated recommendations page on the site.
“Librarians have enormous expertise when it comes to finding your next great read,” said Kim Anderson, CEO of The Reading Room. “We are delighted to be able to host the NYPL’s recommendations and to share with our audience some of the great services that the NYPL provides. It’s a wonderful way for people all over the world to experience this great institution and its resources, most importantly that these recommendations come from its librarians.”
“We are thrilled to be working with The Reading Room. We want to reach readers beyond our walls and share our love of books,” said Lynn Lobash, Manager of Reader Services at The New York Public Library. Lobash and the NYPL’s Reader Services department are now offering podcasts, lists, and more.
The Reading Room members can look forward to more great features from The New York Public Library partnership, including podcasts about reading.
