Library Teen Advisory Groups - Diane P. Tuccillo

. .

Résumé :
Although teen advisory groups flourish in many libraries, no how-to guidebook has ever been published for librarians who run them. At last, the activities and policies of actual groups in school and public libraries are described in detail in this essential handbook. From funding to bylaws, from starting a new group to rejuvenating an old one, from classic projects to unique roles, from community involvement to voting on adult library boards, Tuccillo covers the wide landscape of teen advisory groups of all stripes and types.
