Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

To discover how school libraries are dealing with the current explosion in the young adult graphic novel market along with the increased number of challenges that accompanies this soaring popularity, the authors conducted interviews with ten high school librarians in North Carolina, USA, where high schools serve students in 9th through 12th grades who are roughly 14-18 years of age. The researchers found that while librarians are creating special graphic novel collections in response to student demand, many of them are also working hard to avoid titles that might provoke criticism from the community.

Fetched live from OpenAlex and de-inverted. Abstracts are not stored in this database: the inverted indexes are 8.6 GB of the frame’s 9.3 GB of text, and the host has 13 GB free.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
