We are very lucky to be joined this year by author, *Marc Aronson*! Aronson will be doing a special afternoon session for workshop participants, but can be attended independent of the workshop. Aronson won the first Sibert Award in 2001 with his book *Sir Walter Ralegh and the Quest for El Dorado. *He is the leader in the field in writing fantastic nonfiction books for youth of all ages. *Sugar Changed the World: A Story of Magic, Spice, Slavery, Freedom, and Science*; *Master of Deceit: J. Edgar Hoover and America in the Age of Lies*; and *If Stones Could Speak: Unlocking the Secrets of Stonehenge* are just a few of his books that have really raised the bar on great nonfiction storytelling that truly inspires readership in youth. Not only does he publish great books for kids, his column with *School Library Journal,* Consider the Source shows librarians the possibilities of nonfiction in their libraries, and he is the expert resource in helping libraries navigate the Common Core standards. With the amount of great nonfiction being published for youth, and the push in schools to use more information texts in curriculum, has there ever been a better time to explore our passion and evaluation skills for great nonfiction? Without further ado, please allow me to introduce: *2014 Children?s Services Division Mock Sibert Workshop* *Saturday December 13**th* *9:00 am ? 3:30 pm* *Wilsonville Library, Wilsonville, OR* Click here to register: The 2015 CSD Mock Sibert Workshop follows up on the long-standing CSD tradition of offering high quality Mock workshops.

