If you're a regular reader of the Sunday edition of the Chicago Tribune, you've probably noticed that the "Books" section is no longer included! This caused me a small amount of panic until I realized that it hadn't been eliminated, simply moved to the Saturday edition of the paper. Of course, I'm disappointed since I only subscribe to the Sunday edition, but fortunately the Library has it. Even better, we're pulling the "Books" section and bringing it up to the Reader Services area so it's easy for everyone to find! Just look on the New Fiction shelves where we have various magazines and newspapers dedicated to book reviews (don't see it? Just ask at the Reader Services Desk!). If you can't wait to come into the Library, you can also see "Books" online.

While I'm sorry to lose "Books" from my personal collection, I must say that I'm enjoying the expanded coverage in the new Saturday edition. I also like the "Lit Life" column by Julia Keller in the Sunday "Arts & Entertainment" section. What do you think? Some people feel that moving "Books" to Saturday is an indication that the popularity of reading is waning and that one day it will not be published at all. As a reader who relies on reviews to help me find titles I might otherwise miss, I certainly hope this doesn't happen!
