meaningful resources to their patrons through a diverse range of resources—<a href="https://cslpreads.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405&id=a875142024&e=c18caf2bb6"><span style="color:#007C89">from current news and information to
primary source content, special collections and more</span></a>.<br>
<br>
Among our most impactful offerings are NewsBank’s <a href="https://cslpreads.us13.list-manage.com/track/click?u=043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405&id=442db8692b&e=c18caf2bb6">
<em><b><span style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#007C89">Local Historical Newspaper Archives</span></b></em></a>. For libraries looking to safeguard local history for future generations, the digitized historical archive of their hometown paper allows
them to preserve the unique stories, voices, and events that shape the community's identity. Our partners regularly cite their archive as one of their most used resources, while also driving new library card sign-ups and significantly increasing patron engagement.

</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">In March, we hosted a four-part learning series. Sessions covered the why of summer services, letting go of tradition, connecting with community voices,
and measuring progress. Each session included opportunities to talk with colleagues about the theme as well as the chance to reflect on what participating library staff were thinking and wondered about. In our session evaluation, participants noted that the
opportunity to reflect on equity together and hear diverse perspectives, along with the chance to “learn from other practitioners,” were valuable parts of the training. Many praised the virtual cohort model as “a safe environment provided by the facilitators
and fellow cohort members.” Most felt their voice was heard and recognized during the BCBS sessions and felt a sense of trust, support, and community within the cohort, helping to provide a space to grapple with uncertainty or discomfort. </span><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><o:p></o:p></span></p>

Children can thread on large color-coordinated beads onto the chenille sticks after sticking one end into the foam. This will allow sorting skills and matching the colors. It will also allow children to practice and strengthen fine motor skills when picking
up the beads and threading them on the chenille sticks. (Note: After adding the beads, children may need extra help sticking the other end into the foam without the beads sliding off.) Be sure that use of the beads is supervised and the bead size is appropriate
for the age of the participants.</span><span style="font-size:9.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:#222222">
