LAIP has networked with hundreds of libraries who are working with their communities to incubate and inspire creative projects. They have talked with scores of artists, writers, makers, performers, and other creatives about how they use their libraries and how their libraries can serve them even better. In this webinar, LAIP shares program and project ideas, resources and case studies to turn your library into a creativity incubator. Take the workable, scalable programming and resource framework from LAIP and become a hub for supporting creatives of all types and skill levels in your community.

Libraries are a locus of informal learning. As the number of STEM related careers continues to multiply, libraries can play a key role in fostering the interest and excitement for STEM learning that may be missing in schools. Through the generous support of a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, Kitsap Regional Library System (KRL) has developed a ready-to-use system that empowers libraries of all sizes to become community STEM leaders. If you feel like an "accidental STEM librarian" and are wondering how to get started, staff at this semi-rural library system will share fresh ideas and hands-on, practical advice for planning and implementing impactful programs. Learn how to take the lead with informal learning for youth and families in your community. Presenters: From Kitsap Regional Library, Shannon Peterson, Youth Services Manager and Seth Ciotti, BiblioTEC Program Manager This webinar is hosted in collaboration with the Association for Rural & Small Libraries.

State of Oregon Research Academy [https://www.oregon.gov/osl/LTLO/LTLOApr2016/SORA.jpg]Effective government operation requires a great deal of research. In order to conduct that research, the state employs a fairly large number of researchers. The results of their research are often manifested in the delivery of services, development of policy, implementation of legislation and eventually, published in state documents that are eventually housed at the Oregon State Library. Researchers do not, however, need to operate in within the confines of a single agency nor utilize the same methodology, research design, and analysis. Research is most effective when it is a collaborative process where colleagues can come together to discuss and share ideas, approaches, and results. The State of Oregon Research Academy (SORA) was created to offer those working for the State of Oregon an opportunity to network, build connections for collaboration, and learn more about research, data, and statistics. Membership is free and currently stands at nearly 200 members, representing approximately 20 agencies. Staff from the State Library also participates in SORA, serving on the group's executive committee as Volunteer Coordinator and assisting in the planning of programming. SORA has hosted events including panel discussions, research presentations, mixers, and recently at the State Library, a poster session. Events are free and open to the public. So, please attend if you'd like to get a little more insight into what your state government is doing. If you work with patrons who are interested in pursuing careers involving research, SORA may provide them with a great networking opportunities. For instance, SORA is in the process of organizing a job shadow program and intern positions could result from networking with group members. The State of Oregon is always looking for quality research staff. More information about SORA, including an events calendar, can be found on their website.

A panel session offers an opportune occasion for two to four presenters to engage in a cohesive and productive conversation about a topic of importance to academic libraries and librarianship. Lasting 60 minutes (including time for Q&A), the discussion proves effective in prompting the audience to think about the topic and/or share insights from different perspectives. Conference tags (http://conference.acrl.org/conference-content/conference-tags/) are available to stimulate your thinking and position your proposal within the conference theme. Proposals for traditionally underrepresented topics such as scholarly communication, special collections/archives, and technical services are especially welcome! Information about submitting a proposal is online at: http://conference.acrl.org/conference-content/how-to-submit/ When you are ready for the submission, start the process here: https://s4.goeshow.com/acrl/national/2017/abstract_submission.cfm The submission deadline is May 6, 2016. Feel free to contact me or the Panel Sessions Committee Chairs Adrian Ho (hoadriank at gmail.com) and Heidi Steiner Burkhardt (heidisb at umich.edu) if you have any questions. --Cheryl Middleton Cheryl Middleton/Associate Professor Associate University Librarian for Learning & Engagement OSU Libraries 121 The Valley Library Corvallis, OR 97331 541-737-8527 e-mail: Cheryl.Middleton at oregonstate.edu -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Have you ever dreamed about becoming a developer of historic buildings? Have you wanted to dig for information about Oregonians not documented in traditional historical resources? Or understand metadata? This year's Oregon Heritage Conference will help make your dreams come true as workshops and sessions on those topics and more are included in the three-day program May 4-7 in Salem. A day-long, interactive and hands-on workshop on May 4 will help you build public support, identify priority issues and develop strategies to communicate effectively. Public officials and veteran advocates will also present their tips and experiences with advocacy. The workshop's atmosphere will be real as it takes place in a Capitol legislative hearing room. Also on the afternoon of May 4, you can get a crash course on adaptive reuse as you work with others to envision turning a historic building into a successful business incubator. Aided by real-world case studies, you will learn the basics of redevelopment and how to leverage existing historic development resources. A basic challenge for everyone is finding information about Oregonians not documented in traditional historical resources, such as people who were not in power. Learn from professionals in the "How to Dig for Information" session who have successfully found that information and brought it into historical narratives. Finally, you can learn about the importance of creating metadata when you digitize in a session on May 5. Eva Guggemos of Pacific University and the Washington County History Online Project will help you learn the most important metadata fields, how to create them, how to maintain metadata quality control, and how to train and work with volunteers in creating metadata. The conference will bring together hundreds of people who love and work with Oregon's heritage May 4-6 at the Oregon State Capitol in Salem. Designed to be interdisciplinary, the conference focuses on all sectors of heritage, such as historic preservation, museums, archives, libraries, and local and state government. By bringing everyone together in one place, we can begin to realize that our work in heritage is all interconnected, that we have similar problems, and, together, can create better solutions. For the preliminary program information, take a look at the conference webpage. A link to the registration page is also on that page so that you can begin making your dreams come true. Share your photos of Oregon's heritage on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter using #oregonheritage.

