Event Description

We're hosting a lively workshop to jointly develop ideas for the 2026 teen summer reading theme, "Unearth a Story."

Your day kicks off with a lively game of Trivia, featuring sample questions and themes you can adapt for your own programs. Followed by the popular presentation given by Janet Ingraham Dwyer of the State Library discussing the CSLP theme, Unearth a Story, and the extensive resources offered. Next, you will have dedicated time to connect with colleagues, sharing and developing innovative ideas for programs, incentives, and reading tracking methods. Before lunch you will have the opportunity to create cardboard stand-ups.

After lunch we will have our program palooza where you will have an opportunity to hear 6 different programs you can implement in your own library.  We will wrap up the day with a high-energy session focused on 25 programs under $25!   Don't miss this action-packed day and opportunity to connect with your peers. More details will be coming soon.
