Pre-Conference Workshop Well Received

Several NFLS librarians attended the SLP Workshop last Tuesday, October 16 at the Bay Beach Wildlife Sanctuary. I was lucky enough to be able to attend some of the sessions myself, and they were great! Here are some comments from participants.:

It was GREAT!  Fired us all up & gave us a "headstart" for picking things up between now & summer.  Teen ideas (LaCrosse presenter), Georgia Jones' preschool ideas & Patti Sinclair's session were my favorites.

My co-worker, Brianna, and I enjoyed the break-out sessions we went to.  We found the Teen session very informative with many good ideas.  Since we don't have a separate teen area (yet), we were excited to glean information, so hopefully we will be able to implement one in the near future.

The workshop was fabulous!  I really thought it neat that we were given the handouts for all of the sessions at the time of check in.  That way if you couldn't get to something that you really wanted to go to, you still had the information.  There were some really neat ideas in the display area and a couple of the programs that had enough info to plan an entire summer - without even having the manual!
