Good morning, friends! I wanted to pass along info about these free events for teens from LFPL in the hopes that you will share it with your students. I will be doing a lot of "LOVE my Library" programming in February-- including some pop-ups from our outreach at the Newburg branch. She will be in the building and helping students get updated library cards and connect with all the resources LFPL shares (from e-books and audiobooks, to reservations, to Hoopla)! Everyone will get the opportunity to get a new library card, but let me know if you would like to plan a special session with your class to introduce all of the perks that come with it! Always here to assist! Kate Barrows Library Media Specialist, Educator, Coach
