商品簡介
Arising from discussions at the 2009-2010 Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA) Presidential Advisory Task Force, this book explores a variety of questions facing librarians providing services for teenagers. It focuses primarily on possible changes in collection development, development of activity programs, and keeping up with trends in information technology that tend to be explored first by teens. Also covered is risk mitigation from an administrator's standpoint. First person accounts of navigating change and making risky career moves, and interviews with authors writing "risky" material are interwoven throughout the text. Seven appendices covering subjects such as assessing risk readiness for a library and websites for relevant library blogs and articles are included.
