State Library is hosting a <b>webinar Thursday, November 9 at 3:30 p.m</b>. <b>on Building Diverse Holiday Collections</b>. When the snow starts to fall, you can count on holiday displays popping up in most libraries, schools, and bookstores in America. With
TeachingBooks’ Collection Analysis Tool, you can take a deeper look at the titles featured in your December displays and booklists. In this workshop, we will collectively analyze a holiday display, then identify new and diverse titles for inclusion. Registrants
will walk away with a conscientious, informed list of diverse holiday titles, as well as an action plan that details how to implement those titles in their existing collections. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
