We invite SJRLC librarians who serve teens from both school (middle and high) and public libraries as well as administrators who fund these services to join us for a great program, networking lunch and planning session on services to teens in the Region.  (Librarians from other Regions can register on a space-available basis)

We are pleased to announce that Alice Yucht will Keynote!
The new 3 R's:   Digital Literacy Skills for 21st century Learners.

The Read/Write Web has changed the way our kids consume and create information. Let's explore the critical skills they will need in order to be effective and ethical citizens in the new information economy.

Alice Yucht has been an educator for over 40 years, as a teacher, public and school librarian, curriculum consultant, conference planner, professional development provider, writer, editor, life coach, and stand-up comic.  Now retired from full-time work in the trenches, she teaches online courses, mentors new school librarians and teachers, and gets to read anything she wants, whenever she wants.

Other topics and speakers are being finalized. 
We promise you a day of engagement, sharing, and inspiration!

  3. Share your accomplishments!  If you've collaborated with your school/public library counterpart on programs or services, you'll have an opportunity to share your success stories.
