http://rplra.blogspot.com/2007/03/and-answer-is.html
New books, musings about fiction, and cooperative book discussions by the Rogers Public Library community. Saturday, March 3, 2007. And the answer is. It has been over two weeks, and I haven't had the opportunity yet to reveal publicly The Book That Changed My Life. And I still am not - or at least, not right away. After all, it's more fun to talk about the books that I should. Be citing, but won't: the first book. That I fell in love with; the book that ultimately inspired. You can certainly read the sa...

Rogers Book Talk: Mad About March
http://rplra.blogspot.com/2007/03/mad-about-march.html
New books, musings about fiction, and cooperative book discussions by the Rogers Public Library community. Wednesday, March 14, 2007. The above title is simply because it is written into every blogging contract that. At least one (1). Post must make a pun about the NCAA Basketball Tournament. Both during the month of March. As for book displays, the same legal obligation holds, of course. I've done books about Ireland. And the Irish for three years in a row; it's time for roundball to get its due. And on...

Rogers Book Talk: January 2007
http://rplra.blogspot.com/2007_01_01_archive.html
New books, musings about fiction, and cooperative book discussions by the Rogers Public Library community. Friday, January 26, 2007. Sonnets and Science Fiction. Or, Genre Part II. So, why do I love genre fiction so much? Well, mostly for the same reasons that so many other readers do (genre fiction consistently dominates the NYT bestseller lists. For example). I. Having my expectations met. I. Picking up a romance and getting to the Happily Ever After. I. Story, can hew to the conventions and meet my ex...

Rogers Book Talk: 8 Million Stories...
http://rplra.blogspot.com/2007/06/8-million-stories.html
New books, musings about fiction, and cooperative book discussions by the Rogers Public Library community. Monday, June 4, 2007. The title of this post is, of course, a tip of the hat to one of the greatest television series ever broadcast. I've been a long time a-postin', for a number of boring reasons, but I'll try to do better in the future. One of the reasons I'm back is that I simply could not resist expressing my deep and public gratitude to the Friends Group of the Rogers Public Library. An orange...

Rogers Book Talk: August 2007
http://rplra.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
New books, musings about fiction, and cooperative book discussions by the Rogers Public Library community. Tuesday, August 28, 2007. What I Did Over My Summer Vacation. Well, after all my determined musings about "Just Write It! And with summer, came Summer Reading; both the programming (huge shout-out to Radine Trees Nehring. Was the centerpiece of our adult programming) and the books. Ah, the books of summer. There was the Big One. And of course, my gig reviewing for Kirkus. Now what do I have to look.

Rogers Music & Film: December 2006
http://rplav.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Rogers Music and Film. These are the goals, objectives, news, and musings of the Audio Visual Librarian at the Rogers Public Library. Thursday, December 28, 2006. For the Zillionth Time. Here we go again, ad nauseam. My collection development policy for DVD's. The Library cannot spend its energy and its resources by concentrating on collecting current release movies. IT IS A BAD USE OF TAXPAYER MONEY! I hate to shout but let me repeat. I cannot use taxpayer money to compete with local business. The DVD/V...

Rogers Music & Film: May 2006

Rogers Music and Film. These are the goals, objectives, news, and musings of the Audio Visual Librarian at the Rogers Public Library. Monday, May 22, 2006. The Horror is here! The Body Snatcher with Boris Karloff was especially creepy. Don't watch these if you are expecting camp. You won't find screaming damsels falling down to let the ghoul catch them. These are well crafted and suspenseful. Posted by Rob Finch at 12:54 PM. Saturday, May 13, 2006. Mongo Santamaria Orchestra: Mongo introduces La Lupe.

Rogers Music and Film. These are the goals, objectives, news, and musings of the Audio Visual Librarian at the Rogers Public Library. Tuesday, October 31, 2006. Treasure of Sierra Madre. These are three classics that for various reasons have been cancelled or were out of print. I found them and ordered them and hopefully they will actually get here. Marx Brothers Silver Screen Collection. I'm trying this one again. This set includes. I've tried to get this one before and it was cancelled. What can I say?
