The panel proposal will collect papers that explore novel approaches to expanding access to juvenile titles (fiction, non-fiction, games, videos, etc) in languages that are underserved in educational settings, but are the mother languages of young learners. The panel could be comprised of people from a variety of regions and may include scholars of education, literacy, language policy, language preservation, sustainable technology, etc. The details of the panel will reflect the ways that the individual paper submissions complement each other.
