We're committed to providing the best possible traditional and cutting-edge library services to children and young adults, both in our buildings and in the community, and we seek someone who shares that commitment. As the Youth Librarian, you will draw on your expertise in youth literature and development when providing excellent customer and informational service to children, teens, families, educators, and care providers. You?ll be responsible for connecting internal and external patrons, particularly African Americans, with the information they seek as well as delivering a variety of professional-level library services. You will assess the needs of the community and plan, prepare and implement programs (including Black storytimes) and outreach for your service area, as well as build and maintain professional relationships with patrons and surrounding organizations. Not only will you develop programs for youth, you will also collaborate with your manager to identify opportunities and develop adult programs for the African American community as well. You will work closely with fellow branch staff as well as the Youth Services team. You will help ensure that branch continues to be a welcoming space for the community. To be successful in this role, you must have excellent interpersonal, organizational, leadership and communication skills to help the library develop innovative services for the 21st century. You?re experimental and a risk-taker who is willing to try new things. You will be comfortable working with all youth of all ages, particularly African American youth and be able to shift with ease between storytime, school-age programs, and teen volunteer recruitment and mentorship. You don?t shy away from technology; you actually embrace it and understand the importance of and know how to use various types of social media. You will occasionally serve as the person-in-charge of the branch.

Message-ID: <640435851FD7CB4AB3C4BE0D1963BA245CF8911B@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local> ZERO TO THREE(r) published 2015 State Baby Facts which includes Oregon-specific data, National Baby Facts report, and a great toolkit with instructions on how you can use Baby Facts. The toolkits includes talking points laid out as a problem statement, explanation of why it matters, and a proposed solution. The toolkit also includes sample Tweets, facebook posts, and articles/emails s to help you share this information with your community. Why is this important for Oregon libraries? * Public libraries provide families with babies and toddlers access to early childhood development and education resources and programs. We are part of the solution, especially for economically disadvantaged families that don't qualify for Head Start or other free/subsidized programs yet can't afford to enroll their baby or toddler in high-quality childcare and education programs. * Children's librarians are experts in early literacy, one of the four things the Oregon Department of Education assesses to determine kindergarten readiness-the other three are math, social-emotional development, and self-regulation all of which children's library programs can help with too! * Public libraries are working with their regional Early Learning Hubs or other community organizations to address the issues brought to light via the 2015 Baby Facts. Some of the issues are: o 55% of Oregon parents read to their 0-5 year old child daily. o 59% of Oregon parents tell stories and sing to their 0-5 year old child daily. o 51% of babies and toddlers in Oregon are poor or near poor. o In Oregon, child care costs an average of 52% of a single mother's income. o 27% of babies and toddlers in Oregon are maltreated-remember, Oregon library staff are mandatory reporters now. * Libraries need to educate our communities that early learning unfolds in libraries. The report says "...learning unfolds in many settings, including the home, child care centers, Early Head Start (EHS), family child care homes, and family, friend, and neighbor care." It doesn't mention libraries! Use the Baby Facts toolkit to get the message out that realy learning unfolds in your library.

Bedtime Stories for Young Brains by Perri Klass, MD (Article about the two new studies) August 17, 2015 http://well.blogs.nytimes.com/2015/08/17/bedtime-stories-for-young-brains/?emc=eta1&_r=0 * Children whose parents reported more reading at home and more books in the home showed significantly greater activation of brain areas in a region of the left hemisphere called the parietal-temporal-occipital association cortex. This brain area is "a watershed region, all about multisensory integration, integrating sound and then visual stimulation," * children who were exposed to more books and home reading showed significantly more activity in the areas of the brain that process visual association, even though the child was in the scanner just listening to a story and could not see any pictures. * The different levels of brain activation, he said, suggest that children who have more practice in developing those visual images, as they look at picture books and listen to stories, may develop skills that will help them make images and stories out of words later on. * "It helps them understand what things look like, and may help them transition to books without pictures," he said. "It will help them later be better readers because they've developed that part of the brain that helps them see what is going on in the story." * But it turns out that reading to - and with - young children may amplify the language they hear more than just talking. * In comparing the language in books to the language used by parents talking to their children, the researchers found that the picture books contained more "unique word types." * children who are being read to by caregivers are hearing vocabulary words that kids who are not being read to are probably not hearing. * So reading picture books with young children may mean that they hear more words, while at the same time, their brains practice creating the images associated with those words - and with the more complex sentences and rhymes that make up even simple stories.

