At the 2015 NINC conference, librarian Alene Moroni and her partner in library badassery Brenna Shanks presented a workshop about libraries. I heard from some of the people who attended that it was terrific, so I asked Alene if she’d be willing to talk about it on the podcast. We discuss library market share, some of the misconceptions about libraries, library protection of user privacy, and how readers and authors can help their local library be the best version of itself. Special thanks to Mel Jolly for connecting me with Alene!
