Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Jones updates ALA's Directions for Library Service to Young Adults (2d ed., 1993) and includes planning models based on AASL's Information Power: Building Partnerships for Learning (ALA, 1998) and PLA's The New Planning for Results: A Streamlined Approach (ALA, 2001). These models include goals of YA services, core values, and arguments for youth services. Each model addresses providing services within a library setting, encouraging teen participation, and meeting the developmental needs of young adults. An extensive checklist of quality library services includes staffing, resources, facilities, and programming. Several appendixes provide added information not found together elsewhere, including YALSA's Strategic Plan, an excerpt from the IRA position statement on adolescent literacy, competencies for effective YA librarians, and normal adolescent development. This title will be useful to both the school and the public librarian. RBB

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: New Directions for Library Service to Young Adults (Paperback)
I had to buy this for school, but it is really an interesting book about how to serve teens. This book came on time for school reading. Will purchase again if I have to get another text book.
