Interested in writing something more in depth than a newsletter piece or blog post? Children and Libraries seeks scholarly and best practice articles, features on relevant issues in children's librarianship, and interviews with children's book creators. In addition, "The Last Word" is a short, end-page feature that runs in each issue--a brief, light essay such as a humorous story about a library experience or a short trivia quiz or puzzle about children’s literature. .
