Task # 6 : Helping Patrons

1. Completed quiz

2. I have used each of these different databases and resources to help patrons, so it was a good refresher.

3. Multiple choice question:

An exasperated patron tells you she has read all of the series her favorite author has written except for one, but she can’t remember what it is.  To add insult to injury, she is forlorn, because once she finishes the last series, she will have read everything ever printed by that author but still wants more of the same kind of stories.

a) Commiserate with her, and tell her that’s the saddest thing you’ve ever heard.
b) Explain how she can use, What’s Next™: Books in Series Database courtesy of Kent District Library.
c) Walk her through NoveList Plus so she can find an Author Read-Alike.

d)  Show her how to use, What’s Next™: Books in Series Database, as well as NoveList Plus to find an Author Read-Alike.
