Our overall goal for this project is to provide the nation’s 9,000 public libraries with a fieldtested and replicable science literacy model that staff can adapt to engage their patrons in meaningful and relevant science experiences. This Guide advances library practice and empowers public library staff to effectively build their science literacy capacity.
Empowering Public Libraries to be Science Resource Centers for their CommunitiesThe Marketing Communications Toolkit offers 10 tips focusing on effective promotional communications for your science, technology, engineering, and math programs. They’ll also help you think about ways to position your library as a STEM learning center in your community.
STEM in Libraries: Marketing Communications ToolkitLibraries large and small are becoming essential hubs of STEM education for people of all ages. Through free access to the internet, computers, tablets, books, DVDs, workshops and programming, libraries remove barriers to STEM literacy and inquiry. These services are especially vital for children and youth whose families might not have the means for extracurricular STEM enrichment opportunities.
