LibraryPass is excited to be exhibiting at AASL 2023 (Tampa Bay, FL) for the first time! In addition to demos of Comics Plus and hosting a session on dealing with book challenges, we’re also bringing along a small library featuring some of our favorite publishers’ comics and manga that we’ll be giving away to one lucky school librarian at the end of the show!
Comics and manga are important for supporting independent reading but can also be effective tools for improving literacy, language learning, and reading for pleasure across a broad audience. With increasing availability of classroom-appropriate titles addressing a variety of educational subjects, educators should work with their librarian partners to include comics and manga in their lesson plans.
LibraryPass welcomes the innovative imprint to Comics Plus, offering libraries and schools unlimited simultaneous access.
From mature takes on the superhero stories they may have grown up with, to other popular genres like horror, historical and literary fiction, or memoir — older readers can read all the comics, too!
A panel discussion featuring representatives from Image Comics, Silver Sprocket, and Yen Press spotlighting some of their favorite comics for older readers. They’ll also offer tips on recommending readalikes to non-comics readers based on their favorites in other media, and downloadable title lists to make it easy to add them to your own collections.
We curate high-interest, immersive digital content that helps schools and libraries expand and diversify their collections—without breaking their materials budgets.
Give your readers unlimited, simultaneous access to a diverse collection of digital comics, graphic novels, and manga from dozens of library-friendly publishers.