As a follow-up to the "Lifelong Learning and Technology" report from the Pew Research Center a little over two weeks ago (see the email below this one), they have released a new report, "Libraries and Learning". Brief introduction: Majorities of Americans think local libraries serve the educational needs of their communities and families pretty well and library users often outpace others in learning activities. But many do not know about key education services libraries provide Most Americans believe libraries do a decent job of serving the education and learning needs of their communities and their own families. A new survey by Pew Research Center shows that 76% of adults say libraries serve the learning and educational needs of their communities either "very well" (37%) or "pretty well" (39%). Further, 71% say libraries serve their own personal needs and the needs of their families "very well" or "pretty well." As a rule, libraries' performance in learning arenas gets better marks from women, blacks, Hispanics, those in lower-income households, and those ages 30 and older. At the same time, many do not know that libraries offer learning-related programs and materials such as e-books, career and job resources, and high school certification courses. The entire report can be read online from here: http://www.pewinternet.org/2016/04/07/libraries-and-learning/ or you can download the PDF: http://www.pewinternet.org/files/2016/04/PI_2016.04.07_Libraries-and-Learning_FINAL.pdf A complete list of library-related reports previously published can be found here: http://libraries.pewinternet.org/ Cheers!

The Pew Research Center has released a new report today that should be of interest to librarians: Lifelong Learning and Technology Overview: A large majority of Americans seek extra knowledge for personal and work-related reasons. Digital technology plays a notable role in these knowledge pursuits, but place-based learning remains vital to many and differences in education and income are a hallmark of people's learning activities Most Americans feel they are lifelong learners, whether that means gathering knowledge for "do it yourself" projects, reading up on a personal interest or improving their job skills. For the most part, these learning activities occur in traditional places - at home, work, conferences or community institutions such as government agencies or libraries. The internet is also an important tool for many adults in the process of lifelong learning. A new Pew Research Center survey shows the extent to which America is a nation of ongoing learners: * 73% of adults consider themselves lifelong learners. * 74% of adults are what we call personal learners - that is, they have participated in at least one of a number of possible activities in the past 12 months to advance their knowledge about something that personally interests them. These activities include reading, taking courses or attending meetings or events tied to learning more about their personal interests. * 63% of those who are working (or 36% of all adults) are what we call professional learners - that is, they have taken a course or gotten additional training in the past 12 months to improve their job skills or expertise connected to career advancement. The complete report can be read online here: http://www.pewinternet.org/2016/03/22/lifelong-learning-and-technology/ and a PDF version of the report can be downloaded: http://www.pewinternet.org/files/2016/03/PI_2016.03.22_Educational-Ecosystems_FINAL.pdf A complete list of library-related reports previously published can be found here: http://libraries.pewinternet.org/ Cheers, Darci [cid:image010.jpg at 01D190BA.813ED330] Ask me about the Edge Initiative! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Darci Hanning * Technology Development Consultant Library Support and Development Services * Oregon State Library 250 Winter St. NE, Salem, OR 97301 503-378-2527 darci.hanning at state.or.us [cid:image004.png at 01D0358C.4523C4D0] [http://www.thewwwblog.com/images/blogger-logo.jpg] [http://www.aethlonmedical.com/assets/001/5130.png] [Picture] -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Sager ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Don Wood Date: Fri, Apr 8, 2016 at 9:58 AM Subject: [alacro-l] Publisher partners with libraries for Money Smart Week promotion To: "alacro-l at lists.ala.org" Libraries celebrating Money Smart Week, April 23 ? 30, will have the opportunity to take advantage of an offer from publisher HarperCollins to receive special pricing for simultaneous access to seven finance-related ebook titles. >From April 15 through May 15, participating libraries can obtain, at the price of $100, unlimited access to the following titles: ?Real Money Answers for Every Woman,? by Patrice C. Washington; ?The New Totally Awesome Money Book for Kids,? by Arthur Bochner and Rose Bochner; ?The Wall Street Journal Guide to the New Rules of Personal Finance,? by Dave Kansas; ?The Aspirational Investor,? by Ashvin B. Chhabra; ?The Opposite of Spoiled: Raising Kids Who Are Grounded, Generous, and Smart About Money,? by Ron Lieber; ?The Intelligent Investor,? by Benjamin Graham?; and ?The Truth About Money,? by Ric Edelman. Libraries should contact their vendors for further information. Created by the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago in 2002, Money Smart Week? is a public awareness campaign designed to help consumers better manage their personal finances. The American Library Association (ALA) is among several partnering organizations. Participating libraries provide programming for all ages and all stages of life on topics such as: basic budgeting; managing student debt; retirement planning; home purchasing; saving money through couponing; and how to prevent identity theft. ?The ALA is excited that HarperCollins is providing this opportunity for libraries to circulate information and resources to help Americans realize their financial goals,? said ALA President Sari Feldman. ?Financial literacy skills are absolutely crucial in our society, regardless of age or financial status.? ?We also applaud HarperCollins for recognizing that libraries are dynamic centers of learning in the digital age,? said Feldman, who led an ALA delegation in meetings with Big 5 publishing executives in December to discuss expanding the options for library ebook lending business models to give libraries more choice ? one idea that emerged was the possibility of special promotions tied to specific subject matter. ?This is an important step in the development of the relationship between libraries and publishers, a relationship that will have long-lasting implications for reading and literacy.? Carolyn Anthony, co-chair of the ALA?s Digital Content Working Group (DCWG) and a member of the delegation that met in December, said of the promotion, ?This is a positive development and a clear indication that the relationship between ALA and publishers is moving in the right direction. We welcome experimentation with terms and pricing that will help libraries develop breadth in their digital collections.?

