The Notable Children’s Books committee gets a lot of love from this blog and much deserved. This is the rare committee that allows all of us to listen in to the evaluation process. The discussion is rich, respectful, well-thought out, sometimes heated. It’s so wonderful to listen to a group where 11 librarians have all read and pondered the same books.
Do you realize what a time & space commitment reading ALL of the books for 0-14, fiction, non-fiction entails? Give this committee your time, love, and attention whenever you have downtime in your afternoon.
If you’re looking for something to do RIGHT NOW, they just started discussing the picture books!!!
