A Revamped Globe Books Website
Globe readers love to curl up with a good book...almost as much as they love to curl up with a good laptop.

That's why we've revamped the Books area of globeandmail.com to complement the re-launch of our Books newspaper section in the award-winning Globe Focus section on Jan. 10.

  
 
Designed to serve passionate bibliophiles who want to uncover "the story behind the story" as well as casual readers looking for fast and accurate recommendations, globeandmail.com's new Books area will include:
  • A daily book review.
  • Editor's Choice.
  • Book and publishing industry news.
  • National bestseller lists, including bestseller lists of Canadian titles.
  • Blogs from editor Martin Levin and communities editor Peter Scowen.
  • Searchable archives that date back to 2000.
  • Buried Treasure, a weekly feature in which Levin discusses an important book that may have slipped through the traditional review cracks.
  • Essays by high-profile authors on a variety of engaging topics.

  
 
What's more, the new Globe Books site will incorporate a wide range of web-only features that will help readers better connect with Canada's thriving online books community.

Among them are:
  • Online discussions with some of the biggest names in books. Confirmed guests include Giller Prize winner Joseph Boyden, best-selling author Wally Lamb and acclaimed mystery writer P.D. James.
  • Multimedia content, including video interviews and podcasts.
  • Links to Globe Book’s Facebook fan page.
