curious to see what it’s all about, here is the link to our guide and agenda: <a href="http://guides.masslibsystem.org/youthservices/ts">
http://guides.masslibsystem.org/youthservices/ts</a> It’s a year-long labor of love, jointly planned by the MA and RI youth service consultants. I’m sure Danielle will be able to share lots of info in Louisville :)<o:p></o:p></span></p>

be at the Symposium and I really hope I’ll get a chance to meet a few of you then!

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Thank you Tessa for these monthly updates and invitations. I want to share that the Ohio Library Council convention took place last week (this is our state library conference for
public librarians/library staff). It was exceptional. Strong, thoughtful sessions, and even better conversations in the hallways. And we had a lovely reception at the amazing brand-new Dayton Metro Library’s main library (<a href="http://www.daytonmetrolibrary.org/locations/main" target="_blank">www.daytonmetrolibrary.org/locations/main</a>).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">I think part of what made this event so powerful, sadly, was that it took place at a time when we are all feeling burdened and troubled, on our patrons’ behalf and our own. I had
signed up, months ago, to present one of a handful of brief talks on hot topics/timely issues. Speakers choose topics of interest to them, which this year included screen time, the love/hate relationship with SRP, a critique of “neutrality”, reliability and
government information, and more. They are sort-of modeled after TED talks, but no A/V and you can read from your scripted remarks, which I did, and not without fighting back tears a little. The topic I’d chosen was empathy and its importance as a professional
asset. It seemed even more relevant now than back in the winter when I’d submitted my proposal. People are in such dire need of connection and acknowledgement, and we serve our communities better when we truly take into account the realities of everyone in
the community. I was humbled both by being able to talk to a big roomful of peers about something like this, and by the tremendous response.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto">Also I want to share Teen Think Tank, an excellent informal/grassroots CE event developed and presented 2x/year by a team of Ohio teen librarians. They just completed their 9<sup>th</sup>
one-day workshop, and also recently topped 1000 Facebook followers. The Teen Think Tank organizers have had a bit of in-kind support from one of the Ohio regional library systems, and from State Library, and of course the support of their employers and hosting
libraries. But effectively they have accomplished all this awesomeness on their own, and with a budget of nothing but the $15/person (includes lunch) registration fee. Check out Teen Think Tank here:
