Is the facilitator dead?
-
M. Àngels Francés Díez
Abstract
This article looks at the process behind the transformation of the traditional literary facilitator, or rather at the emergence of new agents in the system of reading recommendations in the public sphere, which are gaining more and more importance and occupying ground previously reserved to adult facilitators. This process stems from two major changes: on the one hand, the emergence of content in formats and platforms other than writing, with codes and varying degrees of involvement and collaboration; on the other hand, new forms of access to children’s and young adults’ literature, which in the case of digital natives are to be found on the Internet and social networks.
