NASA programming and resources can be utilized by libraries to engage tweens and teens with space-related activities. The librarian attended a NASA workshop on Jupiter and integrated concepts into the library's after school and summer reading programs. Edible crafts and weather activities were successful, while strings and exploding balloons did not work well. The programs were well-received as shown by return visitors wanting more and positive parent comments. Contact information is provided for questions about planning future space-themed library lessons and activities.
