The Georgia Library Association Carterette Series Webinars presents
The Candy Corn Question: Passive Programming That Pulls People In
Wednesday, October 26, 2022
2pm Eastern (11am Pacific | 12pm Mountain | 1pm Central)
Cost: Free
Description: Libraries that use passive programming appreciate it as an economical, time-efficient way to engage customers. It can also be an inclusive way to show people of all abilities and backgrounds that they belong in the library - and that the library belongs to them. We are living in a time of relearning, re-educating, and reassessing - the perfect time to invite our users to express themselves within our space. Passive programming pundits and authors of The Passive Programming Playbook: 101 Ways to Get Library Customers Off the Sidelines, Andria L. Amaral and Paula Willey, will talk about passive programming that reaches out. They'll discuss the specific challenges of service to young people, and the delightful solutions each has come up with. You'll learn how to shoehorn passive programs into the most crowded of library spaces - and even how to use passive programming outside the library to pull people in. Passive programming is an inclusive way to embrace every library user - join us for your booster shot of inspiration.
