Includes bibliographical references (pages 111-112) and indexLibrarianship for babies : from problems to potential -- Physical needs : attending to babies and families -- Emotional expressions : the unfolding emotional lives of families -- Intellectual pursuits : learning for babies and families -- Social development : communing with babies and families -- The potential of librarianship for babies and families -- Appendix. IFLA guidelines for library services to babies and toddlers"Public libraries across the nation continue to transform themselves into learning centers for infants, toddlers, and preschoolers. There are many resources available to help librarians create baby-friendly play spaces and enhanced storytimes, but until now there has been gap in the literature addressing the developmental needs and changing behaviors of babies and toddlers. Parents and caregivers can also present unique service challenges. Focusing squarely on the how of providing quality library service to babies and families, Knolls new book provides sensible, sensitive advice on meeting their physical, emotional, intellectual, and social needs. Geared towards helping public libraries foster healthy growth and development for their littlest patrons, this book: explores multiple aspects in the developing life of a baby, discussing physical needs, emotional expressions, intellectual pursuits, and social development; highlights real-life examples from public libraries that relate to how these developmental processes present themselves while babies and families interact in the library; presents Baby Steps for each topical area, providing service tips and suggestions that can be easily or inexpensively put into practice; offers Big Steps, conversational points that invite librarians to think creatively about further investment, support, funding, and collaborative efforts; and includes carefully selected research findings and other information that can be used for planning, policymaking, and advocacy. With Knolls guidance, childrens librarians will be informed and inspired to rise to the challenge of providing quality service to babies, toddlers, and care providers"--Publisher's website

"Help make errand time a fun, cooperative time. Get ready, get set, go get into coats . . . out the door . . . into the car. With On-the-Go Time/¡A salir!, shopping and running errands with children really can mean fewer hassles and more fun for everyone! Toddlers learn simple tools and encouragement to keep moving, cope with the changing scenes, and be super helpers in the car, at the store or library, and on the road. What do toddlers do when they're on-the-go? Listen, follow along, and even lend a hand. If they're struggling with transition times or feeling disappointed or overstimulated along the way, they can take deep breaths to calm down. At the back of the book, a section for parents and caregivers has tips in English and Spanish for reinforcing the book's message."--
