YALSA has now published Teen Services Competencies for Library Staff to help current & future library staff serve teens better. Professional tools & free webinars (beginning March 2018) are also available on the YALSA website. These new competencies (here, at a glance) are important to the role library staff does play in preparing teens for college & careers, so please familiarize yourself and keep an eye out for additional messages from YALSA and/or myself on this topic.

Thank you,
