Presented by CATS and CLASC, we warmly welcome you to the 2nd Annual Women and Technology in Libraries Panel. Join us as we celebrate and spotlight influential women who have harnessed the power of technology to innovate in their roles, serve their communities more effectively, and break through gender boundaries.
In this extraordinary panel, our guests will share their journeys and insights into how they’ve utilized technology to continuously support and enhance the libraries and their communities, offering insight for aspiring librarians, library staff, and technologists alike.
Through this gathering, we not only celebrate women’s achievements but also inspire a new generation to follow in their trailblazing footsteps, reinforcing the significance of diversity in libraries and technology.
Refreshments will be served and professional development hours will be given.

Join our organizations as we exhibit the great STEAM offerings the East End Libraries have, learn what you can do with STEAM without breaking the bank, and network with your library colleagues from across the East End in an interactive faire. All are welcome!
WHEN: Thursday June 15th, 2pm – 4pm WHERE: Riverhead Free Library 330 Court St, Riverhead, NY 11901
CATS, CLASC, and YASD will be running its first ever Maker Faire! This faire will be open to all librarians, but will mainly focus on the tween population.
We are looking for libraries that would be interested in manning a table during the faire to display any technology related items that would be appropriate for tweens. We would also welcome anyone willing to share Makerspace or STEAM programming as well. Our goal is to have librarians come together to network and become familiar with new technologies that they could possibly order for their collection.
Please fill out the Google Form if your library would be interested in having a table at the event to showcase what they offer. The Google Form must be received no later than November 1, 2022.
This series of educational programs for library professionals across Long Island is a collaboration between CLASC, NCLA & SCLA. Programs are open to all library staff at no charge & presented virtually via Zoom.
