Contact authors through our online book clubs with Author Buzz

Many of our readers have said that they would often like to learn more about, or even contact an author, particularly if he or she is the author of a book club book they are reading. As you know, at Harford County Public Library's Readers Place you can find all sorts of online book clubs to sign up for and get a chapter a day delivered to you by e-mail, together with all sorts of extra features. One of those extras is Author Buzz.

Author Buzz is a great way for readers to talk with authors, discover new authors, and find new titles. Readers can click on the link included in their Online Book Club emails and it brings them to Author Buzz. Once at Author Buzz, they will see the featured author for that week. As well as providing information about the author, each feature provides a way for patrons to communicate with him or her if they would like to learn more. It's really fun, because it is rare for readers to have direct access to authors, and the authors also offer prizes that can be won each week!
