Subject: [Youngadultservices] "Tech Savvy Teens" program

Hi all,
   I am happy to announce that the Youth Services Forum of the IL Library Association is holding a spring workshop at a PALS library-the Plainfield Public Library!  The topic is "Tech Savvy Teens" and the workshop will be held on Friday, April 18th from 9:30 a.m. to noon.
   Youth/teen librarians, Alexandra Tyle-Annen, Dan Braun, Kelly Laszczak, and Joe Marcantonio, have been implementing tech trends into their libraries' youth services programs.  They will discuss technology trends such as gaming, social networking, blogging, and instant messaging and how to effectively use these trends to enhance your library programs for youth and teens.
  Cost is $20 for ILA members and $25 for non-members.  The registration form is online at http://www.ila.org/events/regforms/YSF_08.pdf. Deadline for registration is April 11. Some carpools are available.  Please contact me for details.
   Following the "Tech Savvy Teens" program is the PALS SASSY meeting.  This is a group of youth services librarians from the east side of the system that meets to discuss program ideas and other hot topics.  Specific discussion for this meeting will include spring ideas and Summer Reading Program plans.  There is no cost for this meeting. Anyone wishing to stay for the SASSY meeting is welcome-"regulars" and visitors alike!  If you can attend, please register on PALS CLeO at www.palsnet.info/events<http://www.palsnet.info/events>. We will plan a Dutch-treat lunch between the two programs for anyone interested.   Let me know if you have any questions!
Take care,
Jane
