  • A Narrative of Augusta Baker's Early Life and Her Work As a Children's Librarian Within the New York Public Library System B
    A NARRATIVE OF AUGUSTA BAKER’S EARLY LIFE AND HER WORK AS A CHILDREN’S LIBRARIAN WITHIN THE NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY SYSTEM BY REGINA SIERRA CARTER DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Educational Policy Studies in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2016 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor James Anderson, Chair Professor Anne Dyson Professor Violet Harris Associate Professor Yoon Pak ABSTRACT Augusta Braxston Baker (1911-1998) was a Black American librarian whose tenure within the New York Public Library (NYPL) system lasted for more than thirty years. This study seeks to shed light upon Baker’s educational trajectory, her career as a children’s librarian at NYPL’s 135th Street Branch, her work with Black children’s literature, and her enduring legacy. Baker’s narrative is constructed through the use of primary source materials, secondary source materials, and oral history interviews. The research questions which guide this study include: 1) How did Baker use what Yosso described as “community cultural wealth” throughout her educational trajectory and time within the NYPL system? 2) Why was Baker’s bibliography on Black children’s books significant? and 3) What is her lasting legacy? This study uses historical research to elucidate how Baker successfully navigated within the predominantly White world of librarianship and established criteria for identifying non-stereotypical children’s literature about Blacks and Black experiences. ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Philippians 4:13 New Living Translation (NLT) ”For I can do everything through Christ,[a] who gives me strength.” I thank GOD who is my Everything.

  • Lincoln School Foundation
    Lincoln School Foundation Lincoln Journal – September 27, 2012 Children’s book author visits Hanscom “What do you like on your pizza?” Bryan Collier asked students at the Hanscom campus in June. The illustrator and author used a pizza analogy to encourage participation and help students understand the concept of putting different things together to make something new. He uses a variety of “ingredients” to make up his art, combining watercolors and collages to illustrate his books and to help make complex issues of social justice accessible to young people. Bryan has illustrated more than 25 books for skilled authors and poets, such as Doreen Rappaport, Langston Hughes, Nikki Grimes, and Nikki Giovanni. He has been awarded the Coretta Scott King Award, the Caldecott Honor Award, the Ezra Jack Keats New Illustrator Award, and The Jane Adams Children’s Book Award. His visit to the Hanscom campus was championed by Nancy Rote, Hanscom Library Media Specialist, and supported by a grant from the Lincoln School Foundation and from the District. Mr. Collier spoke first with students in grades 6 and 7. He engaged the students by reading from his books and having students act out poses of various characters. With the younger kids he stressed the importance of reading. “A good reader makes a good writer,” he told them. He shared his memories of reading The Snowy Day (by Ezra Jack Keats) and Harold and the Purple Crayon (by Crockett Johnson) as a boy and recalled that he liked the stories, but he really liked the pictures. He confessed to being more comfortable drawing and painting than writing, but with one book under his belt and another in the works, he is challenging himself to do more writing.
