Hello Librarians
The term emerging adults is a new demographic; it encompasses ages 18-25.  This group includes primarily young adults who do not have children, do not live in their own home, or do not have sufficient income to become fully independent in their early to late 20s.  Emerging adults do not see themselves as adolescents, but many of them also do not see themselves entirely as adults.
Four  librarians ( Laura Liang, Jessi Snow, Vikki Terrile and Julie Winkelstein) are researching this age demographic in library settings and looking at how this age group is being served in terms of the programs, services, if there is a specific librarian assigned to work with this population (teen, adult or emerging adult) and how the library system is sharing and promoting this service area.  We are beginning our research  with a survey,  to gauge how many libraries/library systems are doing this kind of work.  We  then plan to speak to some of those libraries/library systems to have a more in depth conversation about the services and the librarian(s) that provide the services.  Ultimately the goal is to end with a research paper in a peer review publication.  We appreciate your input as it helps us capture the work that is being done for this population.  Please respond to the survey in Survey Monkey by January 30.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/LWL8NLD
Thank you for taking the time to participate in this survey!

Subject: [Libs-Or] New Book at the State Library: Rightsizing the Academic
 Library Collection
Message-ID: <203B0B8CF6665A4B822F17E789DD1AD15285E5D2@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local>

The following new title is available for interlibrary loan from the Oregon State Library.

[http://www.alastore.ala.org/images/Ward_300.jpg]
Ward, Suzanne M. Rightsizing the Academic Library Collection. ALA Editions, 2015. ISBN: 978-0-8389-1298-0


Description
Ward defines rightsizing as a strategic and largely automated approach that uses continuous assessment to identify the no- and low-use materials in the collection. The book provides an outline for developing a plan, working with stakeholders and consortial partners, assessing digital content holdings and their impact on physical collections, and future trends in academic library physical collections.

Table of Contents
Available on the on the LIS Collection Blog: http://osl-lis.blogspot.com/2015/01/rightsizing-academic-library-collection.html



If you would like to request this or other materials from the Oregon State Library please use your library's established interlibrary loan process (e.g. OCLC or ALA request form).  Otherwise, send your full name, the name of your library, complete title information, shipping address, and a phone number to the document delivery department at library.request at state.or.us<mailto:library.request at state.or.us> or (fax) 503-588-7119. Items will be checked out to your library, not to you personally, for 4 weeks (print materials) or 2 weeks (videos). Materials will be delivered via mail or Orbis Cascade Alliance Courier, and you may return them the same way. Normally a single copy is purchased and is loaned on a first-come-first-serve basis. You may be put on a hold list for several weeks.

Most library staff are able to use their library's interlibrary loan service to borrow professional development material. However, if you do not have access to these services or are not currently affiliated with a library, please contact me<mailto:arlene.weible at state.or.us> to discuss alternative options for borrowing the material.

Be sure to check out our Library and Information Science (LIS) blog<http://osl-lis.blogspot.com/> to discover the most recent additions to our LIS collection and search our catalog<http://oregon.gov/OSL/index.shtml> for our complete holdings. The library science collection is meant to support the whole Oregon library community. Library Development welcomes your suggestions for acquisitions - see the blog for an input form or email us!

Message-ID: <2390277ECFB8EB4E8B9378C2A5F2254F0E9BB6B5F5@OTK-MAIL-04.oit.edu>

Secure your discounted Early bird Registration for Online Northwest - register today!
The 2015 Online Northwest conference will be held on Friday, February 13th, at the CH2M Hill Alumni Center on the Oregon State University campus, Corvallis, Oregon, from 9:00 am - 4:00 pm.

REGISTER ONLINE<https://conferences.bus.oregonstate.edu/Conference/onw/registration>
Registration rates and deadlines for Online Northwest 2015 are as follows:

*         Early bird registration $100 (ends January 9, 2015)
*         Regular registration $130
*         Onsite registration $150
Online Northwest is a conference addressing issues at the intersection of libraries, technology and culture. This year we have an exciting program that includes presentations and workshops on digital inclusion, wearable tech, library as publisher, code playgrounds, digital assets management, data visualization and more. View the conference program at: http://onlinenorthwest.org/2015-program/

Mita Williams<http://leddy.uwindsor.ca/staff/mita-williams>, User Experience Librarian at the University of Windsor, will start off the day with her keynote presentation: Teach for America. Code for America. Librarianing for America.


The motto for Code for America is "a new kind of public service".  The motto of CrisisCommons is "we help connect people to help those in need".

This talk is not going to dwell on the matter that librarians lack a good word - much less an official motto - to describe the work we do.  Instead, a case will be made for a new program to be designed to get more librarians working within more organizations in more communities.

Drawing on historical texts, this accessible volume provides a broad understanding of preservation for librarians, archivists, and museum specialists. Cloonan offers students and professionals an overview of longevity, reversibility, enduring value, and authenticity of information preservation. Each section includes historical works that form the basis of contemporary thinking and practices, readings from a variety of fields that are primarily concerned with the preservation of cultural heritage, and hard to find publications that shed new light on how to approach contemporary problems. The author's selections and insightful commentary on each comprise a truly global and current view of preservation.

Library Board News


State Library Board Met in Salem on December 5th

The Oregon State Library Board of Trustees met on Friday, December 5, 2014 at the Oregon State Library. The Board heard the appeal of staff decisions for Ready to Read grant awards, conducted a post-transaction review of agency head financial transactions, elected members to the Oregon Talking Book and Braille Library Advisory Council and the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) Advisory Council, and reviewed the quarterly board survey from the Governor's Office. The Board also approved the proposal to transition the Answerland virtual reference service from Multnomah County Library to the Oregon State Library. The next meeting of the State Library Board will be on Friday, February 13th at the Oregon State Library in Salem.

State Library Board at Full Strength

On December 9, 2014, the Senate confirmed the Governor's appointment of three new members of the Oregon State Library Board. The new members are Ann Malkin from Bend, Jennie Tucker from Union County, and Leslie Hicks from Independence. The new members attended the December 5th meeting as guests since they had not yet been confirmed by the Senate. Their first meeting as Board members will be February 13th at the State Library. Look for profiles of all our Board members in upcoming issues of Letter to Libraries Online.

Talking Books Provides Access to The Residue Years by Mitchell S. Jackson

When the Multnomah Reads coordinator of Multnomah County Library asked the Oregon Talking Book and Braille Library if our collection included The Residue Years by Mitchell S. Jackson in August, we did not have the title. We contacted the Collection Development Coordinator for the National Library Service for the Blind and Physically Handicapped (NLS) in Washington D.C. and asked if it was available. The title was not being considered for recording, but, at our urging they committed to either option the commercial audio or record it. By October, they learned that the commercial recording was not a possibility so they immediately put the book into production. We learned last week that the title is ready for our Multnomah County patrons on BARD (Braille and Audio Reading Download).

We have worked successfully in the past with NLS to expedite a recording for a Community Reads program. In 2010, we brought Phillip Margolin's Fugitive to Talking Books, The Help in 2009, and in 2008 we asked them to expedite Diana Abu-Jaber's Origin and Three Cups of Tea by Greg Mortenson.

Oregon Talking Book and Braille Library wants to help your print-disabled library patrons participate in your Community Reads events. Email us, call us, send us a letter...tell us your selected titles as soon as you select them. If we can, we'll contact NLS and request those books on Talking Books audio for our mutual patrons. We'll send letters to every one of our patrons who lives in YOUR service area letting them know about your library's Community Reads event. We will make sure that all requests for copies are satisfied...we can make as many simultaneous copies as we need to. To give an example: we have 1,400 registered Talking Books users in Multnomah County alone. We will probably make about 80 copies of The Residue Years to circulate to those folks in the next couple of months.

Letters About Literature Elementary and Middle School Entries Due January 15th

[LALLogo]Letters About Literature is a national reading and writing contest sponsored by the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress and by Oregon's equivalent at the State Library. Students write letters to an author explaining how that author's book changed their way of thinking about the world or themselves. There are three competition levels: Level I for 4th-6th graders, Level II for 7th-8th graders, and Level III for 9th-12th graders. Oregon's three winners - one from each competition level - will go on to compete nationally. Entry forms and guidelines<http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/youthsvcs/aboutlit.aspx> are available online. All Level III entries were due in mid-December of 2014, and Level I and Level II entries by January 15, 2015. In 2014, about 1,040 students in Oregon entered the contest, and 1 in 8 received cash prizes or bookstore gift certificates. These prizes are made possible through support from the Oregon Reading Association and three divisions of the Oregon Library Association: Oregon Association of School Libraries, Children's Services Division, and Oregon Young Adult Network. For more information, please visit the website<http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/youthsvcs/aboutlit.aspx> or contact Jennifer Maurer<mailto:jennifer.maurer at state.or.us>, coordinator of Letters About Literature activities in Oregon. Thanks for passing along the information and encouraging participation, including for homeschooling families. Please note that this is likely the last year the State Library will coordinate the program because of changes within the agency. State Library staff are working to find a new home for Letters About Literature. However, if no organization takes it on, this could be the program's last year in Oregon.

New Library Services and Technology Act Advisory Council Members Elected

The OSL Board of Trustees met December 5, 2014 and elected new members to the LSTA Advisory Council. New members are Melissa Maxwell from Lakeview, representing library users; Dana Campbell from Corvallis, representing public libraries; Jim Tindall from The Dalles, representing school libraries; and Jonathan Cain from Eugene, representing underserved/underrepresented.
They will start their three-year term on January 1, 2015. Contact information can be found on the Library Support and Development Services webpage<http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/LSTAcouncilmem.aspx>.

Oregon Book Awards Promotion to Public Libraries is Changing

Since 1995, the Oregon Center for the Book has worked with Literary Arts, Inc.<http://www.literary-arts.org/> to promote the Oregon Book Awards<http://www.literary-arts.org/what-we-do/oba-home/> in libraries. During the month before the Awards were presented, the Oregon Center for the Book shipped copies of the finalists' titles (which are donated by the publishers) to 25 public libraries and encouraged libraries to engage their patrons in the Oregon Book Awards through local programming.

In 2015, the Oregon Center for the Book will no longer be a program of the State Library, and thus will not ship finalists' titles to public libraries. Literary Arts may continue to ship finalists' titles to some libraries, but will likely make changes to the program. The State Library will continue to provide a communications link between Literary Arts and the library community regarding the Oregon Book Awards.

You Are Invited to a Genealogical Materials Giveaway on January 21

You are invited to the Oregon State Library Genealogical Materials Giveaway on Wednesday, January 21 from 11 am to 3 pm at the Oregon State Library in the Reference room.
The Oregon State Library is reassessing its physical collections and realigning content to more closely fit with our collection guidelines and mission. As a result, we are downsizing our extensive genealogy collection and holding a Genealogical Materials Giveaway for both Oregon libraries and genealogical organizations.

This is a unique opportunity to obtain valuable resources in great condition that will enhance your local collections. Materials being offered include an extensive collection of family histories from many states, valuable genealogical reference sets and tools, some Oregon related materials, and a collection of genealogical serials. Lists of items are being prepared and will be posted on the web at a later date.

For questions or to RSVP, contact kate.e.mcgann at state.or.us<mailto:kate.e.mcgann at state.or.us>. If you are planning to attend, we will be sure to send you links to the title lists once they become available.

Greetings, all! I hope the holidays (or is that "holidaze?") were kind to
you, and that you had a grand time ringing in the new year!

And speaking of masterful transitions (ahem), you know what really helps
ring in the new year? A brand new graphic novel review at
www.comicbooklibrarian.com! This week it's SPAWN OF MARS AND OTHER STORIES,
collecting some of the finest science fiction comics ever published. Along
with the review and the usual collection development and readers' advisory
tips, this week's post serves up a comics history lesson at no additional
charge!

Call it a belated holiday gift from me to you. ;)

Enjoy!

Message-ID: <D915C48B88F04149BE949402D1F3D925592BFDB4@MBX3.internal.thecityofnewport.net>

Do any of you have a policy I can use that covers 1) horrible (to say the least) body odor and 2) the library as a fragrance free zone.  Please don't tell me we can't ban/bar/exclude patrons from our libraries because of excessive body odor (see attached link).  I'm just wondering if any libraries have policies, or any cities have codified an ordinance that covers this issue.

Are any of your libraries fragrance free?  Policies?

