Need A Book Recommendation? Try Pinterest!
Posted on 25 August 2014.
Welcome to the 2014-2015 school year! We librarians have already begun working hard getting the library ready for you. We have piles of new books, many of which are already on display on racks and shelves around the library. Weâre excited to recommend some excellent reads for you.
Take a look to your right â see where it says âNew Books?â Thatâs the feed from the Casti Library Pinterest account, and it will always show you four book covers that weâve recently added to the library collection. Clicking on a book cover will lead you to the pin for that particular title. You can also look underneath the book covers and click on the little P. That will take you to our main page, where you can find boards dedicated to various genres and themes, like scary stories, books about to become movies or TV shows, mysteries, and more. All of the books on those pages are titles we have in our collection, so you can be sure to have access to them as soon as you see them and decide you want to read them.
What makes this even more fun is that once you are on one of our Pinterest boards, you can discover even more about books and the world of literature and publishing. Every book you click on will first pop up with an annotation to help you learn more about the book, including recommended grade levels. Then, once you click again, youâll be taken off-site to see a video book trailer, read an interview with the author, visit the authorâs website, or go somewhere else on the Internet that will allow you to get to know the book even better.
Pinterest is a great way to find out what books weâve recently gotten in. Our New Books board will feature some of the most exciting new volumes, and still more will be on physical display when you come inside. We canât add them to Pinterest fast enough!
Weâre excited to offer this service to you for when you are looking for a book recommendation. But we canât do it without you! Please come up and talk to any of your librarians about what you like about our Pinterest page and what you think is missing. Weâll always be adding new boards and new recommendations to existing ones, and weâd love to know what youâve been enjoying lately. And donât forget: we are always excited to talk with you in person and give you even more recommendations if youâre looking for something good.
