The Bookshelf

I recently produced a screencast (a video of what is on a computer screen) about the back end of BookMatch.  I thought it would be fun to post it here so all of  you that have received a BookMatch could see how the magic happens.  And those of you that have not filled out a survey yet will learn how much effort we put in to finding you excellent books. Why not fill out a survey today?

What is BookMatch? It is a service we offer to Skokie card holders designed to help them discover new and exciting books.

We are now offering BookMatch, an exciting new service for avid readers of all stripes. BookMatch allows Skokie Library cardholders to receive a custom list of titles prepared by us.

To receive your BookMatch list, fill out our Reading Preferences Questionnaire as completely as possible. The survey usually takes 10 to 15 minutes to complete and will help us recommend the best books for you. What are your favorite types of books? Who are the authors you can’t stand? What book can you not live without? The more information you can give us, the more accurate your list will be.

After finishing the survey, expect to receive your custom BookMatch reading list within ten business days.

To get started, fill out your Reading Preferences Questionnaire.
