| With February 14th upon us, I wanted to take the time to reach out to the librarians spending time building special Valentine's Day collections in their libraries. Valentine's Day is celebrated by many countries around the world; but most popularly celebrated by couples as a day to be romantic and publicly display their affection… in front of the whole world, including single people. As I entered into my early twenties, it became more apparent each year that there is a large demographic of people who hate Valentine's Day, and would rather celebrate S.A.D. or Singles Awareness Day (which, incidentally, sounds a whole lot more FUN than SAD). So while you’re decorating your whole library with pink and red hearts, take a second to remember your single patrons by browsing a list of titles geared towards the single demographic. Whatever your February holiday of preference, have a happy one!
*Please note: geographic and other restrictions may apply to some titles.
