Collection Development Top Picks: Picture Books

  You can see a more or less complete record of everything I purchased or added to the collection on this spreadsheet and a selection on our Pinterest page. This is a highlight of picture books I've added this year. I added a total of 596 picture books, 281 of which were backlist titles. 26 were added to our classics/favorites section, 137 to the animals neighborhood, 78 to the community neighborhood, 141 to the general/fun neighborhood, 27 to the things that go neighborhood, 53 to the nature neighborhood, 100 to the ourselves neighborhood, and 32 to the tales neighborhood. I haven't highlighted anything from the GO neighborhood, because, contrary to the generally accepted idea that there are a gazillion car/train books published each year, I find this is not the case and will basically buy pretty much anything.