American Libraries Digital Supplement, September/October 2014 => School Libraries Transform Learning ? The entire issue is dedicated to identifying and advocating for the value of strong school library programs. ? Here are a few article highlights: o In ?I?m an Expert,? Barbara Stripling gives a good overview of the areas of a strong school library program (printed page 4). o In ?Reimagining Advocacy for School Libraries,? Barbara Stripling offers a ?framework of action steps that can be useful for the whole spectrum of advocacy efforts? (printed page 8). o In ?Creating Coalitions,? the authors give examples of how partnerships, including those with parents, have helped school libraries and their programs (printed page 20). o In ?Building Advocacy Before a Crisis,? Nancy Everhart and Marcia Mardis offer tips on preparing ahead of time for end-of-year announcements about budget cuts (printed page 26). ? http://edition.pagesuite-professional.co.uk/Launch.aspx?EID=6c7cb940-d8fb-43d8-8ad8-864bf0e83f38 (Read articles online, or use the toolbar to print or download them as PDFs .) Pitching the Library: How to Explain What School Librarians Do ? edWeb webinar on October 15th at 2pm Pacific ? Description: When administrators are faced with challenging budget cuts, they often cut from library programs - often because they don?t understand how strong library programs serve the learning community. This webinar will equip participants with talking points to promote library programs, reframing our work with new language, and dispelling myths about librarianship. ? There is no need to join the Emerging Tech for Your School Library to participate in the webinar, but free membership is the only way to view the archived version. ? http://www.edweb.net/emergingtech Josephine Community Libraries Video Series => My Library Works for Me ? Created as part of an advocacy effort to get stable funding for libraries in Josephine County, Oregon ? Each video is 30 to 50 seconds long = short and to the point ? Could you have students, parents, or other volunteers help you capture key components of your strong school library program? o Perhaps start with areas that focus on school or district-wide goals. Feel good programs are great, but also emphasize instruction. o Once you have at least 4, maybe email one per week for a month to policymakers. o In the email, maybe include standards addressed, evidence of student success, an invitation to come see what the library is doing, etc. ? Don?t have licensed librarians in your school or district? Perhaps you could video other library programs in action to point out what local students might be missing. (More difficult, I know.) ? http://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9q99mB_eXzcGYQSPRCHNTg/videos How Parents Can Advocate for Quality School Library Programs, a new document from the Pennsylvania School Librarians Association ? Categories include organizing; developing your purpose mission, or message; communicating the message; and web resources ? A few quotes from the document? o We need to make a conscious effort to avoid making business decisions personal. It is imperative that we do not back the unfortunate administrators into corners. We do not want to force administrators to rationalize and defend library cuts. We need to continue making connections between the district's educational goals and how the library plays an essential role in meeting those goals [from AASL Crisis Toolkit, quoted in document]. o Messages have to be about students and student learning; they cannot be about the jobs of librarians. Schools are not in the business of employing librarians; they are about students and learning [from AASL Crisis Toolkit, quoted in document]. ? http://lgdata.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/docs/2788/733247/HowParentscanbeAdvocates-Handout.pdf ?Standing Up for School Libraries: Trusted Resource Under Siege by Budget Cuts, Testing Restraints? in April/May 2014 edition of Our Children, the national PTA magazine ? ALA President and former school librarian, Barbara Stripling, explains to parents what they should expect in a school library program ? A few quotes from the article, besides what was said about developing a culture of literacy? o Today?s school librarians also teach critical new literacy skills to enable young people to evaluate and make sense of text presented in all formats, and to be producers and communicators of ideas, not just consumers of information. o School librarians nourish a culture of inquiry by teaching students the essential critical-thinking and information skills to be independent and lifelong learners. o School librarians help students and teachers use the latest technology tools effectively for personal and academic learning, communication, production, and collaboration. ? http://www.ptaourchildren.org/ourchildren/april_may_2014#pg26 ?Tech Project Changed How We View Our Librarians: School Librarians and Media Specialists are Vital Part of Team Leading Digital Transformation? posted in District Administration in mid-May 2014 ? One author is a district superintendent. ? A few quotes from the article? o Think about the vast resources available on the internet: primary sources, e-books and applications accessible with a click or tap. It is an unbelievable toolbox that, unfortunately, many teachers and curriculum departments don?t know how to leverage. o Enter ?Project Connect??a panel of school leaders working to connect the library, classroom and administration through information technologies. It has changed the way Lincoln Public Schools in Nebraska views its librarians. ? http://www.districtadministration.com/article/tech-project-changed-how-we-view-our-librarians Principals Know: School Librarians are the Heart of the School ? This ?5-minute film features administrators around the country describing the value of the teacher librarian in school culture.? ? Two professors, one who teaches in the library program and the other who teaches pre-service principals, launched the project. ? A few quotes from administrators featured in the video? o Our librarian is a member of our leadership team. She assists with the decision making that the team has to do. o I am not really sure what we would do without that resource . . . I?ve worked in other systems where that is one of the first things that gets cut and I would be holding on to the library teacher kicking and screaming if they told me we had to lose that out of the budget. ? http://blogs.slj.com/neverendingsearch/2014/04/05/principals-know-school-librarians-are-the-heart-of-the-school/ ?Colorado Administrator Forges New Path for School Librarians? posted in Education Week on March 5, 2014 ? A few quotes from the article? o Principals had expressed a strong interest in incorporating more technology into the classroom, said Ms. Bowline, so "it seemed in our mind that the person most ready to take on that responsibility was the teacher-librarian." The newly deployed digital-literacy teachers work alongside regular classroom teachers to help students develop technology and research skills, while media clerks check out books to students and keep the library doors open. o Having Ms. Gibney [librarian] there to co-teach lessons has made Ms. Jankowski [classroom teacher] and her fellow teachers much more likely to try new technologies they otherwise would be intimidated by, Ms. Jankowski said. ? http://www.edweek.org/ew/articles/2014/03/05/23ltlf-bowline.h33.html Dr. Stephen Krashen speaking in defense of libraries at the Los Angeles Unified School District board meeting in February 2014 ? Among other things, he explains how strong school libraries help students overcome poverty factors that affect students? reading abilities. ? ?Access to a library of 500 books or more balances the effect of poverty.? (around 2:20 mark in the video) ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAui0OGfHQY [From Katie: The Oregon Association of School Libraries also put together some resources available on their website: http://www.olaweb.org/oasl-library-advocacy-resources and another group of concerned parents started a School Library Advocacy facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/802268366464689/] If you know of any other articles or resources that fit this theme, please share with OASL members by posting to the listserv.

