This new edition, with tens of thousands more entries than the previous edition, is a vital resource for any librarian with young readers as patrons. This reference tool allows users to track down any children’s book—even hard-to-find titles from small presses. With so many titles, authors, illustrators, publishers, wholesalers, and distributors all in one consolidated source, finding the key information young readers need to track down their favorite books has never been easier. Just as in previous years, 2016’s Children’s Books in Print is separated into two large volumes, the first for categorization by Title and the second for categorization by Author, Illustrator, Publisher, and Wholesaler/Distributor name. All indexes are presented alphabetically, then numerically, ensuring effortless research for the user. Volume I begins with a special “How to Use” guide, with information on Compilation, Data Acquisition, ISBN Agency, SAN (Standard Address Number), and more, followed by enlarged sample entries for the Title Index, Publisher Name Index, and Wholesaler & Distributor Name Index. Next come lists of Publisher Country Codes, Country Sequence, Language Codes, and Abbreviations, making sure users can quickly and efficiently navigate this guide. The Title Index comprises the remainder of Volume I. Each entry in this Index contains definitive information about each book, including: Title, Contributor, Edition, Publication Year, Number of Pages, Grade, Binding Type, ISBN, Publisher, and Imprint Symbol. Featuring more than 55,000 contributors, Volume II starts off with an Author Index and Illustrator Index, where users can search for all works written or illustrated by a specific contributor. The Publisher Name Index follows, and each entry provides important company details such as Publisher Name, ISBN Prefixes, Division, CIP Identifier, SAN, Distributors, and Contact Information. The volume finally closes with the Wholesaler & Distributor Name Index, providing key components such as Distributor Name, ISBN Prefix, Division, SAN, and Contact Information. For 47 consecutive years, R.R. Bowker’s Children’s Books in Print has served as a top-shelf resource for librarians and their young patrons across the country. With over 250,000 titles on file, this updated reference tool continues to provide valuable, detailed information on children’s and young adult books far and wide.
