'''''Young Adult Library Services''''' ({{ISSN|1541-4302}}) is a quarterly [[magazine]] published by the [[Young Adult Library Services Association]] (YALSA). It supersedes the ''Journal of Youth Services'', which was published together with the [[Association for Library Service to Children]] until 2002. The magazine serves as a mode of continuing education for librarians working with young adult populations (ages 12–18). The content of the magazine includes current news in the field, showcasing the best practices, providing news from related fields, spotlighting significant events of YALSA, and providing in depth reviews of professional literature. The fall issue contains award announcements, speeches by award-winning authors, and background information on books. The journal publishes articles about teen habits, literacy, and interests. Additionally, it serves as mode of communication for members of the association and as a record for the organization.<ref name="YALS">[http://www.ala.org/yalsa/young-adult-library-services Young Adult Library Services]</ref>
