About
We are currently living in a time that puts our jobs as librarians under intense scrutiny. This website was created by two high school librarians who know exactly how difficult it can be to be 100% certain of the books we purchase for our libraries. Yes, we read every professional review about a book. Yes, we check Common Sense Media. Yes, we ask other librarians when we are uncertain about a book. Unfortunately, we are only human and sometimes there are scenes in the books we purchase that we do not want in our libraries. Professional reviewers often don't discuss the items in books that could put our jobs in peril. As librarians, we are the only ones who truly understand and as such we created this website for librarians to review books in a way that will hopefully make purchasing new books slightly less stressful. If we work together, it should not take long to have a large amount of book reviews compiled for all librarians to use. This website is by librarians and for librarians. It is our hope that by working together, we can make the collection development process just a little easier for you all.
