Hi there!

 

For those who work in public libraries, this free webinar may be of value to you. The webinar is called Fresh Food, Fresh Thinking: An Innovative Approach to Youth Development and Learning in Rural Communities and will take place on Wednesday, July 25 at 2 p.m. EDT. You’ll find the abstract below:

 

“What happens when you mix public library staff, high school students, architects, and STEM curriculum? You get project-based learning that leads to students designing a hybrid public library/farmer's market facility! Learn from speakers who have been immersed in a year-long IMLS National Leader Planning Grant, which has involved teaching students about human centered service design and exploring libraries and farms in field trips, and hear how this innovative project engaged teens along with community partners.”

All my best,

Amber
