The days are getting shorter, the temperatures are dropping, but you’ve got summer reading on your mind —summer reading programs, that is. Librarians looking for guidance as they begin their annual summer reading program planning process won’t want to miss YALSA’s Dec. 16 webinar, Gear Up for Summer Reading, hosted by Shari Fesko, teen services librarian at the Southfield (Mich.) Public Library and VOYA programming columnist. The webinar will take place at 2 p.m. EST. Registration is now open at www.ala.org/yalsa/webinars.
Participants in the webinar will:
- Find out how they can best structure a successful summer reading program;
- Learn how to use themes and plan programs that range from performing arts to cooking, crafting or competitive events;
- Discover effective strategies for outreach, marketing and promotion.
Webinars cost $39 for individual YALSA members, $49 for all other individuals and $195 for groups (unlimited participants). Registration is open at www.ala.org/yalsa/webinars. Questions can be sent to Eve Gaus, YALSA’s program officer for continuing education, at egaus@ala.org or 1 (800) 545-2433, ext. 5293.
