Your Pittsburgh – My interview presentation was a neighborhood-centered digital storytelling program.
From Humble Beginnings…
![Page 13: Creating a Digital Media Space for Today's Teens](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5555037ab4c905c35e8b4bc7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Getting started, or How Do You Create an Initiative Out of Thin Air?
• Plan your program in the context of your library’s Strategic Plan/vision/mission statement– At every turn in the search for funding
you will have to justify your program. It starts here.
– Root it in research.
(It might sound
obvious, but)
![Page 14: Creating a Digital Media Space for Today's Teens](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5555037ab4c905c35e8b4bc7/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

APPLE
• Apple – certainly not necessary, but probably the best and easiest for digital media lab programming. (Better graphics, video, etc.)
• iLife included (iMovie, GarageBand, etc.)
• Will your IT Dept. support it? (Ours does not.)
• Not networked = not ideal
![Page 37: Creating a Digital Media Space for Today's Teens](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5555037ab4c905c35e8b4bc7/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)

Graphics and creating a brand

SPACES• 2nd to mentors in importance (I think)• 2 branch Labs (East Liberty and Allegheny—recently
renovated) are housed in meeting rooms until a teen space build-out scheduled for 2013-2014
• Meeting rooms—temporary solution, but can make it work
• South Side (newly renovated) Lab is in the old caretaker’s apartment/programming space on the second floor
• Main Lab housed in CLP-Teen Dept.
![Page 44: Creating a Digital Media Space for Today's Teens](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081515/5555037ab4c905c35e8b4bc7/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
SOUND ISSUES
• Headphones
• USB recording interface means all you hear is muted strumming or keyboard strikes.
• Teen space/digital media lab is ideally placed in a dedicated space, set off from other library services. (Obvious, maybe, but true!)
