Katie & Joseph’s YALSA Vlog Ep. 2: Catching Missed Misconceptions
From time to time, YALSA teen blogger Katie and I will get together to have a heart-to-heart talk about issues affecting teen librarians from both a teen and librarian’s perspective. This episode: how do misconceptions slip into our daily routines and how you can we identify and overcome them?
What a great perspective. The world will benefit from more open discourse like this.
Thank you Joseph and Katie! I really enjoyed the video. I try to be a non-shushing, non-lame-slang-using librarian.
I like the idea of trying open-ended questions with teens (“What’s going on?) and also more focused questions (“Hey, have you seen the new _____ movie?”).
Aw. Two of my favorite library peeps. Oh, wait, should I lay off the slang? Ha ha. Well done, guys. Keep ‘em coming.
