Author Biography:

Jenn Carson is the Director of the LP Fisher Public Library and the creator of www.yogainthelibrary.com, a popular, non-profit resource dedicated to educating librarians and teachers about creating yoga and meditation programs in public, school, and academic libraries. She also writes a monthly online column for the American Librarian Association on the delivery of physical literacy programs (www.programminglibrarian.org/users/jcarson) and travels regularly to present at conferences and professional development seminars on how to establish successful movement-based programs in libraries. She will deliver her first keynote address in October 2019. Carson is also the creator of many webinars, instructional videos, and numerous handouts and worksheets. In 2016, Carson received the Innovation Award from the New Brunswick Public Library Service for her physical literacy initiatives. In 2017, she earned the Atlantic Provinces Library Association Memorial Award to create a website for physical literacy programming in libraries (www.physicaliteracyinthelibrary.com) and was declared a “remarkable woman making a difference in Atlantic Canada” by Amplify East(www.amplifyeast.com/amplifiedvoices/jenn-carson). In 2019, she won the Library Journal Movers & Shakers Award and the Atlantic Provinces Library Association Advocacy Award for her public programming and community involvement. Carson is the author of Physical Literacy: Movement-Based Programs in Libraries (ALA Editions, 2018) and Yoga and Meditation at the Library: A Practical Guide for Librarians (Rowman & Littlefield, 2019), as well as numerous journal articles, book chapters, and reviews.
