Y'all. I created this "Library Wrapped" template to help #librarians share their mid-year data BEFORE the end of the year when many budget/staffing decisions are already made. Access the template here: www.librarygirl.net/post/your-li...

I hope y'all find this resource useful!

Thank you so much, but I am not looking for book recs. I’m looking more for the work of librarians who are designing and delivering programming for the very littles. I wanna know how their time with prek kiddos is structured and what “success” looks like. Thank you again!
