The top 10 neighbors for School Library Journal span education organizations, book publishers, authors, and lifestyle retail — no single cluster dominates, which is the defining structural fact of a broad shape.
TED-Ed is the strongest pull at 0.89, followed by EdSurge (0.85) and Daniel Pink (0.85). HarperKids (0.83) and Education Week (0.82) round out the top five. Tallying subcategories across all ten: three are Authors (Daniel Pink, Simon Sinek, Glennon Doyle), two are Education organizations (TED-Ed, and Edutopia at 0.77), two are Book Publishers (HarperKids and Random House Kids at 0.79), and the remaining three are a Website (EdSurge), a Magazine (Education Week), and a Motivational account (Dan Rockwell at 0.80). School Library Journal is itself a Magazine, and Education Week is the only other Magazine in the top 10 — meaning the audience shape is defined less by peer publications than by education-adjacent authors, children's book publishers, and ed-tech organizations. The cross-kind pattern is notable: authors like Simon Sinek (0.82) and Glennon Doyle (0.80) sit alongside children's imprints and classroom-focused nonprofits, suggesting the audience bridges professional development reading and K–12 institutional content.
The broad shape here reflects an audience that moves fluidly across education media, publishing, and thought-leadership — not one anchored to a single content type.
