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.

I just received the attached flier about a special offer on AWE Early Literacy StationTM and AfterSchool EdgeTM for Oregon libraries that are members of the Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP). All public, volunteer, and tribal libraries in Oregon are CSLP members. The offer is valid through June 15, 2016. Cynthia Busse will be hosting an AWE table in the vendor area at the OLA Annual Conference in Bend next week if you would like to talk with her in person about this special offer. You can also ask her questions via phone and email at 281-210-7499 or bussec at awelearning.com. This is not an endorsement. Please remember to follow your library's policies to review all possible resources to make sure they are an appropriate fit for your library and community. If you want to review similar early literacy software/computer products to determine if AWE is right for your library, this email about four similar resources may be a good place to start. Ready to Read grant funds may be used to purchase early literacy software/computers, but remember that Ready to Read's early literacy grants may only be used to fund projects for children 0-6 years old. Many of these early literacy products are for children up to age 8 or 9 so you can't use Ready to Read to pay for the whole thing. Please contact me for details if you decide to go this route, several libraries have done this before.

Hi, I shared this information on the OASL listserv this week, but I thought others might be interested, too. ?Deputy Superintendent of Public Instruction Salam Noor, in partnership with local education leaders, is asking Oregonians to help reimagine education in our state. 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.

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 wellness and nutrition practices. Currently, there is no comprehensive database of this information, which makes it difficult to assess what practices are best and what resources are most needed. With this survey, we hope to collect information to better support wellness 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 wellness practices. 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/r/oregonasknutritionsurvey. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me at nutritionsurvey at oregonask.org or (503)689-1656 (ask for Malachite Wyld). We will be collecting data through June, 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 share with lawmakers. Please pass this email (and the attachment) 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 wellness and nutrition needs. Once more, here is the link to the survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/oregonasknutritionsurvey Thank you so much for your time and support!

Message-ID: <640435851FD7CB4AB3C4BE0D1963BA2464890F73@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local> Congratulations to Salem Public Library?s Teen Advisory Board and Teen Librarian Sonja Somerville for winning the 2016 teen summer reading video challenge! Watch their winning video online now. The Collaborative Summer Library Program?s (CSLP) Teen Video Challenge is a national competition for teens to get involved with reading and their public library's summer reading program. 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. If you think teens at your library might want to participate in CSLP?s Teen Video Challenge, start planting the idea in their heads now so they?re motivated to create their own video for the 2017 teen summer reading video challenge. 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. Enjoy, Katie All Oregon public, volunteer, and tribal libraries are members of the Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP), and receive a free summer reading manual.

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.
