Balancing Your Library Without Breaking Your Budget:
Selecting the best print resources to complement emerging electronic materials for young readers

SPONSORED BY: Junior Library Guild and School Library Journal. Starts: Thursday, November 18, 2010; 2:00-3:00 pm EST.

As the amount of money available for collections decreases, staff counts shrink and demand increases, it is crucial that librarians redefine collection development and create new collection models to include the best print materials and emerging electronic resources.

This exciting Webinar presented by Junior Library Guild will delve into what young people read and how they read. The panel will explore the issues associated with long and short-term planning that will help ensure that print and electronic materials do not compete for dollars or readership. They'll also examine the difficulties created by the current lack of integrated review sources to guide them as they select print and electronic collections.
Panelists:
Brian Kenney, Editor of School Library Journal
Roger Sutton, Editor of The Horn Book
Susan Marston, Editorial Director of Junior Library Guild
Carol A. Gordon, Associate Professor in the School of Communication, Information and Library Studies at Rutgers University and Associate Director of the Center for International Scholarship in School Libraries
