Books recommended by bookstore MDs and librarians

Books recommended by bookstore MDs and librarians People who have an eye for great books   2019.10.07   Bookstore MDs, or merchandisers, and librarians are links between books and readers.They are a bridge between publishers that create books and readers of books.   Some people are closer to books and readers than others. These would be bookstore MDs and librarians. Bookstore MDs read dozens of books a week and decide what values the books hold after going through press releases from publishers, prefaces and tables of content. MD is an abbreviation for merchandiser, and they are responsible for selling books to readers by deciding what order books are to be displayed and what that display should look like. Librarians collect research, categorize it accordingly to fit their library's characteristics and help library users and readers find the research material they need.One thing these two groups have in common is that when readers are in search of...

Busan

Busan A City You Meet by walking its streets and crossing its bridges   2019.09.09     Busan. Frequently referred to as 'the second-largest city in South Korea' but these words don’t do the city justice. Of course, when it comes to objective data like population or the size of the economy, the description is true, but it would be regretful to leave the city's description at that single sentence, as Busan has its own unique culture. That uniqueness only grows in the oldest parts of the city. This is why one should walk through the streets and cross bridges to take a true look at Busan.     Travel into layers of time     The oldest and most cultural area of Busan is surely Bosu-dongA very old story that started during the time of the Korean War is continuing today.     For the longest time, Busan served more as an industrial city than a travel destination. It is a port city that leads to the Pacific...
