Flavor of the Month

摘要

Move over, Cherry Garcia. If Andy Woodworth has his way, the next hot Ben & Jerry's flavor could be Gooey Decimal System.rnThe 32-year-old adult services librarian at Bordentown Library, NJ, Woodworth is creator of "People for a Library Themed Ben & Jerry's Flavor," a Facebook group he started in June 2009 that's mushroomed to more than 8000 members and quickly gained international media and blogging attention. (It's been picked up by Andrew Sullivan's Daily Dish, The New Yorker's The Book Bench blog, Britain's The Guardian, and even the United Arab Emirates newspaper, The National.)rnBut don't be fooled. Woodworth's project has a hidden agenda-it's part of a multipronged advocacy effort to get libraries noticed, appreciated, and funded.
