Juvenile Adventure Pack Refresh

LIBS 668: Internship in Libraries and Information Workplaces

A report of my involvement in a fully-fledged project to revamp a long-neglected predecessor of the juvenile library of things at my then-system of work, done as the capstone project for my internship. Though my efforts are just one step out of more than a dozen, the work involved was quite considerable, sifting through materials from old packs and evaluating the new books and tools and games and synthesizing it all into activities designed to engage school-age children. Compiling the data and literature and narrating the process in creating the report was also its own endeavor, clocking it at around 8,000 words over 29 pages.
