Sustaining Our Creative Sides: Librarians Who Write

Friday, June 2, 2023
4:00 PM – 4:45 PM PT
Location: A3
From Marcel Proust to Audre Lorde and Beverly Cleary to Nancy Pearl, there is a storied tradition of authors holding day jobs in libraries. In our panel, four librarian-authors will discuss their most recent books, ranging from adult poetry to children’s picture books, while also engaging in a moderated Q&A about how library work influences their writing—and the art of juggling a writing life with a job in the library.
