Diversity in Children's Literature

Archived since: Mar, 2017

Description:

Both the Hatcher Graduate Library and the Special Collections Library have significant children’s literature collections. In recent years, there has been a growing awareness of the importance of diversity in children’s literature among authors, publishers, librarians, and readers. Therefore, a web archive focused on Diversity in Children’s Literature will complement current collection strengths across the Library and will serve future researchers by documenting an important movement in the field of children’s literature. The centrality of social media to the movement, and as a site for ongoing conversations, makes web-archiving a particularly appropriate mechanism for documenting the diversity in children’s literature “discussion.” We hope that, as much as possible, the scope of the archive focuses on the authentic voices of content creators. Formats collected will include social media accounts, blogs, organizational websites, selected publishers’ websites, selected awards websites and other digital content.
