[aisle] School Library Journal Summit 2020

[Moreillon, Judith Lynn]

Dear All,
I would like to add to Ellen's comments.

I also attended the Summit and wrote about the sessions I was able to attend (so far or wished I had attended): Reimaging School, Engage and Excite with TeachingBooks, Vote Woke: Empower Students to Vote with Books and Community Support, and In Conversation with Patrisse Cullors.

If you attended any part of the Summit, I hope you will share your takeaways with the list or on my blog.

As Ellen notes, it's not too late the sign up for this free professional learning opportunity: https://www.slj.com/?event=slj-virtual-summit-2020

Best,
Judi

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
