digital launch

Who Built That? Bridges by Didier Cornille (Princeton Architectural Press, 2016), a 2017 OIB
​
Welcome to the new, digital version of the USBBY newsletter, a quarterly aggregate of USBBY/IBBY activities, previews, info, and opportunities to get involved! 

With this shift from paper to a digital format, we aim to update, inform and inspire our members and readers more frequently throughout the year. The digital platform allows us to put out calls for participation on committees, share activities from members and partners, provide conference and session reminders, and more - all in real time! Moreover, the digital platform makes our news more immediately accessible to potential members who visit our website. It will show members, potential or new to or lapsed from USBBY, the ongoing efforts and unique value of our organization.

In this inaugural issue you will find information on our New Retail Partnerships, Highlights from International Children’s Book Day, Reflections from Bologna, a wonderful guest post, and enticing information about our biennial Regional conference.

In future issues and intermittent blog posts you will find updates on awards, committee activities, news from organizational partners, invitations to serve, and more guest posts from authors, illustrators, translators, and editors.

Look for the next issue on August 1.

​Happy reading!
