GroupsCollege Students, For Parents: Raising Readers, Teachers

About meI am an academic reference librarian and professor of Information Literacy courses. I have my own LT account (annabethblue), as well. I created this list as a resource for students who ask for a list like this. I believe that everyone has their own tastes in reading, and not all books are for all people, but the books represented in these lists are accepted as important books for college bound students to have experienced.

About my libraryThe books in this library are books that are featured on various book lists for college bound students. In the tags, I've included which list it came from (many books are featured on many or all the lists). The following are the URL's for the original lists, if you'd like to check those out. Enjoy!

TAG: COLLEGEBOARD - http://www.collegeboard.com/student/plan...

TAG: ARROWHEAD - http://als.lib.wi.us/Collegebound.html (I have only included the American Lit, World Lit, Drama, and Poetry sections so far)

TAG: POWAY - http://powayusd.sdcoe.k12.ca.us/pusdphs/... (This is a list from a high school....it's got some odd choices on it, but I decided to include them. It's really up to you, in the end!)

More may be added later! Let me know if you know of any other great book lists for college bound students.

**I've also included tags for the subjects of the books, as well tags that indicate if the book is fiction, or a biography, etc.

One thing to notice, some books are on many lists. Look at the tags for each book and if you see more than one 'list' tag (the all-caps tags above) then those books are probably pretty good books to read. :)
