    More information on the Notable Graphic Novels Review: The primary objective of this list is to acknowledge and celebrate the craft of sequential art from the previous year by tapping into the experience and love of this medium from ARLIS/NA members. As a result, this annual publication can assist (art) library workers in improving their own institutional collections of graphic novels by providing summaries, critical evaluations, and informed recommendations.

    Cheers!
