Written by an experienced young adult librarian who has tested and refined these strategies in the real world, the book offers direction for related crafts, recommended resources, and extension activities, including peer mentoring or community service opportunities., This series meets the needs of Young Adult librarians, whether they are new to YA librarianship or experienced.
