Library & School Library Collaboration Toolkit developed by our AASL/ALSC/YALSA Interdivisional Committee. The toolkit was created in 2017, but some information may still be useful when considering public library and school library partnerships.

Remote Programming: E-Zine
2020 is a historical time in our lives and many teens have lots of feelings and opinions. An
E-Zine is an electronic literary magazine and is a perfect vehicle for teens to express themselves. It's also the perfect literacy program to host remotely. Check out the
Programming HQ for tips on how to get an
E-Zine started at your library. Do you have an amazing remote program that you would like to share?
Share it with your fellow colleagues on the HQ.
