[Libs-Or] Virtual Town Hall on Teens, Libraries and Partnerships

[Katie Anderson]

Posted on behalf of ALA's Young Adult Library Services Association:


As part of its year-long project, the National Forum on Libraries and Teens, YALSA is hosting a series of Virtual Town Halls, and we'd like you to participate!  Mark your calendar for March 19 from 2-3pm, eastern, for the first one, which will focus on partnerships.  Anyone interested in participating in this discussion/exploration is welcome to attend.  To learn more, or to access the link to the Town Hall, please visit www.ala.org/yaforum<http://www.ala.org/yaforum>.  Please feel free to pass this information along to colleagues who may also be interested.

The National Forum on Libraries and Teens seeks to bring together key stakeholders from the areas of education, technology, adolescent development, research, out-of-school time, connected learning, libraries and the for-profit and nonprofit sectors to explore the world of young adults and library services to this population, and ultimately produce a report which will provide direction on how libraries need to adapt to better meet the needs of 21st century teens.  Grant funding is generously provided by the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

If you have any questions, or if you'd like further information, please contact:
