I’d love to see (even help with?) some publicity to help get the word out about the PMBA reading list to library purchasing agents. I discussed it with my local library purchaser and she was blown away by how specific my recommendations/requests were.

She confirmed that with their limited budget and unfamiliarity with the subject matter, most book purchases are based solely on best sellers lists. Specific, coherent lists like this are fantastically helpful for them.

I prefer to own the books, but not everyone has the cash for that and sometimes I’m in too much of a hurry and the library is the fastest way to get a book.

I have some reading to do, lots of it. As if I don’t have enough reading to do. I mean, new reading is always welcome. These are all books I can find at the library.