As a side note: I talked to this patron and he "solved" the problem by dousing himself with AXE cologne.  I have one of the strongest stomachs known to mankind.  This guy could gag a corpse.  Patrons are complaining, staff are in a quandary as to how to proceed.  Yes, he has an apartment with a working shower - I know because I offered to purchase passes to our rec center so he could shower.  He told me he didn't need them.  I'm open to ideas.

The following new titles are available for interlibrary loan from the Oregon State Library. If you would like to request this or other materials from the Oregon State Library please use your library's established interlibrary loan process (e.g. OCLC or ALA request form).  Otherwise, send your full name, the name of your library, complete title information, shipping address, and a phone number to the document delivery department at library.request at state.or.us<mailto:library.request at state.or.us> or (fax) 503-588-7119. Items will be checked out to your library, not to you personally, for 4 weeks (print materials) or 2 weeks (videos). Materials will be delivered via mail or Orbis Cascade Alliance Courier, and you may return them the same way. Normally a single copy is purchased and is loaned on a first-come-first-serve basis. You may be put on a hold list for several weeks. Thank you for your patience.

Most library staff are able to use their library's interlibrary loan service to borrow professional development material. However, if you do not have access to these services or are not currently affiliated with a library, please contact me (katie.anderson at state.or.us<mailto:katie.anderson at state.or.us>) to discuss alternative options for borrowing the material.

Mathew Hamilton and Dara Hanke Schmidt. (2015). Make It Here: Inciting Creativity and Innovation in Your Library. Santa Barbara, CA: Libraries Unlimited. 978-1-61069-554-1.

*This book appears to be about makerspaces for upper elementary children, 'tweens, teens, and adults.
Libraries of all sizes and resource levels are finding ways to support community innovation and creativity through maker programming-and successful programs don't require dedicating an entire area of the library to makerspace activities or sophisticated technologies such as 3D printers. Make It Here: Inciting Creativity and Innovation in Your Library provides a complete, step-by-step guide for starting a makerspace program at your library and follows through with instructions for operation and building on your success.

This book takes you step-by-step through starting your maker program-from finding the right "makerspace mix," making a plan, and working with staff to establishing funding and support, launching your makerspace, and evaluating and refining your programs. The authors provide guidance based on their personal experiences in creating and developing maker programs in their libraries as well as feedback and lessons learned from library makers across the country. You'll see how easy it can be to bring their ideas to life in ways that will empower your community, and be encouraged to be bold and think outside of the box when imagining the possibilities.

One might be able to word the fragrance policy along the lines of, "odor
that interferes with other patrons' use of the library" or something
along those lines. That would cover both personal hygiene and overuse of
cologne or perfume. The Free Library of Philadelphia had wording similar
to this in the Standards of Acceptable Behavior when I worked there --
I'm trying to run down the actual wording.
 
I think actually going "fragrance free" in the way that it usually
means -- no perfumed products at all -- would likely be prohibitive in a
public building. I don't think it could be enforced. But odor such that
it causes a nuisance to others might be enforceable.

We don't have anything regarding fragrances, but we do have a line in
our Code of Conduct about personal hygiene:

"While on library properties, you may not ... Disturb other library
patrons or staff through extremely poor personal hygiene."

Fortunately, I've never had to enforce the policy in Hood River, but
there was one instance at North Bend where we had to eject somebody
because she smelled so much of cat urine that nobody could be around
here, or even use a chair after she'd been in it. Gary and I felt kind
of horrible about having to do it, as these issues often go hand-in-hand
with poverty, but she was really disrupting others' use of the library.

Our full Code of Conduct is here:
http://www.hoodriverlibrary.org/files/policies/Code%20of%20conduct.pdf

It seems like there may be dragons in the "fragrance free zone" thing,
though. Senses of smell are so subjective. It seems like you'd have to
word it in such a way to as to capture AXE guy and not, say, a guy who
wears a type of cologne that some people happen find distasteful.

Cheers!
Buzzy

Fragrance-free environments are becoming more mainstream, and from my

Our Code of Conduct line on that subject reads:

"While on library properties, you may not ...

.         create a disruptive scent in the library such as from strong body
odor, personal care product, or personal belongings."

 

"Personal care product" helps address cases when patrons come in wafting a
scent or actually spray themselves with a deoderant product or perfume while
in the library. 

 "Personal belongings" covers everything from cat-sprayed backpacks &
clothing, to hot food, incense & stink bombs.

 

It is subjective but our general guidelines are:

.         Scent easily detectable from 5+ feet away.

.         Scent remains present in area several minutes after individual has
left.

When two or more staff confirm a scent meets either/both conditions,
enforcement is warranted.

 

It's still always awkward but it helps to explain

a)      that to create the broadest possible welcoming space, the library
needs to maintain a neutral atmosphere, 

b)      that includes control not only of noise but air quality in and
around our buildings because quite a few library users have allergies,
chemical sensitivities or respiratory ailments, 

c)       the policy applies to strong scents in general, not just one
person's "scent display".

was one instance at North Bend where we had to eject somebody because she
smelled so much of cat urine that nobody could be around here, or even use a
chair after she'd been in it. Gary and I felt kind of horrible about having
to do it, as these issues often go hand-in-hand with poverty, but she was
really disrupting others' use of the library.

Our full Code of Conduct is here:
http://www.hoodriverlibrary.org/files/policies/Code%20of%20conduct.pdf

It seems like there may be dragons in the "fragrance free zone" thing,
though. Senses of smell are so subjective. It seems like you'd have to word
it in such a way to as to capture AXE guy and not, say, a guy who wears a
type of cologne that some people happen find distasteful.

Cheers!

I like your (Philadelphia?s) language a lot, Kirsten. It?s definitely an improvement on what we have, which does not cover the extreme perfume scenario.

Subject: Re: [Libs-Or] Body Odor Policy

One might be able to word the fragrance policy along the lines of, "odor that interferes with other patrons' use of the library" or something along those lines. That would cover both personal hygiene and overuse of cologne or perfume. The Free Library of Philadelphia had wording similar to this in the Standards of Acceptable Behavior when I worked there -- I'm trying to run down the actual wording.

I think actually going "fragrance free" in the way that it usually means -- no perfumed products at all -- would likely be prohibitive in a public building. I don't think it could be enforced. But odor such that it causes a nuisance to others might be enforceable.

Hi Ted,

Canby's Behavior Rules Policy addresses disruptive body odor.  Our policy is attached-see item 21.

We do currently have an exclusion on file for a patron with disruptive body odor.  The individual's body order disrupted others and also permeated the books she checked out.  When the odorous materials were returned to the library, they had to be discarded-and the rest of the bookdrop had to be quarantined while it "aired out."  Canby's previous director met with the patron to point out the behavior and explain the policy, giving the patron an opportunity to address the issue.  The disruptive body odor continued, so the patron was presented with an exclusion notice and asked to sign it.  Although the exclusion notice threatens a police response if the patron returns to the library, staff have been trained to remind the patron of the exclusion and escort her to the door, instead of involving the police.  However, to my knowledge the patron has not returned to the library.

Hope this helps,
Melissa

Description
At the Craighead County Jonesboro Public Library in Arkansas, Bizzle and his colleagues defied common practices by using creative risk-taking in marketing and outreach to transform their library into a dynamic institution that continues to grow and thrive. Here they recount their story, sharing techniques for success alongside a provocative marketing philosophy that will spur libraries to move beyond their comfort zone. Topics include the importance of branding, dynamic web sites and social media, stakeholder engagement, and marketing campaigns.

Message-ID: <AFD6198E8BB9FC43B8A16EAA9E7BDDB754C0A679@WPORGEXCL02.ENTSS.OR.GOV>


The State Historic Preservation Office is offering grants for work on historic properties and for archaeology projects. The annual grants fund up to $20,000 in matching funds for preservation projects.

The Preserving Oregon Grant can fund preservation of historic buildings listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Work may include non-maintenance preservation like window repair, roof work, foundation projects, and plumbing and electrical needs. It can also fund significant work contributing toward identifying, preserving and/or interpreting archaeological sites.

The Diamonds in the Rough grants help restore or reconstruct the facades of buildings that have been heavily altered over the years. The grant's purpose is to return the buildings to their historic appearance and potentially qualify them for historic register designation (local or national).

Preservation office staff is happy to talk with applicants about potential grant projects and review applications. There will be grant workshops on project planning and grant writing. A two-hour workshop will be in Salem on Feb. 3. A one-hour webinar will be available on Feb. 5. To learn more about the grants and workshops visit www.oregonheritage.org or contact Kuri Gill at Kuri.Gill at oregon.gov or 503-986-0685.

Hello Libs-OR,



Attached you will find the LSTA-funded report Reaching Spanish-language
Speakers Outside of the Library, the consultant's narrative of the findings
of a series of focus groups and surveys to determine the needs of Spanish
speakers in three Oregon communities.



Partial findings of this study were previously presented by former
Statewide Digital Reference Service Coordinator Caleb Tucker-Raymond and
consultant Yolanda Cuesta at the 2012 OLA Conference in the session Reaching
SpanishSpeaking Patrons Online
<http://nwcentral.org/reaching-spanish-speaking-patrons-online-ola-2012>.



A big thank you to all who worked on gathering the data for this report.


Please let me know if you have any questions,

Lead From Any Position


Are you looking to develop your leadership skills to benefit your library?
Your community?  Your professional association? Your career?  The Oregon
Library Association is offering a full day leadership training at the 2015
OLA Conference in Eugene -- Leading From Any Position: Creating Learning
Libraries in Five Easy Lessons -- that you can register for now. This
preconference is being planned by the OLA Leadership Task Force. OLA is
committed to supporting the building of leadership skills in its members.
The preconference is open to all library workers.

Becky Schreiber and John Shannon, facilitators of the well regarded PNLA
Leads! Leadership Institute, will guide participants in exploring
leadership from all positions in libraries. Their results have been
recognized by library staff who embrace the concepts and implement the
disciplines of Peter Senge?s Learning Organizations. This preconference
will examine innovative ideas and provide support for participants? efforts
to lead in our librarie and beyond.

What can a leadership training do for you? Read this testimony and more
<https://ola.memberclicks.net/leadership-testimonials?servId=2863> on OLA?s
Leadership Taskforce webpages.


[image: testimony.jpg]Angela Weyrens, Multnomah County Library

?Although it has been close to 8 years since I participated in the PNLA
Leadership Institute, I carry the talisman of the self-awareness and
confidence I started to build there with me every day. Becky Schreiber and
John Shannon were amazing guides on the road to successful leadership. They
didn't care about my official position or level of education- only that I
had the potential to help shape the future of libraries and I was willing
to participate in some deep and painful reflection to do so. They helped to
direct my passion for our institution down a leadership path. I am the
leader I am in part because they helped me see who and what I could be.?

In OLA?s experiential preconference, we will:

   -

   Explore the concepts of Leading from Any Position; to take initiative
   and garner influence regardless of organizational authority
   -

   Practice practical applications of Peter Senge?s five learning
   disciplines
   -

   Apply the disciplines to each participant?s unique situation
   -

   Plan strategies for using the concepts to create a collaborative culture
   -

   Experience the fun of creating together, treating ambiguity as an
   opportunity for group innovation


For more information about the preconference, including the agenda, visit OLA?s
Leadership Taskforce webpage <http://www.olaweb.org/leadership-taskforce>.

Ted, this matter was adjudicated back in the 1990s in Kreimer v. Bureau of
Police in Morristown, NJ related to the rules of behavior of the Morristown
Public Library.  The courts held that libraries can, indeed have rules
about offensive body odor. I would add that they should be applied
even-handedly to the guy who smells like a latrine and the matron who is
doused in too much perfume.  There is a bit more info on the Kreimer case
<http://www.librarylaw.com/Behaviorcases.html> on Mary Minnow's library law
site, as well as other good info on the case law that applies to library
behavior rules.

As you can imagine, we deal with this regularly at MCL.  Our behavior rules
say:

*Any person who violates rules 24 and 25 while in or on library premises
will be excluded from the premises until the problem is corrected.*

24. Entering library buildings with bare feet or a bare chest.

25. Disturbing others because of offensive body odor.
Here at MCL we keep a handout ready that we can give patrons we have to
exclude for this reason.  It has information about free resources where
they can bathe and get clean clothes. I don't know what you have available
in Newport but if you have such resources it provides compassionate way to
deal with this type of situation.  That said, we occasionally have someone
who can't or won't clean up, and in those cases you do not have to readmit
them.

Hang in there!

