From the article:

After years of expanding education, Miami [OH] University’s Children’s Picture Book Database has expanded as well, receiving more than 1 million hits.

Valerie Ubbes, director of the project, said she created the database in 1995 to expand education for children in preschool through third grade.

“The picture books equal life,” Ubbes said. “It’s all about expanding health into wellness.”

The database, which holds more than 5,000 children’s picture book abstracts, has partnered with Miami University Libraries, making it more accessible to all 50 states and foreign countries, Ubbes said.
