World Library Foundation Newsletter Dept.
2026
The World Library Foundation's newsletter for November 2026 (Volume 10, Issue 9), shared by all of its libraries. Moby-Dick at 175: Herman Melville's novel, first published in New York on November 14, 1851, sold barely 3,000 copies in his lifetime and waited nearly seventy years for its readers. Also in this issue: the Executive Director's message; Project Gutenberg Canada returns; the month's anniversaries - Collodi, Hewins, Twain and the year of radio; two voices in the collection for Native American Heritage Month; behind the shelves - one author, many names; poetry of the Great War in remembrance; and a Thanksgiving shelf.
