by Jim Flury 18 May '17

18 May '17

All, I am pleased to welcome Marquette Maritime Museum http://mqtmaritimemuseum.com/ as the newest partner destination in the Michigan Activity Pass program. MMM has as its President of its Board of Directors renowned Great Lakes historian and author Fred Stonehouse http://frederickstonehouse.com/ I have inquired of Fred as to whether he wishes to make himself available to do programs in Michigan public libraries. Great Lakes shipwrecks, of which topic Fred is the world's foremost expert, are a popular topic when presented as programs in Michigan public libraries. I will let you know if Fred is able to take time out of his busy schedule to do public library presentations. Welcome, Marquette Maritime Museum to the Michigan Activity Pass program! Thank you for your promotion and support of MAP. Sincerely, Jim Flury Jim Flury Technical Services Manager The Library Network 41365 Vincenti Court Novi, MI 48375 248-536-3100 x133 Fax 248-536-3098 jflury(a)tln.lib.mi.us

FW: UMD Launches Youth Experience Certificate Program
by Lancaster, Catherine (MDE) 18 May '17

18 May '17

FYI Can you imagine a library where elementary school children learn how to use geo-location tools to make street maps from stories in their favorite books? Where teens in an after-school program create the coding for a website about local history? Or where a preschool playgroup learns the building blocks of problem solving by partnering with community recycling programs to tackle a sustainability project? The University of Maryland College of Information Studies is making this vision of advanced library programming possible through the online Graduate Certificate of Professional Studies in Youth Experience (YX). This certificate program is made possible by generous funding from the Institute of Museum and Library Services<https://www.imls.gov/>. Library and information science professionals participating in this one-year program receive training to: · Facilitate youth learning with technology in both formal and informal environments · Leverage simple to advanced technology to meet the community’s needs · Engage youth in co-designing, executing, and evaluating programming in and via libraries · Develop community resources and partnerships to advance youth learning opportunities · Implement best practices to be inclusive of all youth’s needs, in particular youth from disadvantaged populations We are proud to announce that the first cohort<http://yx.umd.edu/2017-2018-cohort/> of YX librarians will begin May 2017. These 14 future library and information leaders will be equipped to become advocates of youth development and innovators of library and youth programming. Visit us online<http://yx.umd.edu/> to follow the adventures of the first cohort, learn more, or apply for next year’s program.
