It may be taboo to say, but some groups in America do better than others. Mormons have recently risen to astonishing business success. Cubans in Miami climbed from poverty to prosperity in a generation. Nigerians earn doctorates at stunningly high rates. Indian and Chinese Americans have much higher incomes than other Americans; Jews may have the highest of all.

Why do some groups rise? Drawing on groundbreaking original research and startling statistics, The Triple Package uncovers the secret to their success. A superiority complex, insecurity, impulse control—these are the elements of the Triple Package, the rare and potent cultural constellation that drives disproportionate group success.

L I B R A RY S P O T L I G H T ROBIN NESBITT Word of mouth has always been a crucial part of book sales, and across the country, local librarians are giving personal

recommendations

every

day.

A

group

of

librarians looking for ways to keep the publishing industry robust realized that making those very recommendations could help out, if only those recommendations received more national attention. Enter LibraryReads, a website that tracks librarians’ personal picks for the top 10 new releases every month. LibraryReads member Robin Nesbitt, Manager of the Columbus Metropolitan Library’s Hilliard Branch, spoke with Forecast about the grassroots effort to promote great reads. Forecast: What should publishers know about

write in the margins.

Robin Nesbitt: We want publishers to think of libraries as places that push books, because we are. We’re not-for-profit, but we have [the] same mission they do: Encouraging book discovery and penetration. In an era when some bookstores are closing, it’s important for publishers to see libraries as partners in this, because libraries remain a strong and vital “third place” in people’s lives. LibraryReads already has the support of dozens of libraries, the American Booksellers Association and the American Library Association.

RN: IndieBound is a great effort by independent booksellers to stand together by promoting themselves and their top picks among new releases on the Indie Next list. The list of monthly releases builds on what we’ve seen work well in bookstores: Those shelves of “favorites.” People love staff picks and reader picks; it’s like social media in person. Any list that highlights a collection of select books

plan to expand at some point to YA and children’s. November 2013 was our third list and we’re gaining steam. We want to encourage participation from our colleagues. They can go to our website, libraryreads.org, and click on the tab for librarians.
