Our main presenter this year is Will Stuck, a youth services librarian and professional storyteller from St. Joseph, MO. Whether he is presenting workshop for various State Libraries, speaking at conferences, or just acting like a fool for laughs in front of children, Will’s passion for stories, books and libraries shines through.
The day will also feature a session, The Tween and Teen Universes, from Jennifer McCulley, a great librarian and Youth Services Coordinator at McPherson Public Library.
In addition, you will have an opportunity to talk to colleagues about one or two of the following topics:
- Nuts and Bolts of Running a Summer Library Program
- Adapting Programs for Various Age Groups and/or Families
- Serving Tweens and Teens During Summer and Beyond
Join us for a full day of learning, exploration and collaboration.
