Engaging Youth On Their Own Terms: IM and Gaming in Libraries
Engaging Youth On Their Own Terms: IM and Gaming in Libraries
SirsiDynix Web Seminar
Tuesday, October 10, 8am Pacific Time
"Attempting to mold young library users into miniature librarians is an unfair and often futile goal. To meet their needs and ensure our institutions are supported in the future, we must listen to them! Join Aaron Schmidt and Sarah Houghton as they discuss ways to serve teens on their own turf, by creating a teen-friendly environment in your physical library and in your library's eBranch, and by providing the resources and services teens want, when and where they want them. Other topics discussed will be MySpace, iPods, and weblogs."
Cost: Free, like usual
Sarah and Aaron are unbelievable innovators and great speakers - don't miss this one. If you can't then check out the archived version on the SirsiDynix Institute's web site.
