So many cool things are on the horizon at the State Library! I'm excited for 2024 - and I hope you are too!

Please join us for the upcoming POP YS Con in April (and submit a proposal, too!) as well as attend the All Iowa Reads events, POP YS Live webinars, and Check It Outs! I hope you have a fabulous and fun 2024 - and please let me know how can I be of service to you!

"Just in Time" Summer Reading Planning Virtual Training

If you missed the November virtual training, join us for the "Just in Time" Summer Reading Virtual Training Thursday, February 1 from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 a.m.

Janeé will guide participants through the best practices, activities, ideas and resources for youth ages 0-18. Come share ideas with other youth librarians in breakout rooms, and get inspired to Read, Renew, and Repeat in 2024! The first part of the session will be a presentation from Janeé, the second part will be spent in breakout rooms. Feel free to bring items you used last summer to share with others!
