Take 5: An Ohio Youth Services Experience
Friday, May 7, 2021, 1:00-4:00 pm
(plus self-paced lead-up activities!)

It has been a long winter and an even longer time of multiple national and global crises. We are exhausted and our teens are also exhausted, and we miss them! But spring is coming, and recent pandemic news is hopeful, and we are all more than ready to reemerge into active library life, refocus on supporting our own and our young peoples' well-being, and reconnect with our teens and each other.

Take 5 is ready to meet you online to share creative approaches, new ideas, collaboration, and network-building. For the tenth annual event, the planning team is creating a quality, unconventional professional development experience, focused on mental and emotional wellness, with the theme "Reemerge, Refocus, Reconnect."

Take 5 is a day of dialogue and discovery for public library teen and youth services specialists, school librarians, and other youth advocates. Take 5 events feature active learning opportunities, speaker sessions with allies outside the library field, hands-on activities, and networking.

In recognition of online meeting fatigue, this year's live event will be 3 hours max, instead of all day. Registrants will receive links to exclusive prerecorded speaker sessions and other activities to explore at your own pace before the live event. This content directly compliments the theme and will be woven throughout the day's activities.

Take 5: Reemerge, Refocus, Reconnect is FREE but registration is required. Registration is anticipated to open in early March. Registration will be announced on this list and other Ohio library listservs, and will be posted to the Take 5 webpage<http://library.ohio.gov/take5> and Facebook page<http://www.facebook.com/Take5YouthServices>.

Take 5 is supported by the State Library of Ohio with federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
