All-New Youth Services Conference: Registration Now Open!
Services for youth (of all ages) are in a constant state of change from forces both within our libraries and outside the profession. The OLC is hosting an all-new conference later this summer for library staff who serve children and teens. Beyond Books & Programs: Changing Youth Services Conference will be held on Fri., Aug. 10 on the campus of Ohio University in Athens. While books and programming will always be a cornerstone of what we do, this conference will focus on the other aspects of library services for children and teens. You’ll take a closer look at how to best serve patrons from birth through high school and explore innovative ideas that you can implement at your library. The educational programming features a variety of breakout sessions in five tracks:
- Unique Populations
- Technology
- Intellectual Freedom and Collections
- Get Creative
- Marketing/Outreach