Currently, we have them in large canvas bags. This makes them easy to carry, but is atrocious from a marketing standpoint, and makes them difficult to shelve/store. We have looked into large plastic totes w/handles, but are unsure if the pros (visibility of contents, easier to store) outweigh the cons (cumbersome for patrons to tote, more likely to get damaged). Any container would need to be big enough for several picture books, some DVS and a toy, puppet, etc. We have Play and Learn Boxes (early literacy kits) in smaller plastic totes w/handles, and these have been very well received, but bigger and heavier....? Any thoughts or suggestions? Thank you!

Instagram?s user-friendly interface makes it easy to broadcast pictures and short videos to a wide audience. But just like any social media tool, it is important to know what works (and what doesn?t) when it comes to using Instagram to share library information. Come to this free webinar to learn from two libraries who have been successfully using Instagram to engage with their communities, and to share positive library messages with the larger community of Instagram users across the world. From promoting library materials to showcasing library services, these libraries will share good practices that they have learned along the way. - Burlingame Public Library (CA) uses their Instagram account to share its unique story visually through a combination of captivating photos and videos. - Cherry Hill Public Library (NJ) uses their Instagram account to promote library materials and services, celebrate libraries in general, and to convey a love of reading and books. This webinar will be recorded and archived on the TechSoup for Libraries website. Please register for this webinar to receive an email notification when the archive is available.

Here are two webinars from WebJunction coming up later this month and early in May. And remember, if you can?t attend a live session, all WebJunction webinars are recorded and available for free in the course catalog. Make, Do, Share: Build a STEM Learning Community Thursday, April 28, 2016 / 12 pm Pacific / 1 hour Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/make-do-share.html Youth in grades K-12 spend an astounding 81% of their time in informal learning environments outside of school. Libraries are a locus of informal learning. As the number of STEM related careers continues to multiply, libraries can play a key role in fostering the interest and excitement for STEM learning that may be missing in schools. Through the generous support of a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services, Kitsap Regional Library System (KRL) has developed a ready-to-use system that empowers libraries of all sizes to become community STEM leaders. If you feel like an "accidental STEM librarian" and are wondering how to get started, staff at this semi-rural library system will share fresh ideas and hands-on, practical advice for planning and implementing impactful programs. Learn how to take the lead with informal learning for youth and families in your community. Presenters: From Kitsap Regional Library, Shannon Peterson, Youth Services Manager and Seth Ciotti, BiblioTEC Program Manager This webinar is hosted in collaboration with the Association for Rural & Small Libraries. Introducing Learning Circles: Online Learning, Offline Tuesday, May 3, 2016 / 12 pm Pacific / 1 hour Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/introducing-learning-circles.html Learning Circles offer a solution to the isolation of online learning by creating study groups for learners who want to take their online courses together, in-person. Developed by Chicago Public Library and P2PU, these librarian-facilitated study groups meet weekly in the library for 6-8 weeks to work through online courses in subjects ranging from resume writing to public speaking to web design. Participants experience the value of sharing strategies, progress and companionship with peers, all in a low-stress environment. Join presenters Grif Peterson of P2PU and Kate Lapinski of Chicago Public Library to learn more details and recent highlights of the program. If you decide that Learning Circles could work at your library, you can take advantage of the P2PU open source toolkit for librarians and practitioners around the world who want to start running Learning Circles in their community. Presented by: Grif Peterson, Learning Lead, P2PU; and Kate Lapinski, Learning & Economic Advancement Librarian, Chicago Public Library Other News from WebJunction WebJunction?s free, online course catalog has over 40 self-paced, online courses on library topics, as well as over 185 curated webinar archives ready and available when you are.

Getting Feedback with Patron Surveys: Case Study - Checking in with patrons is important, whether to measure awareness, satisfaction, or to get input before small or big changes. However, many factors can keep libraries from obtaining that feedback?lack of staff time or experience, for example. This article highlights one library?s experience and provides you with ideas to set you on the path to successfully collecting patron feedback. ?

[Self-Publishing and Collection Development: Opportunities and Challenges for Libraries] Holley, Robert P. (ed.). Self-Publishing and Collection Development: Opportunities and Challenges for Libraries. Purdue University Press, 2015. ISBN: 978-1-55753-721-8 Description As the term "traditional publishing" begins to fade and new content producers join the conversation, librarians, publishers, and vendors will play an important role in facilitating and managing the shift. This book includes essays on reviewing sources, cataloging and bibliographic control, and vendor issues. Information addressing public libraries issues will highlight initiatives to make self-published materials available at the Los Gatos Public Library in California and the Kent District Library in Michigan. Essays on academic library issues will address why self-published materials are important for academic institutions, especially those with comprehensive collecting interests. Several self-published authors focus on how they attempt to make their works more suitable for public libraries. Table of Contents A detailed table of contents is available on the LIS Collection blog: http://osl-lis.blogspot.com/2016/04/self-publishing-and-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 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 to discuss alternative options for borrowing the material. Be sure to check out our Library and Information Science (LIS) blog to discover the most recent additions to our LIS collection and search our catalog for our complete holdings. The library science collection is meant to support the whole Oregon library community. Library Support and Development Services welcomes your suggestions for acquisitions - see the blog for an input form or email us!

These sessions are followed by lunch, activities, and a panel of male undergraduates who will answer the boys? questions about college life. Finally, there is a free ?It?s a Guy Thing? gift for all participants.

