Friday Photo: library literature in Tina’s hands

ALA Publishing Marketing Coordinator Tina Coleman takes to heart Ranganathan’s first law of library science, “Books are for use.” I caught her in the hall on her way to show Jenni the purse that she made from cover overruns of Serving Teens through Readers’ Advisory. Tina is an ALA Editions author. Along with her crafter mom, she is writing a book on library craft programs for teens. Author Heather Booth is reviewing draft manuscript to assure that Tina’s projects will fly in the library. Tina graciously made this purse, which she packed away in a trunk headed for ALA Annual Conference, where she will present it to Heather. Tina works in the ALA Store at annual conference. If you have the chance to meet her, be sure to ask how you can jazz up your conference T-shirt.
