This past Thursday and Friday, I was in San Antonio for TLA—the Texas Library Association’s annual conference. I brought my microphone. In this episode, we talk to librarian Curren McLane, a member of TLA’s planning committee, and to Venessa Carson, who is part of the School and Library Marketing team at Penguin Young Readers. We get an airport-hot-take from Marissa Grossman and Kate Meltzer, two Penguin editors who were also in attendance, and, in my downtime, I roam the main exhibition hall.
