School Library Connection, November 1, 2016

This new series covers a lot of ground on a wide range of topics that are not covered often enough nor comprehensively enough in our schools. As such, these are terrific additions to any school library. One might think, with topics such as college financing or certificates of deposits, that these would be a hard sell for a lot of students. However, with splashy infographics and colorful fonts outlining personal stories from real-life teens in the exact situations our students may be facing, teens (not to mention their parents) should certainly appreciate the friendly, easily digestible ways in which these daunting topics are broken down. Especially worthy of note would be how the FAFSA is covered as well as the dangers of misusing credit. Additional Resources. Glossary.
