Understanding Manga

Manga is a global phenomenon with sales and readership that dwarfs superhero comics and rivals non-comic bestsellers. In schools and libraries across North America, manga has been flying off physical and virtual shelves for years—driving circulation, encouraging independent reading, and even finding its way into classrooms with classic adaptations and innovative nonfiction.

Join us on Thursday, May 27th at 6pm EDT (3pm PDT) for this free webinar where our panel of experienced educators and librarians—Mike Barltrop, Jillian Ehlers, Michael Gianfrancesco, Ashley R. Hawkins—will share their insights on everything you need to know about manga.
