Library Collections for Teens: Manga and Graphic Novels
Here's the most current and complete guide written for librarians to the fascinating world of Japanese and American manga and graphic novels. Written by two experts who are very popular workshop presenters, Fletcher-Spear and Jenson-Benjamin cover everything librarians need to know in the manga and graphic novels area, from evaluating, selecting, and ordering to building and integrating collections and defending titles. They cover both new and popular titles and series as well as what is classic and necessary for your collection. Chapters cover: a short history of graphic novels and manga, how the format is beneficial for readers, collection development and management (including selection criteria), how to evaluate a graphic novel for purchase, purchasing options (including publishers, specialty stores, vendor catalogs, and Diamond Comic Distributors), mending options, creative programs based on the format, and lists of titles you will want to have in your young adult collection. This debut VOYA Press/Neal-Schuman copublication will help you build a graphic collection your teens will love.
