Do you subscribe to library professional reading journals at your school library ?
These valuable resources keep you up to date with new authors, titles, series, award winners... inspire you with interviews and articles... provide booklists, reports on events, and suggest ways to promote reading etc. They are a valuable tool for helping teachers increase their knowledge of children's literature, as well as obviously informing your book buying / collection development for the school library.
I'd recommend Magpies and Around the Bookshops especially, and also The Literature Base for for suggested classroom activities based on themes / genres / individual titles...
