Congratulations to Steven Galloway who picked up the 2009 Evergreen Award at last week's Ontario Library Association Conference for his novel Cellist of Sarajevo.
And thanks to all the many librarians who stopped by our booths to chat about books and blogging or just life in general. We have such an interesting, vibrant community; a show like OLA always reminds me how lucky I am to be a part of it.
