At SLJ, we are covering the coronavirus pandemic and unimaginable nationwide school closures from every angle in an effort to assist you all. In today’s EH, we look at how publishers are altering their policies for online read-alouds, one librarian’s quest to make social-emotional needs (for staff and students) as important as tech issues and lesson plans, and a newly planned virtual book festival.
Jennifer LaGarde and Darren Hudgins offer a news- and media literacy-themed playlist, and “Teen Librarian Toolbox” blogger Karen Jensen checks in with teen librarians' efforts for their young patrons right now.
As many turn to books for comfort or escape (some things haven’t changed), editor-in-chief Kathy Ishizuka asked what people are reading and watching. See what others have on the nightstand and screen—and why—in these long days at home.
Meanwhile, we’re continuing to report stories and ask you all to stay in touch: What are you encountering in these remote learning days? Where are a librarian’s skills best-used? We’re looking into online book clubs, how different districts are providing for those who are food insecure, what library aides are doing now, and the situation at public libraries that remain open. Please email me at kyorio@mediasourceinc.com on these or any topics. Now, more than ever, let us know what you need from us.
Meet us online for Middle Grade Magic, SLJ’s one-day, free, virtual summit of all things middle grade literature. We have added more authors and expect it to be a day of information and celebration.In these uncertain times, we strive to be a constant for you—providing resources, sharing the stories of colleagues’ efforts, and navigating this unprecedented path together.
