"Packed with useful resources, including eighteen real-life success stories, YALSA's key action areas and guidelines, adolescent developmental assets from the Search Institute, and standards for information literacy, this ground-breaking book will help you foster a thriving and loyal young adult constituency and a new direction for your services."--BOOK JACKET.
