Library Journal has published its 2008 list of Movers and Shakers. Among those recognized are several librarians who serve children. And they are:
Devo Carpenter, Children’s’ Program Specialist, Austin Public Library - created the award-winning Second Chance Books program for incarcerated youth (including children under 14 years old).
Sarah Erwin, Assistant Director, Kirkwood Public Library (MO) – Youth services with a punch (and an impact on the bottom line).
Lucía González, Miami-Dade Public Library System (MDPLS) – storyteller extraordinaire.
Tony Tallent, Director of Youth and Outreach Services, Public Library of Charlotte & Mecklenburg County (PLCMC) – launched the Tricycle Music Fest for young children and their parents.
If someone is missing from this list please leave a comment about them.
