A practical guide to building kid-friendly catalogs that help children and teachers find books with ease.
Designed for librarians and educators, this handbook explains how to combine cataloging technique with a clear understanding of children’s reading needs. It shows how to make subject headings simple, specific, and useful, so young readers can discover stories and information more quickly. The guidance emphasizes matching catalog structure to classroom work and school curricula, ensuring the catalog supports learning as well as browsing.
The approach treats children as active users, guiding how to group forms like myths, legends, plays, and ethical stories. It explains why and how to use child-appropriate terms, and how to organize materials so that a catalog becomes an instructional tool as much as a reference guide.
Ideal for readers involved in school and public library work who design or refine catalogs for younger audiences.
