School librarians are willing and excited to harness its overwhelming popularity, and the benefits are real: with manga, you’ll strengthen not only the circulation statistics in your school library but also engagement and inclusion. This easy-to-use guide will walk you through making it happen. Inside, you’ll discover 12 adaptable lesson plans that incorporate the AASL Standards, with additional national and content-specific standards also highlighted to enhance instructional partnerships; dedicated information for elementary, middle, and high school librarians; an overview of manga basics, such as key genres and publishers; advice on collection development, readers’ advisory, and organizing in your space; how manga collections and programming connect with and through all six of AASL’s Shared Foundations; guidance on ways to integrate manga into your lesson planning, including anime club content that nurtures a feeling of community; how manga connects with and through learners from marginalized communities; personal librarian stories beautifully illustrated manga-style by both high school learners and co-author Sybil M. TourÉ; and an appendix of manga recommendations sorted by age group and a helpful glossary.
