Procedures

The TAYSHAS High School Reading List Committee coordinates activities associated with the TAYSHAS program, a reading incentive program designed for young adults in Texas, grades 9-12, who are encouraged to read books for pleasure from a selected reading list prepared by the TAYSHAS Committee. Due to the diversity of this age range, Texas librarians should purchase titles on this list according to their collection policies.

Collection Development Statement
The TAYSHAS Reading List is not designed to support any particular curriculum. Librarians are not required or expected to purchase every book on the list. Due to the diversity in age range and topics, librarians should follow their local collection development policies and guidelines when considering which titles to purchase for their library.
