Dear List Colleagues:

Next semester I am teaching two sections of a course called "Reading
Motivation for Children and Young Adults." This is required at Queens
for school library media specialists, but is also taken by students
who want to do youth services in public libraries. The texts will be
Krashen's POWER OF READING, Trelease's READ-ALOUD HANDBOOK,
MacDonald's STORYTELLER'S START-UP BOOK, and a coursepack of
articles. What I could use some help with is samples of good
book/media/website lists that working librarians in schools and
public libraries have done for real that I can share with the class.
With all my cross-country moving and dissertation-doing over the last
couple years, I find that my files are pretty dated, if they exist at
all. If any of you would share one or two copies of anything you are
particularly proud of, I would be happy to share it with the classes.
Please send it to the Queens address of the two below.

Thanks in advance for your help.

mystery.

Reading Rants (on the web) reviews excellent young adult books in very
cool, teen language.

Mary,
I just went to a workshop about websites for children's librarians
presented by Dan Ream (sponsored by Palinet). I have some excellent
websites that were presented at that workshop.
Children's Book Council -- www.cbcbooks.org/navigation/teachers.htm
Kids Report -- kids.library.wisc.edu/
KidsClick! Web Search -- sunsite.berkeley.edu/KidsClick!/
LibraryLand -- sunsite.berkeley.edu/LibraryLand/cen/cens.htm
Librarians Only -- www.alltogethernow.org/hi/hi.htm
Children's Literature Web Guide -- www.acs.ucalgary.ca/~dkbrown/index.html
vandergrift's special Interest Page --
www.scils.rutgers.edu/special/kay/kayhp2.html
You are probably already familiar with most of these. Hope this helps.
