Take Action for a Sustainable World!
STAR Net Partners with ALA and NASA for the April 2020
Our Planet: EARTH Campaign
In January 2019, the American Library Association<https://t.e2ma.net/click/actmbd/6094u8/2pid1s> (ALA) on behalf of its members adopted “sustainability” as a core value of librarianship. To be truly sustainable, a community must embody practices that are environmentally sound AND economically feasible AND socially equitable.
Our Planet: EARTH<https://t.e2ma.net/click/actmbd/6094u8/iijd1s> focuses on earth science and citizen science opportunities during April 2020  to coincide with the 50th anniversary of Earth Day<https://t.e2ma.net/click/actmbd/6094u8/yakd1s>. STAR Net invites libraries and their communities to participate in this important event by utilizing all of our programming resources<https://t.e2ma.net/click/actmbd/6094u8/e3kd1s>.

Earth Campaign Video Collection
To help libraries and their communities learn about our changing planet, the STAR Net team has selected inspirational videos<https://t.e2ma.net/click/actmbd/6094u8/yerd1s> that show environmental impacts featuring scientists who study our changing planet and people and communities who are impacted by climate change.

The videos can be used by libraries to help promote their programs about Earth’s changing climate and the importance of sustainability, including on social media, and used to inspire learners of all ages at events and in classrooms. They are a wonderful complement to hands-on science activities such as the Our Planet: EARTH collection<https://t.e2ma.net/click/actmbd/6094u8/e7rd1s>.

The STAR Library Network (STAR Net) is a hands-on learning network for libraries and their communities across the country. STAR Net focuses on helping library professionals build their STEM skills by providing “science-technology activities and resources” (STAR) and training to use those resources. Plus, engage public audiences nationwide in informal and lifelong learning with the excitement of exploration and discovery through STAR Net's NASA@ My Library program!
STAR Net is built upon a strong network of collaborators and partners, led by the Space Science Institute’s (SSI) National Center for Interactive Learning (NCIL). Partners include the American Library Association’s Public Programs Office, Collaborative Summer Library Program, Chief officers of State Library Agencies, Lunar and Planetary Institute, Afterschool Alliance, Education Development Center, American Society of Civil Engineers, and Cornerstones of Science. Major funding is provided by the National Science Foundation, NASA Science Mission Directorate, the Gordon and Betty Moore Foundation, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
