Other Good Stuff

This year's call for Cybils Awards judges is up!  I'm no longer the category chair for elementary/middle grade speculative fiction, but I am sure A Library Mama will do an excellent job!  Instead, I'm chairing High School non-fiction for a total change of pace. Reading for the Cybils is both worthwhile and fun, so do consider applying!
