C-SPAN journalist to share expertise today at Carson City Library

C-SPAN video journalist and community-relations representative Justine Jablonska will meet this morning with teens interested in video journalism.

The Carson City Library will host partners from the Boys & Girls Clubs of Western Nevada and teachers from the Carson City School District in the library’s @Two Digital Learning Center.

“With club and school district leaders, more than 15 BGCWN teens attended the (Monday) morning press conference to see firsthand the elements involved in video journalism, and (this) morning the same group will participate in a learning opportunity that will include tips from the pros followed by hands-on exercises at the library in the digital learning center,” said Tammy Westergard, interim library director.
