NON-FICTION PLEASURE READERS: The Un-Discovered User

Libraries across the country are finding that the use of their nonfiction collections is increasing and the reason for this increase is NOT school assignments. While adults who read nonfiction for fun have always been loyal library users—their numbers are increasing as is their demand for help in finding their next biography, true crime or current events title.

NoveList Plus is designed especially to help you respond to the needs of these readers. Duncan Smith, NoveList creator and product manager provides a guided tour of this new database of over 70,000 popular nonfiction titles.
