Hello World!

We love libraries. We choose to work in them for our PR agency, SharpOrange. No WeWork, expensive office space, no jitters-inducing Starbucks or even home offices (well, occasionally) for us! We are Adam Zand and Greg Peverill-Conti, the principals of SharpOrange and the guys behind Library Land.

Since late 2017, we’ve visited almost 300 libraries across Massachusetts - a strong start to our goal of visiting every library in the state. We have also visited libraries in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Louisiana, New Hampshire, New York, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Virginia, and Washington, DC.

When we visit a library, we rate it on 11 criteria: parking/transportation, WiFi, meeting rooms, condition, completeness, community, friendliness, restrooms, noise, comfort level and the all-important "Good place to work?" Of course, we also work, meet with clients, talk to librarians, patrons, get inspired and almost always leave in a positive and productive frame of mind.

We created Library Land for people who love libraries - and to encourage more people to fall in love too. Check out our reviews of the libraries we’ve visited, read stories about what we’ve seen and learned, dig into the numbers in our rankings, keep track of our travels on our map of Library Land, scan the latest news, learn about our services, and like/follow us on Facebook and Instagram.

Lastly, please tell us about your favorite library and tag away at #LibraryLand and #LibraryLandProject. Email us at info@librarylandproject.org to let us know what you think.

Welcome to Library Land.
