- Explore Our DataUse our unique and live data sets to gain valuable insights about the state of representation in the world of diverse children’s literature published and distributed in the US. Compare representation across racial and cultural groups or dive deeper and explore messaging through our nine (9) unique Central Theme Categories.
- Collection Analysis Tool (CAT)The CAT is a free online tool designed to help diversify children’s and young adult book collections in libraries and classrooms.
