JuLit is a trade journal of the working group for youth literature and appears quarterly. It is aimed at everyone for whom the promotion and communication of children's and youth literature is a particular concern: individuals as well as institutions and professional associations. Each issue offers a thematic focus on trends and problems in contemporary children's and youth literature. Authors and illustrators are presented in portraits, outstanding books for children and young people are presented and relevant specialist literature is made accessible in reviews. Other focal points are international developments, the activities of the working group for youth literature and the field of literature communication. Once a year - always in issue 4 - the focus is on the German Youth Literature Award with its award winners and the award ceremony.
history
In 1975, 20 years after the working group for youth literature was founded, the first edition of “Informations” appeared with three editions per year. The last edition of a year was already dedicated to the German Youth Literature Prize. The association magazine steadily expanded into a specialist magazine. Since 1990 it has been published under the title "JuLit".
