Book Selection Committee

Helping young minds to grow

Children receive up to 60 carefully staged books that are hand-picked by a committee of academics, authors, Indigenous advisors, teachers and librarians ensuring they reflect the diversity of the wider community and include themes and concepts that support developing minds to grow.

The Book Selection Committee plays a vital role in the Imagination Library by reviewing a range of books supplied from our global and national partnerships with local and international publishers.
