VIRTUAL: Book Chat with Diverse BookFinder

Aug 04, 2020— 11:30 am

Book Chat with Diverse BookFinder

Looking to diversify your picture book collection? Don’t know where to start or need suggestions for good diverse books to read with the children in your life?

Join LPL Staff on Tuesday, August 4th at 11:30am for a live chat with the Diverse BookFinder on Facebook Live.
We’ll talk about how you can “balance your bookshelves” by answering three questions: WHO is represented on my shelves? HOW are they represented? WHAT are some great books currently out there?


The Diverse BookFinder is a comprehensive collection of children’s picture books featuring Black and Indigenous people and People of Color (BIPOC). DBF has cataloged and analyzed trade picture books fitting this criteria, published since 2002, to surface and create: a unique circulating collection, a search tool, and a source of critical data.
