Favorite Books for 2012 – Library Inspired Selections
On November 15, 2012 David Faulkner david.faulkner@austintexas.gov via listserv.oclc.org announced on Publib :
What is the best book you read this year? The book could have been published any year as what matters is that you read it in 2012.
Let me know either through Publib or via my email david.faulkner@austintexas.gov and I’ll compile the results and make them available early in the new year – you are free to nominate as many books as you want..
All genres and forms of books are open so nominate your favorite:
- graphic novel
- children’s book
- romance novel
- audiobook, etc.
This will be the 10th year I’ve compiled this list so if you’d like to see previous lists you can find them all on Best of Publib ~
