We had a wonderful time at our Snippets & Sneak Peeks: Winter Edition event on Tuesday, January 12th. Attendees braved the sub-zero windchill to listen to the staff from Barnes & Noble in St. Cloud share their favorite children’s and young adult books. Three authors also shared about their books: Ryan Jacobson, Aimee Bissonette, and Kristin D. Van Risseghem. Librarians and media center staff heard snippets from 57 books – some of which were just officially published that day!  We had tasty treats, coffee, and warm conversation to make this a fantastic event for all who attended. Thank you to ITEM for partnering with us on this and also to the Barnes & Noble staff: Jennie, Andy, Katie, and Amy for all the work you did.
