| Did you know that 85% of librarians think it is "very" important to have a diverse book collection for children and teens, but 15% of them find it difficult to find titles that will round out their collections? |
DEMAND DIVERSITY:
Why diverse titles are a must in your library
January 22 | 3PM ET | Register The world is a diverse place. No two people, communities, cultures or mindsets are identical. As librarians, itâs critical to offer a collection that is as diverse as your readers. Seeing ourselves in books is validatingâand seeing others in books is mind-expanding. And both are essential to reaching readers where they are. Join us Wednesday, January 22 at 3PM (ET) to learn all about diversifying your collection. JLGâs own Drew Scott and Angela Christianson, a former public librarian herself, will share the importance of diversifying, the wide breadth of what is considered âdiverseâ and how you can round out your collection. Plus, theyâll explore the JLG categories and selections that are ideal for diversifying your shelves! Canât make the live webcast? Register to receive a link to the on-demand recording.
