Website: dchooidoodles.blogspot.com Facebook: dchooidoodles Instagram: @dchooidoodles 8 Jack Remiel Cottrell (he/him) - Comic Writer - Currently Jack writes very short stories and wistfully gazes at pieces which would be better as comics, were he not completely incapable of drawing. He specialises in sneaking genre pieces into lit-fic circles (often in a trench-coat with a fake ID). Always looking for artists to collaborate with. Twitter: @sportingcryptid Instagram: @JackRemi ‘What’s in my pocket?’ and other riddles that have no good answers “Guys, have you seen my ring?” Henry’s voice always slides up the octaves when he gets upset, “I can’t find it!” He sits amongst the detritus of his kitbag, shaking it out. I turn to dig through my own gear, just in time to miss the stifled hiccup behind me. I fell in love with that hitch in his throat. Sit next to him for the exquisite agony of the smell of his soap powder and his sunscreen and him. But he doesn’t care about me. Not like I need. Not enough to bring a hitch to his breath. There’s only so much masochism I can take, rifling through my belongings looking for the ring that marks him as hers, that shows he loves her and not me. I zip up my bag, then gently put one hand around Henry’s shoulder as I head towards the door, leaning into him for a moment. The outside of my leg presses against his arm and I can feel him trembling, just a little. He pauses from where he is rechecking pockets that he already knows are empty. “It’ll be okay mate, it’s gotta be around here somewhere.” My thumb slides up his shoul- der to fleetingly brush his neck. “Thanks,” he gives me a watery smile, “I’ll see you tomorrow.” His voice sounds as hollow as I felt when I realised, he’d never care. As the door closes behind me, I slip my hand into my own pocket, trace the warm metal with one fingertip, feel the scratches that mark years of wear. It’s not enough, but it’s something. At least it’s something. 9 Ekkus (she/her) - Illustrator - Website: 66sukke.weebly.com Instagram: @eksekseksekseks 10 Amy Eye (she/her) - Comic Writer and Artist - Illustrator - Amy is a trans illustrator and occasional comic writer from New Zealand.

It’s ancient. It’s dead. Its twisted boughs throw writhing, tentacular shadows on the aged stone, but Calay isn’t scared of it. He grits his teeth into the rag that gags him, biding his time. As they haul him up onto a stool, some dignitary whose name he can’t remember bellows out his crimes.

  • Collection Development for Graphic Novels in Academic Libraries: Results of a National Survey
    University of Nebraska - Lincoln DigitalCommons@University of Nebraska - Lincoln Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal) Libraries at University of Nebraska-Lincoln 2020 Collection development for graphic novels in academic libraries: results of a national survey Stephen Finlay [email protected] Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/libphilprac Part of the Library and Information Science Commons Finlay, Stephen, "Collection development for graphic novels in academic libraries: results of a national survey" (2020). Library Philosophy and Practice (e-journal). 4669. https://digitalcommons.unl.edu/libphilprac/4669 Collection development for graphic novels in academic libraries: results of a national survey S. Craig Finlay Director, Murray State College Library Abstract A survey on collection development for graphic novels was sent to 632 collection development librarians and also placed on the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services listserv. Once 200 responses had been received analysis of results began. Findings indicate that while all libraries reported possessing at least some graphic novels and most reported having what they would call a “graphic novel collection,” the medium is still quite uncommon when compared to existing library collections, comprising less than 1% of all books in academic libraries. Further, while it was found that most libraries are currently collecting graphic novels, collection development policies for graphic novels are not the norm. Survey respondents were also asked to detail the current perceptions of graphic novels among the librarians in their institutions. Overall, the results detail an area of collection development in a state of change as graphic novels become more common in both university curricula and in academic library collections.