OITP releases report exploring policy implications of 3D printing

Posted by: Charles Wapner
<http://www.districtdispatch.org/author/cwapner/> January
6, 2015 in Intellectual Freedom
<http://www.districtdispatch.org/category/intellectual-freedom/>, OITP
<http://www.districtdispatch.org/category/oitp/>

3D printers can do incredible things ? from creating food, to rendering
human organs, to building spare parts for the International Space Station.
A small but growing number of libraries make 3D printers available as a
library service. Library 3D printers may not be able to make you a pizza
(yes, that?s possible) or operate in zero gravity, but they are being used
to do some pretty amazing things in their own right. Library users are
building functioning prosthetic limbs, creating product prototypes and
making educational models for use in classwork.

While 3D printing technology is advancing at a meteoric pace, policymakers
are just beginning to develop frameworks for its use. This presents the
library community with an exciting opportunity?as providers of 3D printing
services to the public, we can begin to shape the policy that coalesces
around this technology in the years to come.

To advance this work, ALA?s Office for Information Technology Policy (OITP)
today released ?Progress in the Making: 3D Printing Policy Considerations
through the Library Lens
<http://www.ala.org/offices/sites/ala.org.offices/files/content/3D%20Library%20Policy-ALA%20OITP%20Perspectives-2015Jan06.pdf>,?
a report that examines numerous policy implications of 3D printing,
including those related to intellectual property, intellectual freedom and
product liability. The report seeks to provide library professionals with
the knowledge they need to craft 3D printer user policies that minimize
liability risks while encouraging users to innovate, learn and have fun.

The report states:

?As this technology continues to take off, library staff should continue to
encourage patrons to harness it to provide innovative health care
solutions, launch business ventures and engage in creative learning. In
order to do so, library staff must have a clear understanding of basic 3D
printer mechanics; the current and potential future uses of 3D printers
inside and outside of library walls; and the economic and public policy
considerations regarding 3D printing.?

ALA?s Office for Intellectual Freedom <http://www.ala.org/offices/oif>
contributed a piece to the report entitled, ?Intellectual Freedom and
Library Values,? which offers guidance to library professionals seeking to
craft a 3D printer acceptable use policy that accords with the fundamental
library value of free expression. Additionally, Tomas A. Lipinski, dean and
professor at University of Wisconsin?Milwaukee?s School of Information,
provides a sample warning notice that libraries may use with patrons to
demonstrate awareness of the legal issues involved in the use of 3D
printing technologies in libraries.

The report was released as part of the OITP Perspectives series
<http://www.ala.org/offices/oitp/publications/oitpperspectives> of short
publications that discuss and analyze specialized policy topics. It is the
second publication in ALA?s ?Progress in the Making? series, an effort to
elucidate the policy implications of 3D printing in the library context.
The first document was a tip sheet
<http://www.ala.org/offices/sites/ala.org.offices/files/content/3d_printing_tipsheet_version_9_Final.pdf>
jointly released by OITP, the Public Library Association and United for
Libraries.

Subject: [Libs-Or] Materials offering of genealogy materials at State Library
Message-ID: <C88E49F2060F504C96A2B582A86E06CA52ACD9E1@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local>

We have had some questions about the offering we will be doing at the State Library on January 21st so here is clarification in case you have questions. Please let me know if you need more information or have questions. We are asking libraries and genealogy societies to sign up in advance with Kate McGann kate.e.mcgann at state.or.us<mailto:kate.e.mcgann at state.or.us>


The Willamette Valley Genealogical Society (WVGS) has been housing selected genealogical resources at the Genealogical Resources Center (GRC) at the Oregon State Library (OSL) through a partnership that began in 1987.  These materials were purchased and acquired by WVGS.  They are WVGS materials and will be moved to the WVGS new location which is expected to be the Salem Public Library. The partnership between the State Library and WVGS has ended, although the State Library will store the WVGS materials until May 2015. Genealogy materials added to the Oregon State Library collection prior to 1987 that meet established collection development guidelines will remain in the State Library collection. Materials that are housed at OSL but belong to other organizations will not be removed from the collection. Materials that do not meet the mission of the Collections of the Oregon State Library will be weeded from the collection, which is standard practice with library materials.  Weeded items will follow the OSL collection disposal process and stipulations in the Memorandum of Understanding between the Oregon State Library and the Willamette Valley Genealogical Society.  Disposition of these genealogy materials is being coordinated with WVGS and the genealogical community in Oregon.  Materials are being offered to genealogy organizations and other libraries.  If you have questions about the material offering process please contact Kate McGann at kate.e.mcgann at state.or.us<mailto:kate.e.mcgann at state.or.us>.

Subject: [Libs-Or] Nominate someone for the OYEA! award
Message-ID: <9049F7CCC2A8C44F9383978879877638209CAAE2@WCCLSEXC10.wccls.lib.or.us>

Hello everyone,

It's that time of year to think about the special person who serves teens in your library.  The Oregon Young Adult Network is looking for candidates for our annual OYEA!  (OYAN You're Excellent Award).   It could be a librarian, it could be a teen volunteer, or it could be a staff member or regular volunteer who works with teens.  It could even be a program or initiative that has served teens in your area particularly well.  We are particularly interested in testimony from your local teens.  A letter or note from a teen speaks volumes about how important your service to them is, so their input is significant.

WHO*:  An individual, library, organization, program, or initiative that has made a positive and significant contribution to teens in libraries in the state of Oregon may be given the award. Eligibility requirements are as follows:
1.    The individual, library, or organization shall reside or operate principally in Oregon.
2.    Only living persons may be considered for the award.
3.    If a program or initiative is being nominated, it must have occurred within the previous or current year of nomination.
*Preference shall be given to nominees who are supported by a letter of recommendation written and submitted by a teen.


Past winners and all the details of the award are on the OYAN website here: http://www.olaweb.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=211.

The winner will get a plaque and a donation up to $100 for their library or service that they provide to teens.

Please submit the nomination materials to me before March 15th  by email or by regular mail at:

Mark Richardson
Young Adult Librarian
Cedar Mill Library
12505 NW Cornell Rd., Suite # 13
Portland, OR 97229

Or by email at  markr at wccls.org<mailto:markr at wccls.org>


Nominations shall include the following information:
1.    Nominee's name
2.    Nominee's contact information
3.    Description of the nominee's positive and significant contributions to teens in libraries in the State Of Oregon
4.    Any supporting letters, particularly from teens.

Attention library staff working with your regional Early Learning Hub!

The State Library and OLA's Children's Services Division are talking about how we can better support public libraries working with their regional Early Learning Hub<http://oregonearlylearning.com/other-priorities/community-based-coordinators-of-early-learning-services-hubs/>. To get started, we need a little information from libraries. I created an online survey to collection that information and sent the link to the survey to all public library directors. Below is the email that I sent to your library director.

If you are working with your regional Early Learning Hub, I recommend you ask your library director about the email they received (see below) and work with them to decide which one person from your library should complete the survey.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Katie

Email subject: [PL-Directors] Libraries and Early Learning Hubs: information needed by 2/1

Dear Public Library Directors,

The State Library and OLA's Children's Services Division are talking about how we can better support public libraries working with their regional Early Learning Hub<http://oregonearlylearning.com/other-priorities/community-based-coordinators-of-early-learning-services-hubs/>. To get started, we need a little information from libraries.

Please have one person at your library complete this online survey by February 1, 2015: [URL to survey was sent to library directors only to ensure one person at each library completes the survey.]

If your library is not working with your Early Learning Hub, the survey will take you less than 5 minutes to complete because you will only have to answer two questions.

If your library is working with your Early Learning Hub, the survey will take you at least 10 minutes to complete. Most are multiple choice questions so shouldn't take you much time, but there are five optional open-ended questions at the end that will take you as much or as little time as you choose to spend on them.

I will be sending an email out on the kids-lib, OYAN, and libs-or listservs to let your staff know you have the link to this survey.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you,
Katie

The following new titles are available for interlibrary loan from the Oregon State Library. If you would like to request this or other materials from the Oregon State Library please use your library's established interlibrary loan process (e.g. OCLC or ALA request form).  Otherwise, send your full name, the name of your library, complete title information, shipping address, and a phone number to the document delivery department at library.request at state.or.us<mailto:library.request at state.or.us> or (fax) 503-588-7119. Items will be checked out to your library, not to you personally, for 4 weeks (print materials) or 2 weeks (videos). Materials will be delivered via mail or Orbis Cascade Alliance Courier, and you may return them the same way. Normally a single copy is purchased and is loaned on a first-come-first-serve basis. You may be put on a hold list for several weeks. Thank you for your patience.
Most library staff are able to use their library's interlibrary loan service to borrow professional development material. However, if you do not have access to these services or are not currently affiliated with a library, please contact me (katie.anderson at state.or.us<mailto:katie.anderson at state.or.us>) to discuss alternative options for borrowing the material.

Burke, John J. (2014). Makerspaces: A Practical Guide for Librarians. Boulder, CO: Rowman &Littlefield. 978-1-4422-2967-9.

*This book appears to be about makerspaces for adults, teens, 'tweens, and upper elementary children.

A "makerspace" is an area in a library where users can use tools and equipment to design, build, and create all sorts of different things. It may be a dedicated room or a multipurpose space in which a collection of raw materials and resources can be utilized as desired. Projects range from prototyping product designs with 3D printers, to programming robots, to creating art out of recycled items.

This practical guide will help librarians

  *   develop, budget for, and implement makerspaces;
  *   write grant proposals for funding;
  *   and understand the mindset behind the maker movement in order to meet patron needs.
Makerspaces: A Practical Guide for Librarians also includes useful case studies, descriptions of equipment and new technologies, and models for planning and assessing projects.

(book description)

And don't forget these other newish books about makerspaces and STEM:

Colleagues,

I have hesitated to throw cold water on the 3D printing hype, and I've
waited for some expressions of skepticism.  I've not seen it yet, so:

Grant Will Connect Early Learning Services of Museums and Libraries with Medical Community

Reach Out and Read?s New Project is a Prescription for Success

Washington, DC?With funding from the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), Reach Out and Read will develop and launch Prescription for Success, a year-long project beginning in 2015 aimed at helping more families benefit from museum and library services that foster literacy development in young children. As a national nonprofit organization comprised of doctors and nurses who encourage family reading habits, Reach Out and Read has deep and broad relationships within the medical community. Prescription for Success will leverage these connections to explore new ways doctors and their staff can collaborate with museums and libraries.

During the first six months of the project, Reach Out and Read will survey and document current state and local partnerships between Reach Out and Read and libraries and museums, and create an online toolkit of best literacy practices. This toolkit will serve as a valuable resource for medical clinics, libraries, and museums. During the second half of the project, Reach Out and Read will facilitate and further develop statewide library and museum collaborations in Colorado, Connecticut, and South Carolina.

?We are grateful for this new support from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and look forward to collaborating on our Prescription for Success project,? said Reach Out and Read Executive Director Brian Gallagher. ?We are confident that the partnership between Reach Out and Read doctors and staff, and museum and library leadership, will lead to a cohesive delivery of early education services for families. By reading together more often, and leveraging community resources, parents will help children build the early language skills needed for academic success.?

?All too often, children who enter kindergarten behind their peers never catch up, and they are at a much greater risk of failing in school. In order to bring about change, all sectors of communities need to focus on this problem,? said Maura Marx, IMLS Deputy Director for Library Services. ?Prescription for Success brings together two sectors that can have a profound impact on the lives of young children, and we are excited to be supporting this important work.?

About Reach Out and Read
Reach Out and Read is the evidence-based, national nonprofit organization that promotes early brain development, literacy, and school readiness by giving new books to children and advice to parents about the importance of reading aloud at regular pediatric checkups. Nationwide, Reach Out and Read's 20,000 doctors and nurses serve 4 million children annually at 5,000 hospitals, health centers, and clinics in all 50 states, with a focus on serving families in low-income communities. For more information, please visit www.reachoutandread.org<http://www.idevmail.net/link.aspx?l=1&d=73&mid=333802&m=2464>.

For scheduling, the Seaside Public Library uses Outlook Calendar upon receipt of an autographed application.
It is backed-up by an over-sized, hand-lettered calendar which is kept at the circulation desk.
The desk calendar is updated monthly.
This system is far from ideal as we have two distinct meeting spaces.

Not even an eagle's eye can prevent the occasional double-booking.
I have made more "operator errors" than I care to admit, including one for the first month of the new year.
We, too, would be interested in booking software.

