Question Tuesday!
Now that we’re all set up for the final voting in the WRPCAs, I have a question for you. What should we do differently next year? We have already discussed adding ‘Best Compilation Album’ and getting rid of the ‘Non-Hogwarts Band’ category (it’s just too confusing). Other categories, a different procedure? Let us know what…

The nominations are in, and it’s time for the final round of voting for the Wizard Rock People’s Choice Awards!

More Library Love for Wizard Rock
The placard outside Joy’s office reads “Collection Development and Wizard Rock Librarian”, but until a few weeks ago, “wizard rock librarian” didn’t mean much in the official sense. Recently, along with another librarian friend and wrock fan, Annette, Joy petitioned the Library of Congress to add wizard rock as an official subject heading. Now as…

Some of the categories have a more specific definition this year (like, “Best Band Featuring a Magical Creature from the…
