From jim.b.scheppke at state.or.us Fri Aug 6 12:01:16 2010 From: jim.b.scheppke at state.or.us (Jim Scheppke) Date: Fri, 6 Aug 2010 19:01:16 +0000 Subject: [AL-Directors] Have You Activated Your LYRASIS Membership? Message-ID: Dear Directors: I would like to remind you, if you haven't done so, to please activate your membership to LYRASIS for the 2010-11 fiscal year (ending June 30, 2011). You can do so by going to this website and filling out a brief form: http://www.lyrasis.org/Membership/Member-Enrichment-with-BCR.aspx The State Library has purchased a one year membership to LYRASIS for every Oregon library. There is no cost or obligation for you. Joining LYRASIS in 2010-11 will simply give you and your staff an opportunity to learn about the advantages of a LYRASIS membership for your library. I hope you will activate your membership soon if you have not done so already. Thanks!

As part of this project, we conducted a lengthy survey of the library community and gathered input from over 600 library staff from across the state. We are now seeking to find out from library directors their opinions about the value of an ALA-certified paraprofessional certificate when hiring new paraprofessional staff. If you are a director in any type of library in Oregon, please take the following BRIEF survey by no later than September 1, 2010. http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/NMDQFDK The results of this survey and the community analysis will be disseminated in the fall of 2010. Thank you in advance for your participation. Sincerely, Donna Reed Director of Libraries Portland Community College Sylvania Campus 12000 SW 49th Ave. Portland, OR 97219 Mail: P.O.