I also use a Google Calendar.  Teachers (I work in a high school library) can look and see what's available and then they fill out a form that is sent to me and I input the requests into the calendar.  I have one calendar for the computer labs and one for library space.    It has worked really well for me.

We use Google Calendar. It works pretty well for us. It also allows us to embed a calendar on our meeting room page so that people trying to book the room can see when it's busy.

Message-ID: <D546988C0729814284EDEC294C08741D52D47D1F@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local>

The following two-part webinar/series is being for free in February:

Title: Project Management 101: Planning Your Project and Key Elements of a Project Plan
Date/Time: February 5 and 11, 2015, 11 am PST

Produced by the Coalition to Advance Learning in Archives, Libraries, and Museums
Registration Info: https://oclc.webex.com/oclc/onstage/g.php?PRID=8ae72edaaa3bc1b1b2deca2e5c8451e8

Join your colleagues from archives, libraries and museums for a two-part, interactive learning webinar that will introduce the fundamentals of project management: planning a project. All of our fields struggle with unstable budgets and dynamic technology, so learning to think and act in terms of projects is critical-it can be the difference between turning an idea into a successful, resourced initiative or not. Led by representatives from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, the webinars will focus on the key elements of a project plan: the idea, the audiences, funding options, a work plan, an evaluation, and more. We will also discuss how to critically examine your project ideas, asking, Is it fundable? Valuable? Sustainable? And if not, what could you do differently? While learning these fundamentals, you will also benefit from the insights and experiences shared by your fellow participants from across archives, library, and museum institutions.

Presenters and Moderators
Robert Horton, Associate deputy director, IMLS
Sarah Fuller, Program specialist, IMLS

February 5     Key Elements of a Project Plan

This session will describe how careful planning leads to more successful projects. We will cover how to develop an idea, define your audience, look at funding options, do an environmental scan, assess your resource capacity and needs, and develop a project scope and schedule for implementation. Attendees will be invited to use the two weeks between webinars to outline a project idea based on these key principles. Submitted project plans will be reviewed by webinar moderators with individual feedback provided for each submission.

February 19   Evaluating Your Project Plan

In this highly interactive second session, we will use sample project ideas and case studies to look at how we can assess the strength of a project plan before it is implemented. We will also discuss other project management resources and where to learn more about the topic.

How Will I Benefit?

After participating in this two-part webinar, attendees will be better able to:
? Why project management is a critical skill
? What it takes to turn an idea into a fundable project
? Where to learn more about project management
? How to evaluate staff and institutional capacities to manage a project

Who Should Attend

This topic is relevant to all organizational roles: you may be currently managing or soon will be managing a project, or you may be a contributor to a current or future project.


Cheers,
Darci

CHICAGO ? The American Library Association (ALA) Intellectual Freedom Round
Table <http://www.ala.org/ifrt> (IFRT) is seeking nominations for its 2015
Gerald Hodges Intellectual Freedom Chapter Relations Award. The Gerald
Hodges Intellectual Freedom Chapter Relations Award recognizes an
intellectual freedom focused organization that has developed a strong
multi-year, ongoing program or a single, one-year project that exemplifies
support for intellectual freedom, patron confidentiality and
anti-censorship efforts. The award consists of $1,000 and a citation. *The
deadline for nominations has been extended to Friday, Feb. 13.*

The award is named after Gerald Hodges, who joined the ALA staff in 1989 as
director of membership services and the Chapter Relations Office
<http://www.ala.org/offices/cro>. Hodges was the associate director of
communications and marketing at his death in 2006, but intellectual freedom
and chapter relations were still his passions. A charter member of the ALA
Legacy Society <http://www.ala.org/plannedgiving/ala-legacy-society>, he
willed a portion of his estate to support ALA's intellectual freedom
efforts. Memorial contributions in recognition of Hodges came from many
friends, colleagues and ALA chapters following the establishment of the
Gerald Hodges Fund.

The Hodges nomination form
<http://www.ala.org/ifrt/sites/ala.org.ifrt/files/content/IFRT%20Hodges%20Award%20Nomination%20Form.pdf>is
available on the ALA website. Nominations and supporting evidence should be

The Intellectual Freedom Round Table (IFRT) provides a forum for the
discussion of activities, programs and problems in intellectual freedom of
libraries and librarians; serves as a channel of communications on
intellectual freedom matters; promotes a greater opportunity for
involvement among the members of the ALA in defense of intellectual
freedom; promotes a greater feeling of responsibility in the implementation
of ALA policies on intellectual freedom.

Can you tell me your policy on Wi-Fi? My City Administrator  is not supportive of it and I need to convince him we need it. Something besides "All the other libraries have it!"

These are his concerns :

  1.   Which other libraries around us on a regional basis allow WIFI?   (Definitely ask Junction City, Brownsville, Lebanon, Monroe, & Philomath)
  2.  Is the WIFI supplied for the general City facilities, or just the Library?
  3.  What kind of safeguards do they have in place to protect WIFI?
     *   Is there a specific program that they have?  If so, what is it,  and do they remember what it costs?
  4.  Is it password protected?  Is the password changed on a regular basis?  How often?
  5.  Do they have their patrons sign a waiver, or do they have something set up as a policy that a patron would click on that is similar to a waiver?  (Think about when you are in a hotel, and you have to click a box that says yes, I know I'm not protected, and yes, I know other people can see my data, etc., etc.)
  6.  Have they ever had a hacker get past the system?
  7.  Have they had any complaints?
  8.  Do they shut down the WIFI at the end of the business day?

Thanks

This is a concern within CCRLS.  There are just a few members without, some
due to city resistance, and I'd like to see that change.  One of my points
of argument in favor of providing the service will be the new OLA Public
Library standards. It is more or less an expectation.

 

Some of our members get Wi-Fi from the city. We also have some member
libraries who are having Wi-Fi donated by local providers as a PR and public
service gesture. I believe on pays for this type of connection.  The nice
part about the unique ISP service is that it removes all the security and
management issues from the library network.

 

We have found a Wi-Fi access device called UniFi that we're attaching to the
provider's modem that will provide a patron agreement starting page and
collect stats.

 

Some do shut down the service at night.  That's a local choice.


Hope this helps.

Message-ID: <C88E49F2060F504C96A2B582A86E06CA52ACF31C@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local>

I apologize for the cross-posting but I think this needs to be widely distributed:

Answerland<http://answerland.org/>, Oregon's statewide virtual reference service which lets anyone connect to a librarian by live chat, email or text messaging, will be transitioning from Multnomah County Library<http://multcolib.org/> to Oregon State Library<http://www.oregon.gov/osl> in July of 2015.

The transition team is made up of Darci Hanning (Technology Development Consultant for Library Support and Development Services at Oregon State Library), Rachael Short (Answerland Coordinator), and Emily Papagni (Answerland Support Librarian). The team enjoys the guidance of the Answerland Advisory Board<https://www.answerland.org/advisory-board>.

The transition team will be undertaking a software selection process for vendor-hosted virtual reference software. A vendor-hosted platform will be more affordable and require less maintenance by staff than the current software. It should also allow the service to keep up-to-date with transitions in technology without additional outlays of investment. Training on the new software will be organized by Answerland staff, and is planned to begin in May.

We plan to continue all existing services of Answerland: chat, email, text, and 24/7 backup service. We will communicate regularly to keep you up to date. A transition page is in place at https://www.answerland.org/transition

Since 2003 Answerland has been Oregon's collaborative virtual reference service. The service is staffed by 48 number of partner libraries and by volunteers, and answers an average of 35,000 questions by live chat, email and text messaging annually.

Answerland is funded by the Institute of Museum and Library Services through the Library Services and Technology Act, administered by the Oregon State Library. The fiscal agent for the program since its inception in 2003 has been Multnomah County Library. The Oregon State Library Board of Trustees met on December 5 and voted unanimously in support of moving Answerland from Multnomah County Library to the Oregon State Library.

If you have questions about the transition, please contact Rachael Short (rachaels at multco.us), the Answerland Service Coordinator.

Please also feel free to call or e-mail me if you have questions, marykay.dahlgreen at state.or.us<mailto:marykay.dahlgreen at state.or.us> 503-378-4367

Hey all you gals and guys in library manager land in the Portland metro area (whether permanently or just driving through) or willing to drive to the Portland metro area (phew, long intro):

Please join us for the first Coffee Connection of the new year at  Jim and Patty's Coffee<http://jimandpattys.com/> in Beaverton (4130 SW 117th in Beaverton....at the corner of 117th and Canyon Road). We'll gather on Friday, January 23, from 8-10 a.m. for good conversation about shared concerns. It's a great way to ask questions, share news, and get energized (caffeine, right?). We always have a good time and learn a lot about each other and each other's libraries.

Looking forward to seeing you!

 Please forward to other interested persons.

The 9th annual ILAGO Information Literacy Summit will be held May 16, 2015
at Columbia Gorge Community College's Hood River Campus. The theme for this
year's IL Summit is Accelerated Learning, but we invite a variety of
presentations related to information literacy.

Oregon is implementing accelerated learning programs across the state,
which enable high school students to earn college credit for courses that
they take in a K-12 setting through partnerships with credit-granting
community colleges and 4-year institutions. Examples include the Eastern
Promise collaboration between colleges and school districts in rural parts
of the state; and the Challenge and Senior Inquiry programs at Portland
State University that serve the metro area.

We are particularly interested in proposals for presentations that help us
understand the implications of accelerated learning for librarians and for
students acquiring information literacy skills, such as:

   - Perspectives of school librarians serving high school students
   enrolled in college classes
   - Impact of accelerated learning on public librarians
   - Partnerships between college/university libraries and accelerated
   learning programs
   - Insight on the new landscape of high school
   - Best practices for providing equivalent library resources and services
   to K-12 students
   - Success stories of students in accelerated programs and beyond
   - Other information literacy topics are welcome as well!

The Summit typically has 60-80 attendees who come from many areas of
practice (higher ed, public, K-12) and are eager to hear new ideas and ways
to approach information literacy. We invite you to submit proposals for
panels, presentations, discussions on best practices, and other programs.

Programs should be designed to run for a total of 45 minutes including Q&A.

Program proposals will be accepted until Friday, March 13, 2015.

Please submit your proposals here: ILAGO IL Summit Program Proposal
<https://docs.google.com/a/mail.wou.edu/forms/d/1YeAvd7WnilBauQvX9fCdfuGGqGIj0blkGEvE3mo6aLM/viewform>

January 2015

The Libri Foundation is currently accepting applications for its 2015
BOOKS FOR CHILDREN grants.

The Libri Foundation is a nationwide non-profit organization which
donates new, quality, hardcover children's books to small, rural public
libraries throughout the United States. Since October 1990, the
Foundation has donated over $6,200,000 worth of new children's books to
more than 3,300 libraries in all 50 states.

In order to encourage and reward local support of libraries, The Libri
Foundation will match any amount of money raised by your local sponsors
from $200 to $350 on a 2-to-1 ratio. Thus, a library can receive up to
$1,050 worth of new children's books.  After a library receives a grant,
local sponsors (such as formal or informal Friends groups, civic or
social organizations, local businesses, etc.) have four months, or
longer if necessary, to raise their matching funds.

The librarian of each participating library selects the books her
library will receive from a booklist provided by the Foundation. The
600-plus fiction and nonfiction titles on the booklist reflect the very
best of children's literature published primarily in the last three
years. These titles, which are for children ages 12 and under, are
award-winners or have received starred reviews in library, literary, or
education journals. The booklist also includes a selection of classic
children's titles.

Libraries are qualified on an individual basis. In general, county
libraries should serve a population under 16,000 and town libraries
should serve a population under 10,000 (usually under 5,000). Libraries
should be in a rural area, have a limited operating budget, and an
active children's department.

Please note:  Rural is usually considered to be at least 30 miles from a 
city with a population over 40,000. Town libraries with total operating 
budgets over $150,000 and county libraries with total operating budgets 
over $450,000 are rarely given grants.

Applications are accepted from independent libraries as well as
libraries which are part of a county, regional, or cooperative library
system.

A school library may apply only if it also serves as the public library
(i.e. it is open to the everyone in the community, has some summer
hours, and there is no public library in town).

A branch library may apply if the community it is in meets the
definition of rural. If the branch library receives its funding from
its parent institution, then the parent institution's total operating
budget, not just the branch library's total operating budget, must meet
the budget guidelines.

A library that received a BOOKS FOR CHILDREN grant in 2012 or earlier is 
eligible to apply if it fulfilled all the grant requirements, including 
sending in its final report.

