Childrens

[close] The Istanbul School Librarians Network is a group of school librarians who meet 2 - 3 times a year to support each other and discuss library matters. These are the books we have discussed at our Book Chat meetings. Book Chats happen each month - we meet to talk about children and YA books. One month we are in Asia and the next in Europe but always in Istanbul. Event details are posted to our group via email. Our wiki site is found at http://turkkutuphane.wikispaces.com/

[close] This group is dedicated to connecting readers with Goodreads authors. It is divided by genres, and includes folders for writing resources, book websites, videos/trailers, and blogs. Feel free to invite some friends to join our Round Table community!http://www.goodreads.com/group/invite_members/26989-goodreads-authors-readers -Vincent Lowry (Moderator, Author, & Photographer) *Masthead photo: Taos, NM (c) 2021 by Vincent Lowry Slide Show: http://youtu.be/QKOPP4kIGLc Authors and readers are invited to check out these additional links: 1) The Author Resource Round Table on Goodreads: http://www.goodreads.com/topic/group_folder/116489?group_id=26989 2) The E-Author Resources blog: http://eauthorresource.wordpress.com/ 3) The Book Video blog: http://ratemybookvideo.wordpress.com/

[close] This global discussion group has been designed to encourage debates about important and underreported issues of our era. All you need is an enquiring mind and a desire to gain or share “underground knowledge”. This is also a place to discuss the controversial topics explored in The Underground Knowledge Series (non-fiction books) by James Morcan & Lance Morcan as well as the Underground Knowledge podcast show.

[close] Here's a place to discuss out-of-print, forgotten, obscure, and beloved juvenile literature which you would like to see republished or digitized. There are so many excellent, imaginative, timeless classics that have fallen by the wayside. It's tragic. This is a group to share these titles with other readers, in the greater hope that publishers will take note and will reprint them for another generation, or simply because other users love vintage juvenile literature and would like to track down used copies. All books discussed here should have been written and originally published well prior to the year 2000 (and preferrably well before that - pre-1980s especially!). We discuss books from another era. Therefore, non-PC and dated content is likely to offend some people. We ask that users be open-minded, not quick to anger, and if they dislike something or feel offended it, that they deal with those personal emotions in a constructive and mature manner (i.e. by navigating away from the discussion they dislike). Again, users should act 'in good faith' and respectfully to all. But this is also real life - we won't be censoring global content to cater to individual tastes and needs. That bit is your part to take of. :) (It's silly that I have to say that, but here we are...)
