Teen Services Interest Group (4/26/18)

How do we get teens to read, come to the library, or even do their homework?  Join the Teen Services Interest Group so we can all share our ideas, programs, book thoughts, etc., to make this happen together. 

The first meeting of 2018 will take place online on Thursday, April 26th, from 10:00 - 11:00 am.  We will have a discussion about how to kick off this new group so that it is useful and convenient.  We look forward to seeing you there!

Your Facilitator Is:  Robyn Doppke, City College, Gainesville Campus

I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of West Florida, a Minor in Art, and Master's Degree in Library and Information Studies from Florida State University.  I have been a high school librarian and a college librarian most of my career.  Currently, I am branch librarian for City College, Gainesville.  I am an avid reader. I am also an artist, and if you would like to see my work, come visit me at Melrose Marketplace on Friday evenings.  As a librarian, it is all about the "aha" moments I get from those patrons/students who get it., whether that be a research moment or from a book that just caught them off guard.  One of the best times I have had as a librarian was when I lived in Beijing, China, as an International Librarian.  It was a wonderful experience to share my love of reading, research, etc., with another culture of people.