However, in the event that the library?s circulating and reference materials are inadequate to meet a particular need, the library will, upon patron request, attempt to borrow desired materials from libraries outside of the Oceanbooks Network. The library will honor other lending institution?s policies, including loan periods, replacement charges, non-renewal, and in-library use restrictions. Because the library does not attempt to support major research and does not have the staff resources to do so, patrons may not place more than six interlibrary loan requests at a time. Cardholders may not borrow more than fifty items via interlibrary loan in a calendar year. Only Driftwood Public Library cardholders may place interlibrary loan requests through Driftwood Public Library. Temporary cardholders and Passport cardholders may not place interlibrary loan requests. In order to preserve borrowing relationships with other lending institutions, individuals with overdue interlibrary loan items will not be allowed to check out additional interlibrary loan items until the overdue item is returned. Additionally, new interlibrary loan requests will not be processed until overdue interlibrary loan items are returned. The library will not charge fees for interlibrary loans, except in the case of patrons who fail to pick up ordered materials on more than two occasions. Driftwood Public Library will not borrow materials from institutions that charge an interlibrary loan fee unless the patron agrees to pay the lending institution?s fee. In filling interlibrary loan requests from other libraries, Driftwood Public Library will process all such requests in a timely fashion. In order to best serve its own patrons, the library will not loan high-demand items or items less than six months old." The charge for regularly failing to pick up ILL items is $5 per item. I can't remember the last time we actually charged someone, but we like having the option.

We love having our patrons read from all over the world, but when something goes wrong such as a patron having an item stolen, then the consequences get spendy. Anyone care to share your thoughts?

Message-ID: How?s that song go? Tomorrow from Annie? ?O-L-A! O-L-A! I love ya, OLA. You?re only a week away!? And with that earworm firmly placed, here are some handy tips and reminders for your conference experience: Conference Program and Sharing Do you have your sessions all picked out yet? No? We have such a great line-up, it is understandably hard to choose. Sign up for a Sched account and customize your schedule. Then use the Sched site on your mobile device to keep track of where to be and when. How cool is that? We will also be selling tickets to the President?s Party on site at the Registration Desk till 5 pm on Thursday in case your groove doesn't hit you till you're in Bend (it's been known to happen). If you?re presenting at OLA, tell everyone how great your session will be using #ORLib16 on Twitter and Instagram. We?ll be posting updates and tips there, as well. Streaming Awards Ceremony For anyone who couldn't make it to the 2016 Oregon Library Association Conference, we will be experimenting with streaming the Awards event so you can celebrate your colleagues from the comfort of your home library. This is our first time trying this so there might be cats photobombing or cameras falling, who knows. Watch on Friday, April 22nd 12:30 pm on Google+ or YouTube . Weather & Packing List Next week?s forecast for Bend is calling for beautiful 70 degree days but with chilly 40 degree mornings and some wind. That?s right -- bring layers. All the layers. Plan on being cold and hot and anything in between. Packing list: - all the layers, - sunglasses (no really, the sun is somehow brighter here), - swimsuit (Riverhouse?s indoor and outdoor pools will be open next week for room guests; sauna will not be open yet.) - a reusable water bottle (only 30% humidity out here in the high desert), - your business cards, - charging cables for your devices, - a notepad and pen, - snacks! - and a handy tote bag (if you don?t have tote bags, well, buddy, have I got a deal for you ?). Riverhouse Update & Restaurants The Riverhouse has been undergoing lots of exciting renovations this year to the hotel. The good news is - that means brand new sparkling guest rooms! The bad news is - the restaurant won?t be finished until May. Our conference lunches and dinners will still be happening at the convention center, but for any other snacks or meals, you?ll need to either bring some food with you or check out the many cafes, restaurants and brewpubs. Use the search feature of the Where To Eat Guide . Sadly, the Riverhouse location is not exactly walking distance to much of interest. There is a Natural Grocers across the street. For Thursday night, remember to check the message board at the OLA Registration Desk for group dinners and destinations. We will have a conference shuttle leaving from the convention center at regular intervals heading to downtown and the Old Mill. Resumes, Mentors, & Buddies If you don?t already subscribe to Libs-OR, check out the archives for information on getting your resume reviewed, meeting up with a mentor, or getting a conference buddy. Exhibits, Prizes, and Goodies - Emporia State University will hold an ?Alumni and Friends Reception? on Thursday, April 21st from 5:30-7:00 pm. Please stop by their booth (booth 1) in the vendor area for the location. - Please stop by the McGraw-Hill booth (booth 28) for a chance to learn about AccessScience, AccessEngineering and the McGraw-Hill eBook library, and while you?re there enter the drawing to win a $50 Amazon Gift Card! - Stop by the Online LiS Degree Programs @ SFCC booth (booth 11). Discover degree programs for current and future library staff and discounted options for current library employees. Sign up for the Sasquatch drawing on Friday! - The Oregon Documents Depository (booth 20) will have coloring pages. - Visit the CCI Solutions booth (booth 29) for free library cases and for a chance to win an iPad mini! - Stop by the ABDO booth (booth 10) to see what?s new and take a picture with Darth Vader (don?t forget to Tweet your pictures to @ABDOpublishing)! While you?re there, be sure to grab an ABDO bag of catalogs and enter drawings to win the popular cardboard stand-up of Darth Vader or an ABDO bag full of books. We look forward to seeing you! -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

This year, we?re teaming up with the Harry Potter Alliance (HPA) to help expand our efforts and take advantage of the momentum started by the nearly 400 library supporters who plan to attend NLLD. Their Chapters? members are pledging their time to make calls, send emails, tweet, and otherwise raise awareness about library issues during the week of May 2nd. To date, the HPA has received pledges for nearly 500 actions from their members! We think we can do our wizarding friends even better. Over the next few weeks, please ask everyone in your circles -- members, followers, patrons, fellow library staffers, and listservs -- to join us! Once they register for VLLD, we?ll follow up by sending them talking points and other handy resources they can use to advocate easily and effectively. We?ll be including a link to a webstream of the National Library Legislative day program, live from Washington, on the morning of May 2nd. They?ll get to hear our keynote speaker, former Congressman Rush Holt, and listen in on this year?s issue briefing. I?ve attached a few graphics that I?ll be using to promote VLLD on social media this year. There?s also a handy resource toolkit for librarians who may want to get younger advocates involved.

