I am sending this at the request of Amy Cheney:
In the Margins is a virtual committee under the umbrella of the Library Services for Youth in Custody group. Our mission is to seek out and highlight fiction and non-fiction titles (PreK through adult level) of high-interest appeal to boys and girls, ages 9-21 who may fit into one or all of the following categories: multicultural (primarily African American and Latino), from a street culture, in restrictive custody and reluctant readers. We focus on finding self published and independent titles. In the Margins strives to find the best books for teens living in poverty, on the streets, in custody - or a cycle of all three!
We need 2-4 new committee members to serve. **
