And hurray, no spoilers! We’ll be keeping episodes short, a maximum of 30 minutes. The new Book Chatter will feature mostly newer titles but also some hidden gems, oldies but goodies, and a bit of the unexpected thrown into the mix. We’ll be discussing what’s happening at the library: upcoming programs, new materials, services and resources. And we’ll be inviting staff from all departments to join us, talk a bit about what they do at the library, and what they’re reading/watching now. Finally, we’re hoping to tap into what you, our listeners, are reading and recommending to friends— stay tuned for details on how to participate in future Book Chatter episodes. The views and opinions expressed in this episode are those of the podcast hosts and do not reflect or represent the views or opinions of the Longmont Public Library, The City of Longmont or the Friends of the Longmont Library.
