Register here

(This webinar and recording is only available to library staff in California. The recording will be available under the CALL Academy People Connect Institute category one week after delivery.)

Readers love Romance, but with all the different sub-genres and tropes, it can be hard to keep up! Join us for a one-hour webinar to get the skinny on all things Romance RA. We’ll talk about how to talk about Romance from across the desk (door closed, open or cracked?) and how to craft the most effective search to find your patrons the book of their dreams!

We’ll also discuss the language we use surrounding the content of romance novels (including spice levels), read-a-likes for popular authors, and if you can really judge a romance novel by its cover!
