Sager ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Don Wood Date: Mon, Jun 29, 2015 at 9:36 AM Subject: [chapcoun] Charleston Library renamed for Cynthia Graham Hurd To: "chapcoun at lists.ala.org" Charleston Library renamed for Cynthia Graham Hurd by Kirsten Reach [image: cynthiahurdcloseup] Yesterday the *Charleston City Council* voted to rename the* St. Andrews Library* for librarian *Cynthia Hurd*. Hurd was the longest-serving part-time librarian in the county. ?People will look up and see her name and remember her every day,? her husband *Arthur Stephen Hurd* said to *Post and Courier*. As we wrote last week , Hurd was one of nine people lost in *Mother AME Emanuel Church*. She was the regional manager at St. Andrews, and had worked as a librarian for 31 years. The library system closed all 16 locations to honor her. ?She was kind and loving. She would bend over backwards to help you. And she was very patient,? said Hurd?s fellow librarian *Alyce Houston*. In addition to the change in the name of the library, the board of trustees at the *College of Charleston*, Hurd?s alma mater, voted to change the name of its Colonial Scholarship to the *Cynthia Graham Hurd Memorial Scholarship*. Her family is also starting the *Cynthia Graham Hurd Fund* for Reading and Literacy as a part of * Freedom School Partners *. ?The fund will ensure that children have access to books that strengthen their literacy skills and access to the support of a community that believes in them, which are values Cynthia Hurd held closely to her heart,? her brother, former North Carolina Senator *Malcolm Graham*, told the *Charlotte Observer*. -- Suzanne L.

If the Constitution of the United States speaks to the head, the Declaration of Independence speaks to the heart and to the body; if the Constitution is prose, the Declaration is poetry. What does the Declaration of Independence have to offer us as twenty-first century Americans? What does it mean to have a right to pursue happiness? And how might we think about-and use-the Declaration to improve the state of our Republic?

I was shocked to find out that we were the only library to invite him to speak this summer!! He indicated that there were fears that he was not age appropriate. So, I want to speak on his behalf and say that I am so glad we invited him for our family night! No, he isn't a guy you want to bring in to do your 2 year old Music Together program, but anyone else would be thrilled to see him. The youngest kids sit in front of our program room - 3,4,5,6,7 and up and within moments he had those kids laughing and smiling and interacting! Phenomenal is the word that comes to my mind. Yes, I wondered how their initial reaction would be and yes, at first the kids were reserved and stand offish and one little boy even hid behind is grandmother. Yet, in no time at all Kacey brought them out of their shells and had them smiling and asking questions and listening to his incredible life story. His audience management was superb, his physical feats impressive, and his lessons inspiring. I honestly can't say enough great things about him. The children and adults in attendance last night have had their lives changed. He was inspiring as a speaker and through is high energy positive can-do attitude those kids will never look at a person in a wheelchair the same again. Before I even got home last night, people were writing comments. (I will post below.) Please consider Kacey McCallister in the future for any age or family program. You won't be disappointed! I would be glad to answer questions if you have any reservations at all about him! kaceyzmccallister at gmail.com http://www.kaceymccallister.com/ "Loved this program tonight!! Great message for our son who was born with Cerebral Palsy and Speech Apraxia! He's been told he can't or won't be able to do things and he just keeps plugging along." ~Tana "Our very favorite Superhero Librarian, Mary Ryan, arranged to have Kacey McCallister speak tonight at the Summer Reading Program event. He was AMAZING!!! So inspirational, funny, interactive, energized, reached all ages and really great w/all of the kiddos...even the younger ones! (He does have 3 of his own! LOL!) If you ever get a chance to see him...I highly suggest it! One of his main messages was that "you can do anything" and "don't let anyone tell you that you can't"! Every library and school should have him come and speak! Please ask your local libraries, schools and organizations to have him come and speak! Adults should hear him too!" ~Cheryl Mary E.

