Lookout Librarians! Flying Broomsticks!

With the recent debut of the play “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child” and release of the script there is sure to be in upsurge in demand for the ever popular original Harry Potter series.  Though there is sure to be some backlash at the format of the latest publication, fans new and old will again be drawn to the magic that is Harry Potter.

In the last public library I worked at we had cupboards full of duplicate, triplet, quadruplet…copies of the series because whenever a new movie was released new fans came in demanding the book.  It has now been 5 years since the release of the final movie and original Harry Potter fans are now in their 30s.  Still the magic has never worn off and it is your job as a librarian to be prepared.

So maybe, like myself, you have weeded the triplet and quadruplet copies and you may find yourself putting copies on hold or requesting from another library.  For the waiting period you will find the following list, bound to satisfy HP fans, beneficial to getting books into your eager readers hands.
