Marketing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our \u00a0book display set up for\u00a0Banned Books Week: Celebrating the Freedom to Read (September 21-27)\u00a0turned out to draw the most comments and interest of any of the adult book displays we have done so far. \u00a0<\/span>Some comments\u00a0overheard:<\/p>\n

Setting up the display a man asked me what I was doing.\u00a0 When I told him, he said, “What is this… Russia!?” Then he laughed.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Two women were looking at the display.\u00a0 Lady 1: “I don’t think I’ve read any of these.”\u00a0 Lady 2: “I think I’ve read almost all of them.”<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
“Thought provoking.”<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
