Event Details

Every other week, SDPL staff publish book reviews in the San Diego Union Tribune followed by a video review posted on SDPL social media the following week. Watch this week's Behind the Desk video and get bonus content about the book.

Librarian Steve Roman reviews All Systems Red by Martha Wells in which a security android assigned to a group of planetary scientists in a spacefaring future becomes self-aware.

Behind the Desk is our latest video series and delves deeper into the Recommended Reads published every other Sunday in the Union-Tribune. Check the Sunday Paper to see the latest review from SDPL staff or view our archives on the library website: https://sandiego.gov/sdplreviews.
