How bold to be in selecting Young Adult literature titles used to be the
toughest question that teachers and librarians faced. Now Web 2.0 has
become an intellectual freedom and equity issue and we’re faced with
ensuring that our students have the opportunity to create and
collaborate with others using new media.

Join Frances Bradburn, long-time advocate for Young Adult Literature and
now Project Director for the New Schools Project in North Carolina, in a
discussion of how our participatory culture is challenging us to think
in new ways about intellectual freedom and censorship.
