LITEC 54 — Literature and Services for Youth
Students will learn how to provide a range of library services to children and young adults, including reference services, programming, readers' advisory, and information literacy instruction. Students will also learn about genres of literature for children and youth and be introduced to best practices for selecting materials for library collections. Emphasis will be placed on anticipating cultural and individual differences within user populations and developing library collections and services for children and youth to respectfully acknowledge and accommodate such diversity.
