We receive a lot of questions about what counts and what doesn't for certain categories. These come in the form of emails while others come from the Facebook group. Extreme Readers also share some really fun memes. We want everyone to be on the same page so here are some of our most asked questions, and some fun pictures.
Does time travel count for multiple time periods? What is a LibraryReads List? - This question refers to category #5, a book from a LibraryReads list.
- LibraryReads is a monthly nationwide library staff picks list for adult fiction and non-fiction. LibraryReads is designed to be inclusive and diverse, representing a broad range of reading tastes and showcasing a variety of new titles, including buzzed-about debuts, genre favorites, bestselling authors, and lesser-known midlist titles that public library staff can’t stop raving about.
