Graphicology
Posted by SLA Website Editor on 18 Feb 2010 at 10:26
The SLA is making available a special offprint of the article "Graphicology" by Chris Brown from The School Librarian, Volume 57 Number 4, Winter 2009. At a time when graphic novels are receiving increasing amounts of attention, school librarians who extend their stock by incorporating graphic material may well find they are challenged to justify such expenditure. The article is designed to make the case for the value of graphic novels, to address some of the concerns that librarians often have about introducing them, and to help you engage staff and pupils.
Including a roundup of web resources, this special four-page offprint is a free PDF download.
