[Nhcoll-l] How To STEAM SPNHC - manual published

[Deborah Paul]

Greetings SPNHC Folks,

If you were at SPNHC 2025 this year (in person), you experienced STEAMed 
SPNHC. Thanks to everyone who participated! Some of you donated artwork, 
others bid (and won!), local organizers helped make the dream a reality, 
and others helped make sure all the events ran smoothly such as the 
Unconference and Artist's Corner. We, Chandra Earl and I, wrote a manual 
to share why we did this, how we did it (and you can too), and what were 
the results (so far) from our first effort. We hope you find it useful 
in your own local efforts and for future SPNHC meetings. If you weren't 
there, we hope you'll give our manual a look-see to learn about what we 
did and for how it might help your local collections relevance and 
expertise advocacy.

Please feel free to share widely and we look forward to everyone's use 
of and variations on the ideas and activities and possibilities 
envisioned in any future STEAMed SPNHC.

Thank you to all of you who listened to our ideas and helped us give 
them form and function.

With gratitude,
Debbie and Chandra (cc'd)
