SUMMARY:Picture Books: How We Learn to Value Print and Love Libraries
DESCRIPTION:Over the past two decades\, authors\, illustrators and 
 publishers have been countering the move toward online learning and 
 digital-only resources with a variety of books for young children that 
 emphasize the importance of printed books and of libraries as spaces filled 
 with diverse populations and physical copies of books. \n\nIn an era where 
 screens often dominate children’s attention\, these creators have 
 produced imaginative and visually engaging works that celebrate the 
 tactile\, multisensory experience of holding a printed book. This 
 presentation will examine works such as Stacey’s Remarkable Books by 
 Stacey Abrams\, Library Day by Anne Rockwell and Give Me Back My Book by 
 Travis Foster and Ethan Long and consider what lessons they might offer 
 adults\, too.  \n\nMargaret D. Stetz is the Mae and Robert Carter 
 Professor of Women's Studies and Professor of Humanities. Stetz has 
 authored more than 130 articles and several books and exhibition catalogues 
 (including British Women's Comic Fiction\, 1890-1990\; Facing the Late 
 Victorians\; and Aubrey Beardsley\, 150 Years Young). She also serves as 
 co-editor of volumes such as Legacies of the Comfort Women of WWII and 
 Michael Field and Their World\, in addition to being a widely published 
 poet. She has been curator or co-curator of more than a dozen exhibitions 
 on late-19th-century print culture and art at museums and libraries in the 
 US and the UK. \n\n \n\nThis in-person event is free and open to the 
 public.  \n\nWe encourage all event attendees to RSVP in advance. Please 
 join us after the presentation for light refreshments and networking. 
 \n\nThis is the 2025 Faculty Lecture\, an annual event sponsored by the 
 Friends of the University of Delaware Library.  \n\n
