Massachusetts STEM Summit 2015

Across the Commonwealth when school closes for the day, children arrive at the public library to participate in a wide range of STEM-specific topics and programs. For the past seven years, selected Massachusetts libraries have been offering special after-school programs to engage elementary and middle school children in enrichment opportunities around a range of science and math topics. While based in libraries, these programs have successfully collaborated with a broad range of community organizations including schools, museums, science and nature centers, boys and girls clubs, parks and recreational facilities, local business, and institutions of higher education.
