+Overview
Injecting STEAM into Library Spaces
Injecting STEAM into Library Collections & Services
Injecting STEAM in Existing Programs
+Injecting STEAM into our SPACES
+Key Strategies:
“STEAM-up” existing spaces
Repurpose underutilized or duplicative spaces
To do so, ask, “What can we STOP doing?”
+Assess Your Space! Look for opportunities both small and large
Respond to community needs
+Rethinking Budgets
Rethink Programming Budgets: STEAM kits, technologies, and tools can be used again and
again in scheduled programs, as well as on a drop-in basis
Assess Other Budget Lines: Are we expending resources in areas that have lost their
relevance?
