For this assignment, you are being asked to don your private investigator’s cap and make some careful observations “in the field.”

Children and Young Adult Literature on the Internet: an Introduction Ruth Kinnersley Abstract Introduction Guides to Children's and Young Adult Literature on the Internet Full-Text Children's Literature ... Addresses for Sites in this Presentation Abstract This presentation is intended to introduce some Internet sites related to literature for children and young adults, and to provide a sampling of the types of sites which are available. Guides to children's and young adult literature on the web; sites which contain full-text, reviews, or bibliographies of children's literature; teaching activities; and general sites for kids which include children's and young adult literature are examined. Those who are interested in Internet-based teaching activities, or ideas for the use of children's and young adult literature in the classroom, would find this presentation useful. Introduction In selecting sites for this presentation, a number of factors were taken into consideration: comprehensiveness of a site (the depth and/or breadth of material related to children's literature), how well the site is maintained and updated, who created or maintains the site, and individual features, such as unique lists, chat areas, and search engines. Guides to Children's and Young Adult Literature on the Internet The first site in this presentation is one of the best "organizing" sites for finding children's lit on the Internet. The Children's Literature Web Guide http://www.ucalgary.ca/ ~dkbrown/index html) was created and is maintained by David K. Brown Director of the Doucette Library of Teaching Resources at the University of Calgary. He provides access to online children's stories, general children's literature resources, journals and reviews online
