[http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-hW7EhRs8_Ug/VSRXcI_yE6I/AAAAAAAAAco/5yGif-ByFDA/s1600/index.jpg] Fink, Megan P. (2015). Teen Services 101: A practical Guide for Busy Library Staff. Chicago, IL: American Library Association. 978-0-8389-8803-9. Need to amp up teen services, but you're short on time or not sure where to start? Teen Services 101: A Practical Guide for Busy Library Staff provides useful information that will help staff put together a basic teen services program with minimal time and hassle. The author, Megan Fink, along with contributions from Maria Kramer, provides practical tips and instructions on how to build core teen services into the overall library program. Whether you're a new teen services librarian, or staff in a one person library, this how-to guide on teen services can help you effectively serve teen patrons. Let's face it, teens are sometimes overlooked by libraries when it comes to services and programs. However, there are over 42 million teens in the US, which makes them a sizeable and important demographic to serve. Many of today's teens are struggling. More are living in poverty than before and nearly 7,000 teens drop out of high school per day. By setting aside some time to increase your library's focus on teens, you will be providing a vital service and positioning your library as an indispensable part of the community. The resources and information in this book can help you achieve that. [Slogan Text][Cooper_laughing] Summer Reading 2015 at Oregon libraries! Find a summer food site.

Hi all, In October I'm sharing about Oregon Battle of the Books at the OASL conference, along with school librarians Chris Myers and Libby Hamler-Dupres. I would love to share what public libraries across the state are doing for OBOB. If your library is doing any kind of OBOB programming (elementary - high school) would you please let me know? I will also compile what I receive and send it back out on KidsLib to share. Since our libraries vary so much across the state it always inspires me to see what different libraries are doing. Thank you for sharing, Korie Korie Jones Buerkle Children's Librarian | Assistant Library Director Children's Desk: 503 537 0304 | Office: 503 554 7734 Newberg Public Library Please note: My work week is Tues.-Sat. _____________________________________________________ Kids-lib mailing list Kids-lib at listsmart.osl.state.or.us http://listsmart.osl.state.or.us/mailman/listinfo/kids-lib Hosted by the Oregon State Library.

Last year 14 attempts to ban books, videos, sound recordings and magazines in Oregon libraries were reported to the Oregon Intellectual Freedom Clearinghouse (OIFC). Thirteen of the challenged items were retained in the collection and one was removed from the collection. I encourage you to incorporate this information and/or the titles of the challenged materials in your Banned Books Week displays and activities. Many people may not realize that book banning is not a thing from the past or that attempts to ban books are made every year right here in Oregon. This is a valuable educational opportunity to discuss the nature of the First Amendment-just as we have a right to access these materials in our libraries, we have a right to question whether they are appropriate to include in public collections. * Why might someone find these materials inappropriate? * Why should they remain in the collection? * Is labeling a book an effective way to inform people about content that may not be appropriate for everyone or is it a form of censorship? * What would you do if someone came up to you in your library and said they want you to remove a book from the collection? * Why is a collection development policy the most important line of defense when library materials are challenged? * Does your library have a policy or established procedure for patrons to challenge material? You can find resources that may help you answer these questions at: http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/intellectual.aspx Thanks, Katie Anderson Katie Anderson, Youth Services Consultant Library Support and Development Services Oregon State Library, 250 Winter St. NE, Salem, OR 97301 katie.anderson at state.or.us, 503-378-2528 [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...

(outcome based evaluation explained in different way) Message-ID: <640435851FD7CB4AB3C4BE0D1963BA245EF43836@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local> Back to Afterschool: Why Informal Learning Afterschool By Linda W Braun, August 21, 2015 I just read the this article ALA's Young Adult Library Services Association's blog. Oregon libraries are moving toward outcome based evaluation and it can be difficult to wrap our heads around it. This article does a great job of explaining it in a very different way, not even using the term 'outcome' until the last sentence. Why is this especially of interest to teen librarians? Let's face it, most of you just don't have the numbers that children's services do. You don't get the funding or lots of program slots. You're more frequently asked to justify many of the things you do, especially planning time when only 6 teens show up. Outcome based evaluation levels the numbers playing field because it's about what people get out of the program, it's not about how many people showed up. It's how you justify what you do to get the support you need to do it!
