As we help communities grow it is essential we as librarians grow too or we will no longer be needed. #gslis777

Takeaways from #gslis777m1 section 3.4

(1) The class lecture reminds me that we must try to re-evaluate our services to stay relevant to the community, even if it means overcoming the challenges that may occur in doing so.

i agree it keep us updated in new ideologies and technology and over refreshed. its good to keep evolving. #gslis777

[i.irish @iirish7]

exactly we want to prepare teens for adulthood and being productive citizens. we shouldn't treat them the way we don't want them to act. #gslis777

4. Skate around offending them. We want them there. We don’t want them to feel like babies or like we are parenting them.

[i.irish @iirish7]

this is true some communities are already tech savvy but may want to learn about grant writing. we need to focus on their needs instead of assuming. #gslis777

4. I like the idea of learning your community and providing what your immediate community actually needs. There are a lot of pressures like technology, digital services and luxuries being repackaged for libraries to jump on but looking at what your community ACTUALLY need is

I agree with this. I know teens know way more about gaming and i depend on them to teach me how the game works and the rules. #gslis777

[Icy @iciibabii]

to aid you in your efforts. This gives them a sense of ownership and recognition for their abilities. I mean nowadays there are teenagers that know more about certain applications in technology that I have no clue about. They can teach us! #gslis777

Takeaways from #gslis777m3s5 Buono: do you think Sachem is able to provide great service because of the demography they serve & the budget they supply them? White Plains has state of the art tech & an awesome children's room & a great budget.. while other areas struggle.

[i.irish @iirish7]

#gslis77 Overall this class has taught me how to better service my teens. Some of the article/lectures i read have given me great program ideas. i also learned different methods of dealing with difficult behavior.

[i.irish @iirish7]

final takeaways #gslis777m4s2 ALA's Core Competencies of Librarianship contains section of knowledge necessary to graduate, Adminstrattion and Management. this class is not required at Queens college and prior to reading this. i wonder why and now even more.

[i.irish @iirish7]

#gslis777 Jensen: I have a lot of friends in the LGBTGIA community but I still feel i need a refresher course sometimes or additional education proper etiquette or terms. along with teen behavior, gender and sexuality should also be taught in library school.

@BadassBowden @MichaelBuono im confused

@BadassBowden @MichaelBuono

[i.irish @iirish7]

@BadassBowden um not sure what you are referring to and i didn't cite you

[i.irish @iirish7]

@MsLabarbera_LIB @MichaelBuono Exactly all patrons dont behave the same way so finding the right method is key

[i.irish @iirish7]

@hoenzsch I agree we should encourage teen so they will become lifelong learners and continue to utilize our Services