We collected some really useful information, which I turned into the attached PowerPoint presentation. Thank you to all of the library directors who participated! If you'd like to view the complete survey responses or did not receive the attachment, please e-mail me so I can get this information to you. My personal reaction to the results is a "yes and" situation: As a state, we need to increase and support bilingual/bicultural library staff members AND provide better support to existing library staff members of all language abilities/cultural backgrounds who want to provide high-quality services to their Spanish-speaking communities.

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 to discuss alternative options for borrowing the material. Be sure to check out our Library and Information Science (LIS) blog to discover the most recent additions to our LIS collection and search our catalog for our complete holdings. The library science collection is meant to support the whole Oregon library community. Library Support and Development Services welcomes your suggestions for acquisitions - see the blog for an input form or email us!

The National Library of Medicine (NLM) creates traveling banner exhibits about the social and cultural history of science and medicine. The Exhibition Program creates lively and informative exhibitions and educational resources that enhance awareness of and appreciation for the collections of the National Library of Medicine. These exhibitions and educational resources engage diverse audiences and explore a variety of topics in the history of medicine. NLM seeks to support host venues by presenting interesting stories that stimulate people's enthusiasm for history and encourage young people to consider careers in history, education, museum and the health professions. Each exhibit includes free online educational materials for the K-12 classroom as well as higher education. Many libraries across the country are hosting the Native Voices: Native Peoples' Concepts of Health and Illness through an arrangement between NLM and ALA over the next four years. Other exhibits include: * For All the People: A Century of Citizen Action in Health Care Reform * Confronting Violence: Improving Women's Lives * Frankenstein: Penetrating the Secrets of Nature * Life and Limb: The Toll of the American Civil War Come join us for the PNR Rendezvous this Wednesday April 20 at 1:00pm Pacific Time to hear about this wonderful resource that can benefit your institution and community.

We collected some really useful information, which I turned into the attached PowerPoint presentation. Thank you to all of the library directors who participated! If you'd like to view the complete survey responses or did not receive the attachment, please e-mail me so I can get this information to you. My personal reaction to the results is a "yes and" situation: As a state, we need to increase and support bilingual/bicultural library staff members AND provide better support to existing library staff members of all language abilities/cultural backgrounds who want to provide high-quality services to their Spanish-speaking communities.

Title: Do We Need a Climate Change? Where Diversity Meets the Academic Library and Archives Environment ?Date: ? Thursday, April 21st 2:00PM Pacific Daylight Time Location: Online via Blackboard Collaborate ?Abstract: ? Diversity, multi-culturalism, critical race theory, aversive racism, and micro-aggressions are all buzz words that we hear about and note the rolling eyes when mentioned. Aren?t we past the need to consider these issues: ?We have a Black president,? or are we ?post racial?? If so, why are we still having issues of diversity? These are the common refrains you hear inside and outside of academia. The library and archives environment are no exception to displaying ?diversity fatigue.? This colloquium will discuss some of the concerns and reasons why diversity is not a settled issue and needs to be front and center in the library and archival professions. For more information about this colloquium, please visit the Colloquia web page ? here: http://ischool.sjsu.edu/about/colloquia/Spring%202016 Session Link: ? https://sas.elluminate.com/d.jnlp?sid=2011274&password=D.BA690C80B4759639C851D16AF05E9C ??We look forward to seeing you! -Kristen *Kristen Radsliff Rebmann, Ph.D., MLIS*Associate Professor, School of Information San Jos?

