Readers' Advisory at GPL
Readers' advisory is often defined as the art of matching readers with books of interest. Branch Out is a service to help you in your quest. Have you already read all the books by your favorite author? Now you can find other authors with a similar theme, mood or feel. Or branch out even further and explore new books in a different direction from what you usually read. Click below for suggestions to help you find your best next read.
- The GPL has created its own lists with Author Read-Alikes. Click on a list, select an author. Then click on the read-alike author's name to go directly to the GPL catalog – you can see if it's available or place a hold on it!