Application deadlines for 2015 are: (postmarked by) January 23rd and May 
1st. Grants are awarded January 31st and May 15th. If you want your
books in time for your summer reading program, please apply for a

Message-ID: <CAK0jCBEbOKV_KA6c7s2HY+rF16+SZSEEhzPqFyzhXaBggb-3Lg@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

Introductory training on Answerland, Oregon's Statewide Virtual
Reference Service (http://www.answerland.org), is scheduled for:

Tuesday, February 3, 9:00 - 4:00

OIT Main Campus Library, LRC 113 computer lab
3201 Campus Drive
Klamath Falls, OR 97601

Registration for this training will close on Tuesday, Jan. 27 or when full.

This training is for librarians who plan to take shifts staffing
Answerland's chat, e-mail, and texting service. Librarians will
receive hands-on training with Answerland's software and instruction
on techniques for communicating effectively online with patrons and
providing reference service online.

There are two ways to staff Answerland:

1 - Partner libraries: Reference staff at Oregon libraries may staff
the service as partner libraries. Librarians who do so staff the
service at their libraries.

2 - Volunteers: Anyone who has completed a reference class in the past
10 years from an ALA-accredited college or university MLS/MLIS program
or has experience providing reference service in a library may apply
to be a volunteer. Volunteers typically staff the service from home
computers. If you would like to participate in the volunteer program,
contact me for information about how to apply to be a volunteer.

Training is free, but space is limited and advance registration is
required. If you would like to attend, contact me and let me know if
you would like to staff Answerland at a partner library or as a
volunteer and which training date you would like to register for.

If you're interested in the training, but unable to attend on these
dates, please contact me to request training.

Press release - Oregon Burial Site Guide

We are loosing our warehouse space the end of July. So the boss said 
to offer the Oregon Burial Site Guide, Compiled by Dean Byrd, Stanley 
Clarke, & Janice M. Healy free. We will send a hard back copy to 
everyone for the cost of shipping and handling. Prepaid $20 post 
marked not later than 1 July 2015. Those of you with Nonprofit status 
please add your tax ID number. Any questions contact me. This book 
sold for $125 each.

This book is about where the cemeteries of Oregon are located. Not 
lists of who is buried in them. Those are only listed for the small 
sites on private property with 12 or less burials.

The book is 8.5"  X 11" X 2" 1,200 plus pages and weighs in at about 
8 lbs in the shipping carton. Fully alphabetical by county and site, 
each county is indexed, Black and White photo's for a general idea of 
what monuments are in each county,  with a state wide index in the 
back. This is a must for those researching Oregon using death 
certificates. We tried to pick up all the also known as names to the 
sites. There are about 2500 burial sites in the 36 counties of 
Oregon. This material is updated and corrected, not like the material 
from the old ODOT book that has been put up on the web. So no this is 
not on the web.

Subject: [Libs-Or] Letters About Literature Has Begun => Reading & Writing Contest for 4th - 12th Graders

[LALimage2014.png]


Letters About Literature is a national reading and writing contest sponsored by the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress (LOC) and by Oregon's equivalent at the State Library. Students write letters to any author explaining how that author's book changed their way of thinking about the world or themselves. Please help promote this program, including among homeschoolers.

The LOC asks teachers and parents to allow students to choose a book that is meaningful to them and asks students to explain *why* or *how* the book was significant to them instead of summarizing the plot. The focus of a participant's letter is to make clear the connection one has with a book.

Here's what Lynette Gottlieb, a teacher in Corvallis, had to say about the contest:
Letters about Literature was a completely positive experience for my students...importantly, some of my students who do not identify as writers, and do not generally enjoy the experience, were able to write about something meaningful to them and participate in an inclusive contest that also recognized them...the process connects them to the human experience of literature. It supports my English classroom where I give students choice about reading whenever possible and teach that literature and writing are first and foremost about communication.

There are three competition levels: Level I for 4th-6th graders, Level II for 7th-8th graders, and Level III for 9th-12th graders. Oregon's three winners - one from each competition level - will go on to compete nationally.

Entry forms and guidelines<http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/youthsvcs/aboutlit.aspx> are available online. All Level III entries must be postmarked by December 15, 2014 and Level I and Level II entries by January 15, 2015.

Last year, about 1,040 students in Oregon entered the contest, and 1 in 8 received cash prizes or bookstore gift certificates. These prizes are made possible through support from the national Center for the Book, Oregon Reading Association, and three divisions of the Oregon Library Association: Oregon Association of School Libraries, Children's Services Division, and Oregon Young Adult Network.

Thanks for passing along the information to teachers and families and encouraging them to participate.

Please note that this is likely the last year that the State Library will coordinate the program because of changes within the agency. State Library staff members are working to find a new home for Letters About Literature. However, if no organization takes it on, this could be the program's last year in Oregon.

Questions? Please ask.

Thanks,
Jen

this week's graphic novel review is an unusual one: rather than reviewing a
single title, I have put together a list of titles your library needs to
have if you're to serve those creative types! Just visit

Thanks to the folks at MCL for passing along this info from the Tax Forms Outlet Program ... not good news, I'm afraid. I would encourage those that are concerned about the cutbacks in this program to contact your Congressional representatives, and certainly encourage your upset patrons to do so as well.

Anyone attending the ALA Midwinter meeting might also want to attend this program:
Tell the IRS: Tax Forms in the Library," a session that takes place during the 2015 American Library Association (ALA) Midwinter Meeting in Chicago. The session will be held from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on Sunday, February 1, 2015, in the McCormick Place, the Chicago Convention Center, room W187.







TFOP Filing Season Update

While we had committed to waiting until next year to making changes to the Tax Forms Outlet Program, the situation has changed.  As you may be aware, IRS appropriations were significantly cut in the 2015 Omnibus Appropriations bill recently passed by Congress.  Unfortunately this puts us in a position where we have very few options.  We want to honor our commitment to you by providing some key products, but we cannot deliver nearly what we have in the past.

For this filing season, we will offer the following products:
*  Forms 1040, 1040A and 1040EZ
*  Publication 17, one reference copy for each participant (Taxpayers will be able to access Publication 17 in English and Spanish online from irs.gov/Pub17<http://irs.gov/Pub17> and, new this year, it will also be available as a free e-Pub for downloading from IRS.gov and viewing on most e-Readers and other mobile devices.)
*  Publication 4604 (EN/SP), Use the Web for IRS Tax Products & Information
*  Publication 1132, Reproducible Copies of Federal Tax Forms and Instructions
*  The TFOP Poster Package which includes:

o  Publication 1169, Need Tax Help?

o  Publication 1258, Where Should I Send This?

o  Publication 1309, Tax Forms This Way Publication

o  Publication 1725, If The Form Fits...Use It!

No additional products will be available through the TFOP Program. We will not be sending Form 8635-S, Supplement to Form 8635.

We will fill orders for Forms 1040 and 1040A with the quantities you requested on your order form earlier this year.  Because Form 1040EZ was not on this year's order form, we will send you 75% of your Form 1040 A order quantity. For example, if you ordered 3000 Form 1040 A, we will send you 2250 Form 1040EZ.  It is not necessary for you to place an order for Form 1040EZ; we will automatically ship Form 1040EZ to you once the form becomes available.

Unfortunately, we are unable to offer Instructions for Forms 1040, 1040A and 1040EZ. Your patrons can obtain copies of Instructions through:
*  IRS.gov/Forms<http://www.irs.gov/Forms-&-Pubs> - to view and download
*  IRS.gov/orderforms<http://www.irs.gov/orderforms> - to order tax products to be delivered by mail
*  1-800-829-3676<tel:1-800-829-3676> - to order tax products to be delivered by mail
The decision to reduce the number of tax products available to our TFOP partners was not made lightly.  We realize this decision is not ideal and we understand it may impact you and your customers. Please offer Publication 4604 (EN/SP) to your patrons to help guide them to tax products and information available on IRS.gov. We apologize for these late program changes.

	libraries
Message-ID: <CAGzX5PesJuV5B=bzxxTgEDyENAPJp=UsT62DWADjUnLnkYpY8A@mail.gmail.com>

Registration for the ALA Annual Conference Opens today and ASCLA wants to
make you aware of an exciting preconference on the Americans with
Disabilities Act and libraries.



Celebrating its 25th anniversary at the same time as ALA Annual, the ADA is
a monumental civil rights law that helps ensure equal access to everyone,
including people with disabilities.



Understanding the ADA is important for all types of libraries.  The
preconference session presented by the Pacific ADA Center will answer many
of the questions you have about serving people with disabilities, and even
questions you didn?t know you had!



This preconference is ideal for library staff assigned as ADA coordinator
for their library, or anyone else with an interest in the ADA.

Preconference session topics will include:



 ? An overview of the ADA ? who and what does it cover?

 ? Excellent customer service skills and appropriate terminology to use
with library     patrons with disabilities

 ? Effective communication with patrons who have vision and hearing
disabilities

 ? Accessible technology and how libraries can use it

 ? Hiring and accommodation of library staff with disabilities

 ? The basics about service animals

 ? The ADA quiz - how much do you know?

While registration may be a long time from now, this email is an invitation
for anyone interested in attending the preconference to sign up for email
updates and alerts as we get closer to the registration period.



The cutoff period between opening of registration and the decision to
cancel a preconference is short. Now that it is time to register, please
consider adding this informative preconference to you plans for Annual.



You may also let me know if you have any questions.

Best,

Message-ID: <CAL96GSmRqjk0pCL7Y-nAHb8sanxZXjSsSn40x4QSGG_abENAEA@mail.gmail.com>

*Tuesday Topic Information Projectof the OLA **Intellectual Freedom
Committee*


*Intellectual Freedom and Net Neutrality*

Providing access to information is a primary purpose of libraries and a key
principle of intellectual freedom.  Library staff promote access to
information by resisting censorship, promoting government transparency, and
reducing barriers such as the digital divide that may prevent individuals
from receiving the information they need.  In our times, an open Internet
is essential for accessing information.

Many of us have been following the political wranglings
about net neutrality carefully, as libraries have a huge stake in keeping
the playing field level for all Internet users.  This issue has been well
explained in a letter
<http://www.heraldandnews.com/members/keep-the-net-free-at-oregon-s-libraries/article_541ac7ba-7298-11e4-9913-372f9ff21e2e.html>
published
in newspapers around Oregon co-written by OLA President Candice Watkins and
Senator Ron Wyden, and in the OLA Net Neutrality Statement
<http://www.olaweb.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=500:intellectual-freedom-net-neutrality&catid=20:site-content#netneutrality>

*Updates in the Net Neutrality debate*

   - The FCC panel is expected to vote on net neutrality rules on Feb. 26th.
   - FCC Chairman Tom Wheeler recently hinted support for protecting net n
   eutrality by reclassifying Internet access under Title II of the 1934
   Communications Act.  This is the position supported by OLA, ALA, President
   Obama, and other advocates for an open Internet.
   - Opposition to this reclassification is expected to be fierce.
   Internet Service Providers, cable companies and some others are likely to
   challenge this reclassification in the Courts and through the
   Republican-led Congress.
   - The Oregon library community has access to this Net Neutrality Toolkit
   <http://www.olaweb.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=500:intellectual-freedom-net-neutrality&catid=20:site-content>
    to participate in this important conversation.

This debate is a reminder that freedom, including intellectual freedom,
requires constant vigilance.

Welcome to the next installment in a monthly series covering topics with
intellectual freedom implications for libraries of all types.  Each message
is prepared by members of OLA?s Intellectual Freedom Committee.  Look for
our message on a Tuesday each month of the academic year except
December.  Questions can be directed to the IF Committee member who sent

Greetings!

An exciting opportunity! Are you ready to MOOC? (What is a MOOC? A MOOC is a Massive Open Online Course which means that it is free to attend and open to all.)

ALA and CLA have partnered to bring library staff and supporters a MOOC on "Library Advocacy Unshushed: Values, Evidence, Action" which begins February 1st.

Register for FREE here: https://www.edx.org/course/library-advocacy-unshushed-university-torontox-la101x

>From the ALA Press Release:

The American Library Association is proud to announce its partnership with the Canadian Library Association (CLA) and the University of Toronto iSchool in offering its popular MOOC (Massively Open Online Course), entitled "Library Advocacy Unshushed: Values, Evidence, Action" beginning Feb. 1, 2015.

Wendy Newman, a senior fellow and lecturer at the Faculty of Information at the University of Toronto iSchool, will lead this six-week adaption of a popular online elective class on advocacy, offering anyone, anywhere in the world, the opportunity to learn more about advocacy for libraries and strengthening of the communities they serve.