Below is a great blog post from ALA's Young Adult Library Services Association about creating or improving a teen space with very little money in small libraries. Remember, you don't have to do all of these things... start with what you can do! Katie Anderson, Library Support and Development Services * Youth Services Consultant * Oregon Center for the Book Coordinator * Oregon State Library, 250 Winter St. NE, Salem, OR 97301 katie.anderson at state.or.us, 503-378-2528 [OYAN_logo_clr.JPG] Learn about teen non-fiction books and common core at OLA's Oregon Young Adult Network fall workshop Friday, October 24, 2014 at Multnomah County's Central Library Feed: YALSAblog Posted on: Thursday, July 10, 2014 5:35 PM Author: Rebekah Kamp Subject: Little Space, Big Potential: Teen Services in a Rural Library [Belgrade Community Library Teen Zone] Belgrade Community Library Teen Zone In 2005, my community constructed a much needed 5,500 square foot library addition. The floor plan included space for materials, a community room, and storage, but it lacked something very important-an area for teens. Young adults browsed the collection, checked out items, then zipped right out the front door. As we turned our attention to youth programming, we realized the room was not helping our efforts. We wanted to encourage teens to linger, to come to the library because it was a safe, comfortable place. It was time for a Teen Zone. With very little money and very little floor space, the library created a comfortable area that is frequently used by local middle and high school students to read, socialize, study, play computer games and craft. Here is how we did it: * Paint - Even with limited space, you can create a defined area using paint. Belgrade teens voted on a color for the Teen Zone, and the shade "legendary blue" (aquamarine) won by a landslide. We complimented the vibrant color with a gray accent wall and black chalk board paint. By letting the teens pick the primary color, the library created a striking, teen-friendly look. If you are worried about ending up with florescent green, I recommend picking three or four shades everyone can live with before opening up the vote. * Shelf placement - Originally, the teen shelves were placed back to back in one long row parallel to a wall of windows. Simply reorienting the shelves freed up a ton of room, allowed more natural light, and eliminated a hidden nook. Moving shelves is tedious, but you can make sure everything fits by tracing plans with masking tape on the floor before actually shifting. * Furniture - Comfy chairs can become the most expensive part of the project if you are not careful. We searched the clearance list for durable, mobile furniture, and came up with modern looking wedges that match the feel of our space. The furniture is simple to clean, stack, and move around. Mobility has been the most important feature. Because the space is small, we occasionally host activities like Wii and DIY tech projects in a different space. The wedges come with us. [Shelf labels] Shelf labels made with public domain comic books. * Art - Windows cover an entire wall in our teen area so hanging space is limited. We decided to focus on recrafting our directional signs to add more color and visual interest. Using public domain comic books, I created colorful, visually appealing shelf labels. They are easy to read and are fun to look at. For more temporary displays, we installed a cork board. We also invested in a metal Teen Zone sign to pull the whole area together. * And an unanticipated feature...floor coverings - Several months after creating the space, we purchased interlocking foam tiles in compatible colors and arranged them in a checker board pattern on the floor. Like many other libraries, we are exploring DIY and maker programs, and with hands-on discovery comes a bit of a mess. The tiles protect the carpet and minimize anxieties regarding spilled paint and sticky substances. They are also durable because they are made to go under exercise equipment. For more ideas on how to create an effective teen space, take a look at YALSA's Teen Space Guidelines. You don't need a large budget to make many of the suggestions a reality. Do you live in a rural area and have a teen zone? Did you create a teen space on a shoestring budget? Tell us about your space in the comments!

The latest issue of YALSA Enews included this article/link. Please take a minute to read the proposal and, if you like it, 'applaud' it. It seems like a good idea to me! Susan ------------------------- *Take 10 Seconds to Help YALSA Help You & Your Teens!* YALSA and our Future of Teens & Libraries Taskforce are participating in a competitive grant challenge for libraries hosted by the Knight Foundation. If funded, YALSA's project would help libraries improve their overall teen program by providing them with free tools and resources to incorporate connected learning into their existing services. In order for this to have a chance at getting funded, the proposal needs to get a significant number of 'applauds' and comments. We encourage you to 'applaud' the proposal and/or leave a comment, but also to take a moment to share this link out with your library networks, advocates and colleagues and ask them to leave a comment or give us some applause as well. The post is open to comments and applause until* Oct. 21st*, so timing is limited! Thank you in advance for your support!