I liked it so much I didn't review it through a diversity lens and included it as a giveaway in the first year of Reading for Healthy Families. Sometimes we like what we like even when we know better. That might be okay in our personal lives, but in our work we need to act professional and think of the broader impact on children, families, and our community. Here are two great articles about the negative stereotype and incorrect use of language in the Skippyjon Jones books. * Skippyjon Jones and the Failed Read-Aloud * Skippyjon Jones: Transforming a Racist Stereotype into an Industry Skippyjon Jones is a popular series that most, if not all of you will keep in your collections to meet patron requests. Upholding the principles of intellectual freedom in providing our patrons the materials they want is part of our professional Code of Ethics. However our Code of Ethics also indicates that we have a responsibility to provide services, including storytimes and other programs, that are accurate, unbiased, and courteous. This is a reminder that not everything on our shelves is appropriate for storytimes and other programs. Therefore we need to review all the books we use in programs, even popular ones with good reviews, before using them in our programs and we need to remember to apply a diversity lens when doing so. In the past several years I've learned more about how to apply a diversity lens when reviewing books and other media. I've learned more about stereotypes, micro-aggressions, and other topics related to diversity and diverse books. Now I cringe when I read Skippyjon Jones and am embarrassed that I ever liked it. If you used to like a book you now know presents negative stereotypes or inaccurate representations of diverse people, please share and get it off your chest! You might just help the rest of us who may not have applied the diversity lens to that book yet. We all make mistakes, but we learn from them and get better at our jobs as a result.

Last year 14 attempts to ban books, videos, sound recordings and magazines in Oregon libraries were reported to the Oregon Intellectual Freedom Clearinghouse (OIFC). Thirteen of the challenged items were retained in the collection and one was removed from the collection. I encourage you to incorporate this information and/or the titles of the challenged materials in your Banned Books Week displays and activities. Many people may not realize that book banning is not a thing from the past or that attempts to ban books are made every year right here in Oregon. This is a valuable educational opportunity to discuss the nature of the First Amendment-just as we have a right to access these materials in our libraries, we have a right to question whether they are appropriate to include in public collections. * Why might someone find these materials inappropriate? * Why should they remain in the collection? * Is labeling a book an effective way to inform people about content that may not be appropriate for everyone or is it a form of censorship? * What would you do if someone came up to you in your library and said they want you to remove a book from the collection? * Why is a collection development policy the most important line of defense when library materials are challenged? * Does your library have a policy or established procedure for patrons to challenge material?

Who has time to deal with conflicts? When conflict occurs, and we are confronted with a colleague, library patron, supervisor, or board member who is frustrated and upset, it can be tempting to identify a quick fix. However, when we do take the time to practice clear communication to uncover what people really need, we can get to better outcomes. Healthy communication involves: ? Actions that show you are really listening ? Communication with people who are angry or upset in a way that their needs can be addressed and resolved ? Knowing your own emotions and needs, and effective ways to express them Practicing healthy communication skills will boost your self-confidence and contribute to a happier workplace.

The following free webinar is being brought to you by Library Journal: Providing exceptional library service on a small library budget and staff size presents special challenges, but also unique opportunities to meet core community needs. In this new webcast series, a combination of live and on-demand presentations funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, winners and runners up from a decade of LJ's Best Small Libraries in America award, plus other rural and small library voices, will share hands-on, real-world tested expertise. Moderated by Kristi Chadwick, Small Libraries Advisor to the Massachusetts Library System, registration is now open. Funding & Fundraising for Small Libraries Tuesday, September 1, 2015 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm PDT For small and rural libraries looking to not only sustain core services but stretch to respond to new community needs, effective fundraising is fundamental. Learn how to navigate the funding landscape to make the most of grants, work with foundations, and tap other sources as well as the bread and butter of advocacy for taxpayer funding and Friends support.
