  • Books Beyond Bars
    Books beyond bars The transformative potential of prison libraries The human right to education is particularly important in the prison environment, as prisoners often come from disadvantaged socio-economic and educational backgrounds. This publication explores the extent to which prison authorities fulfil their societal mandate to rehabilitate and reintegrate inmates by enabling them to use prison libraries to pursue their right to education, access relevant information or simply enjoy reading a good book. Reading and using a prison library can open up a world beyond prison bars, allowing prisoners to forget for a time the harsh reality of prison life and empowering them to choose their own reading materials in an otherwise extremely restrictive and regulated environment. Providing access to relevant books and information, including easy reading materials and in various languages, is crucial for prisoners’ personal development. This publication takes a closer look at selected examples of prison library systems around the world, outlining best practice and possible challenges, thus demonstrating their transformative potential as informational, educational, cultural and recreational meeting and learning spaces. Lisa Krolak Books beyond bars The transformative potential of prison libraries Lisa Krolak Published in 2019 by the UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning, Hamburg © UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning The UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL) undertakes research, capacity-building, networking and publication on lifelong learning with a focus on adult and continuing education, literacy and non-formal basic education.

Bibliotherapy for the Inclusive Elementary Classroom Abstract In my life, music and reading have brought me great joy and escape. To disappear from the world I would read a book, and to deal with stress I would play my piano. Entering Eastern Michigan University from high school I was very interested in looking into the Music Therapy Program. I had worked with students with special needs at my past elementary school and had recently welcomed a baby cousin into my family who was born with severe Cerebral Palsy. I had experienced firsthand the healing power of music with adults and children, and I wanted explore this major. After auditioning, I discovered pure Music Therapy was not my true dream because teaching was my passion. I decided to use music therapy in the classroom and my path was set for elementary education. However at the end of my third year, while choosing a topic for my thesis, my advisor mentioned Bibliotherapy and without even knowing fully what it involved, something in my soul screamed “Yes” and that became my Senior Honour Thesis Topic.

  • A Never Ending Never Done Bibliography of Multicultural Literature for Younger and Older Children
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 407 388 SP 037 304 AUTHOR Walters, Toni S., Comp.; Cramer, Amy, Comp. TITLE A Never Ending Never Done Bibliography of Multicultural Literature for Younger and Older Children. First Edition. PUB DATE 96 NOTE 51p. PUB TYPE Information Analyses (070) Reference Materials Bibliographies (131) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Adolescent Literature; Adolescents; *American Indian Literature; American Indians; Asian Americans; *Black Literature; Blacks; Children; Childrens Literature; Elementary Secondary Education; *Ethnic Groups; *Hispanic American Literature; Hispanic Americans; United States Literature IDENTIFIERS African Americans; *Asian American Literature; Latinos; *Multicultural Literature; Native Americans ABSTRACT People of all ages are addressed in this bibliography of multicultural literature. It focuses on four major ethnic groups: African Americans, Asian Americans, Latino Americans, and Native Americans. Within each category a distinction is made between those works with an authentic voice and those with a realistic voice. An authentic voice is an author or illustrator who is from the particular ethnic group and brings expertise and life experience to his/her writings or illustrations. A realistic voice is that of an author or illustrator whose work is from outside that experience, but with valuable observations. An asterisk notes the distinction. No distinction is drawn between juvenile literature and adult literature. The decision is left to the reader to make the choices, because some adult literature may contain selections appropriate to children. Two appendices provide: a selected annotated bibliography (14 entries) on multiethnic/multicultural literature references and analyses and sources of multiethnic/multicultural books.(SPM) ******************************************************************************** Reproductions supplied by EDRS are the best that can be made from the original document.

A great deal of elderly people desire to integrate better and improve quality of their life, but unfortunately face many difficulties. Learning at an older age can help overcome those challenges and it is universally recognized that reading is one of the most accessible forms of learning for the elderly. The most effective is purposive reading or bibliotherapy. It is a method which uses reading to reinforce what is already good and healthy within a person, makes it easier to adapt, and weakens influence of negative environment. Reading sessions can be held in a variety of venues, such as libraries, hospitals, and elderly care homes. The fact that all partners’ countries face similar challenges has encouraged organizations

World rights for translation are available for many of our titles. To date our books have been translated into over 25 languages. Bibliotherapy and graphic medicine Sarah McNicol, Manchester Metropolitan University 1. Introduction While most bibliotherapy activities focus on the use of written text, whether in the form of novels, poetry or self-help books, in recent years there has been a growing interest in the use of graphic novels and comics as a mode of bibliotherapy. The term ‘graphic narratives’ is used in this chapter to include both graphic novels and shorter comics in both print and digital formats. The chapter explores the ways in which graphic narratives of various types might be used as an effective form of bibliotherapy. It considers how the medium can be particularly effective in supporting important features of bibliotherapy such as providing reassurance; connection with others; alternative perspectives; and models of identity. It then draws on examples of bibliotherapy collections from different library settings to demonstrate some of the ways in which graphic narratives are currently used in bibliotherapy practice, or might have potential to be used in the future.

Introduction At the era of Artificial Intelligence, billions of words are needed to train, fine-tune and test Neural Machine Translation systems (Koehn and Knowles, 2017; Linzen, 2020). Quality assessment of the models therefore requires the creation of a lot of annotated corpora.