Library Board News State Library Board Met at the Beaverton City Library on June 19th [Heroes]The Oregon State Library Board met on Friday, June 19, 2015 at the Beaverton City Library in Beaverton. Prior to the meeting, Board member Leslie Hicks provided the Board and staff with a tour of her materials library at Nike World Headquarters. During the business meeting, the Board approved recommendations of the Library Services and Technology Act Advisory Council and the Talking Book and Braille Library Advisory Council. The Board also discussed the timeline and process for Administrative Rulemaking for HB 3523, the State Librarian's Performance Management process, and the results of the Board self-evaluation. The next board meeting will be held on Friday, August 21st at the Deschutes Public Library in Bend. Return to top of page State Library News State Library Has Community Connections For the past 25 years, the State Library has had an active volunteer service program working with Oregon communities. This has provided an opportunity to create an environment where volunteer citizens can donate their skills and time while contributing to the efficient delivery of State Library services. By having volunteers participate in tasks that will ultimately benefit Oregonians, we are also providing mentoring and work experience to help develop the library workforce. Our volunteers have done amazing work at the State library that has totaled over 100,000 hours of dedicated time and skills. A few of the activities volunteers perform include assisting with collection management, Talking Book inspection, support for Oregon libraries, mending books and documents, scanning and digitizing materials, greeting patrons, a variety of administrative tasks, making patron contacts, equipment maintenance, recording publications, and many more important tasks. In addition, we have a seven-member board of trustees that make policy decisions, and four advisory councils that have a total of 45 volunteers to help make important decisions and recommendations. Oregon communities are an important part of the function of the State Library. Our staff welcomes the opportunity to work with volunteers with a variety of skills and interests. A HUGE thank you to all of our volunteers over the years - we could not do what we do without you! OSL Board Approves LearningExpress Library Renewal and Added Content [LEL]At its meeting on June 19th, the Oregon State Library Board approved the Statewide Database Advisory Committee (SDLAC) recommendation for the State Library to continue its contract with LearningExpress Library. The Board also approved the addition of two new products, Job & Career Accelerator and Computer and Internet Basics to the contract. LearningExpress Library provides testing and skills-building resources to all Oregon libraries through the Statewide Database Licensing Program (SDLP). These new products will provide libraries with more tools for supporting job seekers in their local communities. The new products will be available when the new contract begins in November 2015. Questions? Contact Arlene Weible, Electronic Services Consultant. In Memory of Susan Niggli [SusanNiggli]The State Library Staff was saddened by the death of retired OSL employee Susan Niggli in June. Susan retired in November 2003 after a 30-year career at OSL. Her focus was the stacks, and her primary duties were shelving and paging. However, she incorporated other interests into her job, much to the benefit of the library. She enjoyed handicrafts in her spare time, and used some of her craft skills to mend books. In addition to book mending, she also trained volunteer book menders. Susan's interest in genealogy, including tracking the ancestry of her large family, continued after her retirement. She volunteered as a genealogy consultant in the State Library's Reference Room for a total of 2,493 hours and was active in the Willamette Valley Genealogy Society. Susan's knowledge of genealogy resources, both print and online, was such that some patrons only came to OSL to do genealogy research when Susan was on duty. Former supervisor Craig Smith said, "She was a great believer in using federal documents for all kinds of reasons. She was especially skilled at locating genealogical information in historic State and Federal documents. I consider her one of the unsung heroes of the library world." We are grateful for the many contributions Susan made to the State Library. Willamette Writers Will Coordinate Oregon's Letters About Literature Program [WW]As you probably know by now, this was the last year for staff at the State Library to coordinate Oregon's participation in the national Letters About Literature program. Staff reached out to a few organizations about adopting the reading and writing contest, and Willamette Writers agreed to take it on. Thanks to their board for that decision! Here's a bit about their organization: "Willamette Writers is the largest writers organization in Oregon and one of the largest in the United States. Writers of all genres and at all stages of their careers are invited to join." What does this mean for Oregon 4th - 12th graders, educators, and library staff who want to participate in Letters About Literature next school year? Since students' letters are sent directly to the national coordinator at the Library of Congress, that part will not change. Entries are usually due in December or January, and information will be posted on the State Library's and Willamette Writers' websites in the fall. However, folks from Willamette Writers will coordinate judging of Oregon letters that make it through the national screening, and they will determine how best to honor those being recognized in Oregon. Jen Maurer, the School Library Consultant at the State Library, will work closely with Blythe Ayne, the Awards and Writing Contests Director for Willamette Writers, to pave the way for a smooth transition. If you have questions, please email Jen, or call her at 503-378-5011. Look for more info around late September. Thanks very much to Willamette Writers for guaranteeing that Letters About Literature will continue in Oregon. Return to top of page Other Library News PLA Launches "Project Outcome" [ProjOutcome]Project Outcome is an initiative of the Public Library Association (PLA) that equips libraries with short, easy-to-use, patron-focused surveys designed to measure the impact of library services such as childhood literacy, computer training, and workforce development. The project focuses on measuring the outcomes of the programs that many public libraries have in common, thereby minimizing the work for each library in developing measures while also maximizing impact by giving libraries a shared language and the ability to aggregate data. Project Outcome will roll out its surveys and supporting tools-including customizable data dashboards, webinars and resources to help libraries use their findings to make improvements-at the 2015 American Library Association conference. An overview video is available here - for additional information, please visit PLA's Performance Measurement web page or contact the project manager, Emily Plagman.

Bandon (July 21), La Grande (July 28), Cottage Grove (August 18), and Newberg (August 25) will be the host communities. The "Main Street Meet-ups" will be from 1 to 3 p.m. followed by a downtown walking tour at 3 - 4 p.m. in each of the host communities. For more information, contact sheri.stuart at oregon.gov.

I hope all of you will put your hands together in a warm (or raucous!) round of applause for Karen Muller, who, as of July 1, is Hillsboro Public Library's new Assistant Director! Many of you know Karen from her work with the Oregon Library Association's Public Library Division, particularly their standards project. Immediately prior to becoming our Assistant Director, Library Operations, Karen served as our Manager, Materials Services, the division which comprises all aspects of the collection, including Materials Movement. We could not be happier to have her in this leadership role in Hillsboro. Karen is taking over for Linda Lybecker, who retired on June 30 after more than 35 years of library service, 18 of which were with Hillsboro.

Yes, it does!! It?s official and, incredibly, it?s virtually UNANIMOUS. Thanks in large part to the enthusiastic response to our call to action yesterday , and a boost from mega-author James Patterson, the US Senate today voted 98 ? 0 in favor of the bi-partisan Reed-Cochran Amendment to S. 1177, the Every Child Achieves Act of 2015 ! This amendment will explicitly make effective school library programs part of the Reauthorization of the Elementary and Secondary Education Act. Prior to the vote, both Sens. Jack Reed (D-RI) and Thad Cochran (R-MS) spoke eloquently in support of this amendment and the importance of school libraries. Their work has been invaluable in garnering attention for the important role that an effective school library program plays in a student?s education. BUT . . . while this is an important ?win?, our work is not quite finished. Stay tuned as the bill moves forward! Next steps for this bill will be: continued discussion on the Senate floor, a Senate vote, and then -- once the House has finished work on its own H.R. 5 -- the House and Senate will appoint a conference committee to resolve any disagreements and arrive at a bill that both can agree on. GO school libraries!!! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Eligible libraries are located within or working in partnership with organizations that serve at-risk youth, such as alternative high schools, juvenile justice organizations, homeless shelters, foster care agencies, teen parenting programs, residential treatment facilities and other nonprofit and community agencies. Up to 50 grants will be awarded. Working with small groups of six to 10 teens, grantees will host reading and discussion events for each of three selected book titles. The titles ? selected in consultation with librarian advisors and humanities scholars ? are chosen to resonate with reluctant readers struggling with complex issues like incarceration, violence and poverty. Visit https://apply.ala.org/gscmedia for full guidelines and to apply online. Applications are due Sept. 15. The theme for the current round of grants is ?Hack the Feed: Media, Resistance, Revolution,? and the books are ?Feed? by M.T. Anderson, ?The Hunger Games? by Suzanne Collins, and ?March: Books One? by John Lewis, Andrew Aydin and Nate Powell. Grantees will receive: 11 paperback copies of each of the three book selections (10 to gift to participants; 1 for discussion leader/library collection); travel and accommodation expenses paid for attendance at the project orientation workshop for the library project directors, on Nov. 16, 2015, in Chicago; training through periodic project webinars, a program planning guide, and other online support materials; online access to professionally designed, customizable and downloadable resources for use with program participants; and technical and programming support from the ALA Public Programs Office throughout the grant term. Programs that support the ?Media? theme must take place between Jan. 1 and May 30, 2016. Two additional rounds of Great Stories Club grants are expected to be awarded in 2016 and 2017 with the themes of ?The Art of Change: Creation, Growth and Transformation? and ?Nature vs. Nurture: Origins of Teen Violence and Suicide.?

