Spring/Summer 2017 Great Lakes Talking Books (GLTB) Reader Advisory and Outreach Center 1615 Presque Isle Ave
UPPER PENINSULA NEWSLETTER Spring/Summer 2017 Great Lakes Talking Books (GLTB) Reader Advisory and Outreach Center 1615 Presque Isle Ave. Marquette, MI 49855 Lynn Buckland-Brown, Reader Advisor My favorite weather is bird chirping weather” -Terri Gullemets Happy Spring! I’ve had many calls throughout the winter months from patrons requesting additional books. There’s nothing like a good book on a cold winter night! But now you may not have as much time to listen to or read books, once summer activities begin, so give me a call if you’d like me to adjust the number of books you’re receiving. Also, if you are not getting enough books or the wrong type, please call me. If I cannot answer, please leave your NAME and PHONE NUMBER and I will call you back- I promise! Nick and Pam C. are also available to answer questions, order books, and make changes in your records. 1-800-562-8984, EXTENSION “0” or 1-906-228-7697, EXTENSION “0” Mondays 11:30 am- 5:00 pm Tuesdays and Thursdays 9:00 am- 2:30 pm Boxes of Many Colors We know some of our patrons can’t see color, but those who can may be surprised by the range of colors arriving in the mail. When digital books were introduced they were sent out in blue boxes, to try to make it easier to tell the formats apart. In recent years, several additional colors have been added to the talking book palette and some of our patrons may be wondering why they received a grey or yellow box in the mail instead of the familiar blue or green. -
Grimdark Magazine Issue 27 PDF
1 Contents From the Editor Beth Tabler Outliers A.M. Shine Crossing the Monster Kaaron Warren Island of Sin Jack Murphy An Interview with Chuck Wendig Beth Tabler The Tesseract Evan Marcroft An Interview with Paul Tremblay Beth Tabler The Jewels of the Mermaids Marisca Pichette The Case for Conflict Sadie Hartmann Tubes Jeremy C. Shipp An Interview with Graham Masterton 2 Beth Tabler Gingerbread Lindsay King-Miller 3 From the Editor BETH TABLER Hey, there. My name is Beth Tabler, and I am guest editing the horror crossover issue of Grimdark Magazine. As a young connoisseur of all horror and science fiction movies inappropriate for my age, I remember seeing Poltergeist for the first time when I was seven years old. I had snuck down to the television while my folks were sleeping. I never quite got over demonic trees, clowns, and an old woman screaming, "Carol Anne." I remember reading my first Stephen King book, Salem's Lot, at 12. I knew at that moment that my reading life would never be the same. I remember the first grimdark book I read at 25; it was Mark Lawrence’s Prince of Thorns, by the way. I realized sometimes heroes aren't heroic, bad guys can be protagonists, and life is full of a lot more gray than I had thought. Horror and grimdark are a part of who I am and how I see the world. They are my jam. The themes of horror and grimdark have always gone hand in hand. But often, a thin gray line separates the two, a place where the story does not fall one way or another but sits on that terrifying spot between the two, where you can't quite tell what is what. -

The Horror Genre
Why do I like horror? Excellent question, although I’m not entirely sure how to respond to it. Your patrons might not, either. This question could apply to anyone in relation to any particular genre, actually. Most people, when asked why they like what they like, are at a loss for an explanation. In my case, I’ll just say odd wiring from birth. Which is not to say that horror fans in general are odd—they’re not. I’m just drawn to terrifying, horrible, awful, creepy, nasty things. As long as they’re in books or movies. In real life, not so much (although I do watch an awful lot of the ID channel, so there’s that. And I really like spiders. A lot. And rats. And bats. And the monster in my closet). Horror fans are used to being judged in a negative light. In fact, you may find your patron horror fan is a bit on the defensive when asking for a recommendation in the genre. Because: If you like horror, you must be a serial killer, right? (Nope, just a cereal killer) If you like horror, you must be weird. And you probably keep dead squirrels under your pillow (Nope) If you like horror, you probably dress like a vampire on your days off (Nope. Personally, I dress like the reclusive, introverted writer of horror that I am, i.e. jeans and T-shirt) I’m certainly not saying you judge anyone by his or her genre preferences, but I’ve encountered some of these things myself and just want to throw out there that your patrons who are horror fans may have some defense mechanisms up. -

Brittany Norwood. Haunted Collections: the Representation of Female Horror Authors in Public Library Collections
Brittany Norwood. Haunted Collections: The Representation of Female Horror Authors in Public Library Collections. A Master's paper for the M.S. in L.S. degree. April 2019. 84 pages. Advisor: Brian Sturm While several women are writing or have written in the horror genre, the stereotype that women do not write horror remains prevalent. This perception can lead to these female horror authors being overlooked in library collections. As underrepresenting female horror authors can negatively impact their addition to the horror canon as well as strengthen the stereotype that women do not write horror, it is important to examine library catalogs to see if they are representing female horror authors in their collections. This study performed a modified list-checking format of collection assessment to analyze the representation of female horror authors in the collections of five public libraries in North Carolina. Overall, female horror authors appeared to be more likely to be excluded from library collections than included, with levels of exclusion in library catalogs increasing for women of color who have written or are currently writing in the horror genre. Recommendations for how libraries can represent female authors in their collections are provided.
