Children's Services Interest Group Meeting (1/24/20)

Meeting Information

Join your children's services colleagues for a day of learning, sharing, and fun!

The first meeting of 2020 will be held on Friday, January 24th, at the Suwannee River Regional Library in Live Oak.

For this meeting, we will focus on Sensory Bins and the positive effects that they have for early science learning, Social Emotional Learning, and developing motor skills. Come ready to share your successes, ideas, and questions!

As an added bonus, the folks at Suwannee River will have just hosted their Edgar Allan Poe Escape Room and they'll be making it available to us - if you've considered hosting an escape room, but you haven't pulled it off quite yet, this is your chance to ask questions and see firsthand how one works.

Interest Group Facilitator: Misty Dubose

I started out working in the Library System in 2002 at the Union County Public Library under Mary Brown. That is where I was able to really allow my imagination to grow. I went on to help write the CSLP Manual in 2004. Under unforeseen circumstances, I left the Library, but I continued working with and educating children and those that were incarcerated. Then I went back to the Library in 2011 at the Bradford County Public Library until the present day under Robert Perone, where I am currently the Youth Services Coordinator over the Children's Department. I am able to continue with old and new innovations on promoting reading to all those in Bradford County. Things I love about my job are my kiddos and their families and being able to have a personal and lasting impact on my kids and the community.

When I am not at work I love spending time my daughter. My other hobbies are reading and watching shows like the Game of Thrones. I am very crafty so I love to build/make things out of cardboard.
