Reviews

"Supported with thorough research and abundant statistics, yet still highly accessible and readable..." Library Media Connection, October 2007

"Following its recommendations can help branch and rural librarians justify new titles and help all librarians more fully serve the variety of young adults who enter their doors. The authors make clear that a library safe haven can do more than get reading material to young people; it can save self-esteem and in some cases, lives." VOYA, August 2007
