Center for Children's Books Open House

Please join the Center for Children’s Books faculty and staff for our annual open house.

Things that will greet you on your arrival:

Free books! The CCB Galley Giveaway starts the night of our open house where you will find prepublication books that include picture books, easy readers, folk and fairy tales, middle grade, and young adult books.

Apple cider and doughnuts from Curtis Orchard!

You will also have the chance to converse with CCB staffers and iSchool youth services faculty. There will be a short presentation at 4:00 p.m. to introduce you to the units that comprise Room 24: the Center for Children's Books and the Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books.

Learn about the range of iSchool-sponsored activities and programs for students, faculty, librarians, teachers, researchers, and community members who share our interest in literature and media for children and young adults.