The grant will be administered by ALA?s Public Programs Office in partnership with the Association for Specialized and Cooperative Library Agencies (ASCLA) , including the Library Services for Youth in Custody and Library Services to the Incarcerated and Detained interest groups.

You should subscribe.) The June cover story looked at efforts to provide better job and recreation opportunities for people with disabilities, and this section caught my eye: "... States will also have to defund facility-based "day habilitation" services, which are essentially recreational activities for groups of disabled people. That could signal a greater shift toward activities within public spaces like libraries and museums, tailored to individual interests for people with disabilities who aren't working." Is this on your radar? Which libraries or other agencies are leaders in this area? The article notes that the states have five years to accomplish this, so it's coming up fast.

If you read LTLO, the State Library's newsletter, you know that Willamette Writers has adopted Oregon's Letters About Literature program. (Thanks, Willamette Writers!) The way students enter the contest will not change. That's because students always send entries to the national Letters About Literature coordinator, per the directions on the annual entry form. I will help Willamette Writers promote the program on Oregon library listservs. Here's the information I shared in the July LTLO: As you probably know by now, this was the last year for staff at the State Library to coordinate Oregon's participation in the national Letters About Literature program. Staff reached out to a few organizations about adopting the reading and writing contest, and Willamette Writers agreed to take it on. Thanks to their board for that decision! Here's a bit about their organization: "Willamette Writers is the largest writers organization in Oregon and one of the largest in the United States. Writers of all genres and at all stages of their careers are invited to join." What does this mean for Oregon 4th - 12th graders, educators, and library staff who want to participate in Letters About Literature next school year? Since students' letters are sent directly to the national coordinator at the Library of Congress, that part will not change. Entries are usually due in December or January, and information will be posted on the State Library's and Willamette Writers' websites in the fall. However, folks from Willamette Writers will coordinate judging of Oregon letters that make it through the national screening, and they will determine how best to honor those being recognized in Oregon. Jen Maurer, the School Library Consultant at the State Library, will work closely with Blythe Ayne, the Awards and Writing Contests Director for Willamette Writers, to pave the way for a smooth transition. If you have questions, please email Jen, or call her at 503-378-5011. Look for more info around late September. Thanks very much to Willamette Writers for guaranteeing that Letters About Literature will continue in Oregon.

I?m writing to share another grant opportunity that may be of interest to public libraries in your area. Three traveling exhibitions are available ? *Explore Earth: Our Changing Planet, Explore Space: Our Solar System and Beyon*d, and *Explore Tech: Engineers Make a World of Difference*. Each requires only 200 square feet of display space, making them a good choice for small libraries or those without much extra space. Please let me know if you have questions or visit http://apply.ala.org/STARNet-Explore. Thanks! ************** *Apply to host a space, earth science or technology exhibition at your public library* The American Library Association (ALA) Public Programs Office, in collaboration with the Space Science Institute?s *National Center for Interactive Learning*, the Lunar and Planetary Institute and the Afterschool Alliance, invites public libraries to apply to host one of three science- and technology-focused traveling exhibitions. The exhibitions ? which are ideal for small libraries, requiring only 200 square feet of display space ? are designed to promote STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) learning opportunities for all ages. Applicants may apply for one of the following exhibitions: - *Explore Earth**:* *Our Changing Planet* will focus on local earth science topics ? such as weather, the water cycle and ecosystem changes ? as well as a global view of our changing planet. The primary message of the exhibition is that the global environment changes ? and is changed by ? the local environment of all host communities. *- **Explore Space:* *Our Solar System and Beyond* helps visitors answer the age-old questions: Where did we come from, and are we alone? The exhibition will teach audiences about our universe, including how stars and planetary systems form and the role that gravity plays in our universe. - *Explore Tech*:* Engineers Make a World of Difference* shows how engineering provides solutions to better meet human needs and develops sustainable innovations for the future. It features hands-on and multimedia components that allow exhibit visitors to interact with content in a dynamic way, encouraging new perspectives about engineers and their vital work. Full guidelines and an online application are available at *http://apply.ala.org/STARNet-Explore *. The application deadline is Sept. 18, 2015. Each exhibition will travel to 13 or 14 public libraries from 2016 to 2018. All grantees will receive: - one exhibition for an eight-week display period; shipping is free for grantees; - a cash grant of $1,000 to cover the cost of public programming related to the exhibition; - a publicity kit and media resources for a STEM @ My Library public engagement campaign; - an orientation webinar that will include information about content and science themes, a presentation and demonstration of hands-on science activities by the Lunar and Planetary Institute, and presentations and interactive discussions about programming resources; - periodic webinars on timely STEM topics to support programming in libraries; - an *Explore* teacher guide, family guide and hands-on activities for different age groups to help libraries develop programs and support classroom visits; and - access to the STAR_Net Online Community and a national network of STEM-oriented organizations.

This growth has led to many questions about library practices related to this type of collection. You are invited to help clarify library practices related to tabletop game collections by taking this 15 minute survey. http://bit.ly/TableTopGameSurvey The purpose of this survey is to gather information from all types of libraries on how they are cataloging, processing, and circulating their tabletop game collections. Your information is valuable no matter the size or scope of your local collection. This information will be included anonymously in an article on library tabletop game collections and made available in a digital repository. Our goal is to use this information to guide best practices for tabletop game collection development and circulation in libraries. The deadline for this survey is July 30, 2015.

