FAB CLUB

Like many other area libraries, the Elk Grove Village Public Library has available an automatic "Hold" option for patrons. Called the "FAB Club"--Favorite Authors Book Club--, each interested patron checks off their favorite authors from a pre-printed list of 140 fiction writers. When a new book by any of the chosen authors comes in, the patron is automatically put on the "Hold" list for that book. There is no guarantee that the patron's position in the queue will be near the top, but it does ensure that the patron will not miss the latest hardcover novel by a favorite author. The form/list can be filled out at the Adult Services Desk.

Among the authors on the list are:
Lilian Jackson Braun
Tom Clancy
Mary Higgins Clark
Patricia Cornwell
Clive Cussler
David Eddings
Elizabeth George
Sue Grafton
John Grisham
Stephen King
Elmore Leonard
James Patterson
Elizabeth Peters
Nora Roberts
