I'm a former YA Librarian and also the brand new convener for the newly re-launched <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fgroup%2FTeen" style="color:#2d74a0;">Teen Services Special Interest Group</a>!<br />
<br />
I'm writing our Weekly this time around to spread awareness about all the cool things SWON can do for Teen Services staff or any staff that works with teens. First, like I mentioned, we will be rebooting the <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fgroup%2FTeen" style="color:#2d74a0;">Teen Services Interest Group</a> (TeenSIG)! This <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2F%3Fpage%3Dsigs" style="color:#2d74a0;">Special Interest Group</a> will meet once quarterly starting on <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fevents%2FEventDetails%2Easpx%3Fid%3D907951%26group%3D138094" style="color:#2d74a0;">February 16, 2017</a>. We'll talk about new trends in Teen Services, share programming and service ideas, and occasionally we'll have short presentations and discussions on various Teen Service topics.<br />
<br />
We don't want to leave anyone out, so this group will meet at different libraries in the region. Our <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fevents%2FEventDetails%2Easpx%3Fid%3D907951%26group%3D138094" style="color:#2d74a0;">first meeting</a> on February 16, 2017 will take place at the <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ebcpl%2Eorg%2Fabout%2Flocations%2F" style="color:#2d74a0;">Main Branch of the Boone County Public Library</a>. At this meeting, we will set our agenda for future meetings, share ideas from past and upcoming Summer Reading programs, and more! Please make sure and <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fevents%2FEventDetails%2Easpx%3Fid%3D907951%26group%3D138094" style="color:#2d74a0;">register for this event</a>, so we know you'll be coming. </font></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333; font-size: 1 em; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif;!important;"><font color="#444444" face="verdana, arial, sans-serif" size="4">Here at SWON, we also want to promote the reading of Young Adult literature and nonfiction for library staff. For that, we have <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2F%3Fpage%3Droyal" style="color:#2d74a0;">ROYAL</a>, our Reviews of Young Adult Literature special interest groups. We currently have 3 ROYAL groups -- one here in <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fgroup%2FROYALBlueAsh" style="color:#2d74a0;">Blue Ash</a>, one in <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fgroup%2FROYAL" style="color:#2d74a0;">Northern Kentucky</a>, and one in <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fgroup%2FROYALFairfield" style="color:#2d74a0;">Fairfield</a> -- that meet and review books together.<br />
<br />
Publishers send copies of their new titles to SWON, which are the distributed to our ROYAL groups. At each meeting, we share reviews of the last meeting's books. We then get a number of free books to review for the next meeting. (Did I mention the books you get are finished copies... and you get to keep them?) <br />
<br />
Each group meets at a different time of day and in a different location in the hopes that we can accommodate as many potential reviewers as possible. And all of this comes at a great price: Employees of our <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2F%3Fpage%3Dsupporting%5Fmembers" style="color:#2d74a0;">Supporting Member Libraries</a> only need to pay $50 a year to join! Others only pay $100 per year, which is a bargain when you realize you'll get over $1000 worth of books to add to your professional or personal library. (Work in a library with total operating revenue of under $400k a year, </font></span><a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Finfo%40swonlibraries%2Eorg" style="font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: large; color: #2d74a0;">contact us</a><span style="color: #333333; font-size: 1 em; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif;!important;"><font color="#444444" face="verdana, arial, sans-serif" size="4"> and we can help you out on dues!)<br />
<br />
If you find it difficult to come to a ROYAL meeting, but are interested in hosting one of your own, please <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Finfo%40swonlibraries%2Eorg" style="color:#2d74a0;">contact me</a>! Convening a group is easy and looks great on a resume. Not to mention the fun you'll have sharing books with your colleagues. You only need one convener and 2 other confirmed members to begin.</font></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #333333; font-size: 1 em; font-family: verdana, arial, sans-serif;!important;"><font color="#444444" face="verdana, arial, sans-serif" size="4">In fact, we recently had a group do just that: if you are in the northern reaches of our service area, you may want to check out the new <a href="http://swonlibraries.org/link.asp?e=oplinlist@lists.oplin.org&job=2787893&ymlink=85415952&finalurl=http%3A%2F%2Fswonlibraries%2Eorg%2Fgroup%2FROYALTroy" style="color:#2d74a0;">ROYAL - Troy (OH)</a>.
