<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif">Explora has created a new round of workshops for library staff around the state (if you attended the previous workshops on rocks/soil and space you’ll know what to expect) this fall. This batch
of workshops have been created to tie into Summer Reading 2020- yes, I know you all JUST finished 2019 and can’t even begin to think about next year but the grant that makes these workshops possible ends in October so they have to happen before the grant ends.
There will be 3 workshops, each 10-2:30 with a half hour for lunch. They are hands on and you will learn how to hold STEM based programming at your libraries with very little funds needed all around the theme of fairy tales. The dates and locations are:<o:p></o:p></span></p>

While the duties vary, committee obligations generally run for one calendar year, and are renewable up to five times. Sign-ups for 2020 are from Aug 12 - Sept 27. All committee work is done virtually; either through email, or through phone or online meetings.
Attending the CSLP Annual Meeting is not required.<br>
