The iSchool's leadership in the field is reflected in our well-known publications, Library Trends and The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books. We also produce Intersections magazine, which covers the breadth of our School's excellence, highlighting the achievements of our faculty, staff, students, and alumni.
Library Trends, coedited by Clara M. Chu and Jaya Raju, is an essential tool for professional librarians and educators alike. Each issue explores critical trends in professional librarianship and includes practical applications, thorough analyses, and literature reviews. The journal is published quarterly for the iSchool by The Johns Hopkins University Press. Back issues (1952 through two years prior to the current issue) are available online through IDEALS.
The Bulletin, edited by Deborah Stevenson with assistant editor Kate Quealy-Gainer, is one of the nation's leading children's book review journals for school and public librarians, teachers, and others interested in children's literature. Each year, it reviews nearly one thousand new books for young people from birth to young adulthood, with each review offering an in-depth look at the book's content, reading level, strengths and weaknesses, and possible uses. The journal is published eleven times per year (monthly except for August) for the School by The Johns Hopkins University Press. Back issues (1947 through two years prior to the current issue) are available online through IDEALS.
