Hello All,  Check out these youth services resources and reminders!  BadgerLink Bulletin  Britannica Trainings in October - Join us for a webinar series from Britannica Education! Four 30-minute sessions, each Tuesday of October at noon on Britannica resources available to you through BadgerLink.  These training sessions will be for Britannica School features and functionality, but may be applicable to the work you do in public libraries as well.   View the Britannica Trainings story.   Reminder to check your Library’s BadgerLink access  The BadgerLink user authentication system was updated on June 20. Some libraries and schools may find previous automatic access is no longer available. Read on for an easy way to determine if your institution still has automatic access, or if you need to take steps to get it back. When accessing from outside the library or school, use the login option when prompted.    View access story.  CSLP 2026 Unearth a Story  Save the Date! The CSLP Store opens on Monday, October 6, 2025.  The Manual access code will also be available on October 6 (and maybe sooner! Stay tuned...)
