About In the Stacks
In the Stacks is the first video book review program hosted by a librarian. Conceived by librarian Michelle Zaffino in 2008 and registered at that time, In the Stacks features 60-second episodes of Michelle’s and other guest librarians’ take on new books currently out there in the stacks. All genres are covered, from adult to teen fiction, non-fiction, fantasy and mystery. In the Stacks is the seed for a larger digital library initiative.
