Bonnie Brzozowski, Elizabeth Johnson, and Kristy Kemper Hodge are an all-star team of \
librarians at the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library. Please read about the fun, \
exciting, and popular programs they have developed in their latest article, “Library \
Takeovers: After Hours Nerf Games and More at the Corvallis-Benton County Public \
Library,” here: https://commons.pacificu.edu/olaq/vol23/iss4/11/
<https://commons.pacificu.edu/olaq/vol23/iss4/11/>
From their article, “The Corvallis-Benton County Public Library (CBCPL) has been \
hosting action-packed after-hours events for all ages since July 2017. Referred to as \
Takeovers, these events involve crafts, video games, Nerf games, and more—all while \
the library is closed. Each Takeover event is tailored to a specific age group \
(either tweens, teens, or adults) and people from outside that age group are not \
permitted in the library during the event. Takeovers are all about having fun and \
connecting with others and have proven to be incredibly popular; for example, \
registration and attendance caps are necessary for the Tween Takeovers to be sure the \
library can accommodate all that want to attend. This article will discuss the origin \
of the idea for CBCPL’s Takeovers, how these events are planned and coordinated, tips \
for any library interested in hosting their own Takeovers, and the ways in which \
these events tie into the CBCPL mission.”
Please feel free to contact the authors to ask about their experience with these \
programs, and click on the photos below to learn more about them.
Thank you,
