ConnectedLibFEST
Registration is now open for ConnectedLibFEST, the first ever connected learning event specifically focused on small and rural libraries.  This virtual experience takes place on Wednesday and Thursday, March 15 and 16, from 1 PM to 5 PM Eastern. Each day brings together library staff, researchers, and community members to learn from and with each other about bringing Connected Learning to small and rural library settings. Small and rural libraries are already using the principles of connected learning in their work. They do this by building relationships with youth, community members, and stakeholders; fostering interests of teens through library services; and creating opportunities for academic and life success.

Attend either date above and bring your summer program ideas, no matter the age group to share at our virtual round tables. Participants are encouraged to bring at least one program idea to share with the group. Program ideas may or may not be related to the CSLP theme "All Together Now," and can be geared for any age, including teens & adults. We want to hear what your library is up to and what you're excited about! We will also have the opportunity to discover all of the exciting ways the Michigan Learning Channel (MLC) and PBS Kids can support engagement and learning in your community this summer. See a sampling of the MLC summer program resources, including specific All Together Now themed activities and resources, on-demand videos and hands-on activities from a variety of local, regional, and national educational partners, and ideas for in-person events and programming provided by the MLC engagement team.
Attendees of this round table will walk away with ideas and contacts to customize the summer program for your community. These virtual round tables will not be recorded.