But do teachers in your district use other apps, such as ClassDojo or Edmodo? What data might be vulnerable when students and parents use a school district app for news and events? As reported by the Star-Telegram, parents and school administrators in Fort Worth, Texas are grappling with this very issue. And how does FERPA intersect with apps used by educators, students, and parents? Many of us are familiar with FERPA, which protects the sharing of students' educational records and COPPA, enacted to safeguard online privacy of children under 13. However, neither law recommends specific security standards (CoSN, n.d.). With recurring revelations about security weaknesses in apps and other software, one wonders why products are not regularly rated on their security and privacy, especially those used for educational purposes. What are problems with apps? When using the web, it is easy to determine whether data is encrypted by looking for the https in the URL, but whether data in apps is encrypted is more challenging to detect. While apps with security issues are getting attention in the media, protecting users' privacy may not be a priority for software developers who want to release their products quickly (Singer, 2015, February 8). Teachers may use apps in the classroom that have not been officially adopted or vetted by a district. In 2015 Oregon passed the Oregon Student Information Protection Act, which will become effective July 1, 2016. The law applies to K-12 schools and dictates what educational technology companies may do with student data and requires that security measures be in place. Resources for Evaluating Apps What resources can librarians use to educate on these issues and help teachers, students, parents, and school leaders identify secure apps? * Common Sense Media App Reviews An independent non-profit organization "dedicated to empowering kids to thrive in a world of media and technology" has reviewed thousands of apps. Reviewers consider educational value, its consumer focus, language, violence, and sex, and they highlight privacy concerns and provide tips for maximizing apps' privacy settings. While reviewed apps are youth-centric, information on popular "adult" apps such as Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat, and Tinder, along with lesser known apps, such as Telegram Messenger and Yeti - Campus Stories, is also available. They also promote digital citizenship through their curriculum. Materials could be adapted by college and public librarians to meet the needs of those populations. * Student Privacy Pledge This voluntary program gives K-12 school service providers an opportunity to pledge their commitment to protecting student information and be transparent about their data sharing policies. Companies that sign the agreement are accountable to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) if they do not adhere to pledge guidelines. Click the Signatories link to view a list of complying companies. * Secure Messaging Scorecard This Electronic Frontier Foundation initiative helps educate people on which messaging apps and software encrypt their data and apply other data safeguards. A clear chart indicates what data is secure and whether security design has been properly documented. * Virtual Privacy Lab (San Jose Public Library) The SJPL allows users to create a custom toolkit to help users protect their privacy online. While not specific to apps, one module is devoted to social media and online sharing. Intended for all ages, the language used in the lab is probably sophisticated enough to be best suited to high school students and adults. * Security Questions (Consortium for School Networking) CoSN is a national association of school district chief technology officers which has provided questions related to security to ask of software providers. Membership is required to access most resources, but the linked handout alerts stakeholders about issues to consider when evaluating software. Many districts, such as the Houston Independent School District, are also conducting their own reviews of apps and are making that information available online. Conclusion Teachers and students can use apps effectively to stay organized, communicate, and participate in engaging learning experiences, but let's ensure they are using tools that also protect students' information.

"The Library of Congress has never more needed the unique combination of character, acumen and humanity that Dr. Carla Hayden is so professionally, intellectually and personally qualified to offer that great institution. We urge her earliest possible approval by the Rules Committee and rapid confirmation by the Senate," said more than 20 leading national nonprofit organizations in the below letter. Nonprofit supporters were also joined by two dozen educational institutions (ranging from community colleges to the Big Ten and Ivy League); two dozen academic libraries from every corner of the country; more than a score of national library groups; and virtually all of the nation?s state library associations. Organized by the American Library Association (ALA), of which Dr. Hayden is a past-president, the letter was transmitted late yesterday to the members of the Senate Rules Committee which today holds its confirmation hearing on her nomination to become America?s 14th Librarian of Congress. ALA President Sari Feldman previously said of Dr. Hayden?s nomination: ?The President could not have made a better choice. Hats off to President Obama for nominating Dr. Hayden, a professional librarian uniquely positioned with the leadership and management skills and understanding of digital technology to make the Library of Congress the preeminent national library in the world, highly-valued by and serving all Americans as a treasured resource. We look forward to working closely with her to further librarians? bedrock principle that all Americans everywhere deserve and must have equitable access to the information that they need to succeed and lead productive lives in the digital age.?

Became Asian Americans * by author Karen Ishizuka Thursday, April 21 1:30pm Benson Hall 117 *FREE!* *Serve the People** Tells How ?Orientals? Became Asian Americans * ?There was a time, Karen Ishizuka reminds us, when the word ?Asian American? was not merely a demographic category, but a fight you were picking with the world.? -- From the foreword by Jeff Chang, author of *Who We Be: A Cultural History of Race in Post-Civil Rights America * Until the late 1960s and 1970s, there were no Asian Americans. There were only isolated communities of mostly Chinese, Japanese, and Filipinos lumped together as ?Orientals.? Karen Ishizuka?s new book, *Serve the People: Making Asian America in the Long Sixties* - released by Verso Books on March 1, 2016 - tells the history of how and why the yoke of ?oriental? was shed and Asian America came to be. Ishizuka?s vivid narrative reveals profound insights and intimate stories of movers and shakers as well as ground-level activists. Drawing on more than 120 interviews and illustrated with striking images from guerrilla movement publications, the book evokes the feeling of growing up alien in a society rendered only in black and white, and recalls the intricate memories and meanings of the Asian American movement. By painting a panoramic yet personal landscape of a momentous time, *Serve the People* fills out the history of the Sixties and Seventies and is destined to become the definitive book on the making of Asian America. ?With meticulous research and more than a hundred interviews, Karen Ishizuka traces the links between Yellow Power and other radical movements. This engaging book breaks through to new levels of insight into this still-neglected movement of far-reaching influence.? ? Helen Zia, author of *Asian American Dreams: The Emergence of an American People* ?Karen Ishizuka deftly captures a generation of activist voices from San Francisco to Los Angeles, Seattle to New York. This thoughtful history chronicles a movement just as significant as the Black and Chicano movements and provides a revelatory insight into what it means to be American.? ? Jes?s Trevi?o, author of *Eyewitness: A Filmmaker?s Memoir of the Chicano Movement* ?*Serve the People* describes beautifully not merely the making of a people but an entire era. People of color, women, queer people, students, and the working class altered US history by making the nation more democratic and aware of its imperialism. This is a work of immense significance.? - Gary Y. Okihiro, author of *American History Unbound: Asians and Pacific Islanders* ?*Serve the People* chronicles the hard-fought history of a new awareness?the story of how we became Asian America.? --Phil Yu, *Angry Asian Man* See http://www.versobooks.com/books/1899-serve-the-people for more information. *Author Bio*: Karen L. Ishizuka is a Sansei who was part of the Asian American movement in Los Angeles. She is the author of *Lost & Found: Reclaiming the Japanese American Incarceration *(University of Illinois Press, 2006) as well as many published articles, and coeditor of *Mining the Home Movie*:* Excavations in Histories and Memories *(University of California Press, 2007). An award-winning documentary film producer and museum curator, she helped establish the Japanese American National Museum in Los Angeles and, together with Robert A. Nakamura will be honored at their Gala Dinner on March 19, 2016. She received her Ph.D. in anthropology from the University of California, Los Angeles and previously a MSW from San Diego State University. _______________________________________________ UWMOSAIC mailing list UWMOSAIC at u.washington.edu http://mailman12.u.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/uwmosaic -- The ideas expressed in these emails in no way represent any organization's viewpoints, or opinions.

