CHICAGO—91´«Ã½ Publishing eLearning Solutions announces a new session of our popular workshop, with Corey Wittig. This workshop will consist of two 60-minute sessions and take place at 2:30pm Eastern/1:30 Central/12:30 Mountain/11:30am Pacific on Wednesdays, January 9 & 16, 2019.

In the age of iPads, YouTube, and instant information sharing, an ordinary “computer lab” doesn’t draw teens into the library the way it used to. To get teens more active in the library and enthusiastic about library programs and services, a Digital Media Space can be the draw—a place that teens can go to record videos, use social media, create projects, and engage with the community and their peers on their own terms. Digital media expert Corey Wittig knows what it takes to build an effective, popular lab, and he’ll share his knowledge with you in this comprehensive, two-part workshop.
