Public libraries have staff for young people's services, build collections, conduct programs and market services for teenagers and young adults. They are an important client group. Yet many library staff feel awkward or threatened when dealing with them. They can seem alien and intimidating and conflicts can easily arise. The Youth Action and Policy Association (Yapa) in NSW, in cooperation with the public library network and the State Library of NSW, has developed training resources to build the knowledge, skills and confidence of library staff in working with teenagers and young adults. Edited version of a paper presented at '12 to 24s @ your public library in Australia and New Zealand conference' Qld 11-12 June 2010. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
