Manga 101:
What sets manga apart, and why will it fly off your shelves? This webinar will demystify how Japanese comics work and recommend plenty of titles for teens and younger readers, including opportunities for programming. Whether you already know your seinen from your shojo or aren’t sure how to pronounce manga, this session will prepare you to include them in your collections and event calendar.

Presented by Thomas Maluck:
With more than 10 years of experience as a Teen Services Librarian, Thomas Maluck works at Richland Library - the 2017 IMLS National Medal winner - in Columbia, South Carolina. He has composed articles for Public Libraries, The Hub, Book Riot, Comics Bookcase, Toastmaster, and Library Trends. He also reviews graphic novels for No Flying No Tights and School Library Journal.

In addition to being a writer and local author, Thomas co-hosts a podcast, called The Secret Stacks, about comics and libraries. He has spoken about podcasting, graphic novels, and teen programs at events such as New York Comic Con, American Library Association conferences, and the closing keynote of the Quebec Library Association’s 2019 annual conference.

While studying for his MLIS at the University of South Carolina, he won a Student Book Collecting Award from Thomas Cooper Library for his curation of the works of “God of Manga” Osamu Tezuka. He has been on YALSA’s Great Graphic Novels For Teens selection committee as well as the Cybils Award jury for middle and high school nonfiction.

Pop YS Description:

Join us once a month for a POP of continuing education for all things youth services. Every month, we'll shine a spotlight on something new and relevant to youth services. Some months will be dedicated entirely to collection development, some months will look at programming, and some months you'll hear directly from other librarians in Iowa about what they're up to. No matter what, attendees will leave each session with new ideas for best practices and keeping youth services fresh.
