It really gets to me every time someone asks me what my profession is and I tell them I’m a librarian and they look at me with surprise as if a African American male can’t be a librarian

@MichaelBuono @reneereads A3: Be persistent. Sometimes it takes a few tries to get through the doors or even to get a phone call with someone at the school. #777f2017
Once you are “in” show them what you have to offer. What amazing resources are available through your library? (databases, ebooks, etc.).

@shericew8780 I never see the purpose in that honestly. I think I.T discourages them to come back

[Musa Jatta @MusaJatta16]

I think the desire to increase teen participation should be incorporated in the program design from the get go. Involve the teens in the affairs of their space and programs. They will own it and increase as they pass the message #777f2017

#777F2017 i honestly find no purpose charging teens for certain things in a library. I think it discourages them to come back to the library. Do you agree?

[Musa Jatta @MusaJatta16]

How productive will it be to ask teens this question after a failed program: "As teens what would you have done differently if it was you organizing the program?" #777f2017

[M @oooooopablo]

@RhymeswithCheez I like that question and now it has me thinking 🤔

[Melissa K @badasslib]

#777f2017 Has anyone ever experienced pushback when it comes to having teens be more involved in running a program?

[M @oooooopablo]

What can be a challenge when coming up with a teen program? #777F2017

[M @oooooopablo]

What is the best way to advertise a program for teens, other than social media ? #777F2017

[M @oooooopablo]

@shericew8780 Very true sherice and it also allows them to bring others as well to the space

[M @oooooopablo]

@AmandaLibrary I agree with you Amanda in order for teens to be involved in your programs you have to involve there ideas so they can feel apart of it

[M @oooooopablo]

@MichaelBuono Simple. By understanding them and just listening to what they have to say. Teens generally just want someone who won’t judge them

[M @oooooopablo]

@MichaelBuono The biggest challenge for me will be juggle being their friend and being serious with them

[M @oooooopablo]

@MichaelBuono Programs. Have programs that involves what teens want and not what we think they want

[M @oooooopablo]

@MichaelBuono Personally I would say be informed with the trend. Everyday there is always a new trend just say on top such as social media

@MichaelBuono The scariest thing about being a teen in my opinion is life after graduation. Will they go to college or seek a job. Not knowing the unknown

[M @oooooopablo]

@MichaelBuono At first I was not interested in working with teens but throughout this semester my views had changed. Now I am more inspired and driven
