[2][3] The Junior Library Guild is operated by Media Source Inc., which is based in Plain City, Ohio.
The position of editor-in-chief of the Junior Literary Guild has been held by only a few individuals over the years.
Ferris was a close associate of Eleanor Roosevelt, who served on the editorial board of the Junior Literary Guild[7] from 1929 through her death in 1962.
Roosevelt's involvement in the Guild was fairly active; for example, in a My Day column from 1938 she wrote, "One of the stories I thought interesting about these books was the fact related by the postmaster in a mining town — that two miners' families had often gone without food, but had never cancelled their subscriptions to the Junior Literary Guild books".
The Junior Literary Guild published a monthly magazine, Young Wings, from 1929 through 1955.
