*ALA Midwinter - YALSA Research Committee Event* *YALSA Research Forum* *Friday, January 24, 3:00-4:00pm * *Pennsylvania Convention Center 103A* Please join us for this session facilitated by the YALSA Research Committee. We will introduce an ongoing project of our committee: an environmental scan and curated collection of existing data sets about the lives of young people. We’re interested in connecting these topics - library use, social media and technology, health, education, literacy, college preparation, and others - to YA library services. Following some brief sharing on the project, participants will gather in break-out groups to explore ways this research may relate to or inform young adult library programs and services. The session will conclude with a group debriefing. Thank you for your consideration, and hope to see you there!
