This facility is home to children ages 0-21 as they await placement in foster homes; they may stay there for as little as two days and as long as several months. Through weeding, reorganizing, gathering donations, and recommending new purchases, a plan is now in place for the library to truly serve this community &#8211; as long as ACS is able to secure a staff person to maintain the space and collection.<\/p>\n<p>Excerpt: This presentation reviews our work to improve the quality and functionality of the library at the Children&#8217;s Center, a temporary residence run by the Administration for Children&#8217;s Services.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-6672\" src=\"http:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/IMG_5550-e1525742976403-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/IMG_5550-e1525742976403-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/IMG_5550-e1525742976403-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/IMG_5550-e1525742976403-973x1297.jpg 973w, https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/IMG_5550-e1525742976403-508x677.jpg 508w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This presentation reviews our work to improve the quality and functionality of the library at the Children&#8217;s Center, a temporary residence run by the Administration for Children&#8217;s Services.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":280,"featured_media":6672,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[282],"tags":[208],"coauthors":[386,258,387,388],"class_list":["post-6514","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-282","tag-special-libraries"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6514","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/280"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6514"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6514\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6822,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6514\/revisions\/6822"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6672"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6514"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6514"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6514"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/studentwork.prattsi.org\/infoshow\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=6514"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