"This MOOC takes advocacy training to the next level, reaching thousands of librarians and advocates through one course, while building on ALA's advocacy concepts and messages," said Courtney Young, ALA president. "The partnership with the University of Toronto iSchool and CLA is an exciting development for advocates and libraries in both countries - and around the world.

Previous participants described the MOOC as a breakthrough in their understanding and action planning, stating that the curriculum "showed me the value of building relationships", "made me approach our library's advocacy much differently" and "helped me see advocacy in a new light."   Over 5,200 individuals participated the last time the course was offered.

Offered through the EdX consortium, in which the University of Toronto collaborates with other leading universities, "Library Advocacy Unshushed" is now available for registration via this URL: https://www.edx.org/course/library-advocacy-unshushed-university-torontox-la101x#.VLBbWGMpcin

The course will start on Feb. 2, 2015, and ends March 23, 2015. There is no prerequisite, though basic knowledge of librarianship is recommended. Through this open form of course delivery, including videos, online discussions, quizzes, and video interviews with guest experts, participants will learn how to be powerful advocates for the values and future of libraries and librarianship. Participants should expect to commit four to five hours of study per week.

Big Talk From Small Libraries is back! And it's still FREE!

Big Talk From Small Libraries 2015 will be held on Friday, February 27, 2015 between 8:45 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. (CT) via the GoToWebinar online meeting service.

We've been listening! A comment we've heard pretty often is that so many presentations at conferences seem to be by and for librarians from larger libraries. Well, Big Talk From Small Libraries will change that. This free one-day online conference is aimed at librarians from small libraries; the smaller the better. Each of our speakers will be from a small library or directly works with small libraries.
Topics will range from technology (new tech and old tech) to programming to new roles for the library. Come for the programs on what you're dealing with now, or maybe try something new.

Everyone is welcome to register and attend, regardless of how big or small their library is, but if your library serves a few thousand people, or a few hundred, this is the day for you.

Big Talk From Small Libraries 2015 will be broadcast online using the GoToWebinar online meeting service. GoToWebinar login instructions will be e-mailed to registered attendees the day before the conference. Please see the NLC Online Sessions webpage<http://nlc.nebraska.gov/calendar/online.aspx> for detailed information about GoToWebinar, including system requirements and firewall configuration.

This conference is organized and hosted by Michael Sauers, Laura Johnson, and Christa Burns of the Nebraska Library Commission and is co-sponsored by the Association for Rural & Small Libraries.

More details will be posted @ http://nlcblogs.nebraska.gov/bigtalk/ soon!

featured our LSTA project in her blog post. Here's the link: http://blog.gale.com/i-had-no-idea-changing-how-the-library-is-viewed-one-stakeholder-at-a-time/
Among other things, my project introduces library online databases to students, policy makers, in-library patrons and lots of others.
It's easy to get people excited about our databases when the content they are finding is relevant to their lives.
I walk them through live searches on topics they care about.
I do this not just at the library, but in offices, hospitals, schools, club meetings, etc.
Getting in the door is the hard part: people think they already know all about libraries.
But once I'm there, they are amazed.
Then I get them to give me short testimonials so that other groups will say yes, too.

Digital Literacy: Public Technology Training in Libraries
Have you ever helped a library patron with a technology issue? Do you offer computer tutoring by appointment? Technology training happens every day in libraries, and every technology question presents an opportunity to teach new skills and increase digital literacy. Luckily, you don't need to be a tech expert to provide effective technology training. Attend this all-day workshop to gain practical tips, tools, and techniques to bridge the digital divide at your library and create a culture of learning around technology. Bring your ideas and issues as we discuss common barriers to learning technology and explore tactics and techniques for one-on-one technology instruction. Walk away with a customized plan to increase digital literacy in your library's community. This workshop will address key issues related to helping library patrons with technology, and will focus on how to provide better library services related to new technologies. It will combine the topics of digital literacy, public access technology, patron training, and customer service. If possible, please bring a device to this workshop (laptop, tablet, smart phone) to use during practice activities.
Register at http://www.sos.wa.gov/library/libraries/training/trainingView.aspx?event=2445&audience=state
Lunch and refreshments will be provided by WSL. Presented by Crystal Schimpf, Kixal.
WSL provides information about outside training events for your convenience only; please contact the event sponsor for the most up-to-date information and all questions about the event.

Communication and Customer Service

Message-ID: <COL131-W100D34F268907EECB5D80BFC4E0@phx.gbl>

Perhaps I missed this, but Cathy Camper, a librarian who works for Multnomah County Library has published a graphic novel "Low Riders in Space." It is an odd and light-hearted story of three characters who enter a low-rider car decorating contest, and end up...well, you know where they end up.  If you know Cathy, then a quirky story seems quite natural.
Good on you Cathy!

Subject: [Libs-Or] ALA Task Force Seeks Your Input on Equity, Diversity,
	and Inclusion
Message-ID: <CAApj32iq3R+jMTq2E-gOJjdRZEHXRRivyOqnJtrjYSr3ZRvqxA@mail.gmail.com>

Greetings!

The ALA Task Force on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion was created in the
spring of 2014 by then ALA President, Barbara Stripling.  The Task Force is
currently in the information-gathering phase.  To aid with information
gathering, it has launched a series of short surveys to be conducted at
times to coincide with the ALA Midwinter Meetings and Annual Conferences
through 2016.  These surveys are designed to help understand the culture of
the association, the profession, and our communities with respect to
equity, diversity, and inclusion.

The first survey presents the Task Force created definitions of equity,
diversity, and inclusion and asks individuals to consider ALA's current
alignment to those definitions.  The survey can be accessed at
https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/TFEDI1EMAIL and responses will be collected
through February 16, 2015.  ALA members and nonmembers are encouraged to
participate.  The final, analyzed results of the survey will be reported on
by April 2015 via the Task Force's ALA Connect community and distributed
through various ALA channels.

Please take a few minutes to answer the survey, which should take no more
than 7 minutes to complete. "Embracing and celebrating diversity, and
creating a more inclusive profession have been long-standing goals of the
American Library Association.  With your help, we hope to ensure these
values are upheld," said Task Force co-chairs Trevor A. Dawes and Martin L.
Garnar.

The ALA Task Force on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion's charge is to
develop a plan and strategic actions to build more equity, diversity, and
inclusion among our members, the field of librarianship, and our
communities.  The most important Task Force outcome is the public and
honest conversation generated by its plan and recommended actions.  The
final Task Force report will include recommendations for ensuring that a
continuing focus on equity, diversity, and inclusion is embedded throughout
the ALA organization.

Questions about the survey can be sent to the Task Force at
diversity at ala.org.  Should technical issues arise, please contact the ALA
Office for Diversity at diversity at ala.org or 800-545-2433 ext. 5048.

 Director of the Institute of Museum and Library Services
Message-ID: <C88E49F2060F504C96A2B582A86E06CA52ADDB28@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local>

Every four years the president appoints a new director of IMLS.  The position alternates between a museum professional and a library professional. Susan Hildreth had been the director since 2011 and is stepping down this month. We don't know who (or when) a new director will be appointed. Susan was the director of the Seattle Public Library, the San Francisco Public Library and State Librarian of California, in addition to other positions, I think mostly in California's bay area.

Susan has posted a farewell message  to the IMLS blog<http://blog.imls.gov/?p=5507> and I would encourage you to take a look at the work and accomplishments of IMLS under her leadership. She has been a force of nature for libraries and museums in Washington DC. I think I am most impressed by the partnerships she has forged with other federal agencies that pave the way for state libraries to partner at the state level. I have been honored to work with Susan for the past several years and I thank her for everything she has done (and I'm guessing will continue to do) for libraries in the United States.

Hello,

You may have noticed that the State Library has not announced the availability of the 2016 LSTA grant packet yet.
The LSTA Advisory Council and the Oregon State Library have been working on making changes to the state's LSTA program. The chief goal is to incorporate the outcomes and lessons learned by grants into future grant projects.  To make this possible, there are changes to the LSTA grant process and timetable.
Oregon's LSTA grant process is changing from a two-step process, with a brief and full proposal, to a one-step process.  We will continue to offer consulting, and commenting on proposal drafts. The requirements for outcome based evaluation<http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/resources/OBE/obe.aspx> continue and strengthen.  A big change is the need for projects to stick to a realistic 12 month timeline, with very limited time for extensions.


The proposed new schedule would look like this for competitive (and statewide) projects:
January 2016

LSTA grant packet announced and available electronically

Last 2 weeks in March 2016

A voluntary review group using google docs, or wiki, blog, etc for interested LSTA Council members to leave comments on electronic drafts

January to April 2016

Writing time for full proposal

Mid April 2016

Full Proposals due

Mid May 2016

LSTA Council meets - recommends full competitive proposals to OSL Board

Late May 2016

Library Development mails letter to applicants / sends Council recommendations to Board

Mid-June 2016

Board reviews and approves new competitive grants

Mid-June 2016

Send grant contracts

July 1, 2016

New grants start

September 2016

LSTA Council refines guidelines, best practice, reviews final grant reports (inc. evaluation)

June 30, 2017

Competitive grants end


We will be working with multiple year projects to cope with this change in schedule. We will also be developing methods to integrate the outcomes of grants to inform the grant guidelines.  We appreciate everyone's patience as we try to improve Oregon's LSTA program.

Please contact me with any questions or concerns.

Yours,
Ann Reed

Northwest Central is a continuing education clearinghouse created in 2005

has served as a one-stop-shop for continuing education events, webinars,
and OLA conference materials. We are currently building a new, streamlined
website that will be easier to manage and use. In addition to the new site,
we would like to form a round table to create meaningful and sustained
support for the project.



*We need 25 signatures from active or honorary OLA members in order to
submit a petition for the creation of a round table. If you are interested
in adding your name to the petition, please send an email to Gina Bacon at
gina.bacon at pcc.edu <gina.bacon at pcc.edu>.  *

If you are also interested in becoming a member of the round table, please
indicate your interest in the email.

Description
Highlighting key data services provided by the American Library Association (ACRLMetrics<http://www.acrlmetrics.com/> and PLAmetrics<http://www.plametrics.org/>), this guide illustrates how to use the data to support value, collection use, benchmarking, and other best practices. It also includes exercises that illustrate how to produce meaningful metrics and reports that can be used to demonstrate value and provide advocacy support.

Table of Contents
Available at the Publisher's web site: http://www.alastore.ala.org/detail.aspx?ID=11140



If you would like to request this or other materials from the Oregon State Library please use your library's established interlibrary loan process (e.g. OCLC or ALA request form).  Otherwise, send your full name, the name of your library, complete title information, shipping address, and a phone number to the document delivery department at library.request at state.or.us<mailto:library.request at state.or.us> or (fax) 503-588-7119. Items will be checked out to your library, not to you personally, for 4 weeks (print materials) or 2 weeks (videos). Materials will be delivered via mail or Orbis Cascade Alliance Courier, and you may return them the same way. Normally a single copy is purchased and is loaned on a first-come-first-serve basis. You may be put on a hold list for several weeks.

Most library staff are able to use their library's interlibrary loan service to borrow professional development material. However, if you do not have access to these services or are not currently affiliated with a library, please contact me<mailto:arlene.weible at state.or.us> to discuss alternative options for borrowing the material.

Subject: CSLP is excited to announce...

On behalf of the [Collaborative Summer Library Program] CSLP Board of Directors, it is my pleasure to announce that Newbery Award winning author Kate DiCamillo will be the 2015-2016 National Summer Reading Champion!

Kate worked with Digital Media Foundry to create PSA spots that libraries can use to promote summer reading, libraries and library cards.  Links will be available shortly.

Kate will be available to visit libraries for the 2016 summer reading program and is excited to be part of your local programs.  More information will be discussed at the [CSLP] Annual Meeting in April.

We are thrilled that Kate not only supports the work of libraries but is lending her voice to raise awareness about summer reading, visiting your local library, getting a library card and sharing stories.

Sincerely,
Karen

Greetings -

I was wondering if any libraries act in an official capacity as a 
communications hub for the public in the event of a disaster.  Not a 
housing shelter but more of the place for everyone who has lost phone, 
internet, etc to come and reach their families, insurance agent or 
whatever.  Thanks

Hello friends,

I am taking a class in library school called "Small and Rural Libraries."
 I have the opportunity to do an in-depth research project to study an
issue that is facing small and rural libraries.

