CCBC-Net Topics for October
Please continue to share children's and young adult literature-related announcements about conferences, workshops, online learning, or other opportunities over the next few days.
Then we'll dive into the October discussion. Here's what we'll be
talking about:
October CCBC-Net Topics:
First Half of Month: Civic Engagement: Books for Children and Teens to Prom ote Active Citizenship.You may have heard the news: there’s a presi dential election coming up! This year, like every other presidential electi on year, librarians and teachers are on the hunt for books relating to elec tions and presidential politics. But the work of being an engaged citizen g oes far beyond involvement in elections and voting (which also take place f ar more frequently than every four years). During the first half of O ctober, we invite you to share your ideas on books that can help educate yo ung citizens on and involve them in many different kinds of civic engagemen t (elections and politics included).  Second Half of Month: Trends and Transformations.We’ve had a number of discussion s over the years on CCBC-Net about trends in children’s and young a dult literature. During the second half of October, we want to take a sligh tly different approach. Rather than an extended discussion of a specific tr end (say, supernatural romance), we invite you to tell us about (a) t he trends you’re tired of and/or (b) the things you hope to see hap pen in children’s and young adult literature and publishing over th e next few years.
