New Kernels
Kernels is an ongoing series of prerecorded videos from the State Library. Each installment in the series offers an overview of a program, service, or library methodology applied in a public library setting. They feature in practice librarians talking about what they're up to, so others can benefit & apply that idea in their library.
View on YouTube for informational purposes or in IA Learns for CE credit.
Kernels! The STEM Closet
Join Janeé Jackson-Doering (State Library of Iowa) and Roxie Young (Montgomery Memorial Library, Jewell) as they chat about how Roxie takes everyday items from the library's storage closet and turns them into fun and engaging STEM programming for kids and teens.