The fifth annual conference about the future of libraries will take place on October 20, 2015, from 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. Pacific Daylight Time (GMT-7), and is free to attend. Two keynote speakers are already confirmed for the international conference. Dr. Sandra Hirsh , director of the San Jose State University (SJSU) School of Information (iSchool) and a longtime advocate of international collaboration in the field of library and information science, will give a welcome address. Toby Greenwalt, director of digital strategy and technology integration at the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, will also deliver a keynote address. Keeping to the conference theme of Tools, Skills and Competencies, Greenwalt's talk will cover "how the library makes itself visible in an always-connected world." Leadership in a time of change is another theme present in several accepted proposals, including that of Dr. Michael Stephens , an assistant professor at the SJSU School of Information and one of the conference's distinguished speakers . Stephens will be sharing some of the insights published in his monthly Library Journal column "Office Hours" and leading a discussion of "the challenges and promise of a changing LIS workforce" in a session titled, "Full Stacks, Introverts, & Zero-Sum Librarians: Notes from Office Hours." Proposals are still being submitted for the October conference, and sessions devoted to work in any information organization, such as an academic library, public library, special library, government agency, or other organization, are welcome. Four topical subject strands -digital services, emerging technologies, user experience, and management in the 21st century-are suggested for interested presenters, but proposals do not have to fit into one of the strands to be accepted. The annual Library 2.0 conferences were co-founded in 2011 by the SJSU School of Information, and this year the iSchool helped expand the experience for information professionals worldwide with the Library 2.015 Spring Summit and the Library 2.0 Webinar Series . More information on the 20,000 member international Library 2.0 network, and on attending the Library 2.015 Worldwide Virtual Conference, is available on the conference website .

Using data from the 2011-12 Schools and Staffing Survey (SASS), a sample survey of elementary and secondary schools in the United States, this report examines the percentages of public school teachers who have a major or certificate in their main teaching assignment. The report describes teachers of grades 5-8, but no grade lower than 5 and no grade higher than 9; the report also describes students and classrooms in grades 6-8. * Less than half of middle grades departmentalized teachers in English, mathematics, science, and social science held both a postsecondary degree and a teaching certification in their respective main subject assignment. More than 50 percent of teachers in French, Spanish, art/arts and crafts, music, and health education held both a postsecondary degree and teaching certification in their main subject assignment. * More than half of grade 6-8 departmentalized classes in English, mathematics, science, social science, French, German, Spanish, art/arts and crafts, music, health education, and general elementary education were taught by teachers with either a major or certification in the class subject. * Just over 40 percent of nondepartmentalized teachers - teachers who remain with the same class of students all day or provide individualized services - are general elementary education teachers. These general elementary education teachers divide their time evenly across the four core subjects of reading, mathematics, science, and social science. Fifty-four percent of these general elementary education teachers hold a major and certification in general elementary education.

[book 1.jpg] Albrecht, Steve. Library Security : Better Communication, Safer Facilities. Chicago: American Library Association, 2015. 025.82 Albre ISBN 9780838913307 Library work is really all about people. And the inclusive, welcoming nature of the library means that all kinds of people pass through its doors. Not all difficult patrons are dangerous, but some frighten staff and other library users, which can lead to situations that are distracting, troubling, and fraught with liability. For more than a decade, Albrecht, a 15-year police veteran, has presented workshops for libraries on dealing with challenging patrons. His no-nonsense advice will empower library staff in their personal security and give them the tools to confidently communicate with their colleagues, patrons, and members of law enforcement regarding inappropriate behavior. In this book he addresses security issues important to all libraries, including * Specific guidance for common situations, such as unruly teens, unwanted sexual advances, chronically homeless substance abusers, and more * The elements of an effective Code of Conduct and how to enforce it * Tips on how to manage internet usage to minimize potential problems * How to align with patrons and use language that defuses the conflict * Forming partnerships with service organizations, homeless shelters, mental health advocacy groups, and other community resources * How to know when it s time to call the police, plus ideas for increasing law enforcement support * Ways to make the library more secure through changes to facilities Through the methods outlined in this book, Albrecht demonstrates that effective communication not only makes library users feel more comfortable but also increases staff morale, ensuring the library is place where everyone feels welcome.

ISBN9780838912737 Since running a small library public, academic, school, or special often means making do with little or no staff, this challenging task calls for its own set of skills and expertise. That's where Moorman's how-to manual comes in, offering guidance on every essential aspect of what it takes to run a small library. Fully revised and updated, including a new chapter on digital library services, the second edition covers such day-to-day issues as: * Budgeting, from planning to advocacy * Developing and implementing policies and procedures * Maintaining facilities * Acquisition, cataloging, and collection development and management on a shoestring * Circulation * Programming, outreach, and community partnerships * Library technology, from computers and networks to automation systems and beyond Also featured is an updated resource section listing furniture, automation, book, and periodical vendors; electronic discussion and support groups; professional organizations; and resources for more information. This book is a must-have for any solo librarian or library manager with a small staff.

Only one survey response will be accepted for each seed library address given within the survey. Additionally, for all public library staff receiving this email, I am hoping to receive a survey per seed library, not per library system, so if it is possible, please have the most qualified person for each seed library at each participating branch fill out this survey. Please follow the link to take the survey through Google Forms: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1wU3EcjVe3wacUSJyu1_a0odsdq59YrKJJN3biaItcXM/viewform?usp=send_form You may have to copy and paste the link into your browser as there have been some difficulties with the hyperlink working in some email servers. I appreciate the time you put in to help my project! If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me at Emily.Roberson at coyotes.usd.edu. Some questions, especially concerning confidentiality, might be answered on the first page of the survey where I have provided more detailed information.

This means that two of the databases available in the statewide contract: General BusinessFile and Business Index ASAP will be replaced with this single new database. The attached FAQ document should answer most questions about the database changes. Please note that Business Insights: Global will remain its own separate product. The new URL and icon for Business Collection will be available on the Oregon Statewide Databases Library Support Portal closer to the August 7th date. Please contact me if you have any questions!

