Mindfulness: Kind Mind<https://libraryofmichigan.z2systems.com/np/clients/libraryofmichigan/event.jsp?event=378> - MSU Extension
Monday, April 12, 2021
1:30-3:30 p.m. ET
Mindfulness gives us the ability to observe our thoughts from an outside perspective. Develop your "detached observer" to put some distance between you and the drama in your mind. This lesson will focus on using mindfulness to help you learn to pay mindful attention to your thoughts, learn the importance of self-compassion, how to "de-fuse" harsh thinking and harness the power of acceptance and gratitude to relieve stress.

Tuesday, April 20, 2021
2:00 PM - 3:00 PM ET
We know that there is a strong literacy connection between speaking, reading and writing. Every storytime should include pre-writing or writing activities to support language and literacy skills in our young patrons but, it is often the hardest element to include. Storytelling and Literacy Coach, Jenifer Strauss will share a process for providing engaging writing activities in your storytime plans to enrich your programs and provide parents with ways to extend the language experience when they get home. This project is made possible by grant funds from the U.S. Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) administered by the State of Michigan through the Library of Michigan.

Back by popular demand! Two-Hour Remote Interactive Presentation with Pam Victor, President, Happier Valley Comedy. We ask you attend live!
Shhhhh! Don't tell anyone this secret: In this remote interactive presentation, professional improviser Pam Victor shares the exclusive collaboration superpower that allows improvisers to create comedy out of thin air, so you can use these trade secrets for building stronger collaboration, communication, and resilience at work. This presentation provides easily applicable techniques for quieting the inner critic to build more confidence and adaptability. You'll receive fun, hands-on experience with why we overuse "no" to restrict progress, and how we can get to a "yes" mindset in order to move forward together with more positivity and creativity. Through humorous stories and impactful exercises, you learn how to use improv superpowers to improve brainstorming, flexibility with change, team empowerment, and creative problem solving. Participants also receive links to instructional demonstrations of improv games to play online or in-person with young patrons, families, and friends.
Register with your co-workers for improved collaboration and program development.

PCI Webinars
May 26, 2021
2:00 - 3:30 PM ET
This interactive and informative 90-minute webinar will introduce emerging practices, fundamental methods, and knowledge to empower library staff to:
* incorporate children, youth, and family programming during the COVID-19 pandemic challenge,
* design, implement, and assess programs, including the use of take-home kits,
* reinvent their role with customers,
* strengthen collaborations among peers and community partners,
* help make the library a magnet drawing people into a realm to elevate an individual's capacity for learning, discovering excellence, and contributing to life no matter the challenge.
An emphasis will be placed on virtual programming, however, examples of all program types - virtual, outdoor, in-person, and hybrid (in-person and virtual) - will be used for all sizes of libraries, budgets, and ambition.
