Monday (Absurdly) Fun Day! (7/16/2012 Edition)

Welcome to a new week, biblio-buddies!

We put up a number of important and delightful posts last week that we don't want you to miss including:

- An interview with debut novelist Lydia Netzer whose curious and compelling first novel, SHINE SHINE SHINE, comes out this week! 

- Sign up information for the Edelweiss Librarian Boot Camp which you should all add to your calendars.

- The list of forthcoming titles that Talia presented during the most recent Booklist webinar, Book Battle 2: this time it's personal!, and we included a link to her slides. 

GalleyCat has your cat video fix covered with The Most Popular Literary Cat Videos of All Time.

But most importantly: Sunday was Talia's birthday! I stayed behind on Friday with Peter and Emily from Academic Marketing and we did that thing that everyone hears about, but no one actually does: we blew up hundreds of balloons to leave in Talia's office...

Join Joe Foster of Edelweiss and Stephanie Wilkes of Ouachita Parish Public Library for a (sweat-free) Edelweiss Librarian Boot Camp. 

Learn the best ways to navigate Edelweiss and how to discover new upcoming titles, create lists and collections, request Digital Review Copies (e-galleys) and communicate with your staff and colleagues. 

For librarians only, registration for the Edelweiss Librarian Boot Camp will be capped at 250, so register soon!

Why Macmillan wants you to attend:

We host all of our digital catalogs with Edelweiss now (PROOF!) and we're slowly starting to host some e-galleys there, too, so we want you to get comfortable navigating the site.

Here's how to register: 

Simply email Joe Foster at joe-at-abovethetreeline.com with "Boot Camp Registration" in the subject line.
