Hi everyone!
You may have noticed that we�ve slowed down a bit on posting, approving comments, and, well, pretty much our whole end of the deal. We�d like to say we�re just too busy and important, but�we�re not.
Behind the scenes, we�ve been actively downsizing and �sunsetting� this little dog and pony show we call Awful Library Books. We started this blog in 2009, and after 14 years we�ve realized that we did it! We�ve saved all the library collections and our work is done.
Ok, that�s a stretch. But seriously � the joke has been made and our point about ongoing and continuous collection management, including regular weeding, has been delivered. We�re stepping away and letting ALB stand as an archive of our best posts. We may add content occasionally (very occasionally, real talk), but we�re not going to be adding regular content. We�re spending this weekend making some final theme updates and downsizing our hosting service and whatnot, but the good stuff will still be available.
We�ve so appreciated your submissions and your comments over the years! You all made ALB what it is today. We�ll be around, so it�s not goodbye, it�s see ya later.
