Summer Reading Program

If you’re not planning to offer an Adult Summer Reading Program, WHY NOT? Adults are people, too, and having a Summer Reading Program is a great way to show them your library cares. Did you know participants in Adult Summer Reading Programs:

Have families who also participate?
Are looking for ways to stay active and involved?
Become library advocates?
VOTE for Library funding?

Now that you know why you should have a program, join Santa Clara City Library Librarian, Morgan Pershing and Simi Valley Public Library Director, Heather Cousin, as they share the nuts and bolts of creating a successful Adult Summer Reading Program at your library. During the webinar, Morgan and Heather will discuss:

How to start a program for first timers, including how to encourage your administrators and fellow staff to support your effort
How to enhance your existing program
How to develop affordable programming
How to target adults

This webinar will be of interest to Adult Services Librarians and anyone curious about Adult Summer Reading Programs.

This on-demand webinar is designed to teach participants how to administer Project Outcome surveys to measure outcomes for their library’s summer reading program. By successfully administering surveys, libraries are able to use the results to showcase program successes and influence future summer reading programs. Hear from one Project Outcome participant who successfully surveyed their summer reading program in 2015 and learned valuable lessons from the process. There is also a Q&A and discussion segment where participants had the opportunity to ask questions and share ideas with their peers.
