Genco, Barbara A.; And Others
School Library Journal, v37 n3 p115-19 Mar 1991
Three librarians--Barbara A. Genco from Brooklyn, New York; Eleanor K. MacDonald from Beverly Hills, California; and Betsy Hearne from Chicago, Illinois--share their perspectives on where popular literature should fit into library material selection and children's reading diets. Popular literature is defined as primarily that which has first appeared as part of a television show, cartoon series, or film. (SD)
