Comics and graphic novels are now generally accepted in most libraries-Hooray! However, the work of librarians in this field is far from complete. New advocates are lending their voices to achieve greater overall impact. This year’s ALA Annual will spotlight diverse voices in comics advocacy and offer viewpoints from various areas of expertise-Publishers and creators, alongside early career library workers, to explore how we can work collaboratively to maximize the current momentum.
