Encountering a small piece of the children's publishing world through their presentations in web sites may be quite useful.

A B C D ... Alphabetical Name List of all Categories (no other information on this page except links to questionnaire pages.) Authors Among Us Home Page Notes About This Project In the fall of 2000, Jerri Garretson, owner of Ravenstone Press and a former children's librarian and author herself, responded to a suggestion from her husband, Peter, that a project to identify children's authors and illustrators who are, or who have been, librarians, would make an interesting web project and presentation subject. She began her effort to identify these creative people by posting a notice on the SCBWI (Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators) listserv requesting that subscribers who were in this group contact her, or let her know about those who fit the description. The response was outstanding. She also contacted other groups she thought might have knowledge of librarian-writers and illustrators. In early January 2001, she posted notices on the child_lit and PUBYAC listservs, and was quickly innundated with many more names. Jerri would like to thank not only all those writer-librarians who contacted her, but all the helpful members of SCBWI, child_lit, and PUBYAC who contacted her with suggested names.
