Historical Fiction Readers' Advisory

LibraryLinkNJ is proud to offer the next webinar in our series on genre reader's advisory, following successful programs on horror, romance, and fantasy readers' advisory. By request, we are now highlighting historical fiction, a genre with long-lasting appeal. With several subgenres, from historical romance to historical mystery to historical fantasy, it can be difficult to know how to get started promoting this diverse genre to your community. Come learn why readers love historical fiction and how you can promote it all year long.

About the Presenter:

Alex Brower is Information Services Director at the Mississippi Library Commission (MLC). She has extensive experience in collection development and readers' advisory, having previously presented on the importance of historical fiction. She earned her MLIS from the University of Southern Mississippi, where she received Kathanne W. Greene Award and the Peggy May and H.W. Wilson scholarships.
