Description
Excellence in Library Services to Young Adults, second edition, delivers the details on what the best are doing. The executive board of the Young Adult Library Services Association has selected the fifty top library programs for young adults for inclusion in this book. Here are your hooks for getting teens involved. These programs encourage participation, self-discovery, and a love of libraries. The highly esteemed youth librarian Margaret Edwards (whose trust partially funded this project) believed that libraries and books can make a difference. Dedicated young adult librarians across North America are following in her footsteps, pursuing her dream with such programs as library-based coffeehouses, study centers, and special events; publication of poetry, book reviews, and newsletters by and for teens; mentoring, tutoring, and partnerships with local businesses; outreach to young adults with disabilities; teen-driven services from readers' advisory to web sites; and awareness counseling on such issues as teen parenting and the AIDS crisis.
