If you or anyone you know is an Eyre aficionado, you may be interested in this series I was made aware of whilst hobnobbing at RWA's Librarians' Day last week.
The Jane Eyre Chronicles by Joanna Campbell Slan
Death of a Schoolgirl (9780425247727) (This title is available in the PLJC system)
Death of a Dowager (9780425253519)
I spoke with the author at the event and she gave me a few postcards and pamphlets about the book (which I will make available at our next meeting) and told me about a FREE virtual author event coming up in October. The event, featuring Joanna Campbell Slan, will explore the history of Charlotte Bronte's classic and celebrate 166 years of Jane Eyre.
The event will be on October 16, 2013, from 3-5pm EST at http://shindig.com/event/jane-eyre
For more information, or book club questions, contact the author at joannaslan@aol.com and visit her website at www.joannaslan.com.

About the Roundtable

The Jefferson County Public Library Association (JCPLA) was founded in 1974 for the improvement of librarianship and for the advancement of public libraries in Jefferson County. The public libraries of Jefferson County form our cooperative system, the Jefferson County Library Cooperative (JCLC). Membership in JCPLA provides an organizational structure for staff training countywide.
The Reader's Advisory Roundtable is open to all library workers in the JCLC Community. If you love reader's advisory, need help honing your skills, or are looking for new tools/ideas, please consider joining us. JCPLA and the Roundtables are a great way to share resources, connect with other libraries in the county, network with your colleagues, or just take a break from the daily grind and get some fresh perspective!
