The Association of Children's Librarians of Northern California (ACL) was founded in the 1930s by a group of public and school librarians interested in library work with children and young adults. Its purpose is to strengthen and maintain work with youth in the libraries of Northern and Central California according to the highest standards of professional librarianship. Members meet monthly to review books for young people and discuss related issues. ACL reviews are published in BayViews, a journal of book reviews and opinions with a western perspective.
