    Join fellow school librarians for Book Party, an engaging professional development opportunity designed to inspire conversation, collaboration, and informed collection development! In this interactive session, participants will read, write, and share book reviews, building a valuable resource for their libraries while discovering fresh titles to support student learning and engagement.

    Throughout the event, librarians will:

    -Select and review new books across various genres, formats, and reading levels.
    -Share insights on literary merit, student appeal, and curriculum connections.
    -Exchange reviews with colleagues to broaden perspectives and strengthen selection decisions.
    -Build a communal database of trusted, peer-reviewed book recommendations for collection development.

    Whether you're looking to diversify your collection, find hidden gems, or engage in meaningful discussions with fellow professionals, Book Party is the perfect space to celebrate reading, refine selection strategies, and strengthen your library's offerings.

    You can earn up to 14 credits for your work in this asynchronous course. Each book you read and review will earn credits- the number of credits varies based on the type of book.

    This session is only open to school librarians in the Monroe One and Monroe 2 regions.
