We invite SJRLC librarians who serve teens from both school (middle and high) and public libraries as well as administrators who fund these services to join us for a great booktalking program, networking lunch, and planning session on services to teens in the Region. 
(Librarians from other Regions can register on a space-available basis)

We are pleased to announce that Jennifer Hubert will be our guest presenter!

Booktalking the "Reading Rants" way! 

Booktalking is a tremendous tool for promoting your collection and attracting readers. Join our speaker Jennifer Hubert, author of the website Reading Rants! Out of the Ordinary Booklists for Teens andbook of the same title, in a fun, useful, interactive presentation.  You will learn tips and techniques that will help newbie and seasoned booktalkers alike craft successful booktalks that connect young adults with books they will love!

Jennifer is a self-described YA librarian, book reviewer, author, quilter and reality TV junkie. She helps librarians connect with young adults, and helps young adults connect with books they love through herwriting, blogging, and presenting. When she's not reading or writing about great young adult books, Jennifer works directly with teens in her position as the Middle School Librarian at the Little Red School House & Elisabeth Irwin High School in Greenwich Village in Manhattan.

In addition to Jennifer's presentation, we will also hear about the new Teen Spaces at Atlantic City and Camden County Libraries.  There will also be time for you to talk and share with each other.

We promise you a day of engagement, sharing, and inspiration!
