E7- Collection Development for Children

ASSIGNMENT 2

Submit this assignment to your tutor by the date specified on the schedule accompanying this course. Be sure to put your name on all pages.

Your assignment for this module is to compare the library’s collection with a printed selection list. With the course material provided, you will find a copy of the publication, Our choice. Compare your picture book collection with the picture book selection list in Our Choice.

  1. Check the list against your collection, noting which items are in your collection.
     
  2. Submit a list (include author and title only) of those items which are in your library.
     
  3. Submit a separate list of up to ten items from Our choice, which you do not have but would consider purchasing. Include the author, title, publisher and publication date for each item (so that you know how to order the title), and explain each of your choices. Each of your entries in this part of the assignment should look something like:

Bedard, Michael. Redwork. Toronto, Lester & Orpen Dennys, 1990.

I chose this title because it won the 1991 Governor General's Literary Award and the Canadian Library Association Book of the Year for Children. It is a story of love, mystery and friendship and I think might be of interest to the kids in my community.
