The 2012 Consideration List of current titles which have been nominated by the TAYSHAS High School Reading List Committee (THSRL). The THSRL is a recommended reading list developed by public and school librarians from the Young Adult Round Table (YART).
The purpose of the list is to encourage students in grades 9-12 to explore a variety of current books. Due to the diversity of this age range, Librarians should consider their appropriate collection policies when purchasing titles on this list. Each nominated book has been favorably reviewed for grades 9-12 in a professional review source.
You can view the current 2012 list and previous lists on the Tayshas Reading Lists web site.
