Thanks to Channel Weekly for alerting me to these excellent, free continuing education opportunities!
1. CCBC Shorts
Are you working on your book tie-ins for this summer’s “Dream Big, Read” and “Own the Night” children’s and teen library program themes? Don’t be in the dark! Cooperative Children’s Book Center Librarians (CCBC) Megan Schliesman and Merri Lindgren put the spotlight on great books to use with readers ages 0-18. You can watch the archived 30 minute webinar.
*On a related note: For the Summer Library Program workshop a few weeks ago, I put together a book list of titles related to the theme that have received starred reviews in the past 10-12 months.
