Faster than a speeding locomotive, you fly through the branch, effortlessly delivering story time to toddlers, providing homework help to a table full of teens and providing a parent with a Spanish language book list for her 10 year old. You're able to leap a stack of books in a single bound and lift a crate of books with ease. You dazzle us all with your excellent interpersonal, organizational, leadership and communication skills. Cape or not, we want you on our side! Multnomah County Library is looking for a creative, customer service-oriented, charismatic Bilingual Spanish Youth Librarian to join our team!

We'll also use the hiring list created by this recruitment to fill potential future Youth Librarian vacancies throughout the system. As the Kenton Bilingual Spanish Youth Librarian, you will draw on your programming prowess to assess the needs of your community while you plan, prepare and implement programs (including storytimes) and outreach to youth and families. You know how important it is to connect with all of our patrons, so outreach will be an important part of your duties. You will be building and maintaining professional relationships with children, teens, families, educators and care providers in both the Latino community and the larger community we serve. You'll use your expertise in literature, research and other areas to provide excellent customer and informational service to children, teens, families, educators, and care providers.

D?a is a nationally recognized initiative that emphasizes the importance of literacy for all children from all backgrounds. It is a daily commitment to linking children and their families to diverse books, languages and cultures. The common goals of all D?a programming are to: * Celebrate children and connect them to the world of learning through books, stories and libraries. * Nurture cognitive and literacy development in ways that honor and embrace a child?s home language and culture. * Introduce families to community resources that provide opportunities for learning through multiple literacies. * Recognize and respect culture, heritage and language as powerful tools for strengthening families and communities. We invite you to tell us what you are doing at your library throughout the year to celebrate D?a. The information will display on the website, in both the map and database format, allowing you to share it with other librarians and the public interested in learning more about D?a programs happening around the country. We also invite you to help us evaluate and track D?a on a national level by participating in a brief survey after your D?a event(s). By checking ?yes!? at the end of this form, you agree to receive the survey to be sent in May. The information you provide in the survey will help us evaluate the success of D?a and provide information to help D?a grow. Read more!

Project Outcome is free for public libraries until at least 2017 (maybe longer!) and also gives public libraries free access to Impact Survey. Learn more: https://www.projectoutcome.org/ Interested in trying Project Outcome? Talk with your library director about it. All public library directors should have received this email on 11/5/2015. If you want more information about how Project Outcome aligns with what's going on in the Oregon public library community, read on! If not, skip the rest of this email. Project Outcome evaluates four desired outcomes across seven types of library services and programs. The four outcomes evaluated are patrons' changes in 1) knowledge, 2) skills, 3) behavior, and 4) attitude as a result of using library services. The seven library service areas these four outcomes are evaluated in are: * Civic/community engagement * Digital inclusion * Early childhood literacy * Economic development * Education and lifelong learning * Job skills * Summer reading As an Oregon public library, you might use Project Outcome to conduct outcome based evaluations associated with: * Edge Initiative (digital inclusion, education and lifelong learning, job skills) * Ready to Read grant (early childhood literacy, summer reading) * Statewide databases (education and lifelong learning, job skills) * Optional: Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) competitive grants (Project Outcome service areas would vary depending on your LSTA grant) Questions about using Project Outcome for statewide programs?

Read through the list, rate how well you are doing on each one (no one is perfect, even those of us with degrees need to improve in some of these areas-be honest with yourself!), and talk to your supervisor about it. Make sure your supervisor knows what competencies you're good at and ask to get training in one or two of the competencies you want to work on improving.

Greetings! Below are some great resources from WebJunction including two upcoming free webinars ? take a moment to register or read up on 3D printing or Project J.O.B! Articles from WebJunction ? 3D printing in libraries: 3D printing conjures notions of the Star Trek replicator?a computerized machine that can turn a verbal command into 3-dimensional objects, including food items. The evolution of 3D printers is advancing rapidly toward and even beyond that sci-fi vision. This is transformative technology, and libraries are positioned to be a hub of the transformation. ? The Social Library explores great ideas and programming efforts by public libraries. This week?s issue includes libraries supporting new American citizens and a ?My Family Reads? photo contest.

Family Literacy at a Food Pantry Thursday, December 3, 2015 ? 3 pm Eastern / 12 pm Pacific ? 60 min Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/family-literacy-at-a-food-pantry.html The Cazenovia Public Library is connecting the dots between early literacy, the local food pantry and family well-being, and they?re doing it all on a small budget. Starting with an Early Literacy project at the CazCares food pantry, library outreach coordinators began to build more in-depth relationships with the food pantry?s clients. Their interactions led to unexpected positive outcomes: ? adults obtaining their high school equivalency through the library tutoring program; ? school age children participating in an interactive summer learning program and book club; ? and the food pantry becoming the site for ESL classes, Dolly Parton Imagination Library sign ups and health literacy initiatives. Find out how this innovative library team supplemented their small budget with donations and volunteers to make Family Literacy work for the community.

Tutorials Please pardon the cross-posting. I thought these resources might be helpful in a public library setting, too. Happy last week of School Library Month (http://www.ala.org/aasl/slm)! Here are three resources that your staff and patrons might want to know about. Ben's Guide to the U.S. Government: Updated Website from Government Printing Office "GPO's educational Web site, Ben's Guide, has been redesigned and is now available as Ben's Guide to the U.S. Government. Named for one of our Nation's most influential Founding Fathers, Benjamin Franklin, Ben's Guide to the U.S. Government provides educational content for the public on the workings of the U.S. Government and U.S. history, with a focus on civics. Some highlights of the new site include: * Enhanced site content * Modernized look and feel * New images * Reorganized layout for a more intuitive learning experience * An educational, interactive game" http://bensguide.gpo.gov/ http://www.fdlp.gov/news-and-events/2243-gpo-launches-ben-s-guide-to-the-u-s-government Digital Compass: New Interactive from Common Sense Media Common Sense Media has a new tool, Digital Compass, designed to help middle school students develop digital citizenship skills. "Learn the fundamentals of digital citizenship through animated, choose-your-own-adventure interactive experiences, designed for grades 6-9. Invite students to explore digital dilemmas, make good (and not-so-good) decisions, and try out possible solutions through stories and mini-games - all without risking their real-world reputations." There's already a game for elementary students in grades 3-5: Digital Passport. Both can be played online or via the related app. https://www.commonsensemedia.org/educators/digital-compass http://www.digitalpassport.org/educator/materials https://www.digitalpassport.org/educator-registration https://www.commonsensemedia.org/educators/curriculum "What is a Periodicals Database?": Two Tutorials Through OSLIS, your students and you have access to periodicals databases from Gale. Your district or school might subscribe to similar databases from EBSCO or ProQuest. But, what is a periodicals database, anyway? (Basically, it's a big pot of informational text, or nonfiction, with articles gathered from newspapers, magazines, journals - that's the periodicals part - that is topped off with content from some reference books and multimedia sources.) Here are two short tutorials designed to answer that question and explain why good researchers don't just rely on the open Internet for sources. The tutorials are probably best for middle and high schoolers. Or, some of your teachers might benefit from watching them.
