A Different Tune

Let's talk about music! I have fallen back in love with my children's music collection. What I first saw as a tiny, outdated, and admittedly old (I'm looking at you Kid Songs) collection, has grown to be a vibrant part of our circulating materials. Yes, they are CDs, and yes that feels a bit 90s like all the time, but the miraculous part is that with a little weeding, relabeling, and choice additions of new music, this collection has grown significantly in popularity.

Not sure where to start with a children's music renovation? Have no fear, SLJ's ClefNotes music reviewers are here, with the Top 10 Children's Music of 2016! Titles include Justin Roberts' Lemonade and The Laurie Berkner Band's Superhero. Check out the full list HERE and get your groove on!

Youth Services Section

The Wisconsin Library Association's Youth Services Section (YSS) advocates for professional empowerment, collaboration, and innovative, inclusive, and intentional service. To that end, YSS provides a forum and resources for people in Wisconsin's libraries who share a commitment to serving children and young adults, their parents, caregivers, and teachers.

It is a vital, dynamic group whose interests focus on providing quality library service and encouraging literacy and library use. YSS members include public and school library staff, library trustees and library supporters who work together to benefit youth in Wisconsin.
