Are you looking for summer PD that can be immediately applied to your school library? Are you looking for PD to renew your license? But it can’t be anything too taxing, after all, it is summer break. OELMA is pleased to offer a virtual book study using the book entitled, Elevating the School Library: Building Positive Perceptions through Brand Behavior by Susan D. Ballard & Sara Kelly Johns. The class will meet virtually on Tuesday mornings between June 18th & July 9th with the authors joining us on July 2nd. The class will wrap up with a student project designed to be implemented into their school library. A final optional project round table will be held in early August for those wishing to share their project with the class and receive feedback.

The class is available for contact hours or one graduate credit through Ashland University. OELMA members as well as non-OELMA members are welcome to join the class. Sign up between April 8th & May 31st on OELMA.org (under Professional Development tab).  If you choose to pursue the graduate credit option, you must also register through Ashland University no later than May 31st at: OELMA Book Study Course EDU 6160 P7
