Find yourself looking for inspiration when it comes to creating awesome programming for your teens? The 365 Days of YA Task Force wants to help, but first, you have to be willing to share your successes and creativity. The 365 Days of YA project is a Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA) task force charged with creating a calendar of plans for programs, services, and activities for teens. These simple ideas are easy to implement and can be used by anyone working with youth in libraries.
While any ideas relating to YALSA resources, using technology, or encouraging teen participation in libraries are encouraged, the 365 Days of YA Task Force also wants to hear about any program, service, display, or activity that has been a hit with your young adult patrons. Send all ideas to 365daysofya@gmail.com, and keep sending them through June 2013, when the task force wraps up and makes the 365 Days of YA calendar available via the YALSA website.
