[OYAN] 10 minute teen session at Free Online Conference looks good

[Katie Anderson]

Manor Ink: Library-based, Youth-led News
Peggy Johansen, Director, Livingston Manor Free Library (NY)

Manor Ink is a library-based, youth-led newspaper, in print and online at manorink.com<http://manorink.com/>. It was founded in the Livingston Manor Free Library (serving an upstate New York district of 3,483) in February of 2012. Manor Ink was born to provide teens with employment skills while giving the community a local news source. A core group of 15 young people ages 9 to 19 meet weekly in the library with dedicated adult mentors. In an era when local newspapers and small libraries are struggling, Manor Ink has brought vitality to both and an expression of hope to a careworn community.

This is the second 10 minute presentation in the lightening round which starts at 10am (Pacific Time) Thursday, February 26

This free one-day online conference is aimed at librarians from small libraries; the smaller the better. Each of our speakers will be from a small library or directly works with small libraries. Topics will range from technology (new tech and old tech) to programming to new roles for the library. Come for the programs on what you're dealing with now, or maybe try something new. Everyone is welcome to register and attend, regardless of how big or small their library is, but if your library serves a few thousand people, or a few hundred, this is the day for you.

*         I'm Gonna Make You Famous: Raising Awareness and Building Community on a Three-Inch Screen

*         A Community Working Together

*         Using Social Media in a Small Library