Before moving forward with programs, actions, or recommendations, the members of the Task Force on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion believe it is important to understand the culture of the association, the profession, and our communities with respect to equity, diversity and inclusion. These short surveys are an opportunity to include input and ideas from the professional community while complementing the rich data collection efforts of the larger association. The Task Force recognizes that incidents of racial bias and injustice continue to occur across the country on a regular basis. This survey, however, focuses on planned attendance in Orlando (the location that prompted the creation of the Task Force), but that will have implications for future ALA conference locations. This survey is brief and intended to gather information based on your thoughts regarding conference locations as well as to follow up on responses from the first survey. The survey can be accessed at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/tfedi2 Responses will be collected through Aug. 15, 2015. ALA members and nonmembers are encouraged to participate. Please take a few minutes to answer the survey, which should take no more than seven minutes to complete. 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. Thanks in advance for participating in this important survey and please let me know if you have any questions, comments, or feedback. Sincerely, Max Macias -- The ideas expressed in these emails in no way represent any organization's viewpoints, or opinions.

[research in context (large).png] Earlier I announced that Gale was developing a new middle school database, Research In Context (RIC), and that it would go live on July 1st. Here?s an update. ? Research In Context is live. ? It is designed for students in grades 6-8 and replaces these databases, which are no longer available: o Discovering Collection o Junior Reference Collection o Student Resource Center Junior (different than Student Resources In Context, which is not changing) o InfoTrac Junior ? Since one function of Gale PowerSearch is to serve as the Gale common menu, you can find Research In Context by clicking on PowerSearch and scrolling through the database list. See the next bullet about adding a specific link to RIC on your database page. ? Please alert the person who updates the database page on your library?s website. Database icons and library-specific URLs are available on the Gale support site for Oregon library staff. ? Research In Context?s interface is very similar to that of the other In Context products ? like Opposing Viewpoints, Students Resources In Context, and U.S. History In Context ? with a few intentional but minor differences. Read more about the database on the Research In Context product page. ? If you are familiar with the other In Context products, there?s not much to learn with RIC. Explore the brief video tutorials for a quick overview. Sometime in August, you should start to see RIC sessions on the webinar calendar. After Gale hosts a few RIC webinars, they will post one on the recorded webinars page. ? Free promotional posters, bookmarks, and tent cards should be available on the Gale Promo site by the fall. The shared login is gale690228 (username) and 690228 (password). Have questions? Please ask.

It is in regards to a library survey I am conducting on the library employment trends in the City of Portland. Please let me know if I need to make any adjustments to the message. Thank you, Jeff Fernandez Dear Library Directors/Managers, I would like to invite the academic, public, and special libraries located in the City of Portland to participate in a study that I am conducting regarding library employment trends. The study will be survey based and can be accessed online through a Google Form at the following URL (http://goo.gl/forms/rtRqrNHkwy). As with any survey it is important to receive as much participation as possible but I do understand that the information I seek may not be available or that you may not be able to provide the data that I am requesting. For this reason I have provided options to cover these situations. Currently I am focusing on the calendar year 2014 but I will accept any data that a library is willing to provide for past and future years as I would like to eventually make this a longitudinal study depending on the success of this study. The purpose of this study is to determine the current trends in library employment throughout the City of Portland. The research questions of the study will analyze different employment statistics including number of positions opened, number of applicants per opening, salary ranges, qualifications of applicants, and the reason for the opening. It is my belief that this study will benefit libraries and those seeking library employment. This study will inform current and future library professionals about the library employment market in Portland and provide them insight into what they can expect when searching for library employment in Portland. It will also provide libraries with information that they can use to compare themselves to other libraries in their field. Data regarding qualifications and number of applicants can help libraries determine if they are reaching the same number of qualified applicants compared to other libraries. Libraries will also be able to compare salary ranges and growth/loss with other institutions. Due to the sensitivity of some of the data being collected I will not publish the names of the libraries that participated as a way to maintain anonymity. I will also be the only person who will handle the data for this survey and will not share sensitive information with other persons or organizations. I will be submitting the study to the Oregon Library Association, Pacific Northwest Library Association, and American Library Association for publication. If none of these associations are interested then I will submit the study to open access journals; as of yet to be determined. I look forward to hearing from you if you would like to participate and/or stay apprised of the study?s progress. Again, I understand that you are very busy and I appreciate your time and any assistance you can provide. Below is a link to the survey which is being conducted online via Google Forms. http://goo.gl/forms/rtRqrNHkwy (Deadline for responses is August 31) Sincerely, Jeff Fernandez Jeff.fernandez at live.com -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Dark chocolate lowers blood pressure. Vaccines cause Autism. These have all appeared in some form as news headlines. Perhaps your patrons have come in seeking information they've read about in the newspaper or heard on the news. Your Pacific Northwest Regional office for the National Network of Libraries of Medicine ( NN/LM PNR) is offering a Moodle class called Health Issues in the Headlines: Reading Between the Lines, the second of a series of classes we are offering regarding consumer health. Participants will learn about how health is reported in the news as well as how to evaluate the accuracy and validity of science and health stories. The impact of celebrity illness will also be discussed. By the end of this course, participants will be better equipped to help their patrons look more critically at health issues that are being reported in the news media. This online class is self-paced and is free. It runs from Wednesday August 5th through Wednesday September 2nd and is worth 4 Medical Library Association CE credits. These credits qualify towards the Consumer Health Information Specialization with the Medical Library Association. You don't have to be a member to qualify for this. Two more classes be coming the next few months. Registration is going on right now, just go to https://nnlm.gov/pnr/training/register.html?schedule_id=3465 It is best to have a Moodle account so if you don't already have one, information should be given to you to link to Moodle where you can sign in or sign up to create an account. You can always email me if you have any problems doing this. Once the class begins make sure you are using the Health Issues in the Headlines: Reading Between the Lines PNR as other regions may be offering the class too. Contact me if you have questions!

