<\/p>\nHello Hub Readers, and Happy February!<\/p>\n
Last month, we asked about your reading goals and priorities\u00a0for 2017, and a whopping 43% of you responded that your priority this year is to read more content that diversifies your reading list by choosing titles by and\/or about people\u00a0who are different\u00a0from you in physical or experiential ways. Not far behind, with 38% of the responses, were readers committed to reading more<\/em> titles in 2017, amassing more options to your arsenal of completed texts. 10% are prioritizing the social connections reading can foster, 5% are focused on reading the most critically-celebrated books on offer, and 4% are focusing their reading efforts beyond the offerings of the Big 5 publishers to seek out indie gems. Just the idea of all these fired up readers applying energy and resolve to the act of absorbing narratives, with all the impacts that can have,\u00a0makes me more hopeful about the year ahead. If you’re looking to quantify some of these goals, we invite you\u00a0to join the\u00a02017 Hub Reading Challenge, which offers up titles to fit every one of these priorities!<\/p>\n This month, we’re returning to a favorite theme: page-to-screen adaptations, and their effect on circulation in your library (if your library is anything like mine, it’s considerable!). Have you seen\u00a0measurable changes in the demand for the book editions of these recent and soon-to-be-released screen adaptations?<\/p>\n [poll id=”226″]<\/p>\n As always, let us know in the comments if we’ve left off a title that’s flying off your library’s shelves!<\/p>\n \u2014 Carly Pansulla, currently reading The Reader<\/em>\u00a0by\u00a0Traci Chee<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hello Hub Readers, and Happy February!
