Librarians take notice. One of the first shojo titles to take hold in the U.S. was Sailor Moon. It has been out of print for several years. The exciting news for fans of Sailor Moon and an opportunity to introduce a whole new generation to Sailor Moon is that Kodansha will be reprinting the title in September. Libraries can replace books that have been missing or fairly worn and for libraries that haven’t had them can pick them up to add to their manga collection.
