New E-mail Service Delivers Reading Suggestions to Library Patrons

Library website visitors and patrons are now able to subscribe to any of 22 different newsletters, all of which provide helpful reading suggestions, to be delivered to their e-mail address.

The newsletters cover a variety of topics and include new releases and older titles that are linked to library’s online catalog, making it simple for patrons to place a hold or request a title immediately. 19 of the newsletters are geared toward adults, but there are two for children and one for young adults.

If you don't have an e-mail address webpages of the newsletters are available.

Reading, Viewing, Listening

If there's one thing the staff at the Kanawha County Public Library loves, it's READING! Many of us are sharing our favorite reads on the READ posters you see at your library. Want to find out what the we are reading? Just ask! Or, see the Reading, Viewing, Listening pages for more staff suggestions.

Our Reading, Viewing, Listening pages serve as a jumping off point for the sometimes overwhelming sea of media.
