<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Krista! That is awesome news! So Exciting.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">State Library of Ohio does not host/coordinate library conferences, for the most part. We manage two leadership institutes (Library Leadership Ohio and ILEAD-USA). We lead or participate in occasional partnership CE events (e.g. upcoming
opioid crisis workshops for library staff across Ohio). And we support Take 5 through my time as planning team convener and through LSTA $, though Take 5 is not marketed as a SLO event.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">But speaking of Take 5, I do love the format of that event. <span style="font-family:Wingdings">
J</span> I think the last time you were able to attend was the Cincinnati event that you co-planned? It keeps evolving. Here is the program booklet from the 2017 Take 5:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="https://library.ohio.gov/documents/take-5-weve-going-program-booklet/">library.ohio.gov/documents/take-5-weve-going-program-booklet/</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">For others on YSCON: Take 5 is a one-day event for teen/youth services librarians, school librarians, and their allies who support and care about young people. This annual, grassroots-organized, Ohio-based event grew out of practitioners’
interest in collaboration and dialogue. Take 5 offers experiential learning, hands-on activities, small-group conversations, engagement with high-level issues/trends/realities, and the opportunity to meet and learn from allies in other fields (arts/museum,
advocacy, social welfare, writing, food, therapy dogs!, etc.). Details: <a href="https://library.ohio.gov/take5">
library.ohio.gov/take5</a>. LSTA funds cover speaker expenses, host site honorarium (Take 5 takes place at libraries and museums that do not charge us to use their space), and supplies/materials. Attendee registration fees cover all food/refreshments. It’s
an inexpensive event – our total budget has never been above $3200.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">More along the lines of what Krista’s planning, I think: the Ohio Library Council (equivalent of KPLA) hosts a youth services conference, roughly biennially, in late summer/early fall. It is a traditional format, one-day conference, with
a lunch keynote speaker and 4-5 sets of breakout sessions. There is not a vendor/trade show. Here is (very limited) info about the 2018 conference, coming up on August 10:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><a href="http://olc.org/blog/event/beyond-books-programs-changing-youth-services/">olc.org/blog/event/beyond-books-programs-changing-youth-services</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Attached is the agenda of the most recent OLC youth services conference, held in 2015 (I did say ROUGHLY biennially!).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Krista, when will the KDLA youth services conference take place? OLC rescheduled from Sept. to August to avoid proximity to the ALSC Institute.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Good luck & keep us posted!<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Good Afternoon All,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I received some happy news to end the week – I will receive funding to host a statewide youth services conference this fall!
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Due to impending circumstances <span style="font-family:Wingdings">
J</span> I need to get a move on with planning. That being said, agency-sponsored statewide conferences in the past have been exclusively focused on summer reading. However, I would like for the next event to be broader, encompassing all aspects of youth services
– with summer reading just being a piece of the pie.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I would greatly appreciate anyone willing to share formats of statewide conferences, including days/length of time (I’m leaning towards 2 days), as well as presentation tracks and breakdown of content/specializations by days. Also, if the
event was supported by LSTA funds, what did you charge for or spend funds on (for example, part of funding would go to secure a venue, but we typically have to charge to recover meal costs).<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for the inspiration, Hive Mind!<o:p></o:p></p>
