Numerical evidence is everywhere and how best to handle and leverage it is a growing concern in the academic world in general and the academic library world in particular. Libraries are not only storehouses and key contacts for library patrons in accessing numbers, but are also collectors and users of their own data, which is integral to the functioning of the library itself. The essays in Library Data: Empowering Practice and Persuasion focus on interpreting and using library-generated and outside data in support of data-driven practice and data-strengthened persuasion. The collection includes such topics as how to make data presentations appealing and effective; applying capital-budgeting models to libraries; and using data for evaluation and improvement of collections and services. Articles also cover specialized scenarios, including reference, collection development, serial acquisitions, institutional repositories, web site design, interlibrary loan, and bibliographic instruction.

Dr. Bicksford is a well-known inventor whose current project deals with DNA manipulation in plants. He is reputed to be the wealthiest person in the world. And no one has ever seen him. So imagine their surprise when college students Rachel, Zachary, Chris, Liz, and Sam are hired to do top-secret research for the invisible man. The students are flown to his private estate and immediately given their assignments—Liz and Sam excavating an ancient Egyptian temple, Zachary cataloguing greenhouse contents, and Rachel and Chris analyzing the mysterious bloodweed plant. Upon the students' much-anticipated first meeting with Dr. Bicksford, Rachel is taken aback by his resemblance to the man she has been seeing in her dreams. But there's just one thing: the man in her dreams isn't a man at all, but an alien-like creature with paper-thin skin and razor-sharp fingernails. After several more dreams of and meetings with the mysterious man, Rachel comes to know, understand, and love the misunderstood creature that is Dr. Bicksford. Things quickly become even stranger when Zachary suddenly comes up missing, and it looks suspiciously as though he has purposely gone into hiding. Rachel is completely unprepared for the truth about Dr. Bicksford's past and the reason for her presence at his home, but in order to stay alive and remain with the one she loves, she must face the truth about her beloved Dr. Bicksford.

Winner of the Barbara DiBernard Prize in Fiction Amy Black, a queer single mother and an aspiring artist in love with calligraphy, dreams of a coveted artist’s residency at the world’s largest social media company, Q. One ink-black October night, when the power is out in the hills of Oakland, California, a stranger asks Amy to transcribe a love letter for him. When the stranger suddenly disappears, Amy’s search for the letter’s recipient leads her straight to Q and the most beautiful illuminated manuscript she has ever seen, the Codex Argentus, hidden away in Q’s Library of Books That Don’t Exist—and to a group of data privacy vigilantes who want her to burn Q to the ground. Amy’s curiosity becomes her salvation, as she’s drawn closer and closer to the secret societies and crackpot philosophers that haunt the city’s abandoned warehouses and defunct train depots. All of it leads to an opportunity of a lifetime: an artist’s residency deep in the holographic halls of Q headquarters. It’s a dream come true—so long as she follows Q’s rules.

Adela never imagined her life would end here: alone in a filthy spare room with a bucket for a toilet after days on days of torture. But she can wait a few days for her captors to tire of her—or she can save them the trouble. Not that they left anything for her to use for those purposes. Of course, a third alternative might exist. She knows the nephew of this house’s owner, after all… A dark, heart-twisting story that proves that even the darkest tales can have happy endings, for everyone who believes in hope—and unexpected allies.
