Every quarter, Perspectives on Reading delivers tremendous stories from the reading community. The most recent edition explored how the kitchen’s being brought into the library courtesy of culinary programs and the data behind the continued popularity of celebrity book clubs. We interviewed comedian Adam Conover and former ALA president Sari Feldman, and learned how teens are turning to books to tackle tough topics.


Most Perspectives on Reading story ideas come from thought leaders like you, and as we start planning the next edition, we want to hear what you have to say! Have you had a really successful program at your library you want to share? Do you have a unique way of reaching reluctant K-12 readers? Are you working in a unique reading-related job you think people would find interesting? We want to hear about it!

We’ll be accepting story ideas over the next few weeks, so if there’s something you think the reading world needs to know about, please send us your story idea submission.
