A Children's Literature Roundtable (CLRT) is an assembly of enthusiasts who believe in quality literature for young people. A CLRT exists to share and discuss good books, to meet local, national, and international authors and illustrators for young people, to encourage Canadian talent, as well as to promote reading and publishing. CLRT was started by Ron Jobe and other librarians in Edmonton in 1977, and has become a national organization with active Children's Literature Roundtables all across Canada, from coast to coast. Current members include parents, teachers, teacher-librarians, public librarians, authors, illustrators, editors, professors, booksellers, publishers, and university students. Edmonton's Roundtable Executive meets once a year to plan the year's agenda. If you have ideas for possible CLRT presenters, please speak to a member of the Executive… or better yet join the Executive!