Community members are invited to?help build the Oregon State plan for the new federal Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) which replaces No Child Left Behind. ESSA allows Oregon to create a State Plan with increased flexibility in assessment, accountability, school improvement and educator effectiveness.? A couple of forums have already taken place, but there are upcoming ones in Coos Bay, Eugene, Hood River, Portland, Ontario, Redmond, and Salem. This is a chance to advocate for what you value in education. If you want to discuss the role of strong school library programs, know that libraries are specifically included in ESSA. ODE published a list of forum locations and dates and a proposed agenda. Another way to have a voice in ESSA in Oregon is to send an email to ESSA.Oregon at state.or.us. Emails to that account will reach ODE staff. ODE created four ESSA work groups: Standards and Assessment, Accountability, School and District Improvement, and Educator Effectiveness. Reviewing each group?s charter might help you prepare for speaking at a forum, sending an email, or responding to a survey. In the next few weeks, ODE is expected to send out surveys specific to the work of the four ESSA work groups. When I get word about that, I?ll post to the OASL listserv and will try to remember to forward that. There is also a different survey, this one from Oregon Rising. That project is affiliated with the Confederation of Oregon School Administrators, Oregon Education Association, and Oregon School Boards Association. While it is not sponsored by ODE, I suspect results will eventually reach ODE staff. Oregon Rising describes itself as ?a public outreach effort about what Oregonians want for their children and their schools. At the heart of our work is the prompt to dream big. In the first phase, we ask that you describe the education Oregon students would receive, if it were up to you.? Questions? Please ask.

To: "alacro-l at lists.ala.org" The Public Innovators Lab for Libraries, co-hosted by The Harwood Institute and the American Library Association , is a 2.5-day training to help library professionals learn how to Turn Outward and make more intentional choices in their work. Get off the path of the status quo, learn to Turn Outward and use the community as the reference point for your actions, and get on an alternate path of possibility and hope. *WHO SHOULD COME?* The Lab is most suited for public and academic library directors and library staff that are responsible for interacting with the community, developing and implementing programs, and working with library supporters. We encourage libraries to bring teams. *WHAT WILL I LEARN? * - How to listen to and understand the community your library serves - How to use what you are learning to improve your library's programs and initiatives - How your library can help your community solve problems and improve the way people and organizations work together - What it means to hold genuine authority, authenticity and accountability in your work - and how you can stay true to those values *WHAT WILL I GET?* - Access to more than 2,000 public innovators worldwide through our Public Innovators Listserv - Three months of weekly tools, real world case studies, and tips on using what you?ve learned plus our monthly newsletter and Rich Harwood?s blog - A Public Innovator Toolkit print ready for you to use with your staff and partners - A library of videos that you can use to spread what it means to Turn Outward *THE FORMAT* Be prepared to work! The Lab is intensive, will require you to think through real scenarios and apply your own challenges to the frameworks and tools being presented. It's not for passive learners. There will be group work, projects, small discussions, reflection time, and loads of application. Click here for a basic Lab agenda. *HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?* - $1,495 for the first person from your library - $995 for additional registrants The fee covers your materials, a license to use the content with your colleagues and local partners, your training, and breakfasts and lunches during the training. *Travel expenses, hotel and dinners are separate.* Register Today! Space is limited and reserved on a first come, first served basis. We hope to see you in Atlanta!

The Digest's purpose is to provide a compilation of statistical information covering the broad field of education from prekindergarten through graduate school. The Digest contains data on a variety of topics, including the number of schools and colleges, teachers, enrollments, and graduates, in addition to educational attainment, finances, and federal funds for education, libraries, and international comparisons. Key findings appearing in the Digest include: Fall 2014 marked a new record for public elementary school enrollment, according to projections. Public elementary enrollments are expected to continue increasing, with an overall increase of 7 percent between 2014 and 2024. Public secondary enrollment is expected to increase 3 percent between 2014 and 2024. Between 1990 and 2013, the status dropout rate-that is, the percentage of 16- to 24-year-olds who have not completed high school and are not enrolled in school-declined from 12.1 to 6.8 percent. Although the status dropout rate declined for both Blacks and Hispanics during this period, their rates (7.3 and 11.7 percent, respectively) remained higher than the rate for Whites (5.1 percent) in 2013. Between fall 2000 and fall 2010, enrollment in 2-year and 4-year colleges rose 37 percent, from 15.3 million to 21.0 million. Enrollment then decreased 3 percent to 20.4 million in fall 2013. >From 1976 to 2013, the percentage of Hispanic college students rose from 4 percent to 16 percent, the percentage of Asian/Pacific Islander students rose from 2 percent to 6 percent, the percentage of Black students rose from 10 percent to 15 percent, and the percentage of American Indian/Alaska Native students rose from 0.7 to 0.8 percent. Americans are completing more years of education. The percentage of 25- to 29-year-olds who had completed high school rose from 87 percent in 2004 to 91 percent in 2014. During the same time period, the percentage of young adults with a bachelor's or higher degree increased from 29 percent to 34 percent.

