Designing a children's digital library with and for children

This paper describes preliminary work carried out to design a children’s digital library of stories and poems with and for children aged 11-14 years old. We describe our experience in engaging children as design partners, and propose a digital library environment and design features to provide an engaging, successful learning experience for children using it for collaborative writing.
