American Library Association's 4th Annual Rainbow Bibliography Announced

Rainbow Bibliography helps librarians help LGBTQ youth


On January 15, the American Library Association published its fourth annual Rainbow Bibliography. The bibliography is essentially a comprehensive list of LGBT-inclusive books for readers under the age of 18.
It crosses genres to include fiction, non-fiction, poetry, graphic novels and celebrity memoirs. The bibliography is intended to be a support tool for librarians who might face controversy for placing LGBT-themed books on shelves. [Windy City Times]
