"Think Big represents the compassionate and professional beating heart of YA programming. Built on a foundation of extensive field practice and wide-ranging supportive resources it advocates youth-led, technology-infused, and professionally-informed ideas for librarians north, south, east, and west; in public or school environments; and from program inception to outcomes-based evaluation." --Anthony Bernier, Associate Professor, San Jose State University
"Think Big! is a gold mine of teen programs from book festivals and author visits to poetry, a Monster Bash, pop culture and STEM. My favorite is Finals Café, the perfect spot to study before exam days. Best of all is the step-by-step guide to putting on every program." --Pam Spencer Holley, Former Librarian and Administrator, Fairfax County [VA] Public SchoolThink Big represents the compassionate and professional beating heart of YA programming.
