Summary: Demographics suggest that the number of teens in the U.S. will
hit an all-time high during this decade. Join guest, Patrick Jones,
internationally known for connecting teens and libraries as we discuss
new trends and formats in services to teens, and his work as an author
for teen audiences.

librarians
Things change 
New directions for library service to young adults

What's so scary about R.L. Stine? 


LIS Radio is a new and exciting series of interactive webcasts brought
to you by the School of Information Science and Learning Technologies at
the University of Missouri-Columbia. Their aim with these webcasts is to
help in "...creating and exploring the intersection of information and
learning." We hope to present interesting and stimulating conversations
with movers, shakers, and the odd gadfly or two in libraryland. Watch
their calendar for future programs in all series.


Let me know if you have any questions.
