Launches Text-Message Advocacy Service
Posted on May 3,
2012<http://www.districtdispatch.org/2012/05/ala-launches-text-message-advocacy-service/>
by Jazzy Wright <http://www.districtdispatch.org/author/jazzy/>
|<http://www.districtdispatch.org/2012/05/ala-launches-text-message-advo
|cacy-service/#respond>

This year, the American Library Association launched Mobile Commons, a new advocacy tool that will allow library supporters to receive text message alerts from the ALA's Office of Government Relations. The opt-in service will allow the ALA to communicate advocacy messages in a quick and effective fashion using an innovative texting and calling feature.

Advocacy subscribers will have the option to call legislators to discuss particular issues toll-free through Mobile Commons. The text messages will provide subscribers with talking points on issues before automatically transferring the advocates to the offices of their legislators.

Advocates who wish to sign up for the service can text the word "library"
to *877877* or sign up online at
districtdispatch.org/textalerts<http://www.districtdispatch.org/2012/05/ala-launches-text-message-advocacy-service/districtdispatch.org/textalerts>
.

Mobile Commons was created to deliver more timely communication with advocates and to generate a higher volume of calls into Congress. The Office of Government Relations was alerted to the service after the micro-blogging site Tumblr used it to generate 88,000 calls into the House of Representatives in 14 hours as part of their opposition to the Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA).

"This timely program will make it much easier for library advocates to stay informed and get involved in the issues facing our nation's libraries,"
said Ted Wegner, ALA grassroots coordinator.

Service subscribers can expect to receive 2-3 texts per month on average.

Here at PCC we are in the process of remodeling one of our libraries.
We are taking the opportunity to reevaluate what we call our Reference and Circulation desks.  One factor we want to consider is what our students are experiencing when they are in other libraries throughout the state.  We would appreciate it if you would take a moment to complete a very short survey about what you call your service desks:

http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/Z7355KM

We'll be happy to share the results!

Maybe you did not see the message I sent about unsubscribing on Sunday.
One of the people who asked to be unsubscribed over the weekend tried it and was very happy to find it really was easy.  Here is my message again:

*Diedre Conkling * <diedre08 at gmail.com>   Sun, May 6, 2012 at 2:44 PM
To: libs-or <libs-or at listsmart.osl.state.or.us>
   A couple of people have asked today to be unsubscribed from this discussion list.  You don't have to wait and hope that someone will unsubscribe you soon.  You can do it yourself just as you can change your other settings on libs-or yourself.

At the bottom of each message you receive from libs-or you will find this url, http://listsmart.osl.state.or.us/mailman/listinfo/libs-or.or you can do a browser search for libs-or and find the same url.

When you click on this url just go down to the bottom of the page and fill in the last box with your email address.  This will take you to a page for managing your subscription.  the second section on that page lets you unsubscribe.  It really works very well.

Subject: [Libs-Or] Support Staff Division Seeking Candidates

The Support Staff Division of the Oregon Library Association is seeking candidates for Vice-chair/Chair-elect.  This is a three year commitment -- serving one year as vice-chair, learning the ropes, one year as chair, and one year as past-chair.  This is an excellent opportunity for professional and personal development.  Although it is a lot of work, it is also very rewarding, and you make a lot of great friends and contacts along the way.  The thing to remember if the prospect seems daunting is that you're never alone in any aspect of the "job" -- the rest of the board and the past chairs are always there with you.

Susan Bacina
Past-Chair, OLA/SSD

>From Sean Park, current SSD Chair :

SSD is a wonderfully diverse group of library professionals, ranging from supervisors and shelvers to IT and children's librarians, and countless other areas of expertise across the spectrum of libraries in Oregon, from large to small.

I entered my term as SSD Board Chair with a sense of wonder and excitement (and a bit of bewilderment), as I previously did not have much exposure to SSD and almost no exposure to OLA. The SSD past-chairs were my lifeline (one serves on the Board and is an invaluable asset to the Chair), and helped me feel welcome while answering all questions I had along the way. My first event was the OLA Executive Board retreat in Silver Falls, which was a great experience that was made even better as the past-chair was at my side, keeping me apprised of procedure while providing valuable background on the topics at hand. Working with the OLA Board has opened my eyes to the great things OLA does, and the group is composed of a wide range of librarians, every one of them friendly, helpful, and very devoted to the OLA mission. It has been a great pleasure getting to know them and working alongside them, and you will feel very welcome very quickly with this group.

This past year has seen some exciting changes for SSD. Scholarship awards for OLA membership and attendance at the annual SSD conference have been increased, and SSD membership is also going up.
Videoconferencing has opened up involvement in SSD for people who otherwise couldn't participate due to distance. SSD is looking to expand training offerings across the state with book mending and technology workshops, while looking ahead at different training approaches (including increased exposure to the LSSC program) to help support staff increase services amidst shrinking budgets.

Time commitment:

Chair the monthly SSD board meetings, which can be attended in person or remotely via phone or videoconferencing (4 hours per month, depending upon travel) Compose the monthly SSD board meeting agenda (1 hour per month) Attend the monthly OLA Executive Board meetings (in person or remotely,
5 hours per month)
Attend the annual OLA Board retreat in Silver Falls in person (2 days per year) Attend the annual SSD conference (1 day per year) Liaise with OLA to assist members representing SSD at the OLA Conference
(1 hour per month)

My term as SSD Board Chair has been extremely rewarding. The exposure to library staff from all corners of the state, and the friendships I've made, have been personally and professionally enriching. I would not hesitate to do it again, and strongly encourage those who are seeking more involvement in OLA & SSD to consider running for SSD Board Chair.

Sean, SSD Board Chair
