<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#1F497D">The past few weeks have been busier than usual because I have a new boss (Ellen Riordan, former ALSC President) and a new staff member after two other staff folks resigned in August. But we are going to meet
on Tuesday! I just need the weekend to get my thoughts together for the Summer Learning/Library Programs discussion. I want to focus on special/lized programs within the larger context of summer learning. For instance, DCPL does a one-week Science in the Summer
Program at select branches throughout the summer and has a Maker Month period during July in addition to all the usual stuff for the summer. By Monday, I will send an agenda and some information to consider.

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello YSCON Folks,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I hope this message finds everyone well and enjoying the seasonal changes. This message is a monthly reminder to reach out and touch someone. Or just share some news or questions from your corner of the world.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">According to our schedule, Carmen from DC will be hosting our monthly online meeting on October 17<sup>th</sup> on the topic of Summer Learning/Library Programs. Jasmine, let us know if you are still willing/able to host November’s meeting.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Speaking of November, many of us are scheduled to meet in Louisville as part of the YALSA forum. Looking at the great
<a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jduzMIgvGnqudXMHrdn7--DDA8G4fxDWWMBEyBj5fBw/edit?usp=sharing">
info that Janet put together</a>, we have almost 24 people who are open to dinner on Sunday evening. I looked into it, and I couldn’t find a restaurant within walking distance that would take such a large group. Therefore, I am wondering if we should split
the group and look for 2 restaurants that could host 12 each or 3 that could host 8.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please let me know if you have an opinion and/or what time we should try to make reservations for—maybe 7pm?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Wishing you a great rest of the week,<o:p></o:p></p>
