Emily the Strange joins the ALA

Emily_1 ALA Graphics just released a new READ poster and bookmark featuring Emily Strange (a character near and dear to LiB's heart). 

If you've ever seen LiB, you know she wears quite a bit of Emily clothing and accessories.  The Emily character is a perfect extension for a little goth girl librarian who loves cats. 

If you haven't heard of Emily, check out her website.  She's very popular with teens and twenty-somethings.  She has a couple of books and a comic book too--you should consider them for your library's collection.   Our copies circulate pretty darn well.

I understand. This is the first time I've attended an ALA conference since 1997.

I just ordered mine. Wish I could be at midwinter, but without full library support, the LiB can only go to so many conferences...

I'm at Midwinter. I got a couple of Emily posters and a couple of Emily bookmarks at the Dark Horse booth this morning. They look very cool. They're rolled up in a UPS container.
