Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about the Program
What is Blind Date with a Book ?
It’s like a regular blind date where you don’t know what you’re getting, but with books! Think of it as a literary episode of Love Is Blind.
Why should I check out a Blind Date book?
ADVENTURE! THRILLS! FUN! Also, it’s a great way to discover new authors or books that you might have missed. Let’s face it: most people judge a book by its cover - which may lead us to miss some pretty great reads.
Where are the Blind Date books located?
Directly across from the Reference Desk above the video games.
How do I check out one of these books?
Grab one off of the display and bring it to the front desk for check out!
How do you choose which books are Blind Dates?
Chaos magic. Oh, and I guess we also try to choose books from a variety of genres, with a variety of reviews, for a variety of readers. That’s a lot of variety!
