Baltiero Gets Seat On ALSC Committee

Main's YS Library Associate Anthony Baltiero was recently asked by the president of the Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC), a subsidiary of the American Library Association (ALA), to sit on the School-Age Programs and Service Committee. The appointment, effective July 1, 2017, is for two years. Anthony said, "This is exciting news; there are only eight seats on the committee and JPL will now have some direct representation for at least two years."  

The mission of the committee is: “To identify and disseminate information on effective, cooperative or innovative programming for school age children to libraries, schools, and community agencies serving youth. To develop training workshops on school age programs and services and present them at conferences, institutes and for other institutions serving youth. To cooperate appropriately with other ALSC committees and other associations working with the school age child to initiate activates and projects.”
