Connecting Wisconsin Libraries is a networking group of school and public libraries that meets quarterly to facilitate collaboration with Wisconsin Library Association (WLA) stakeholders and Wisconsin Educational Media and Technology Association (WEMTA) stakeholders, and to foster collaboration between school and public libraries on a statewide level.
The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction's Library Services Team is celebrating our state's library staff, volunteers, and supporters during National Library Week, April 7-13.
As we celebrate School Library Month, it is important to recognize the significant role that school library media specialists play in enhancing students' literacy skills, fostering innovation, and promoting the application of ideas and information. Through lessons and collaborative integrations featuring literacy, STEAM, and digital learning, these dedicated professionals contribute to transforming learning experiences for students statewide.
No matter your level of gaming experience, there are a number of different statewide initiatives occurring which allow school and public librarians to learn more about, and get directly involved in, playful/games-based learning projects for students and library users of diverse interests.
