From Jenna Wolf - Director of Library, Cambridge School of Weston, MA:

I'm hosting a conference for library folks who want to explore some progressive practices, including decolonizing efforts, making/manipulating things as a critical part of the research process, and how to get your students more involved in creating content for the library. It's meant to be workshop focused with tons of time to congregate in grade-level cohorts, making connections with others you can rely on throughout the year to get feedback, and more. The time is meant to be really active and an opportunity to fine tune some programming, develop some new programming, and build connections among area school librarians who have few spaces to engage in PD together.

Open to any and ALL library staff--public, independent, parochial, you name it. Please reach out to me directly for more information at jwolf@csw.org

It's a two day conference and we can offer housing (at additional cost) to folks on campus should they not be able to travel daily.