To change this and increase the amount of reading parents do with their young children during the summer, we will create summer reading displays and booklists targeting families with young children. We will also provide an activity sheet to encourage parents to read aloud and do other early literacy activities with their pre-readers. * Working with our Early Learning Hub, the library will help provide early literacy skills training to community partners who work directly with young children. This is one area that has been identified as a desired service through our community partner survey. * The English Language Learners teacher at the elementary school thinks Playaway(r) and book packs will encourage additional reading practice at home. In consultation with the ELL teacher, the library will identify appropriate beginning reader titles that support students' language acquisition and reading goals to create Playaway(r) book packs that will be promoted by the library during regular classroom visits. * This year we purchased a few early learning games and activities. They were very well received and popular with local preschool and kindergarten teachers because the games and activities are perfect for setting up learning centers in classrooms and in the library. Games and activities focus on number and letter recognition, phonological awareness, rhyming, and writing readiness. Therefore, we plan to expand the collection next year. * The school administrator and Title 1 teachers have agreed to promote summer reading to their students. The Title 1 teachers will fill out a short survey on their students reading skills when they return to school in the fall. * Using the Collaborative Summer Library Program, we will provide improved access to low-income children who lack transportation to the library by: o Implementing additional activities on-site in parks where the free lunch program is provided. o Providing additional schedule options (Fridays, Saturdays, and evenings) when Migrant Summer School is not in session and children in childcare may be able to attend with family members. o Outreach to schools with more than 75% free and reduced lunch eligibility. o Diversify our activities to include more hands-on and activity-based programs, in addition to high-quality professional performances, with bilingual staff coordinating participation to increase accessibility for Spanish speaking participants. * We will utilize our strong relationship with the local elementary school to share information about children who signed up for and completed the summer reading program. Our goal is to share with the principal the names of their students who completed the SRP. Principals will be encouraged to combine this data with their data on reading assessments from last Spring to this Fall to track the impact of summer reading on participating students' reading levels or test scores. We will ask principals to report back to us aggregate data on participating students (X% of students who completed the summer reading program maintained or improved their reading level). * Coordinate with Head Start and public preschools to present a series of family storytimes designed to model effective reading practices and will provide mobile checkout of library materials on site at the programs. * We will visit a migrant worker housing facility once a week during the summer to implement the summer reading program. We will present books and stories to the children who live there, and hire performers to visit. We will sign them up for the summer reading program and monitor their progress. At the end of summer we will have a party which will include giving them a prize book and a t-shirt for finishing the program. * Our library's mission is to engage, connect and inspire library users of all ages in our community. At each storytime we will encourage families to sign-up for 1000 Books Before Kindergarten. To emphasize how many books we read together in a year, we will place an apple on a decorative tree on the wall for each book read during storytime and we will celebrate milestones. Along with filling out their reading logs, children who participate in 1000 Books Before Kindergarten will work towards completing a personalized book, "My Story", that documents their journey through the 1000 Books experience. * Parent may mark on their adult summer reading logs if they are a "Reading Partner" with their child. * We will offer "double points" for families who read together. For example, if a parent reads to their child or a child reads to their parent both the child and parent can mark "double points" on their respective reading logs. * For projects that have a take-home component, such as crystal formation and color-changing cut flowers, invite families to comment/post photos of their completed creations to the library's FaceBook page or a bulletin board set up in the children's section. * Youth will be provided a list of contact names and places where they can volunteer. Volunteer time can be recorded in their reading log. To kick off this activity, the Community Connections director will visit the library and share what opportunities there are for youth involvement in the community. Other local service people will be invited to the library to share their services to the community throughout the summer.

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

Intellectual Freedom for Teens: A Practical Guide for Young Adult and School Librarians. Chicago, IL: ALA Editions. 978-0-8389-1200-3 Year after year a majority of the titles on ALA's Banned Books list, which compiles titles threatened with censorship, are either YA books or adult books that are frequently read by teens. It's important for YA librarians to understand the types of challenges occurring in libraries around the nation and to be ready to deal with such challenges when they occur. The Young Adult Library Services (YALSA) has tailored this book specifically for these situations, providing much-needed guidance on the highly charged topic of intellectual freedom for teens. Among the issues addressed are * How to prepare yourself and your staff for potential challenges by developing a thoughtful selection policy and response plan * Resources for help when a challenge occurs * The art of crafting a defense for a challenged book, and pointers for effectively disseminating your response through the press and social media * The latest on intellectual freedom in the digital realm, including an examination of library technology Using examples of censorship battles in both school and public libraries to illustrate possible scenarios, this guidebook gives YA librarians the foreknowledge and support to ensure intellectual freedom for teens.

