Hello, Michigan Librarians! Your library is invited to participate in the Summer 2022 MiLibraryQuest for teens. It is SUPER easy for a library to participate and we had 110 teens from across the state submit entries last summer. Following library closures in spring 2020 and a shift to virtual programming, a group of librarians from throughout the state began meeting to collaborate on virtual teen programming. We created MiLibraryQuest, a virtual scavenger hunt, for all teens throughout the state as a summer event. We have now offered four Quests with hundreds of teens participating. Our next Quest will be held this summer from June 15 through July 31. Sunday, May 1 is the deadline for libraries to sign up to participate: https://bit.ly/MiLibraryQuest2022SignUp The theme of MiLibraryQuest Summer 2022 is “Treasures of the Deep.” This Quest will challenge teen explorers to complete a crossword puzzle by finding clues on the websites of Michigan libraries. Answers to the puzzle will include famous pirates, real shipwrecks, and mythological monsters. Teens will enter to win a prize from their library after completing the crossword puzzle. All you have to do as a library is: - Place the MiLibraryQuest logo and a library-specific clue (which will be provided by the Quest team) on your website - Promote the event to your teens (Promotional materials will be available from the Quest team.) - Award at least one prize to a teen from your library who completes the Quest (The prize is up to you!)
