Quest: Winter Quest!

Following library closures in the spring and a shift to virtual
programming, a group of librarians from throughout the state began meeting
to collaborate on virtual teen programming.  We created MI Library Quest, a
virtual scavenger hunt, for all teens throughout the state as a summer
event.


We're now getting ready to launch another Quest to be held this winter
(January 1 - February 14).


The Winter Quest will be a mystery for teens to solve by collecting
evidence from participating libraries' websites.


The premise is:  An anonymous tip has come in that a thief has announced
that they will steal an iconic Michigan landmark on Valentine's Day. We’re
recruiting teenage private detectives charged with stopping the heist!
Figure out what they’re stealing and who the thief is to prevent the crime and
be entered to win a prize. The challenge begins on January 1.


Details will be on www.mi.gov/MiLibraryQuest early next month.  That site
currently has our Summer Quest info.


Each participating library will:

   - place the MI Library Quest image and a library-specific clue (which
   will be given to them) on their website
   - promote the event to their teens (Promotional materials will be
   available from the Quest team.)
   - award at least one prize to a teen who is from your library and
   completes the Quest


You are also invited to join our meetings.  The next one is on Wednesday,
December 2 at 2:00 P.M.  If you'd like to join, please email us at mi
libraryquest at gmail.com for the Zoom link and password.



If your library would like to participate, please sign up here
