Hello Librarians Hope you are all enjoying the beginning of this festive season. I know all our libraries are busy providing joyful celebrations through seasonal programs, special services, and holiday collection updates. What better time than now to take a quiet break and enjoy something for yourself that also provides information to your fellow librarians across Tennessee. And what better way to do that than with a good book. We currently have one book available on our book reviews list for the Tennessee Journal, the online publication of the Tennessee Library Association. Poor Atlanta: Poverty, race, and the limits of Sunbelt Development by LeeAnn Lands explores the poor people's campaigns in Atlanta in the 60's and 70's in relation to Sunbelt city-building efforts. A full synopsis can be found here, https://ugapress.org/book/9780820363288/poor-atlanta/. We'd love to get this book into your hands if you'd like to review for the Journal. Please email me off list and we'll chat! Happy Holidays!