Fred ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Frederic J. Grevin Vice-President, Records Management New York City Economic Development Corporation www.nycedc.com fgrevin at edc.nyc 212-312-3903 (w) Hi Everyone, If you've ever had a difficult time describing to others the differences between authenticity and integrity, here are a couple of videos where it becomes very evident. The first is the video of the "Sandra Bland Traffic Stop" which has been authenticated as originating from the dashcam of the Texas Department of Public Safety's arresting officer's car. The video provides information and evidence from the arrest. Its authenticity has not been questioned, but if you look closely, especially between 32:32-34:34, you will notice that the video has been looped (you will see the same white car make a left turn repeatedly), but the audio runs smoothly. That is to say, the "integrity" of the video is questionable. http://bennorton.com/dashcam-video-of-violent-arrest-of-sandra-bland-was-edited/ The second is the video of the "Center For Medical Progress: Video Proves Planned Parenthood Is "Selling Aborted Baby Parts" sting operation. In this one, the authenticity is and the integrity are questionable because a) it was recorded secretly by an anti-abortion group with an agenda, and b) when compared with the unedited, original video, there are at least three crucial edits that reveal the Planned Parenthood official was instead discussing the reimbursement cost for consensual, legal tissue donations. http://www.alternet.org/gender/how-video-attacking-planned-parenthood-was-deceptively-edited Very interesting to think about how de-contextualized information with questionable authenticity and integrity can undermine the accuracy of a record or recording! dk -- The ideas expressed in these emails in no way represent any organization's viewpoints, or opinions.

During that same time period, 4-year nonprofit institutions increased overall at 3 percent. However, for-profit institutions reported a 2 percent decrease. This First Look presents findings from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) fall 2014 data collection, which included three survey components: institutional characteristics for 2014-15-such as degrees offered, type of program, application information, and tuition and other costs; the number and type of degrees conferred from July 2013 through June 2014; and 12-month enrollment data for the 2013-14 academic year. Other findings include: * In 2014-15, of the 7,311 Title IV institutions in the United States and other U.S. jurisdictions, 3,100 were classified as 4-year institutions, 2,156 were 2-year institutions, and the remaining 2,055 were less-than-2-year institutions. * Of the roughly 3.2 million students receiving degrees at 4-year Title IV institutions, 58 percent received a bachelor's degree. This percentage varied by control of institution, with 65 percent of the 1.8 million students at public institutions receiving a bachelor's degree, 53 percent of the roughly 1.0 million students at private nonprofit institutions receiving a bachelor's degree, and 39 percent of the roughly 355,000 student at private for-profit institutions receiving a bachelor's degree. * Institutions reported a 12-month unduplicated headcount enrollment totaling about 27.8 million individual students. Of these, roughly 24.1 million were undergraduates and approximately 3.8 million were graduate students.

Earlier this week an Oregon librarian asked about library services for people with dyslexia, with a specific question about the availability of books published in dyslexic font. I thought many of you would be interested to know what we found. * The Oregon Talking Book and Braille Library offers audio books for any Oregonian who cannot read or understand standard printed material as a result of a learning disability or brain injury. If your patron is interested, have them fill out the attached application and have it signed only by their medical doctor. Once signed just mail it to Talking Book (address is on the form) and we will begin their library service immediately. Service includes a free listening device that is checked-out to the patron indefinitely or they can download audio books to their own device. * The OverDrive app now features a dyslexic font option. My understanding based on this article is that if customers download the OverDrive app and use it to read OverDrive eBooks, then they can change the font of all the eBooks into 'OpenDyslexic' or 'OpenDyslexic Bold'. Here is what one Oregon librarian says about this, "I had a few minutes to work with Overdrive and did have a chance to download a book and then set the font to "Open Dyslexic" and "Open Dyslexic Bold." It was really easy to do. You do need to set the font/type once a book is downloaded. You can also set to Dyslexic font/type for Library2Go home page. Very cool!" * Dyslexie Font seems to be one of two leaders in dyslexic fonts and publishing books in dyslexic font. * The other leader seems to be OpenDyslexic. Both Dyslexie Font and OpenDyslexic websites include children's books published in the fonts. * Amazon.com has a series of Dyslexic-Friendly Edition classics like The Scarlet Letter, Little Women, etc. It looks like they have just begun to doing DyslexiAssist Enabled eBooks; I only found three titles and they were all published this year. * My favorite resource for helping kids with learning disabilities learn to read, including dyslexia, is LDonline. I subscribe to the newsletter which usually includes articles with several practical tips and advice, and more scholarly/informational articles too. While it's specific to children with disabilities, I'd recommend this to anyone struggling to help their child learn to read. If you have any more information or resources on this topic that may be helpful to other libraries, please 'reply all' to share them with the group.

Imagine if all your library?s users were registered voters? Well, on September 22nd, 2015, librarians have a great opportunity to offer a ?program? to register voters on site complete with volunteers and marketing. A large number of libraries around the country will be participating in the event and we want you to participate too. All you have to do is go to the national website and click on the link to become a partner to allow volunteers to come to the library and sign people up. The NVRD will send you marketing materials, teach your staff how to register voters (if you go that route), and the volunteers will take care of all of the paperwork. This is a non-partisan effort supported by organizations like; Asian Pacific American Labor Alliance Education Fund, Bus Federation Civic Fund, Fair Elections Legal Network, League of Women Voters, Nonprofit VOTE, Rock the Vote, and Voto Latino. *Signing Up is Easy* You still have time to register as a partnered organization and it?s very easy to do through their website. If you sign up before September 4th, they will provide training and marketing materials for free! You can then use these materials to start planning a voter registration event on National Voter Registration Day on September 22th. *What Will You Have to Do?* We are asking you to sign up as a partnering organization through the website . This is easy to do and requires very little from the library. There are a couple of ways that we are asking you to partner with them and get involved. - You can organize a Voter Registration effort on September 22. - You can allow their volunteers to set up a booth in front of your library to get people registered to vote. - You can simply promote voter registration and/or volunteerism through marketing and communication efforts. *Why Is This So Important?* Plan and simply, the more registered library users in your community, the better your chances of winning an election come election time. Imagine if every library user in your community was a registered voter that your ballot committee could engage with and ask to vote for the library? It is also so important that library staff, from pages to directors get familiar and comfortable with the political process. A well-trained and comfortable staff is a huge asset during your library?s election. You are still the front line on library advocacy and as such, those staff members are all, in a way, candidates. *Is This Legal?* Yes. And it?s basic library work. While it is true that staff can never tell the public that they should vote yes or no on any piece of legislation, especially library ballot measures, they can help members of the public to get registered to vote and give them information about elections. *But We?re Not On the Ballot* Whether or not your library is on the ballot this November, this kind of political advocacy within your community will help you in the years to come. The planning stages before you announce a ballot measure is called surfacing and the more time you take to build your advocates and political supporters before an election, the less work you?ll have to do come election time. So, get started now with National Voter Registration Day! *Copyright ? 2015 EveryLibrary, All rights reserved.* EveryLibrary donors and event attendees *Our mailing address is:* EveryLibrary PO Box 406 Riverside, IL 60546 Add us to your address book unsubscribe from this list update subscription preferences -- *Diedre Conkling* *Lincoln County Library DistrictP.O.

