[SCLA] Submissions Open for the 2025 Summer Teen Talk Newsletter

[Elizabeth Hughes]

Calling all teen librarians!! YASD is looking for submissions for our Summer 2025 Teen Talk issue! Send in your stories and show off all the cool stuff happening in teen departments around the county. For this issue we are looking for submissions on the following topics:



Program Highlights - Have you or a colleague recently ran a teen/tween program that you want to brag about and let other librarians see your amazing work? Send us a quick write up, around 5-10 sentences, describing the event and some pictures to be featured in the newsletter.

Book Displays - Same idea as the program highlights. Only this time, we want to see your shefies! Whether it was a holiday display, something topical or a theme truly unique to you, snap a pic to inspire other teen librarians!

Gadgets and Gizmos in Your Teen Space - Show us what cool toys/tech you have in your teen space! Whether it's for passive programming, LoT items geared towards teens or a board game that is constantly in play, we want to know about it! Snap a quick pic of the item and include a brief description of what it is to inspire other libraries to add it in their collection!

New Faces in the Teen Department - Are you a new teen librarian? Have you hired a new teen librarian? If the answer is yes, now's the time to introduce yourself/them to YASD! Send us an email with some fun facts about yourself so we can all say hi and welcome you to the group!

However, if you have any other burning articles/write up suggestions, we are open to them! Just send us an email and we can chat!
All submissions must be received by June 6, 2025 in order to be included in our Summer Newsletter, hitting your inboxes before July 1! All submissions can be emailed to youngadultsd at gmail.com<mailto:youngadultsd at gmail.com>.
