Book Synopsis The Personal Librarian by : Marie Benedict
Download or read book The Personal Librarian written by Marie Benedict and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Instant New York Times Bestseller! A Good Morning America* Book Club Pick! Named a Best Book of the Year by NPR! Named a Notable Book of the Year by the Washington Post! “Historical fiction at its best!”* A remarkable novel about J. P. Morgan’s personal librarian, Belle da Costa Greene, the Black American woman who was forced to hide her true identity and pass as white in order to leave a lasting legacy that enriched our nation, from New York Times bestselling authors Marie Benedict and Victoria Christopher Murray. In her twenties, Belle da Costa Greene is hired by J. P. Morgan to curate a collection of rare manuscripts, books, and artwork for his newly built Pierpont Morgan Library. Belle becomes a fixture in New York City society and one of the most powerful people in the art and book world, known for her impeccable taste and shrewd negotiating for critical works as she helps create a world-class collection. But Belle has a secret, one she must protect at all costs. She was born not Belle da Costa Greene but Belle Marion Greener. She is the daughter of Richard Greener, the first Black graduate of Harvard and a well-known advocate for equality. Belle’s complexion isn’t dark because of her alleged Portuguese heritage that lets her pass as white—her complexion is dark because she is African American. The Personal Librarian tells the story of an extraordinary woman, famous for her intellect, style, and wit, and shares the lengths she must go to—for the protection of her family and her legacy—to preserve her carefully crafted white identity in the racist world in which she lives.

Book Synopsis Women Librarians in India by : Rajwant Kaur
Download or read book Women Librarians in India written by Rajwant Kaur and published by Ess Ess Publication. This book was released on 2013-07-25 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satisfaction among librarians both male/female has been engaging the attention of several researchers by conducting various surveys and studies. It is believed that satisfactory functioning of library and information services depends to a large extent on adequate, able, and motivated staff. This book in eight chapters is an empirical investigation using statistical methods to study the job satisfaction level of the working women librarians of India. To measure the level of job satisfaction of women library professionals working in university and college libraries it takes into account all the off-the-job and on-the-job factors that affect the job satisfaction in women workers. It finds out that for job satisfaction a woman worker has to maintain a healthy and firm balance between her work and home. For this she needs co-operation of her colleagues and seniors as well. Though financial or monetary factors do not matter much but she feels satisfied and interested in the job if she gains respect from the family and admiration from colleagues. This unique work in the LIS field in India will help the fair sex and guide the administrators to get the best from the female staff. The findings of this investigation will enable library managers to know the areas of feelings of satisfaction and dissatisfaction among women library professionals. These findings will hopefully yield a better understanding of the problems of women professionals and help the managers in future to make apt decision for the proper growth of the organisation they work for.
