Somebody involved with literature for children in another country asked on
a discussion group for a list of organizations that might provide support
and consultation to arrest the decline this person perceives of literature
for children in their country.  The list of resources that I suggested to
this person may be of interest to the members of this list.

-----------------
It is impossible to know which organization(s) will take an interest in
this problem and prove helpful.  One must try and at least hope for a
referal if the organization contacted cannot or will not help.  Here are
some organizations to consider approaching for advice, guidance or
assitance with the problem that you pose.
