Welcome!
I’m Marta-Kate Jackson, a Youth Services Librarian & Manager from Michigan with 15+ years of experience in public libraries.
Here at The Youth Desk, you’ll find program plans, outreach ideas, and bookish inspiration for use in the library, classroom, and home.
I hope these resources make your day brighter and allow you to spend a little less time planning and more time connecting with your readers.
Sharing is Caring
In addition to serving children and families, I’m passionate about supporting librarians and educators. Nothing short of magic happens for our children and communities when we collaborate.
Please don’t hesitate to share your own library or literary insights and ideas by commenting on posts. Your questions and expertise are valuable and move us all forward as professionals and people.
I’m so excited to learn from you and spread the joy of reading together.
Thank You for Stopping By!
