Librarians: NASA Citizen Science has something for you!

Our new

can help you share NASA citizen science opportunities with your patrons and community members. Rural and urban libraries, informal educators, youth group leaders, and retirement community coordinators can all benefit from this resource. Together, we can open the door for more people to join the fun, learning, and thrill of doing NASA science.  

The toolkit prepares a program leader to lead a NASA Science event for people ages 8 and up. The toolkit includes: 

  • A guide to help you prepare for the event, from choosing and equipping the space, to becoming familiar with the citizen science project that will be the focus of the event
  • An editable 8.5” by 11” poster to advertise your event
  • A model agenda to follow during your event
  • A handout for you and your participants to help you explore NASA-sponsored citizen science project opportunities 

The toolkit creators, Sarah Kirn (Participatory Science Strategist, NASA, from the Gulf of Maine Research Institute) and Kara Reiman (librarian), together with NASA’s Citizen Science Officer Marc Kuchner, also recorded
