dc.description	It is fun to be a teen at the Detroit (Mich.) Public Library. You get to participate in workshops like Bike Tech, Graphic Design, Crafternoon, Robotics, and Music Electronics. You can learn how to solder and sew and practice computer programming and print-making. Participants not only have fun, they also become more creative, more confident and seekers of new information. Learn how the library established its HYPE Teen Center and Makerspace and created a culture of teamwork, imagination, and hands-on experience for its teens. Originally presented March 20, 2013, as part of the 2013 PLA Virtual Spring Symposium. Running time: 1 hour, 2 minutes. Learning Outcomes: Understand how creative programming can benefit their libraries and YA patrons; Feel confident to try new and original programming ideas; and Know how to get started planning the space and programs to engage teens in an inventive way. Presenter: Steve Teeri is a customer support assistant at the Detroit (Mich.) Public Library, where he began working in 1998. His duties currently include working on various technology projects and instructing DPL staff and patrons on the use of library technology.
