ITEM/MLA is our state library association. The keynote speaker on Thursday was librarian Mychal Threets whose social media Library Joy posts have gone viral. He gave an inspirational talk about "library kids," freedom to read, and mental health.

On April 27, some GAPU students attended the Teen Lit Con. They met authors, attended workshops and presentations, made crafts, and hung out with friends. One of our groups even won a book contest against the authors! A day filled with books and fun. @spps_library @ChreeseJones

@harerscience @SPPS_Science Congratulations! What a wonderful opportunity.

Some Mpls. school administrators want to bring back licensed librarians, bucking a trend of slashing the positions from payrolls during tight budget times. Professional librarians, they say, help kids learn everything from technology to how to research. https://t.co/XYnSu3AIpG

Awesome science research by GAPU 6th graders. They learned so much about Minnesota's resources and put it all together into these beautiful one-pagers.

[Emily Harer @harerscience]

Last week in science, 6th graders did primary and secondary #research to learn more about Minnesota natural resources. They cited sources with #mybib and turned it into a #onepager! @gapu_library @SPPS_Science @sppsavid

In the GAPU library, Ms. Hunt’s 7th graders put the finishing touches on their History Day projects. As the library media specialist, I appreciate the depth and complexity of this research, and I love how proud they are of their accomplishment. They should be! @spps_library

Ms. Dailey's language academy students practiced their language skills while collaborating, creating, problem-solving, and having fun with the Lego robots during library time. @spps_library @ChreeseJones

The Global Arts Upper Library has a new look! Fiction books are now organized by genre. This makes it easier for students to find their favorite books and even discover some new favorites. @spps_library @ChreeseJones
