It's no longer about just about having the 'best' collection. As education shifts to a learnercentered environment, collection development must address the dynamic interplay between all stakeholders in the wider school community. Based on the latest educational theory and research, HughesHassell and Mancall recommend a plan to operate school media centers in the midst of radical flux, while meeting students' information needs in a holistic context.Connecting to the guidelines of Information Power, the premier learnerfocused model for library media centers, Collection Management for Youth is grounded in educational theory to help connect the 'whys' to the 'hows'. The authors pose a challenge to school library media specialists and supervisors, youth librarians in public libraries, and educators: Given these tools, are you willing to become learnercentered collection managers, to wear the hats of change agents, leaders, learners, and research guides?This groundbreaking guide will help youth librarians: Develop and manage collections that meet the changing needs of learners Address a dynamic educational process and everchanging resource base Become an informed teacher and information guide Tap into the school's broadest learning community to build partnershipsAddressing both print and electronic information sources, this musthave manual is filled with eleven fieldtested tools to encourage collaboration and help put the concepts to work.
