color:black'>Libraries play a unique role in afterschool—afterschool is
the common term for organized programs, activities or childcare provided for
youth in K-12<sup>th</sup> Grade. Library youth services staff are afterschool
providers, and are resources for other afterschool providers looking for
materials on child development, behavior management, planning activities, etc. You
are an afterschool provider if you conduct summer reading programs, facilitate
book clubs for kids, host youth gaming events, or run a teen advisory council! As
an afterschool provider you have access to a wider range of professional
development opportunities like the Oregon Afterschool Conference.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
