Librarians ensure access to information and ideas for all by maintaining book collections that represent a diversity of viewpoints, providing recommendations tailored to individual readers, and working with teachers. They promote intellectual freedom and ensure their resources are open to the entire community. Some areas for further improvement include increasing the diversity of booktalks, expanding access to non-traditional materials, and helping readers find books that spark an emotional reaction.

Target-ing readers
This document provides guidance for teachers on motivating students to read through the TARGET framework: Trust, Access, Response, Guidance, Engagement, and Talk. It discusses establishing trust with recommended authors, providing access to books through various formats and genres, eliciting personal and critical responses, guiding students up the "reading ladder" through scaffolded experiences, engaging students using Cambourne's conditions for learning, and creating opportunities for book talks. Research findings on student motivations are presented, as are strategies like choice, differentiation, and complex yet accessible texts.
Children's Books Should Be Bowdlerized
This document discusses bowdlerization, which is the process of removing or altering parts of texts considered vulgar or objectionable. It provides examples of authors and works that have been bowdlerized, such as removing the N-word from Huckleberry Finn. The document argues that bowdlerization makes texts more inclusive and accessible to diverse audiences, prevents the resurgence of racism, and preserves childhood innocence by avoiding exposing children to problematic topics like racism, sex, and death. However, it also acknowledges that society and social acceptance are constantly changing.

Bibliotherapy: Children Finding Comfort through Literature
Bibliotherapy involves using literature to help children understand and cope with social and emotional issues. The goals are to help children understand their feelings, realize they are not alone, and provide coping strategies. Literature can address issues like bullying, death, divorce, disabilities and more. Reading about characters who experience similar issues helps children feel less alone and learn how to cope. Teachers, counselors and parents can use bibliotherapy by selecting age-appropriate books and facilitating discussions to help children deal with sensitive topics.
Evolution of a Librarian
The document summarizes how the author found her career as a librarian. With two young children and a limited budget, she began frequenting the local library for books, toys, movies and most importantly peace and quiet. She took up knitting as a relaxing hobby. Through her knitting community, she discovered her interest in libraries and enrolled in library school. She now works as a librarian, finding fulfillment through her career helping others in the way the library once helped her as a mother.

Whole child restoring_wonder_to_the-art of parenting
This introduction provides an example of how children can be deeply affected by events in subtle ways that parents may not fully recognize. When the author's daughter took a bus ride on September 11th, she was perceptive of the anxiety and details around her, though she did not express her own feelings for a few days. Her later actions, like turning off news coverage, showed she had processed the tragedy in her own way. The story illustrates that children have inner emotional depths and needs that parents must strive to understand in order to nurture the whole child. Philosophers and psychologists can provide insight into this relationship between a child's surface expressions and hidden inner world.

Choosing Children's Literature
This document discusses several aspects of selecting children's literature, including:
1) What makes an effective children's book depends on the genre - storybooks should have engaging elements while concept books should clearly convey their topic.
2) A good children's book stimulates imagination, uses enjoyable language, has developmentally appropriate content, and keeps children's attention.
3) When helping children choose books, the "Goldilocks strategy" of having them read a few pages and count unfamiliar words helps determine if a book is at their level.
4) Classroom libraries are important for giving students access and practice with reading, but books may become restricted if only available in one classroom. Tracking collections addresses this issue

Region 5
This document discusses strategies for educators to build a To-Be-Read (TBR) stack of books given the large number of books published annually and the challenge of reading a significant number. It recommends focusing recommendations on award-winning books like the Newbery, Caldecott, Printz and using genres to guide selections. Reviews and cover judgments can also help selections while being selective about what can realistically be read. Developing a reading plan is important to make the most of the TBR stack.
Librarians and literacy some random thoughts
This document discusses the role of librarians in promoting literacy and discusses various research and strategies related to literacy. It recommends that librarians serve as models of literacy, develop collections that encourage reading, and avoid labeling books. It summarizes research showing connections between school libraries and higher test scores. Other research discussed found that giving students choice in reading material and access to trade books promotes engagement. Recommended strategies include finding time for reading, showing interest in students, reading aloud, and exposing students to a variety of materials.
Want to raise readers be literacy models
The document discusses the results of a survey of 400 teachers and librarians across Texas about their reading habits and literacy practices. The survey found that most educators read only 1-2 books per month on average. This is concerning given that over 6000 books are published annually for K-12 readers. The document argues that to better support students and be strong literacy role models, educators need professional development to find time to read widely from different genres and formats, stay informed about new literature, and understand students' reading preferences. It provides recommendations for creating a literate school environment where reading is modeled and supported.

The document emphasizes finding these qualities in books to engage kids as readers.
Nerd camp 16
This document discusses the development of reading identity and factors that shape readers. It addresses how choice, access, and response influence a reader's identity formation. Childhood experiences, books encountered, discussions with others, and freedom to choose reading materials all contribute to one's reading autobiography and lifelong reading identity. The document also outlines factors like time, role models, access to books, choice, and diversity that impact the development of reading identity.

- 54. 54 There are many ways to describe Ms. Underdorf. She was brilliant and joyous, and she believed-probably correctly- that libraries contain the answers to everything, and that if you can’t find the information you seek in the library, then such information probably does not exist in this or any other parallel universe now or ever to be known. She was thoughtful and kind and always believed the best of everybody. She was, above all else, a master librarian and knew where to find any book on any subject in the shortest possible time. And she was wonderfully unhinged… And so the Amazing Armadillo.
