If you're a librarian charged with collecting curriculum materials
and children's literature to support the Common Core State
Standards, then this book-the only one that offers explicit advice
on collection development in curriculum collections-is for you.
While there are many publications on the Common Core for school
librarians and K-12 educators, no such literature exists for
curriculum librarians at the post-secondary level. This book fills
that gap, standing alone as a guide to collection development for
curriculum librarians independent of the Common Core State
Standards (CCSS). The book provides instruction and guidance to
curriculum librarians who acquire and manage collections so you can
develop a collection based on best practices. The book begins with
a primer on the CCSS and how curriculum librarians can support
them. Discussion of the Standards is then woven through chapters,
arranged by content area, that share research-based practices in
curriculum development and instruction to guide you in curriculum
selection. Material types covered include games, textbooks,
children's literature, primary sources, counseling, and nonfiction.
Additional chapters cover the management of curriculum collections,
testing collections, and instruction and reference, as well as how
to support and collect for special needs learners. Current
practices in collection development for curriculum materials
librarians are also reviewed. The book closes with a discussion of
the future of curriculum materials. Draws on current research and
interviews with some of the most experienced curriculum librarians
in the United States to help faculty and teachers better understand
the Common Core Provides explicit applications of the CCSS for
librarians working in post-secondary institutions Covers the
diverse teaching strategies of faculty and teachers Includes an
extensive appendix with lists of books that support all curricular
areas, as well as lesson ideas and other resources Offers a
regularly updated companion website
