I know that some libraries in IFLS-land have done some great experimenting with pop-up programs, or programs that don’t take a ton of preparation and can be available at any time, whenever there are kids in the library. The ASLC Blog recently had a great line-up of suggestions from Amy Koester for STEAM pop-up programs. These look fun! And it seems like many of them could be adapted for a wide variety of ages, including teens.
If you are looking for more ideas of “stealth” programs that aren’t tied to getting kids and teens to the library at a specific time, be sure to look for the breakout session (with Jenna Gilles-Turner and Jessi Peterson) at this year’s Summer Library Program workshop! Register here by November 10.
