Teen Services Interest Group Meeting (7/30/20)

Meeting Information

Join your fellow Youth Services Librarians for a discussion on how they have met the challenges of programming for teens under quarantine. Participants may share their success stories as well as things that didn’t work, receive input from others, and brainstorm activities. This is a great opportunity to share ideas and resources.

The facilitator will also give a brief presentation on how some Libraries are using the popular new game Animal Crossing: New Horizons to connect with their teen and YA patrons.
