Unfortunately, I clicked the record button a few minutes late. What you missed: Bradley introducing Sarah and Sarah explaining how she became interested in nonfiction. See Sarah's bio on the Details tab above. You can follow along with Sarah's presentation here: http://www.citizenreader.com/citizen/waupaca-webinar.html

Title: Nonfiction - The Second Stacks
Description: Are you ready to answer any patrons' book and reading questions -- but only if they ask about fiction? This introductory webinar on the basic types and genres of nonfiction, combined with practical techniques and tips for developing nonfiction title awareness and nonfiction readers' advisory skills, is designed to help you view nonfiction as an exciting new avenue for reader services, rather than as the intimidating "second stacks." Sarah Statz Cords has worked as a librarian at Madison Public Library and UW-Madison, and has taught a course on the Reading Interests of Adults at the UW-Madison School of Information Studies. She is the author of the readers' guides The Real Story: A Guide to Nonfiction Reading Interests, The Inside Scoop: A Guide to Investigative Nonfiction Writing and Exposés, and Now Read This III, about mainstream and literary fiction, with Nancy Pearl. She is an editor with the Reader's Advisor Online database and blog and writes the nonfiction literary blog Citizen Reader.
