SESSIONS
Library 2.0
What is Library 2.0 anyway and how can it make your life as a children's librarian easier? From your department's website to planning and advertising programming, Library 2.0 offers a more user-centered approach to library services. Find out only what you need to know about L2 without getting bogged down in the techie-talk and how exactly you can embrace it and put it to good use at your library! (will not be offered at Shaler)*

Great Books 2006--Beyond the Winner's Circle.
An inside look at books that will strengthen and broaden your collections for programming and child-centered book sharing.

Only a Few? Look what you can do!
Are you "flying solo" in your children's department? How do you balance collection developement, programming, summer reading, school visits and all the rest as only one person? Come and learn some helpful time-saving tips and ways to make your work life easier and more fulfilling all the while benefitting your youngest of patrons.

School-Age Programming Made Simple
Once a child outgrows preschool and kindergarten storytimes, what kinds of programming will keep them coming to the library? Walk way with ready-to-go programs for those in 1-5 grades.

CSI @ Your Library
A hands-on mystery for YOU to solve using actual investigative techniques. This teen-tested program is easly and cheaply duplicated in your library. We will give you all you need to host your own Crime Scene Investigation. This program can be easily adapted for younger children and/or families. You will leave this session with all you need to host your own night of intrigue.

Workshop registration and coffee will begin at 8:30 AM at each of the locations, with the first session beginning at 9:00 AM. Workshops will end at 3:00 PM.*
