The 2016 MASL (Missouri Association of School Librarians) Conference was one of the very best I have been to in a long time. The featured speakers were great...especially Jennifer LaGarde (aka Library Girl). Of course I follow her on Twitter and read her blog regularly, but I had never heard her speak before. In short, she was PHENOMENAL! I still find myself thinking about her talk!
Fellow Liberty teacher-librarian Teresa Barnett and I presented a workshop entitled, Blending Your MakerSpace & Library Standards For Student Success. Check it out if you are implementing a MakerSpace in your library or school.
I also met author Tim Green and won an autographed copy of his book. Obviously, I had to get a pic with him:). Plus, I was thrilled to hear David Shannon's presentation on his life as an author. What an amazing storyteller he is!
Conferences are a great place to gather new ideas for programming and get a fresh new look at what is possible in your library. I am looking forward to bringing Battle of the Books to my library!
