This presentation focuses on what the American Library Association (ALA) and its youth associations (ALSC & YALSA) have done in the past to support and encourage diverse collections and services, as well as what they are doing currently.

The document discusses broadening the perspectives of students by expanding the literary canon taught in schools. It proposes several approaches for selecting a more diverse range of literature, including focusing on particular themes (like family), regions (like Latin America), cultures (through works about food), or individual countries represented through different perspectives. Resources for finding international children's and adolescent literature are provided, with the goal of helping students understand other cultures and become global citizens through exposure to books from around the world in their classrooms.Multicultural Literature Blogs

The document discusses several book blogs that focus on promoting multicultural and diverse literature. These blogs provide reviews of new and upcoming books, compile reading lists of titles by authors of color, and help publicize books that may not receive mainstream attention. Maintaining an active blog allows readers to have conversations through comments and helps book bloggers influence the marketplace and build relationships with other bloggers and readers.Defining and Valuing Children's Literature

This document discusses different perspectives on what constitutes children's literature and its value. It explores how children's literature is defined, including views that it is literature written for, by, or read by children. It also examines the value of children's literature in sparking imagination and as children's first encounters with literature. Views disagree on whether educational or entertainment value should be the focus in children's literature.7210 jones esther_ignite - handout_evaluating muslim stories

1) The document proposes including a glossary of seldom used words at the back of novels, books, and magazines to improve readers' vocabularies without disrupting their enjoyment.
2) Currently, readers may skip looking up unfamiliar words and forget their meanings, limiting their vocabulary over time.
3) A glossary would allow readers to learn new word meanings without using a separate dictionary, in a non-distracting way.
4) Authors could select the most frequent unfamiliar words to define, avoiding making texts too cumbersome.Fun based Learning with Reading & Writing skills

This document discusses fun and play-based learning approaches to developing reading and writing skills. It describes setting up provocations or discovery activities to engage student curiosity, where the adult facilitates rather than directs play. Provocations are meant to promote student-led inquiry, with an emphasis on the learning process over final products. The document also mentions developing reading habits, using reading logs and book reports, and having creative writing and art stations to foster writing skills.Reading is fun!

Readers' advisory services aim to match patrons with books they will enjoy reading for pleasure. This library service helps patrons select recreational reading materials. It has evolved from a prescriptive model in the early 20th century focused on "better books" to a more patron-oriented approach that values fiction reading. Readers' advisory librarians now use various print and electronic resources, as well as their own reading knowledge, to suggest titles to patrons based on books they have enjoyed previously. The goal is to foster enjoyment of reading and support for the library.Readers advisory services final

A good children's book selection policy is important to avoid censorship challenges and provide guidance for librarians. Selection policies outline the goals for a children's collection and procedures for how books will be chosen. They help defend against accusations of bias and provide transparency in decision making.

A good children's book engages children's imagination, uses fun language and pictures, and keeps children's attention while involving them in the story. It should be developmentally appropriate and stimulate learning. Classroom libraries are important for children to practice reading, but some argue centralized school libraries are more cost effective. Selection policies help guide book choices and address challenges in a transparent way to avoid censorship accusations.Group project final

It identifies four major categories of resources: encyclopedias and dictionaries, bibliographies and reader's advisory tools, atlases and almanacs, and databases and digital resources. The presentation will describe the best resources in each category based on evaluative criteria of authority, currency, and ease of use.

Reader's advisory involves connecting patrons to books through a variety of techniques. It helps patrons understand their reading tastes and can be applied to both fiction and non-fiction materials. To be effective, reader's advisors should read widely across genres, learn to think of related books, and familiarize themselves with review and book resources both online and in print. The reader's advisory interview involves listening to the patron, asking descriptive questions, restating their interests, and providing options without judgment.More from puckettkm (11)

The document discusses the key components of an effective independent reading program based on research. It states that students need access to books at their level, daily time to read in school, an engaging environment that fosters reading self-efficacy, and opportunities to choose their own reading materials. Schools must invest in books, teacher training, and ensure libraries are well-stocked with qualified librarians. Simply investing in reading management software alone is not proven to be effective and does not justify the expense. Effective literacy leaders need knowledge about children's literature in order to properly run an independent reading program.Newsletter for web
