Description
So What's The Problem?
CML’s juvenile literature collection serves a three-fold purpose
• Supporting academic study of children’s/young adult literature
• Leisure reading collection
• Providing materials for use by CCSD teachers and students
Which means…
• Amazon’s e-book sales (and other info.) can guide leisure reading trends
• BUT…we also need input and buy-in from UNLV instructors and CCSD teachers
