Week 6: Assignment #1

I wrote about Stop You're Killing me in my previous post but I will add that I enjoyed learning the various awards that are handed out for mystery writers.  I feel if I'm not exactly certain of a subgenre of mystery writing, I can at least use the indexes on the left column of the site to help me out.  There are location, job, historical, diversity and genre indexes listed and by choosing one of these, I can narrow the focus for my customer.  This goes back to the educational piece on how readers will enter the "gateway".  These tools are very effective in helping the librarian to find a book that meets the needs of our mystery readers.
