I popped into the library today to work for a couple hours on finding author images for the fiction endcaps. Here's a sample with the author Zadie Smith, whose recent novel NW, has garnered critical praise from fellow novelist, Ann Enright. "NW represents a deliberate undoing; an unpacking of Smith’s abundant narrative gifts to find a deeper truth, audacious and painful as that truth may be. The result is that rare thing, a book that is radical and passionate and real. "
My goal is to use somewhat muted "quiet" backgrounds, with accents of color, which seems the best fit for the Bexley Public Library's aesthetic. I've yet to nail down a specific typeface and font size, as for now it remains somewhat inelegant.
