Thanks to all who attended today!

 

It was a good discussion on how summer programming went, a glimpse at some great MeL resources from Laura Warren-Gross the new MeL Engagement Specialist, a conversation & activity on how we might grow  to meet community needs with programming, and we created a spreadsheet for in-library use on sharing any virtual and/or passive programming with each other to help support our work. Feel free to add to these spreadsheets – remember if you include a virtual program w/link information then other libraries can help cross-promote.

Finally, here’s today’s chatbox with many of the shares (I’ve added prompts that were asked of the group in the comments to help makes sense of the flow).

 

Looking forward to our next MiYouth, December 8th at 2pm.
