Questions
• What is responsible for the change in types of materials with a high circulation rate between now and say, fifty years ago? Have the patrons’ interests changed?
• How do you anticipate this issue might progress as technology encompasses more and more facets of patron’s informational needs? What might libraries do to cope with this progression?
• The GTWTW plan did not have a huge impact on children’s literature- why is that do you think?
• What do you think of the concept of reader development? Is it
realistic for libraries to hope to engage readers in this way?