I am interested in studying a topic that is relevant to small and rural
libraries in Oregon.  Does anyone have a suggestion of a topic that would
help me understand rural libraries in Oregon better?

thank you so much

The American Library Association is proud to announce its partnership with the Canadian Library Association (CLA) and the University of Toronto iSchool in offering its popular MOOC (Massively Open Online Course), entitled "Library Advocacy Unshushed: Values, Evidence, Action" beginning February 1, 2015.

Offered through the EdX consortium, in which the University of Toronto collaborates with other leading universities, "Library Advocacy Unshushed" is now available for registration via this URL: https://www.edx.org/course/library-advocacy-unshushed-university-torontox-la101x#.VLBbWGMpcin

The course will start on February 2, 2015, and ends March 23, 2015. There is no prerequisite, though basic knowledge of librarianship is recommended.

Colleagues,

I am sure many of you in the Portland area are excited, as I am, to welcome
ACRL to Portland this March.  The Local Arrangements committee has been
working hard to get everything ready and we could use your help for the big
event!

Please use the form below to indicate your interest in volunteering to help
with local arrangements at ACRL 2015 in Portland, March 25-28. .
Currently, we know we will need people to staff the information booth and
to host "Dinner with Colleagues" tables.

Expressing interest in either or both does not commit you to anything!
Further volunteer opportunities may emerge so if neither of those appeal
but you want to be involved, please let us know.

Not registered for the conference?  That's okay -- volunteers will receive
exhibit hall passes.

If you have any questions don't hesitate to be in touch!

Dear Colleagues,

The OLA Leadership Taskforce is exploring various ways to offer leadership
development training for all levels of library staff.  In December, the OLA
Board voted to approve that a Leadership Committee be proposed to the OLA
membership for approval. This committee will provide sustainable direction
for OLA's leadership  development efforts. As we work towards this
direction,* the Taskforce is interested in compiling a list of people
working in Oregon Libraries who have attended PNLA Leads, and/or other
Leadership Development Institutes. * If you have attended a multi-day
leadership institute (library or otherwise), please email Elaine Hirsch at
the address above and below with your name and affiliation, and the name
and year of the institute you attended.  This will be very helpful as we
explore opportunities for the membership.  If you are interested in
engaging in our planning efforts, please let me know as well.

Currently the Taskforce has organized an all-day Leadership development
preconference at the 2015 OLA Conference, Leading from Any Position:
Creating Learning Libraries in Five Easy Lessons
<https://ola.memberclicks.net/leadership-taskforce>. For more information,
please click on the Leadership link above.  We hope to see many of you
there!

Thanks,

*NEWS RELEASEOrbis Cascade Alliance and Ex Libris Complete Implementation
of a Shared Resource Management and Discovery SystemCulmination of a
two-year effort to replace local systems*

 Eugene, OR and Chicago, IL--January 22, 2015

The Orbis Cascade Alliance, a consortium of 37 North American academic
institutions known for innovative collaboration, and Ex Libris Group, a
global leader in library automation services, are pleased to announce
completion of a two-year effort to migrate Alliance members to a shared,
next-generation library management and discovery solution.  Alliance member
libraries have migrated from 37 locally hosted systems comprised of four
discovery and three ILS platforms to shared use of the cloud-based Alma
unified resource management solution and Primo discovery solution. Working
in partnership, the Alliance and Ex Libris each played critical roles in
managing the complex migration of four cohorts comprised of 6-11 libraries,
each cohort migrating over a six-month period.  Beyond migration, the
Alliance and Ex Libris worked in partnership to create a new resource
sharing solution and to develop consortial functionality that will allow
Alliance member libraries to build on their 20-year history of shared work.

"This is truly a collaborative project that could not have happened without
the support of everyone across the Alliance. Dozens of member library staff
across the northwest U.S. have been in near-constant contact with Ex Libris
colleagues based in Chicago, Boston, and Jerusalem," stated Jane Carlin,
chair of the Alliance and library director at the University of Puget
Sound.  "We now share a system and there are so many possibilities for
service, training, workflow and product knowledge and development."

"This has been a long and complex migration and huge credit is due to the
leadership, imagination, hard work and perseverance of dozens of staff
across all 37 member libraries," remarked John F. Helmer, executive
director of the Orbis Cascade Alliance. "For 20 years, we have been
exploring the potential of deep collaboration, and implementation of this
next-generation shared system is key to helping us realize our strategic
goal to 'do things once, do things together, do things the same.'"

"It has been a pleasure to work with Ex Libris on this historic
achievement.  Along the way, we often discovered new challenges and worked
in partnership on creative solutions," said Al Cornish, the Alliance shared
ILS program manager.  The Alliance and Ex Libris worked together to plan
and achieve one of the project's key objectives: a streamlined resource
sharing program based on Alma's capabilities.  "Ex Libris was a very
responsive partner throughout this effort," stated Anya Arnold, the
Alliance resource sharing program manager.  "Resource sharing has deep
roots in this consortium, with our first patron-initiated borrowing system
going live for five libraries in the early 1990's and migration to a second
platform in 2008. It is a thrill to now launch the next generation of
resource sharing serving all 37 members of the Orbis Cascade Alliance."

Matti Shem Tov, President and CEO of the Ex Libris Group, commented:
"Having all Alliance members live with Alma and Primo is a huge
accomplishment, the result of excellent teamwork and many months of
intensive efforts by all project members. This day is only the beginning.
Now that the foundation is in place, we will start witnessing the emergence
of new, innovative practices and services across the Alliance. We feel
honored to be a partner of the Alliance and we look forward to many more
years of collaborative work."

"The success of this project is a testament to the dedication, ingenuity,
and enthusiasm of so many individuals throughout the Alliance and Ex Libris
who have enjoyed a close and productive relationship for the past two
years," stated Melissa Hilbert, Ex Libris Vice President of Professional
Services North America.  "Beyond implementing new systems, we have worked
together to establish consortial implementation best practices and
recognize the extremely valuable contributions the Alliance has made in
this area."

Subject: [Libs-Or] SBOE Adopted the Oregon School Library Standards
Message-ID: <B60CC3E64AD0D941AA792F1955E3D5C35290CAAD@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local>

Yesterday the Oregon State Board of Education (SBOE) adopted the Oregon School Library Standards. How that will affect school libraries is yet to be determined. The OASL ad hoc committee that sought the adoption and OASL?s Oregon School Library Standards committee will seek more information and develop next steps. Thanks to both groups for their efforts.

OASL established a committee to write school library standards in the spring of 2010. They received a Library Services and Technology Grant from the State Library and used funds to meet to research and develop standards during the 2011-12 school year. Those standards were finalized and went online by late summer 2012. After that, the focus shifted to promoting the standards in the Oregon education committee and to getting the standards adopted by the State Board of Education. After some initial unsuccessful efforts, an ad hoc committee secured a meeting in November 2014 with members of the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) to present background information and propose the adoption. Nicole Dalton, the English Language Arts specialist, and Emily Nazarov, the ODE liaison to the SBOE, were impressed with the presentation and the standards. Nicole received approval from her supervisor to support the adoption, and Emily put it before the SBOE for a first read at their December 2014 meeting. During that meeting, Stephanie Thomas, OASL President, made a case for adopting the standards. The information was well received, and the chair of the SBOE moved the matter to the consent agenda for the January 2015 meeting. That meeting was yesterday, and as you know by now, the standards were officially adopted.

The SBOE actions taken at the January 22nd meeting should be available online soon.

Subject: [Libs-Or] SBOE Adopted the Oregon School Library Standards

Yesterday the Oregon State Board of Education (SBOE) adopted the Oregon School Library Standards. How that will affect school libraries is yet to be determined. The OASL ad hoc committee that sought the adoption and OASL?s Oregon School Library Standards committee will seek more information and develop next steps. Thanks to both groups for their efforts.

OASL established a committee to write school library standards in the spring of 2010. They received a Library Services and Technology Grant from the State Library and used funds to meet to research and develop standards during the 2011-12 school year. Those standards were finalized and went online by late summer 2012. After that, the focus shifted to promoting the standards in the Oregon education committee and to getting the standards adopted by the State Board of Education. After some initial unsuccessful efforts, an ad hoc committee secured a meeting in November 2014 with members of the Oregon Department of Education (ODE) to present background information and propose the adoption. Nicole Dalton, the English Language Arts specialist, and Emily Nazarov, the ODE liaison to the SBOE, were impressed with the presentation and the standards. Nicole received approval from her supervisor to support the adoption, and Emily put it before the SBOE for a first read at their December 2014 meeting. During that meeting, Stephanie Thomas, OASL President, made a case for adopting the standards. The information was well received, and the chair of the SBOE moved the matter to the consent agenda for the January 2015 meeting. That meeting was yesterday, and as you know by now, the standards were officially adopted.

The SBOE actions taken at the January 22nd meeting should be available online soon.

The Oregon Department of Education Board met on 1/22 and easily approved a motion to adopt the Oregon School Library Standards.  The standards committee will be meeting soon to develop next steps, but as a member of the presenting team, I am extremely excited to have the official backing and adoption from the board.  Cheers to the standards committee and presenting team!

I received a question about the schedule for the summit. We do not yet 
have the schedule set, but generally we start with refreshments between 
8:30am-9:00am, then the conference itself starts at 9:00am and lasts 
until 3:30pm or 4:00pm. We'll post the schedule and registration form on 
the ILAGO website (https://ilago.wordpress.com/oregon-il-summit-2015/) 
when they become available. In the meantime, please feel free to contact 
me directly if you have any questions about the summit.

All the best,
Tracy

Good morning all,

I'm looking for information about the hours, staff levels, and types of services offered at your reference desks. I'd love it if you could send me some quick answers to the questions below, especially those of you working in academic libraries.


*         How many hours per week is your library open?

*         How many hours per week is your reference desk open and staffed?

*         What levels of staff work at the reference desk? How many hours for each type per week? Faculty librarians, non-faculty with MLS, paraprofessionals, students, etc.

*         Anything else you want to share about the type of services offered at reference? Tiered, peer-to-peer, referral to on-call librarian, etc.

I've attached an example to illustrate my information need and will happily share the finished product with anyone interested?

Thanks so much for any help you can offer!

Hi all:
Recently we have had a plethora of people who seem to be hacking up part of their lung, sneezing juicy sneezes, and generally fitting the bill of being a health hazard. All part of building up our own immune systems, right?

Well, we are wondering if there is anything anyone out there is doing to encourage people with potentially contagious illness to stay home? We find it so ironic that people stay home from work or school and then come to the library...our sense of being flattered is often outweighed by our sense of 'ooh, ick', you know?

We have plenty of sanitizer in several locations. Anything else you guys do to help grow awareness around this particular topic?

Thanks bunches!

If you would like to try to get members of the new round table to meet at
the April conference, Liisa Sjoblom <liisas at dpls.lib.or.us> was the one who
was arranging rooms for business meetings for units.

The Mellon-funded Open Library of Humanities offers a new, extremely cost-effective
and equitable business model for journals to achieve gold open access in the humanities
sphere. Rather than concentrating the burden of payment on the individual authors
or their institution when work is accepted (as do many existing publishers), the
 OLH is supported by a consortium of libraries who all share the cost. In this way,
we can fairly pay for the labor of publishing on a not-for-profit basis while also
ensuring that anyone whose work meets the high-standards of peer review can be published
with no author fee.

Of the new partnership, Dr. Martin Paul Eve, one of the founders and academic project
directors of the OLH, said: "We are extremely pleased to be working with LYRASIS
 to reach potential library partners in the United States. We are only at the beginning
of a long journey; it takes a great deal of work to build successful, mission-driven
publishers. With the ever-growing support that we are receiving from libraries and
academics worldwide, though, the desire for a new route is clear. We greatly look
forward to working with LYRASIS and its members to build a bright, open access future
for the humanities disciplines."

"OLH is engaged in important work for humanities scholarship," said Kate Nevins,
 the Executive Director of LYRASIS. "This program provides an opportunity for libraries
to engage in a transformative model that will have a significant impact on scholarly
communications. LYRASIS welcomes the opportunity to partner with OLH and gather 
community support for their mission."

About Open Library of Humanities

The Open Library of Humanities provides a platform for open access publishing that
is sustainable, archived, non-profit, innovative, and provides reputable content
 that is respected through rigorous peer review. Since the majority of research 
in the humanities is only funded by institutional time, Article Processing Charges
to authors are not viable for these disciplines. The OLH provides an alternative
 model of Library Partnership Subsidies to fund the program through community support.

