Anoka, Minnesota
December 13th, 2006A while back I wrote a post about how my book landed on a shelf in the library in Desert Hot Springs, California. Then this morning in a comment I discovered that my book is being donated to the library in Anoka, Minnesota! I’m beginning to feel like I have my own library project.
Randy Richardson, a fellow Chicago Writers Association member, writes about his campaign to get his book into area libraries as part of his marketing strategy. He even includes an update on his success. At the end of the post he says, “So I can take my son to any of the neighborhood libraries and point out to him my book. How cool is that?”
Granted, that’s cool. But how cool is having your book in the library at Desert Hot Springs, California or in Anoka, Minnesota, when you live in Des Plaines, Illinois?

Hey Cheryl,
Any time that you can get your book in a library, no matter how small the library is or how far away it is, it’s reason to be happy. It’s an opportunity for your book to get in the hands of readers. Who knows, maybe you’ll find a fan in Desert Hot Springs, California or in Anoka, Minnesota.
Congratulations on your library successes!
Randy
