Free Webinar! Graphic Novels: A Gateway for Reluctant Readers

Below is a description for a free Webinar from the Texas State Library and Archives. It's only an hour long, so why not sign up! Don't delay because the Webinar is next week, Tuesday September 7, 2010 from 10:00 - 11:00 AM (CST).

"During this one hour webinar, Kyla Hunt, Library Services Consultant for the Texas State Library & Archives Commission, will talk about how reading graphic novels can help build literacy. She will discuss how and why various types of comics appeal to different reader-groups, from wordless picture books for younger kids to manga for teens. The webinar will end with discussion of program ideas designed to encourage readers to get excited about the world of comics, and eventually, the world of reading."

  1. This is the first time that I have heard of a webinar with a focus on comics and manga. If I knew about this earlier, I would have participated. Regardless, thank you for the info! I wish you much success, my fellow librarian!
