 hard to know what to use and why. In this facilitated interactive discussion you'll learn about libraries providing services to youth using the ideas of maker spaces, hacker spaces, and connected learning. You'll gain skills in figuring out which services
 are best for your community and your library.  And, you'll know how to get buy-in for these services from colleagues, administration, and community members. You'll leave the session thinking, OMG this is awesome!</span><span style="font-size:10.0pt;font-family:"Tahoma","sans-serif""><u></u><u></u></span></p>