Crossroads highlights new articles on WebJunction.org, including upcoming webinars and new course content. Subscribe today and be part of the online learning community! Latest Topics from WebJunction * Host Learning Circles for Greater Online Learning Success - Most libraries offer programs that bring patrons together to learn, and many offer access to online learning programs, but what about bringing patrons together as a community around online learning? That's the thinking of Peer 2 Peer University (P2PU) and the Chicago Public Library (CPL), who over the past year created the concept of Learning Circles and have explored the possibilities, built the tools and tested their theories at more than a dozen branches of CPL. * Closing the Knowledge Gap: WebJunction ran a poll last month asking about the job responsibilities that weren't covered in your training to become library staff. Check out the responses (spoiler alert - managing a budget and supervising were high on the list.) WebJunction has free resources in many of these areas and are adding more all the time! Upcoming Webinars If you can't attend a live session, all WebJunction webinars are recorded and available for free in the course catalog. Introducing Learning Circles: Online Learning, Offline Tuesday, May 3, 2016 / 12 pm Pacific / 1 hour Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/introducing-learning-circles.html Learning Circles offer a solution to the isolation of online learning by creating study groups for learners who want to take their online courses together, in-person. Developed by Chicago Public Library and P2PU, these librarian-facilitated study groups meet weekly in the library for 6-8 weeks to work through online courses in subjects ranging from resume writing to public speaking to web design. Participants experience the value of sharing strategies, progress and companionship with peers, all in a low-stress environment. Join presenters Grif Peterson of P2PU and Kate Lapinski of Chicago Public Library to learn more details and recent highlights of the program. If you decide that Learning Circles could work at your library, you can take advantage of the P2PU open source toolkit for librarians and practitioners around the world who want to start running Learning Circles in their community. Presented by: Grif Peterson, Learning Lead, P2PU; and Kate Lapinski, Learning & Economic Advancement Librarian, Chicago Public Library Genealogy Essentials: Helping Patrons to Search for Family Roots Thursday, May 19, 2016 / 12 pm Pacific / 1 hour Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/genealogy-essentials.html The advent of the Internet liberated genealogy research. With the resulting ease of access, individual genealogy exploration has blossomed. However, many people pay for research services, not realizing that they can go to their public library for free, reliable tools and assistance. This webinar will teach library staff how to assist patrons with genealogical questions, using FamilySearch.org, a leading genealogy resource. Learn the reference skills necessary to determine a patron's research experience and reveal the problem to be solved. Learn how to orient patrons to available resources and introduce them to the principles of finding a record for a known ancestor. Become a better guide to your patron researchers and help them to connect successfully with the details and stories of their ancestry.

Do you teach computer classes for seniors? Are patrons bringing in tablets and other devices that have been given to them by grandchildren? Recent research from the Pew Institute shows that only 59% of older adults go online. New technologies can be difficult to learn, and older adultsmay not understand the benefits of using technology. But libraries can help older adults adopt technology in meaningful ways for communication, lifelong learning, and entertainment. Join us for this free webinar to learn how your library can help older adults learn to use new technologies. You will hear from the St. Mary's County Library (Maryland), which is providing older adults with effective training and technology assistance. This library will share examples of successful programming, as well as tips for working with older adults. You will also learn about TechBoomers, a free website that offers technology training tutorials developed specifically for older adults. Come hear examples of how this site is being used by libraries to supplement programs and services, and to help increase staff?s confidence in being able to help patrons. This webinar will be recorded and archived on the TechSoup for Libraries website. Please register for this webinar to receive an email notification when the archive is available.

Winning videos were selected at the state level to be recognized as an official CSLP Teen Video Challenge winner for 2016. For their hard work and creativity, each winner for this year?s competition received a monetary award of $150 and the awards can be used as each winner sees fit. You can watch the winning videos from other states on the CSLP website. You may use any of these videos to promote your own summer reading program! They are great for posting on your website and social media.

The 2017 summer reading theme and slogan will be Build A Better World. Information about participating in the 2017 Teen Video Challenge will be sent out on this listserv next winter.

Hi, The State Librarian has tracked the number of full-time equivalent (FTE) licensed school librarians employed in Oregon public schools since the 1980-81 school year. Recently we also started tracking the number of FTE school library support staff. For figures and a chart related to the 34-year span, see the attached PDF. Here is brief snapshot: School Year Schools Library Support Staff (FTE) Licensed Librarians (FTE) Students Per Licensed Librarian Licensed School Librarians per School (FTE) 1980-81 1,284 n/a 818 547 0.64 2011-12 1,253 697 203 2,763 0.16 2012-13 1,246 681 144 3,915 0.12 2013-14 1,239 688 129 4,396 0.10 2014-15 1,236 718 130 4,391 0.11 Percent Change from 1980 to 2014 - 84.11% +702.74% -82.81% Overall library staffing increased by 3.92% from 2013-14 to 2014-15, and as part of that, the number of licensed librarians increased by .78% while the number of library support staff increased 4.36%. From what I?ve seen and heard, the number of licensed librarians should increase a bit more substantially for next year?s report. All good news. The data comes from the Oregon Department of Education (ODE). Depending on the year, some of the figures are included in the Oregon Statewide Annual Report Card (http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/page/?id=1821) or the last page of the Oregon School Directory (http://www.ode.state.or.us/search/results/?id=227). We ask staff at ODE to fill in any gaps. Note that the staffing information on page 8 of the 2014-15 report card, and for many previous years, combines figures for school library licensed and support staff. When we pointed out that this could be confusing since there is a separate row for general support staff, ODE added a note to the bottom of the chart. Questions? Please ask.
