Have you been thinking about creating some changes to better meet the needs of your community during your annual summer vacation SLP's? If you've been dreaming or even just want to explore a bit of what's out there, we have a class for you!

Join veteran youth librarian Sue Abrahamson and me for a bracing 4-week online exploration of that most sacred of all cows in youth services - the annual summer library program. We'll look at how SLP's evolved, why we do we what we do; and ideas on how to introduce and sustain change, adaptations, new paradigms and fun into your summer work with the community.

Offered through the UW-Madison iSchool Department of Continuing Education, this asynchronous course (you pop in each week at a time most convenient for you) course offers short lectures, thought-provoking readings and resources, videos and a wonderful forum for you and your peers to share successes, tears, fears and thoughts. This crowd-sourced part of the course lets you share YOUR expertise and experience as well as gain valuable support for your ideas from peers.

Hope you can join us January 28-February 24. You can get all the details here!
