Stacey from Augusta reminded me about the upcoming Wisconsin Science Festival, October 15-18.  This is a great opportunity to share science-related programming with your community and be part of a state-wide effort.  And they are all set to help support a physically-distanced event–for any age!  Options include a Badger Talk from a University of Wisconsin professor, participating in a BioBlitz (citizen science for all ages!), and more.  It looks inspiring and positive, at a time when we are relying more than ever on the information science can provide us.  I hope some of you can get your library involved.
