[book1.jpg] Morris, Vanessa Irvin.  The Reader's Advisory Guide to Street Literature.  Chicago: ALA, 2012.  016.813 Morri     ISBN 978-0-8389-1110-5.
Street lit, also known as urban fiction, addresses with unflinching grit the concerns and problems of city living. Controversial in some quarters, it is also wildly popular, and this readers advisory by street lit expert Morris
*         Sketches out the rich history of the genre, showing why it appeals so strongly to readers and providing a quick way for street lit novices to get up to speed
*         Covers a variety of subgenres in terms of scope, popularity, style, major authors and works, and suggestions for readers advisory
*         Helps improve library customer service by strengthening the relationship between staff and any street lit fans who are new to the library
Emphasizing an appreciation for street lit as a way to promote reading and library use, Morris's book helps library staff provide knowledgeable guidance.


"H.W. Wilson's Core Collections (previously Standard Catalogs) have been collection development, readers' advisory and cataloging essential resources since 1918. These exhaustive resources are also valuable tools for collection maintenance and curriculum support. Richly enhanced records provide a wealth of useful information. All entries include complete bibliographic data as well as price, subject headings, annotations, grade level, Dewey classification, cover art, and quotations from reviews. Many entries also list awards, best-book lists, and starred reviews."  OSL loans its copies for libraries to use and inspect.  Although the State Library has not featured them in postings, we also have the following current collection development guides from H.W. Wilson for loan:
Children's core collection
Middle and junior high core collection
Public library core collection. Nonfiction : a selection guide to reference books and adult nonfiction
We also have many other collection development works to loan, so check our catalog at http://catalog.willamette.edu/screens/opacmenu_s2.html.
