CHICAGO — Drawn from the insights of RA experts Neal Wyatt and Joyce G. Saricks, ALA Editions’ new Resources for Readers pamphlets will help library users find their next favorite book. Sold in packs of 100 for $14.99/pack, they cover the following popular genres:

  • Adrenaline
  • Literary Fiction
  • Mystery
  • Psychological Suspense
  • Relationship Fiction
  • Romance

Beginning with a quick overview of the genre, each pamphlet offers a list of key authors, both past and current, with recommended titles for getting started. It concludes with a list of suggested titles in other genres that will encourage readers to expand their horizons. Designed to fit in commonly sized literature racks, they're also useful tools for RA interviews and creating book displays.