Books Under Fire: A Hit List of Banned and Challenged Children's Books. Chicago, IL: ALA Editions. 978-0-8389-1109-9 Many things have changed since ALA's Office for Intellectual Freedom (OIF) was founded in 1967, but not everything: the most beloved and popular children's books are still among the most frequent targets of censorship and outright bans. Limiting access to controversial titles such as Captain Underpants, The Dirty Cowboy, Blubber, or Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark or leaving them out of a library's collection altogether is not the answer to challenges. In this important book, Scales gives librarians the information and guidance they need to defend challenged books with an informed response while ensuring access to young book lovers. Spotlighting dozens of "hot button" titles written for young children through teens, this book * Gives a profile of each book that covers its plot, characters, published reviews, awards and prizes, and author resources * Recounts past challenges and how they were faced, providing valuable lessons for handling future situations, plus a list of other books challenged for similar reasons * Provides discussion ideas for planning programming around banned books, whether in reading groups, classrooms, or other settings * Includes an appendix of additional resources for librarians who find themselves enmeshed in a challenge With this guide at hand, library managers, children's and YA librarians, and other library staff will be prepared to champion intellectual freedom for young people.

They were distributed to those attending the CSD Fall Workshop, and I will be taking them to the OYAN Fall workshop as well. Then those that haven't been able to be distributed at the workshops will be sent off through the mail. It has just been brought to our attention that there has been an unexpected change with the CDs-- both with those that accompany the print manual and the separate sets. Though each have 4 discs, those individual discs no longer contain the same information. They are broken down into the four targeted age groups. This may change how you use the discs. Please know that you are able to download the information from the discs to your computer, then pass the discs onto other colleagues. I will ask about this during the CSLP Annual Meeting in the spring so that we know what to expect in for the 2016 manuals.

OregonASK is working with the Afterschool Alliance to create a database for STEM out-of-school programs for K-12th graders and a report on STEM programs to lawmakers. If you want your library's STEM program(s) to be included in the STEM database and report to lawmakers, then decide amongst your co-workers which one person from your library will provide the information about your STEM program(s). That one person should submit information about your library's STEM programming by taking this survey by November 3, 2014. Detailed information about the survey is below and answers to frequently asked questions are attached. Questions about the survey should be directed to Katie Lakey, stemsurvey at oregonask.org, 971-282-5325.

Hello, My name is Katie Lakey, and I am an AmeriCorps VISTA (Volunteer in Service to America) working with Beth Unverzagt and Oregon Afterschool for Kids (OregonASK). If you are not familiar with us, we are a collaboration of public and private organizations that advocate for afterschool programs and professionals in the state of Oregon. There is more information on us, and our partners the Afterschool Alliance, at the end of this email if you would like to know more. OregonASK, in partnership with the Afterschool Alliance, is conducting a statewide survey of out-of-school time programs that offer science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) opportunities to school and college-aged students. Currently, there is no comprehensive database of out-of-school time STEM programs in Oregon, which makes it difficult to assess where programs are located, what resources they might need, and where the demand for more STEM programs is the greatest. With this survey, we hope to create such a database and use the information to better support STEM in out-of-school-time. Data from this survey will be used to create a report that will be shared with lawmakers in order to promote legislation and funding to support out-of-school STEM programs. We greatly appreciate you taking a few minutes to help us in this endeavor. If you are a program director or manager, please complete the survey by following https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/oregonstemsurvey. We have also attached to this email a short informational sheet about the survey and a list of FAQs. Please read through these, and if you have other questions, feel free to contact Katie Lakey at stemsurvey at oregonask.org or 971-282-5325. We will be collecting data through November, so you may see this email from us more than once. We don't want to pester you, but we do want to be thorough and collect the best possible data to use with lawmakers. If you are not a program director or site manager, you can still help! Please pass this email (with the attachments) along to any out-of-school programs you might know and ask them to complete the survey. We are casting a broad net and trying to collect information on as many programs as possible. The more comprehensive our data is, the better we will be able to advocate with lawmakers on the behalf of out-of-school time STEM programs. Once more, here is the link to the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/oregonstemsurvey Thank you so much for your time and support! Katie Lakey stemsurvey at oregonask.org 971-282-5325 More information about OregonASK and the Afterschool Alliance: The mission of OregoASK is to support, expand, and advocate for quality out-of-school time programs and activities for children, youth, and families throughout Oregon.
