Just a little update of the conference! Currently, the conference will go ahead as planned on 11th and 12th September 2020. However, with the situation changing so rapidly, things may change. If there is any indication the conference needs to be rescheduled, we will let you know asap. For this reason, we have been a little slower in getting out information packs and registration fee. We are working on this and will have an update in the coming weeks. This decision is in line with the University’s policy (https://www.cam.ac.uk/coronavirus/18032020-urgent-update-from-the-vice-chancellor-on-the-coronavirus-outbreak) who currently anticipate that we will be out of the “red” phase and able to be open at the beginning of the next academic year.  Until then we ask you all to take very good care of yourselves & to know that we are a close academic family, so please reach out. You aren’t alone in this & we hope this will only make the Children’s Lit and YA community even stronger #YASexy #letstalkaboutsex #yalit #crclc #universityofcambridge @nichilton1 @gabrielduckels @_lisacam

Happy St Patrick’s Day! With everything feeling a little out of control at the moment, it’s good to know we have a place to escape to in a good book. Here are a selection of some wonderful Irish authors in our ever growing collection that can whisk you away! 🇮🇪 (thanks to @edfaclib for buying them and @nichilton1 for her irish author obsession) 🇮🇪 #bookstagram #childrensliterature #yalit #escapeinabook #irish #stpatricksday #crclc #universityofcambridge

Happy International Women’s Day to everyone out there! Here’s a selection of just some of the fabulous female authors that we love. With so many incredible women in the world, we want to say say thank you to you all for being who you are. And if you are feeling tired from just being your amazing selves why not take a little rest with a good book! #iwd2020 #iwd #childrensliterature #yalit #picturebooks #bookstagram #crclc #universityofcambridge #rockingthesystem

Seeing how positively the new edition has been received makes our day! We have past and present members of the centre included in this edition and we are so proud! Well done Morag Styles, @annapurkiss and @susansmtan 📚📚 Posted @withregram • @bookislandbooks Purchased the second edition of ‘Children’s Picturebooks | The Art of Visual Storytelling’ by @profmartinsalisbury and Morag Styles a while ago and have been sharing it with everyone who happens to pop in at Book Island. I’m so impressed with the new content including the interviews with fellow micro and studio publishers, student and professional case studies, …. This is a must-have for everyone who’s passionate about picture books: illustrators, printmakers, authors, publishers, academics, teachers, reviewers… 🧐 ‘Children’s Picturebooks’ features artwork by hundreds of illustrators. Can you spot anyone you know? Feel free to show them your love by tagging them in the comments! 👉 This book is available from any independent bookshop in the UK. ✍ Cover art by @BeatriceAlemagna @professormartinsalisbury #MoragStyles @LaurenceKingPub @cambridge_school_of_art #illustration #illustration #publishing #picturebooks #childrensbooks
