A Library Pearl

Does anybody recognize this lovely lady on the left?

How about now?
Yesterday I got to attend a staff workshop with Nancy Pearl - the only librarian I know of who has an action figured fashioned after her. Perhaps you've heard her on NPR. Or perhaps you've perused one of her books looking for a good beach read. But have you hugged this woman? Yep, this is workshopping at its finest. Oh, and we also learned about reader's advisory.

Hi Jessica. Nancy Pearl really is a gem, isn't she? I met her I think at ALA and she is as sweet as she can be. I practically begged to get Pearl's Picks added to the PPLD web site. What a cute photo of you with her.

Great idea about adding her Picks! She's the recommendation master.
