Diverse Communities, Diverse Collections. Look Inside for Collections on Women’s History, LGBTQA+, and More!
Dear Librarians, Here at hoopla, one of our core values is that everyone deserves to be heard and seen, regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexuality, or any other way a person may identify. Libraries and Librarians have always led the way by serving the diverse needs of their communities, and we are proud to provide a digital media collection that helps you fulfill that mission. Observances like Women’s History Month in March are great ways to celebrate diversity and elevate voices that have at times been silenced. Our media experts have put together collections that will help members of all ages explore and discover, whether for a student homework assignment or checking out and enjoying work by amazing artists and performers. Diversity is not just a sometimes thing—hoopla users can rest assured that they will always see themselves reflected in the media we offer. And, as well as the categories listed above, that means serving a diversity of interests. Whatever topic, format, or genre a member prefers, hoopla aims to truly offer something for everyone. We’ve put together this Look Book to highlight the diversity of hoopla’s offerings, in all senses of the word. We hope it helps you as you consider programming and outreach for your Library and your community. You can find more materials to promote and share your hoopla collection on our Resource Center: resources.hoopladigital.com. Thank you for everything you do, Jeff and the team at hoopla

Batman: Hush
by Jeph Loeb and Jim Lee Gotham City is infected by a crime epidemic and all of Batman's enemies have emerged to throw his life into utter chaos. But little do they know, they're all pawns of the villainous Hush in an elaborate game of revenge against Bruce Wayne. Pushed past his breaking point, Batman will need to use more than the world's greatest detective skills to uncover the true identity of this mysterious mastermind before it's too late. This truly unforgettable story by three of comics' top talents—writer Jeph Loeb (Batman: The Long Halloween, Batman: Dark Victory) and artists Jim Lee (Justice League, Suicide Squad) and Scott Williams (All-Star Batman & Robin, Superman)—presents the Caped Crusader's most personal case yet!
“It’s beautiful stuff.” -Publishers Weekly, Starred Review
