It took a little time (and a little complaining on our part…) but the feed for our new setup at Library Journal is now in working order!
So please add us to your feed reader from the LJ site, (http://www.libraryjournal.com/RSS, you’ll have to scroll to the bottom to find us) or, add the feed URL directly to your favorite reader (Karen’s partial to iGoogle, while Rebecca’s a Bloglines fan, but hey, we like ‘em all and think they are a brilliant invention.)

Dear Loyal Readers,
Well, it didn’t take long, we found ourselves a sugar daddy. So it’s time to move out of the Barbie Dream House… will you please come visit us at www.libraryjournal.com/shelfrenewal?
The look is a little less luxe, but we promise you all the same content you first fell in love with. (and, momma always said looks don’t matter, it’s what’s inside that counts.)
We’re not leaving you entirely, either…check back here at www.shelfrenewal.com for updates on what Karen and Rebecca are doing in libraryland. For example, we’d be thrilled if you invited us to come and play at your library for a training or a staff day. We can provide information as well as entertainment – see what ILA had to say about us!

So head on over to www.libraryjournal.com/shelfrenewal for our regularly scheduled blog postings. Don’t forget to update your feedreader as well if you’re a regular – and thanks!!
Karen and Rebecca

Pat Conroy and I have this in common, we were both surprised to learn that John Grisham’s new book was a collection of short stories. Here is where we differ. I have yet to write an Amazon.com “exclusive” that mentions John Grisham alongside writers John Irving, Richard Russo, Anne Rivers Siddons, Chekhov, de Maupassant, Flannery O’Connor, William Faulkner and Eudora Welty.
I’m not saying Grisham isn’t a good storyteller. I’m not saying that at his best he’s not a great storyteller. And I’m not saying that I got a free copy of Grisham’s book before it was available to the public as, apparently, Conroy routinely does. I’m just saying that once there was a little boy who said he kept seeing wolves, but there actually were no wolves, so everybody stopped believing him. And then, this one time, there was a wolf. That’s all.
