    Hello Library Research Round Table,
    We all know that great things can happen when researchers and practitioners collaborate to study practice!

    A youth services manager in a large public library system is interested in collaborating with a researcher to study the structure and impacts of the library's summer learning program.
    If you think you might be interested in spearheading this type of project, please respond directly to Katie McDonald at the Mid-Continent Public Library (Kansas City, MO). 

    Here is Katie's contact information:
