provide the curriculum and a
technical instructor if you cant
find your own. This last school
year, my library hosted a Girls
Who Code Club for 13 girls. I
was responsible for the administration of setting up the Club:
advertising, holding information
sessions and signing up students for the program - all skills
that I use every day as a librarian. Additionally, I was responsible to set up presentation equipment for each Club meeting and
helped plan and arrange a graduation at the end of the academic year. It was a role that I was
not only well-equipped to do but
one that also felt extremely
rewarding!
My library doesnt have a separate computer lab, but we have
12 computers in our teen room.

BayNet hosted its first Pokmon
GO Meetup in Downtown Hayward on August 20th. While the
trainers (aka attendees) were
few in number, they had a fun
time catching Pokmon together. While some people had been
playing Pokmon GO since its
release, others started playing
during the meetup with help
from their fellow trainers.
BayNet member, Monica Ruck,
brought along crocheted Pokmon characters she made for
yarnbombing. They were adora-