I added the bolding. As Chief Education Officer, one of my fundamental roles is to listen to partners, educators, students and communities to learn what is working well and where there are opportunities to improve our systems to better support students?I am committed to transparent, regular communication, and to creating ongoing opportunities for a broad table of stakeholders to engage to help shape our path to 40-40-20?We are in the beginning stages of revamping our website to provide more information and resources that serve to support, inspire, and guide our educational and community partners. Our goal is to create a user friendly, resource abundant site that better lends itself to sharing real-time information about key priorities across the education continuum. Among other additions, we will be adding a robust research section with access to searchable, subject specific research including studies of best and promising practices; up to date information about barriers we are focused on, and more interactive opportunities to engage on key aspects of our work and state education priorities. Your feedback about the topics, resources, and tools that you would most be interested in having access to is invaluable. Please take 5 minutes to fill out a short set of questions via the Survey Monkey link below to help inform our website re-design.? https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/THCQFY9 This is the OEIB website: http://education.oregon.gov.

Cybersecurity Bill Posted by: Adam Eisgrau July 27, 2015 in Cybersecurity , Legislation , OGR It?s back to the ?barricades? for librarians and our many civil liberties coalition allies. Just over a year ago, District Dispatch sounded the alarm about the return of privacy-hostile ?cybersecurity? or ?information sharing? legislation. Again dubbed a ?zombie? for its ability to rise from the legislative dead, the current version of the bill (S. 754) goes by the innocuous name of the ?Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act ? . . . but ?CISA? is anything but. As detailed below, not only won?t it be effective as advertised in thwarting cyber-attacks, but it de facto grants broad new mass data collection powers to many federal, as well as state and even local, government agencies! CISA was approved in a secret session last March by the Senate Intelligence Committee. In April, ALA and more than 50 other organizations, leading cybersecurity experts and academics called on Congress to fix its many flaws in a detailed letter . Since then, S. 754 hasn?t had a single public hearing in this Congress. Nonethe?less, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) is pushing for a vote on S. 754 by the full Senate right *now*, before the Senate breaks for its summer recess in a matter of days. Sadly, unless we can stop it, this dangerously and heavily flawed bill looks to be headed for passage even if not amended at all. Touted by its supporters as a means of preventing future large-scale data breaches like the massive one just suffered by the federal government?s Office of Personnel Management, leading security experts argue that CISA actually won?t do much, if anything, to prevent such incursions . . . and many worry that it could make things worse . As detailed by our compatriots at New America?s Open Technology Institute and the Center for Democracy and Technology , what it will do is create incentives for private companies and the government to widely share huge amounts of Americans? personally identifiable information that will itself then be vulnerable to sophisticated hacking attacks. In the process, the bill also creates massive exemptions from liability for private companies under every major consumer privacy protection law now on the books. Your collected personal information would be shared *instantly* under the bill among many federal agencies including the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, the Department of Defense, NSA and the Department of Justice. Worse yet, it also would be shared with garden variety law enforcement entities at every level of government. None of them would be required to adequately restrict how long they can retain that personal information, or limit what kinds of *non-cyber* offenses the information acquired could be used to prosecute. If enacted, that would be a sweeping ?end run? on the Fourth Amendment and, in effect, make CISA a broad new surveillance bill. CISA also allows both the government and private companies to take rapid unilateral ?counter?measures? to retaliate against perceived threats, which may disable or disrupt many computer networks, including for example a library system?s or municipal government?s, believed to be the source of a cyber-attack. With all of its defects and dangers, it?s no wonder that CISA?s been labelled a ?zombie!? Now, it?s time for librarians to rise again, too . . . to the challenge of once more stopping CISA in its tracks. This time around, ALA has partnered with more than a dozen other national groups to do it in a way so old its novel again: sending Senate offices thousands . . . of *faxes*. Courtesy of our friends at AccessNow.org, you can join this retro campaign to protect the future of your privacy by delivering a brief, pre-written message online with just a single mouse click at www.stopcyberspying.com now! (If you prefer, you?ll also have the option of writing your own message.) Together we can stop CISA one more time, but votes could happen anytime now.

In this session we will read from the letters of Japanese American soldiers who volunteered for service despite being incarcerated in internment camps. We will also read from the letter of a woman who served in the WACs; and from a highly critical letter of a former administrator at Vanport. The program is free and open to the public. Bring your lunch from the Farmer's Market and join us in the OHS lobby for the last in our series!

With a tiny handful of exceptions, everyone got over it quickly, and learned how to use CDs. (Maybe some of your patrons will skip directly to downloadables!) We helped it along by buying a few inexpensive CD players and loaning them to patrons who didn't have them.

This program is intended to focus on the need to look at our history and our future in ways that will focus on peace and prevent us from repeating such horrendous events as the Atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki and the Holocaust during WWII. We start our event series with a poet's response to the nuclear age on Saturday, August 1st, a Peace Lunch on August 6th, the 70th anniversary of the Atomic bombing of Hiroshima and an exhibit reception on August 9th, the 70th anniversary of the Atomic bombing of Nagasaki. Join us in remembering Hiroshima and Nagasaki and working for a nuclear-free future. We are honored and pleased to be partnering with Mountain Writers Series, Oregon Physicians for Social Responsibility, and The Wholistic Peace Institute to bring you these events. Please see the attached flyer for dates and times.

