The Children's Literature Collection is a collection of juvenile literature appropriate for children from birth to grade 12. This collection of materials supports the learning, research, and teaching needs of the faculty and students of the College of Education and Health Professions, and is designed to provide future educators with access to high quality, diverse children's literature that can be used in PK-12 classrooms to support curricular goals.
All University of Arkansas students, faculty, and staff are invited to check out materials from the collection. We encourage the use of the collections by those community members caring for children, as well, and welcome children in the physical spaces of the Libraries.
