[Michlib-l] YA updates

[Lancaster, Catherine (MDE)]

Happy Friday,

*         Reimagined Library Services For and With Teens infographic<http://www.ala.org/yalsa/teens-first> is now available!  Be sure to take a look and ask: how do you reimagine your services for and with teens? How will you communicate with stakeholders in your community how libraries can put teens first?

*         YALSA has launched the new Teen Book Finder Database<http://booklists.yalsa.net/>, which is a one-stop shop for finding selected lists and award winners.  Users can search this free resource by award, list name, year, author, genre and more, as well as print customizable lists.  This new resource will replace the individual award and list web pages currently on YALSA's site that are not searchable and that are organized only by year.

*         STEM: Nasa has a "Modern Figures<https://www.nasa.gov/modernfigures>" page with resources, biographies, videos, and more related to the movie "Hidden Figures."  Don't forget 2019's CSLP summer reading theme will be space!

*         Teens are hungry in the summer, too.  Be sure to check out www.michigan.gov/sfsp<http://www.michigan.gov/sfsp> for details on how to offer cold or hot lunches at your library for students under 18.  You can also sign-up to be a snack provider. You shape how many days/weeks you offer throughout the summer!

Stay tuned for more YA updates from the Library of Michigan,
