KFOR Book Chats

Starting in April 2002, and continuing through November 2018, a panel of library staff members appeared somewhat regularly on Cathy Blythe’s Problems and Solutions (site https://www.problemsandsolutions.net no longer active) program on radio station KFOR 1240 AM & 103.3 FM in a segment called “Book Chat”, sharing information about books, literacy and library programs. Initially, the library staff who participated were all from either the Eiseley Branch or the Anderson and Bethany Branches, but eventually librarians from throughout the city’s library system took part, with ultimately over 25 different librarians providing book reviews/recommendations.

Beginning in 2018, as host Cathy Blythe took a partial retirement, the length of episodes was occasionally decreased from 1 hour to 30 minutes.

From the very beginning, we’ve kept an online archive of the books that were discussed in any episodes featuring library staff — you’ll find that archive here on the BookGuide pages.
