#fridayreads: Jane Austen and Emma

Jane Austen's character Emma Woodhouse is what some people might call a well-meaning but meddlesome matchmaker. A new film version of the Emma book is in theaters starting today. While Jessup Library cannot arrange dates or marriages for our patrons, we have a wonderful and diverse selection of book recommendations here and would be pleased if you would make their acquaintance. Please don't be put off by pride and prejudice -- we can recommend all types of books from subjects as diverse as "Arts, Crafts, Fashion & Music" to "Travel, Outdoors & Languages." We encourage your sense and sensibility when it comes to making the right literary connections and hope you look forward to a 28-day relationship loan period.
