NASA @ My Library Kits available again!
by Lancaster, Cathy (MDE) 04 Oct '21

04 Oct '21

It's a happy Monday that I get to share that the Library of Michigan's NASA @ My Library Kits<https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/0,9327,7-381-88855_89743_89748--…> are back in circulation for Michigan's public libraries! While these kits were built for in-person programming, you may also consider creating grab-and-go programming around the projects to serve at-home participants. TO RESERVE A KIT: 1) Reserve a kit via KitKeeper<https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/0,9327,7-381-88855_90022---,00.h…> 2) Schedule and advertise programs for the public during the period your library has reserved the kit. The kit projects and "unpacking" videos are all on our website at www.Mi.gov/NaML<http://www.Mi.gov/NaML> to help you prepare. 3) Return kit to the Library of Michigan on time so the next library can receive it for their programming and complete the required survey. For more information on the NASA@ My Library project in Michigan, please head to our website at www.Mi.gov/NaML<http://www.Mi.gov/NaML> or contact me. This program is supported in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Thank you, Cathy Lancaster Youth Services Coordinator Library of Michigan 702 W.
