With a renewed emphasis on facilitating learning, supporting
multiple literacies, and advancing equity and inclusion, the
thoroughly updated and revised second edition of this trusted text
provides models and tools that will enable library staff who serve
youth to create and maintain collections that provide equitable
access to all youth. And as Hughes-Hassell demonstrates, the only
way to do this is for collection managers to be learner-centered,
confidently acting as information guides, change agents, and
leaders. Based on the latest educational theory and research, this
book: presents the argument for why collection management decisions
and practices should focus on equity, exploring systemic
inequities, educational paradigm shifts, developments in the
information environment, and other key factors; lays out the
theoretical foundation for developing and managing a library
collection that facilitates learning, supports the development of
multiple literacies, and provides equitable access to an
increasingly diverse group of young learners; touches upon current
competencies and standards by AASL, YALSA, and ALSC; uses a
learner-centered and equity perspective to cover core issues and
criteria such as selection and removal of materials, budgeting, and
cooperation among libraries; shows how a business viewpoint can
assist the learner-centered collector in articulating the central
significance of the collection to learning; discusses how library
staff can work collaboratively to create policy and negotiate
budgets; and includes customizable tools and templates, including a
Stakeholder Contact/SWOT Analysis, Decision-Making Model for
Selecting Resources and Access Points that Support Learning and
Advance Equity, and Collection Development Analysis Worksheet. This
resource will be as useful to current school librarians and
supervisors, youth librarians in public libraries, and educators as
it will to LIS students.
