Selecting Graphic Novels

Selection Policy Check your school / county selection development policy on including graphic novels in your collection. Determine why you want to include graphic novels in your collection. Update your selection policy before challenges may arise. Source: Mooney (2002 )

Criteria for Selecting Graphic Novels Appropriate content Visuals & Graphics Physical form & Aesthetics Reputation of author, seller, publisher, reviews Arrangement & Organization

Appropriate Content Are the story and illustrations appropriate for the intended audience? What is the scope? Are there any treatment issues? Are there any special features available? How does the graphic novel add value to your collection? Does the content pose any safety or health concerns for your students?

Visuals & Graphics Are students able to follow the art format? Does the novel have visual impact that showcases the artistic ability of the creator? Does the graphic novel blend text and art? Does the use of color add to the graphic novel or is it unnecessary?

Physical Form & Aesthetics How is the book designed physically? Does the book have aesthetic quality and is appealing to students? Is the book durable and will hold up to multiple users and high circulation?

Reputations of Author, Seller, Publisher, Reviews What are the reputations of the author, illustrator, and publisher? Are you able to locate a review of the title? Is the title one that will be popular with students? Is the book a part of a series? What is the cost of the book?

Arrangement & Organization Does the story have the best qualities of the literature genre (i.e. mystery, nonfiction, biography) it represents? How is the graphic novel arranged? Will students have trouble understanding the organization? (ex. does it read right to left instead of left to right?)
