    Program: 2023-2024 - School Library Services

    Dates: 10/22/2024

    Librarians and library services play a significant role in the literacy development of young people.

In this workshop, participants will examine research findings and instructional resources, collaborate with peers, and develop plans for supporting and enhancing student's literacy and social development.

    Donalyn Miller, Keynote Presenter
    Research findings show that wide reading can foster the development of positive social behaviors and attitudes, including empathy. Wide reading remains one of the most accessible ways for young people to build background knowledge about topics of personal interest and academic study. In this session, Donalyn Miller will share research findings, instructional moves, resources, and programming ideas for promoting wide reading. Session includes work session time to explore resources and collaborate with peers.

    This full day event has been planned in coordination with the School Library Systems Association of New York State.
