I'm presenting a program for school librarians on issues relating to Diversity and Collection Development in school libraries. I am also creating a survey of questions that suggest some of the possible issues or concerns that school librarians have with providing these types of resources. (For example, inability to locate publishers / vendors of materials, lack of funding, etc.) However, I also want to include other topics of concerns such as community standards, personal choices in selection, lack of background information about diverse cultures, languages, etc. I have several great resources in print that provide content, lesson plans, booklists, etc., and I have written some questions for the survey; however, I KNOW that I'm probably missing something that might be of importance--- especially to those of you who are working in the field. If you have any ideas or suggestions for survey questions, please let me know. I will provide you with the opportunity to answer the questions on the survey (if you are interested---and I hope you will be), as well as a LENGTHY list of resources, children's and YA books, and publishers of resources that you can download and / or share with your teachers. I'll post all of this to my wiki or the CML website (yet to be determined) for your convenience. Thanks for helping. I look forward to your suggestions! ~Shonda -- Shonda Brisco Assistant Professor / Curriculum Materials Librarian Mary L.
