Booklist fills their July issue with lots of awesome Graphic Novel content in anticipation of ComicCon. From my post about it earlier this month: 

Second, the July issue of Booklist is the annual Spotlight on Graphic Novels. This means two things. First there are these special articles:

Top 10 Manga for Adults and Older Teens
Essentials: Head over Heels for Heartstopper
Top 10 Manga for Children & Teens
Graphic Novels as Audio Adaptation

And second,  the issue includes Booklist's annual 2025 Guide to Graphic Novels in Libraries as a pull out in the print, and it is also free online here. 

So much great FREE content for you to help a wide range of your readers. Take advantage of all of it today.

July is when mainstream media covers comics and graphic novels the most, so take advantage and put up displays all over the library. Just don't forget that you need to pay attention to the format all year long.
