<br>
Library staff realize the importance of getting involved in STEM education, but many have difficulty finding comprehensive information that will help them plan and successfully implement STEM direction in their organization. This book is designed to meet that
need. It is timely and relevant. <i>How to STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Education in Libraries
</i>is by and for libraries who are involved in contributing efforts into advancing these subjects. It is organized in 9 parts including funding, grant writing, community partnerships, outreach, research, and examples of specific programming activities. Authors
are drawn from the professional staffs of educational institutions, libraries, and non-profit organizations such as science museums. <br>
<br>
The book contains eight parts, each emphasizing a different aspect of how to succeed with STEM. Part 1 emphasizes how hands-on activities that are both fun and educational can be used to further STEM awareness. Parts 2 and 3 contain chapters on the uniting
of STEM with Information Literacy. Innovative collection development ideas are discussed in Part 4 and Part 5 focuses on research and publishing. Outreach is the theme of Part 6 and the programs described in these chapters offer an array of ways to connect
with students of all ages. The final section of <i>How to STEM: Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math Education in Libraries
</i>addresses the funding of these programs. <br>
<br>
Librarians of all types will be pleased to discover easy-to-implement suggestions for collaborative efforts, many rich and diverse programming ideas, strategies for improving reference services and library instruction to speakers of English as a second language,
marketing and promotional tips designed to welcome multicultural patrons into the library, and much more.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">An essential resource for intermediate, middle, and high school librarians that guides the planning, learning, and implementation of a school
library makerspace.<br>
<br>
The roles of school library media specialists and school libraries themselves are ever changing in response to the needs of the community and the evolution of human thinking, interaction, and learning processes. A school library makerspace can provide patrons
with a place for learning, doing, and creating. It offers a location for tackling inventions, fine arts, crafts, industrial technology, hobbies, e-textiles, foodcrafting, DIY couture, fabrication, upcycling, and STEM right in the middle of the information
gateway—the library. This book completely explains the makerspace concept and supplies real-world implementation guidance and inexpensive programming ideas that can be used as-is or adapted to suit a specific library or community's needs. Readers will be able
to hit the ground running to implement their own makerspace with practical project ideas they can put to use immediately.<br>
<br>
Features<br>
• Explains how to transform school libraries—always considered a destination for thinking and learning—to also be the place of doing, creating, and producing<br>
• Supplies practical guidance on makerspace design, safety, instruction, budget, mentoring, and more<br>
• Includes a "Think, Create, Share, and Grow" section with each makerspace activity that supplies learning and enrichment resources, guidance, and step-by-step how-to instructions<br>
• Provides appendixes of national and local events; of ideas and supplies for makerspace activities; and of maker communities and maker resources<br>
