Digital Media Storytime

Digital Media Storytime took place on October 6th and 7th at the Hagerstown central branch. A two day training focusing on the proper ways to give a storytime for young children and how to implement certain technologies.

As I am new to the field, even though I have the early childhood background, I found this training beneficial. Creative ways of using technology, such as e-books and popular children's apps was fascinating to hear about. Though, I use a lot of social media I wasn't too familiar with a lot of the popular apps they suggested.

It is my plan to eventually use the specifics of digitalization in storytime. I think this will draw in a certain age group and really get them interested in the library setting!
