R.A. Library For Librarians


Home Adult Links Tutorials

 

Welcome to the Reader's Advisory Library For Librarians.  Here you will find the web links to help you locate the next book for your patron, the print resources for those who prefer the feel of a reference book, and some tutorials to bring you up to date on being a truly helpful R.A. librarian.

Our mission is to collect the most useful information concerning Reader's Advisory and make it available to all librarians in one location. Selection of materials is made using tools including reviews in professional journals, special bibliographies, and other appropriate aids. All items are chosen on the basis of the following: 

    1.      Accessibility/Ease of Use

    2.      Authority/Source

    3.      Coverage/Scope

    4.      Currency

    5.      Interest and needs of library users

    6.      Organization 

    

The R.A. Library for Librarians is simply organized to promote ready reference for adult  readers' advisory questions through the access to links arranged by the type of patron question.  In addition, access to tutorials on providing better R.A. service in your library is included.  This site will be updated on a monthly basis.
