Note from Column Editor Barry Trott
The response to Tara Williamson’s column in vol. 50, no. 3 has been so strong that I would like to refer those interested in reading more to several additional resources: Joyce Saricks’ At Leisure column on Whole-Collection Readers’ Advisory (Booklist 3/1/2011 and 4/1/2011), Katie Stover’s “Reading with Your Ears: Readers’ Advisory and Audio Books,” (RuSQ vol. 42, no. 4), and Neal Wyatt’s work including the last chapter in The Readers’ Advisory Guide to Nonfiction, the Redefining RA series in Library Journal, and her monthly “RA Crossroads” whole collection RA column in Booksmack!
