[aisle] School Library Journal Summit 2020

[Ellen Popit]

Good afternoon.  I had the great pleasure of virtually attending the School Library Journal Summit on Saturday, October 24th and I hope that many of you did, too..  It was wonderful and it was FREE.  I checked back with School Library Journal and for next 90 days, registration will be open and the sessions available for viewing.  The theme was "Culture Shift" and there was a significant emphasis on EDI..  The keynote was James McBride author of The Good Lord Bird.  I also attended a session on "Empowering Educators:  Having Courageous Conversations with Students About Race and Racism"----that came complete with a 50 page Educator's Guide.  It was time well spent and I just wanted to share the information.  Here's the link:  https://www.slj.com/?event=slj-virtual-summit-2020 and the registration button is about halfway down the page.  ----Ellen
