Event Description
Join us for a day of learning as we hear from different libraries on how they are collaborating with their local schools.
Featured Speakers:
Emily Kimball, Children’s Services Manager, Sandusky Library.
Just Ask!: We will discuss creative ways that your library can collaborate with the schools in your area including outreach services, special events, and circulation ideas that are successful at Sandusky Library.
Sandi Thompson, Director, Puskarich Public Library
Sandi will talk about her library’s popular E-Pass program.
Want to increase the use of online materials with high school students? The Puskarich Public Library issued ePasses to students without active library cards with cooperation from their local school district. The program was so successful that the school district would like to expand it to additional grade levels and teachers this upcoming year. Get the tips and tricks on how this worked for their library!
Kelly Chapin, Youth Programming Librarian, Minerva Public Library
Kelly enjoys working with patrons of all ages but has a particular passion for young adult needs, programming and collection development. She will share general methods for working with the schools and specific programs including promotional outreach methods such as school announcements and summer reading promotion, Minerva Middle School Visits that incorporate book talks and off-site circulation, and Minerva Elementary School public Library Visits.
Lydia Gamble, Head of Children's Services Department and Christina Getrost, Teen Librarian: Stow-Munroe Falls Public Library
Lydia will discuss her collaborations with elementary age kids and Christina will discuss her two book clubs and other programs.
