Books and Movies

With a movie coming out based on the book Coraline by Neil Gaiman, HarperCollins provided the content of the book online to read before the movie release complete with a widget to add to your website.

Kudos to them for their smart marketing move, both in promoting the movie as well as selling more books. Those of us who are voracious readers and love literature will buy a copy of the book if we don't have it already. I'm going to head on over to Amazon to order my copy right now.

Pam has The Book of Answers!

NCLC's administrative assistant, Pam, checks out The Book of Answers by Carol Bolt, borrowed from Jennifer, to find the answer to any question.

The idea was such fun that I thought I'd blog about it and in the process found the Original Book of Answers website where you can find out the answers to your burning questions too.

The book or any of its successors would make a fun gift for any hard to buy for person or any librarian you know. (We all know librarians know where to find all the answers.)