Hi Mo!

In some ways, it's all part of working with the public... That said, we have posted flu prevention information (wash your hands, if you're sick stay home, etc.) in English and Spanish on our entry doors, as well as on the doors going into all our restrooms. We've also made cleaning the counters/door handles in high traffic areas part of our regular closing procedure, as well as adding it to the things we do when it's slow during the day.

Hi all:
Recently we have had a plethora of people who seem to be hacking up part of their lung, sneezing juicy sneezes, and generally fitting the bill of being a health hazard. All part of building up our own immune systems, right? 
 
Well, we are wondering if there is anything anyone out there is doing to encourage people with potentially contagious illness to stay home? We find it so ironic that people stay home from work or school and then come to the library?our sense of being flattered is often outweighed by our sense of ?ooh, ick?, you know?
 
We have plenty of sanitizer in several locations. Anything else you guys do to help grow awareness around this particular topic?
 
Thanks bunches!
 
Mo

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
January 26, 2015

IMLS Press Contact
202-653-4799
Giuliana Bullard, gbullard at imls.gov<mailto:gbullard at imls.gov>

IMLS 2012 Public Libraries Survey Report Issued

Washington, DC?In 2012, Americans made 1.5 billion trips to public libraries in the United States?the equivalent of more than 4.1 million visits each day, according to new research by the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS). The research indicates there is still a high demand for the resources and services of the nation?s approximately 9,000 public libraries.

Today, IMLS released the report for the Public Libraries in the United States Survey: Fiscal Year 2012<http://www.idevmail.net/link.aspx?l=1&d=73&mid=333802&m=2493>, an analysis of the most comprehensive annual data collection of U.S. public library statistics. Ninety-seven percent of public libraries in the 50 states and the District of Columbia contribute data for the survey, which is now in its 26th year. The survey report provides analysis of 13 key indicators of library investments and library use, and profiles for each state<http://www.idevmail.net/link.aspx?l=2&d=73&mid=333802&m=2493>, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Policymakers and practitioners use the report findings to make informed decisions about library support and management.

Fiscal Year 2012 was marked by a stabilization of post-recession declines in revenue, staffing, visitation, and circulation at the nation?s public libraries. Measures of public library use and resources remained similar to prior year levels. While revenue has stabilized, a greater share is coming from local governments, and in FY 2012, there was a 13.2 percent increase in revenues from other sources.

Libraries are offering more public programs, including programs for children, and are seeing greater program attendance than in previous years. Public libraries are also adding more to their digital holdings, including e-books and downloadable audio and video. Spending on electronic materials has doubled since Fiscal Year 2003. Although libraries continue to provide public access computers and Internet access, use of public access computers has seen a two-year decrease of 7.4 percent. The decrease may be the result of customers? use of their own devices such as laptops, smart phones, and tablets to connect to public libraries? Wi-Fi.

?The public library is adapting to the changing needs of the American people,? said Maura Marx, Acting IMLS Director. ?The report describes shifts in funding, as well as changes in the services and programs of public libraries that reflect changes in public demand.?

She continued, ?We found positive links between investments?particularly in staffing and collections?and public library usage. When a library has more full-time staff members, it is visited more often.  When it spends more on electronic materials, it increases its per capita circulation. So, we clearly see a strong connection between investment and usage. At IMLS, we are proud to be the nation?s primary source of federal support for public libraries and to know that our investments make a real difference for these essential public institutions.?

Other highlights of the findings include:

  *   There were 1.5 billion in-person visits to public libraries across the United States, similar to FY 2011 levels. This was a 10-year increase of 10.2 percent.
  *   The public invested over $11.5 billion in revenue to public libraries. This was similar to FY 2011 levels, after adjusting for inflation. Revenue has declined after a peak in FY 2009, but is up 7.2 percent over 10 years.
  *   More than 92.6 million people attended the 4.0 million programs at public libraries. Attendance showed a 1-year increase of 5.2 percent and a 10-year increase of 54.4 percent.

Regular registration for Online Northwest closes February 6th - register today<http://onlinenorthwest.org/register/>!



The 2015 Online Northwest conference will be held on Friday, February 13th, at the CH2M Hill Alumni Center on the Oregon State University campus, Corvallis, Oregon, from 9:00 am - 4:00 pm.

REGISTER ONLINE<https://conferences.bus.oregonstate.edu/Conference/onw/registration>

Registration rates and deadlines for Online Northwest 2015 are as follows:

*         Regular registration $130 (ends February 6, 2015)

*         Onsite registration $150

Online Northwest is a conference addressing issues at the intersection of libraries, technology and culture. This year we have an exciting program that includes presentations and workshops on digital inclusion, wearable tech, library as publisher, code playgrounds, digital assets management, data visualization and more.  View the conference program at: http://onlinenorthwest.org/2015-program/



[cid:image001.png at 01D03975.4812C190]Mita Williams<http://leddy.uwindsor.ca/staff/mita-williams>, User Experience Librarian at the University of Windsor, will start off the day with her keynote presentation: Teach for America. Code for America. Librarianing for America. The motto for Code for America is "a new kind of public service".  The motto of CrisisCommons is "we help connect people to help those in need".   This talk is not going to dwell on the matter that librarians lack a good word - much less an official motto - to describe the work we do.  Instead, a case will be made for a new program to be designed to get more librarians working within more organizations in more communities.

This year's attendees will also be eligible to win exciting door prizes including: label makers, laptop gear, media players, and a Nook GlowLight E-Reader!

Message-ID: <CAApj32h1akjFdy1meHEMWLCqW8hMdE194tMRxShxtWeKTUPSAA@mail.gmail.com>

*[Reminder--please fill out this important survey from the ALA Task Force
on Equity, Diversity and Inclusion!]*


Greetings!


The ALA Task Force on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion was created in the
spring of 2014 by then ALA President, Barbara Stripling.  The Task Force is
currently in the information-gathering phase.  To aid with information
gathering, it has launched a series of short surveys to be conducted at
times to coincide with the ALA Midwinter Meetings and Annual Conferences
through 2016.  These surveys are designed to help understand the culture of
the association, the profession, and our communities with respect to
equity, diversity, and inclusion.

The first survey presents the Task Force created definitions of equity,
diversity, and inclusion and asks individuals to consider ALA's current
alignment to those definitions.



The survey can be accessed athttps://www.surveymonkey.com/s/TFEDI1EMAIL and
responses will be collected through February 16, 2015.  ALA members and
nonmembers are encouraged to participate.  The final, analyzed results of
the survey will be reported on by April 2015 via the Task Force's ALA
Connect community and distributed through various ALA channels.

Please take a few minutes to answer the survey, which should take no more
than 7 minutes to complete. "Embracing and celebrating diversity, and
creating a more inclusive profession have been long-standing goals of the
American Library Association.  With your help, we hope to ensure these
values are upheld," said Task Force co-chairs Trevor A. Dawes and Martin L.
Garnar.

The ALA Task Force on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion's charge is to
develop a plan and strategic actions to build more equity, diversity, and
inclusion among our members, the field of librarianship, and our
communities.  The most important Task Force outcome is the public and
honest conversation generated by its plan and recommended actions.  The
final Task Force report will include recommendations for ensuring that a
continuing focus on equity, diversity, and inclusion is embedded throughout
the ALA organization.

Questions about the survey can be sent to the Task Force at
diversity at ala.org.  Should technical issues arise, please contact the ALA
Office for Diversity at diversity at ala.org or 800-545-2433 ext. 5048.

Signed, TF member (REFORMA Representative)

Message-ID: <79182DEA2A9EBD459F20AD5CB90FEAA5315BA52405@Exchange.orcity.org>

Hi everyone:

I know you all are filling out those Conference forms and selecting activities and sessions like kids in candy shops. I know I can't wait! A couple of things to keep in mind while deciding how to spend your time and resources: 

1. PLD Banquet: In the spirit of the conference theme of creativity, we snagged Mark Shapiro from Laika Studios. Recently nominated for an Oscar for Best Animated Feature for The Boxtrolls, Laika is known for its innovation in stop-motion animation in films like 'Coraline'.  Mark will be bringing 'show and tell', making this event on Wednesday night, April 15th, a DO NOT MISS event. Remember, you don't have to be a member of any group to attend the PLD Banquet and this is a great way to start off your conference. We also present the OLE Award that evening, which is a ton of fun in itself. Here's the longer description-please consider signing up!

'Oregon-based LAIKA is a renowned animation studio that has inspired audiences with an unprecedented visual artistry.  Animators breathe life into meticulously hand-crafted puppets on handmade sets.  Visual effects artists seamlessly enhance performances with cutting-edge technologies. This unparalleled fusion of stop-motion and computer graphics has garnered the studio two Oscar nominations and worldwide acclaim.  In this session, Mark Shapiro will discuss the feature The Boxtrolls, using rarely seen images and timelapses.  Production puppets will be on display.'

2. PLD, with many partners, has put together a great line-up of conference sessions, everything from soup to nuts, or should I say cannabis resources to the Edge Initiative. If that's not enough to grab you...well, I'm just speechless. 

Have fun browsing and can't wait to see you there!

Best, 
Mo

VIEWS2

Hear about the University of Washington?s Valuable Initiatives in Early
Learning that Work Successfully (VIEWS2) research study that validates what
you already knew: Storytimes can provide many opportunities to help
children develop early literacy skills. Learn about ways to increase the
effectiveness of your storytimes, and daily interactions by adding simple
behaviors that will have a large impact. VIEWS2 visited CSD at the
beginning of the study, now hear about the culmination of the research, and
take home tools that will help you enrich and evaluate your storytimes.

Storytime Training and Support

Not every librarian can do every storytime that would fully meet their
community's needs. Often we need support staff and volunteers to provide
storytimes to non-English families and/or target audiences. Learn about
Multnomah County Library's storytime training program that helps staff
deliver early literacy rich storytimes. Hear about some of the continuous
challenges that these staff face, and let's talk about ways we can support
our colleagues to get the resources and support they need to serve a wider
community.

Mechanics of Summer Reading Programs

How does your library?s Summer Reading Program work?  When does it start?
When does it end?  How do kids participate?  Do you track time spent
reading or pages read? Do you have another way to track participation? Are
you trying anything new this year? What are some of your biggest challenges
that you wish you could ease?

Help your SRP peers by sharing the nuts and bolts of your Summer Reading
Program.  Do you have a super-cool game board you?d love to share?  Now is
the time to bust it out and wow your colleagues!

Registration is FREE, lunch on your own.

Thanks,


Larry Landis


The Special Collections & Archives Research Center of the Oregon State University Libraries and Press is accepting applications for its Resident Scholar Program. The program, now in its eighth year, provides research grants to scholars interested in conducting work in the Special Collections & Archives Research Center (SCARC). Stipends of $2,500 per month renewable for up to three months (for a total maximum grant award of $7,500) will be awarded to researchers whose proposals detail a compelling potential use of the materials held in the Center. Grant monies can be used for any purpose.


Historians, librarians, graduate, doctoral or post-doctoral students and independent scholars are welcome to apply. Detailed information outlining the qualifications necessary for application, as well as the selection process and the conditions under which awards will be made, is available at http://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/residentscholar.pdf. The deadline for submitting proposals is April 30, 2015.


Researchers will be expected to conduct their scholarly activities while in residence at Oregon State University. Applicants should focus their research in one of the five main collecting themes of the Special Collections & Archives Research Center: the history of Oregon State University<http://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/university-history.html>, natural resources in the Pacific Northwest<http://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/natural-resources.html>, multiculturalism in Oregon<http://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/oma/index.html>, the history of science and technology in the twentieth century<http://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/history-of-science.html> and/or rare books<http://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/rare-books.html>. Many past Resident Scholars have engaged primarily with the Ava Helen and Linus Pauling Papers<http://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/coll/pauling/index.html>, though proposals can address use of any of the SCARC collections.


Additional information on the program and profiles of past award recipients is available at the Resident Scholar homepage, http://scarc.library.oregonstate.edu/residentscholar.html.

Before we switched to LibreOffice we used to buy educational licenses of Microsoft products.  Libraries qualify for the educational discounts, even for staff computers.  I do not know how the discounts compare to government licenses.

Leah I am pretty sure all public libraries are eligible for educational
pricing from Microsoft for all our computers.  We get that for MCL but it
is our County IT purchasing folks that handle it.  There might be a state
contract you can buy off of that has educational pricing.  Not sure.  I can
probably find out next week.
