[Michlib-l] CSLP seeking your summer library program stories!

[Lancaster, Cathy (MDE)]

The Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP) wants your stories!

CSLP is looking to capture stories of how public libraries have met the needs of youth and families in their communities during the last year or this summer.  These inspirational stories can be told through photos and a short narration or through a short video -- whatever works best for your library.  Please submit your videos or photos to inspire us all to CSLP by August 30, 2021 in this shared folder<https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Hp4Axi3O8kzb-f88Me71IcWcjoAbNAJa>.

Here are a few examples of inspirational stories, shared over the last few months by Janet Ingraham-Dwyer of Ohio, Chair of the CSLP Child and Community Well-being (CCWB) Committee:

  1.  This brief video is part of PLA's Libraries Transform series that they released about 5 years ago. It's just over a minute long and talks about so much of what we are supporting and encouraging about libraries and food insecurity!

We know your libraries have rallied in many ways through innovative programs, resources, partnerships, and services to meet families and youth where they are and provide what they need, whether it be a meal, a device, a connection to a community resource, or a friendly smile.  Let us celebrate all the ways that our public libraries have been there as a vital connection for the families of our communities.

Thank you,
