Abstract
The “book dating” program at the Shirlington branch library in Arlington County has been drawing a lot of attention lately, due in large part to its novelty. Single young professionals are invited to bring in a couple of books — whether favorites, disappointments, or yet-to-be-read titles — to be shared during timed, three-minute “book dates” with other single patrons. The event is intended to draw young people into the library while providing an opportunity for them to meet other singles in the area. What happens next? Well, that’s a different story.