Elections for SRRT-OR leadership for 2015-16 will take place in September. I believe that now, more than ever, the profession needs the SRRT to discuss issues affecting our patrons and our profession and take action to make changes. Last year, we created a community listserv, co-sponsored an OLA panel presentation, and began work on a toolkit to help library staff create a culturally competent work environment. What is next? I've been the solo chair for the past year, but we need new blood in here! There are two chair positions: Chair and Vice-Chair. Please consider nominating yourself or another SRRT member. If you would like to run but are not a current member, you may nominate yourself, but you will need to become a member of OLA/SRRT in order to actually be the Chair or Vice-Chair. This is a really great way to get involved in OLA at the leadership level, but doesn't require a huge level of commitment on your part. So nominate yourself or someone else using the form below! NOMINATION FORM And for those of you who haven't already joined our listserv / Google Group, check it out! You don't need to be an SRRT member to join, so feel free to invite others and let's start having discussions about librarianship and social responsibility: https://groups.google.com/forum/?hl=en#!forum/srrt-or.

I have a little wisdom on this. First, if you choose to tag discs, don't use the little donut tags. They aren't effective and they come off easily inside people's DVD players. If you are going to tag discs, get overlay tags. We found the Stingray tags to be the best. If you want sourcing info for those, we have that. I will let someone else chime in on the issue of tagging cases vs. tagging discs. We've tried security cases, but at the volume of circulation we do, they were too much work for us and for patrons.

The position is kin to a City Manager's position vis-??-vis the City's elected council. Furthermore, nearly all Directors of libraries in Oregon are called "directors," even those under City or County governance. Nothing wrong with "District Librarian" either - or "CEO" - it's the understanding of the meaning that counts. Everybody understands that managers work under directors, not under a Board. Head of OTLD is not a "manager." And Board members do not "direct" library operations. etc. etc. The OTLD Board needs to educate themselves on the nature and authority of different kinds of Boards. Anyone who has written descriptions of Board authority or Director authority that would help the Interim Director might want to send them to OTLD director and help her out. Aletha G.

Then the librarian is the Manager and reports to the Director of Community Services. It has nothing to do with being elected.

ALBANY GROUPS COMBINE ON DIGITIZATION PROJECT Robert "Bob" Potts was a lifelong Albany resident, serving in the military as a ham radio operator during World War II. He was a co-owner of Duedall and Potts Stationery Store in downtown Albany for many years. Potts was very involved in the history of Albany, and spent many years collecting photographs. In the 1990's Potts wrote six books on Albany's history, which included hundreds of photographs. Through a joint project of the Albany Regional Museum and the Albany Public Library, approximately 7,000 thousand photos from the Robert Potts Collection were numbered, sorted, and scanned. The project involved scanning the images both front and back; the backs of the photos often include identifying information as well as their unique ID number. A grant from the Oregon Heritage Commission, Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, using its partner funds from the Oregon Cultural Trust, provided partial supported for the project. Interested parties will find the scanned images hosted online at Google photos. To view the images, visit the Albany Regional Museum or Albany Public Library.

Oregon Black Pioneers received funding for its most recent exhibit. Cascade AIDS Project collected oral histories and made them accessible. Portland State University hosted the Archaeology Roadshow. Southern Oregon Historical Society completed seismic upgrades to its collections storage. "We hope to see a variety of projects that engage Oregonians in heritage," states Kyle Jansson, Oregon Heritage Commission coordinator. "We encourage the documentation, preservation and exploration of all aspects of Oregon's heritage." "Our goal is to support organizations of all sizes all over the state in their valuable work. We provide assistance in the application process," notes Kuri Gill, the grants program coordinator. To learn more about the grants, visit www.oregonheritage.org, email Kuri Gill or call (503) 986-0685. ALBANY GROUPS COMBINE ON DIGITIZATION PROJECT Robert "Bob" Potts was a lifelong Albany resident, serving in the military as a ham radio operator during World War II. He was a co-owner of Duedall and Potts Stationery Store in downtown Albany for many years. Potts was very involved in the history of Albany, and spent many years collecting photographs. In the 1990's Potts wrote six books on Albany's history, which included hundreds of photographs. Through a joint project of the Albany Regional Museum and the Albany Public Library, approximately 7,000 thousand photos from the Robert Potts Collection were numbered, sorted, and scanned. The project involved scanning the images both front and back; the backs of the photos often include identifying information as well as their unique ID number. A grant from the Oregon Heritage Commission, Oregon Parks and Recreation Department, using its partner funds from the Oregon Cultural Trust, provided partial supported for the project. Interested parties will find the scanned images hosted online at Google photos. To view the images, visit the Albany Regional Museum or Albany Public Library. NATIONAL ARCHIVES OFFERS DIGITAL DISSEMINATION OF ARCHIVAL COLLECTIONS GRANTS The National Historical Publications and Records Commission (NHPRC) of the National Archives is offering a Digital Dissemination of Archival Collections grant program, which supports projects that promote access to America's historical records and encourage understanding of our democracy, history, and culture. The grant draft deadline is Aug. 3 and final grant submittal deadline is Oct. 8. The NHPRC desires to make historical records of national significance to the United States broadly available by disseminating digital surrogates on the Internet. Projects may focus on the papers of major figures from American life or cover broad historical movements in politics, military, business, social reform, the arts, and other aspects of the national experience. For further information, visit http://www.archives.gov/nhprc/announcement/digital.html.

I haven't used joblist just because I didn't want to spend a lot of money but I think that it is a good resource. I have listed jobs on a number of discussion lists. In this case it would be very good to post it on publib at oclc.org, which reaches about 8,000 people and on libadmin at lists.ala.org. I also post on some facebook pages. If I see a good Oregon job posting I often pass them on for you if I don't see your posting in these places. ;-) The Washington Library Association has a good list of places to post job listings, http://www.wla.org/library-jobs, though some of the links are no longer good. It includes some of the regional library associations. I try posting at least to PNLA and MPLA ($25) http://mpla.us/quick-links/jobline.html. I would also try to post to state joblines in Utah, Idaho, Washington, Nevada, etc. The MPLA site has links to some state joblines.
