The ALAN Review is a peer-reviewed, open-access journal published by the Assembly on Literature for Adolescents of the National Council of Teachers of English (ALAN). As explained on ALAN's official webpage, this journal is "devoted solely to the field of literature for young adults." Launched in 1994, this tri-annual journal is targeted toward writers and readers of young adult literature, including teachers and librarians. Virginia Tech's Digital Library and Archives hosts the e-journal's archives, providing full access to all issues of The ALAN Review once issues are two years old. In the Summer 2015 issue of this journal, readers will find an article about teaching graphic novels in secondary classrooms; a published conversation between acclaimed YA writers Jennifer Donnelly and Christopher Paul Curtis; and a review of the book A Cure for Dreaming. Folks interested in reading more recent material from The ALAN Review can find digitized versions of select current articles on the organization's website.
