ALA is promoting a couple of different resources to help libraries with staff training for the 2020 Census which are listed below.

Please also remember that libraries that sign up to be Census Resource Centers<https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/census2020/CRC> here in Oregon will also have access to Oregon-based Census Partnership Specialists to provide in-person training.

Training Presentations
Census has a 2 minute video<https://youtu.be/tunMBo2GifQ> that provides a good basic overview of the 2020 Census and suitable to give staff as an introduction to the Census. A more detailed presentation focused on key facts for library staff is also available from ALA. Both the PowerPoint file<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/sites/ala.org.advocacy/files/content/govinfo/ALA2020CensusPresentationSlides.pptx> and Presenter Notes<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/sites/ala.org.advocacy/files/content/govinfo/ALA2020CensusPresenterNotes.pdf> are available.

These and other resources are also available Census 2020 Resources for Oregon Libraries<https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/census2020/home> guide. New resources are regularly added to this site, so check back to see what's new!
