.GUIDELINES FOR EVALUATING MINORIIiii GROUP MATERIALS .
When utilizing the Guidelines for the Evaluation of Print and Non-Print Materials, the folloWhig,
'defines shald be used in assessing minority group materials.
fsi
A ' ' 1Ix..
1. Appropriate language. If dialect must be used, it should be faithful to the region of thestory. A heavy usp of words or expressions fraught with connotations of diirespect abdcontempt, is unsuitable.
2. Illustrations must be true to the people depicted, not caricatures or steretitypei,
3. Theme. Minority peoples should be portrayed in all aspects of life - in different living- situations, jobs, and professions.
4. Treatment of characters. Characters should emphasize that "they are people faced withthe universal problems of all mankind: earning a living, hating and loving, rejoicing and
grieving, experiencing successes and failures, learning to find Weir way through a complexworld of ideas and living with other people."
