It is vital that Teacher Librarians are abreast of new literature being published. They need to purchase these and promote them to students so that students can extend themselves in what they are reading. Teacher librarians need to be aware of resources to support them in finding a range of different books and genres to assist them with purchasing such as: Magpies the source, Goodreads, subscriptions to publishing companies, blogs and subscriptions to educational magazines.

As I continue to learn more throughout this subject, I hope to add further resources to this list.

Further Resources Discovered:

The children’s book council of Australia website is a must for teacher librarians.  I am surprised with myself for forgetting to add this in earlier as it is extremely informative and such a useful resource when looking to increase knowledge in relation to children’s literature.
