From katie.anderson at state.or.us Tue Mar 1 08:45:06 2016 From: katie.anderson at state.or.us (Katie Anderson) Date: Tue, 1 Mar 2016 16:45:06 +0000 Subject: [OYAN] What are you going to say next time someone asks what you do and/or why it's important? Message-ID: <640435851FD7CB4AB3C4BE0D1963BA246483D428@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local> Sometimes we're at a loss when asked to explain the value of our work or to briefly describe are job... which includes dozens of different types of tasks many people can't even imagine. We can actually do both in one sentence if we think a head, and we can prepare a couple different sentences depending on our mood or potential audience. This can be very powerful for our patrons and other stakeholders as well as for us... reminding ourselves what we love about our work and why it's important to us. Read the instructions and examples on ALA's Association for Library Services to Children's website and the email below to learn specifically about creating a diversity elevator speech. Here are two elevator speeches I created for myself this morning in about 10 minutes as an example: * General: I help librarians learn about best practices to improve youth services so underserved children and teens have more opportunities to keep up academically with their better-off peers. * Diversity specific: I help librarians access resources to increase and improve diversity in their collections so every child and teen can find books that will inspire them, that they can relate to, and that reflect the diverse world in which they live. Next time someone with influence in your community asks you what you do or why it's important, what are you going to say? Good luck!

While opportunities to participate are only available to those associated with school districts right now, I thought some of you might want to know what?s going on. Hi. I thought some of you might be interested in the press release below from the Oregon Department of Education. ODE (Oregon) has joined #GoOpen with other ?states from across the country in committing to support the use of high-quality, openly licensed educational resources in our schools.? So far, Beaverton is the only Launch district listed, but Carla Wade from ODE told me that other districts are welcome to participate. The press release did not mention Oregon?s involvement in the K-12 OER (open educational resources) Collaborate that ODE announced in February 2015, so I asked Carla about that, too. This is her response: ?The K-12 OER Collaborative work is one part of what we are doing. The first step was joining the exchange. Next we will be building a plan and implementing usage of OER. It will be very important to have libraries involved!? She read my mind with that last statement, and that?s why I?m alerting you. If you?re interested in lending your expertise and time to the OER cause, you might want to find out what your district is doing in that area.

Today Deputy Superintendent Salam Noor announced the launch of a new statewide #GoOpen initiative. Oregon is joining states from across the country in committing to support the use of high-quality, openly licensed educational resources in our schools. Oregon was recognized today for its leadership by the U.S. Department of Education at the #GoOpen Exchange, a gathering of state and district leaders, innovative education technology providers, and non-profit organizations working together to support educators transition to using openly licensed resources. ?Access to high-quality, openly-licensed education resources improve teaching and learning in our state,? Deputy Superintendent Noor said. ?We are excited to become a member of the #GoOpen Exchange Community as we continue to build on the good work currently underway in our state and increase access to these resources in Oregon schools.? Oregon was recognized for its commitment to a statewide technology strategy that includes the use of openly-licensed resources as a central component, developing and maintaining a statewide repository for openly licensed resources, and participating in a community of practice with other #GoOpen states and districts to share learning and professional development resources. More information on Oregon?s #GoOpen commitment can be found on the Oregon Educator Network website at http://www.oregonednet.org/groups/go-open. ?States are powerful collaborators in supporting and scaling innovation,? says Joseph South, Director of the Office of Educational Technology at the U.S. Department of Education. ?They can connect forward thinking educators, share effective ideas and approaches widely, amplify successes, and can support districts in leveraging limited resources. With the launch of statewide #GoOpen initiatives, states are helping districts thoughtfully transition to a new model of learning by facilitating the creation of an open ecosystem of digital resources that can increase equity and empower teachers.? Openly licensed educational resources have enormous potential to increase equitable access to high-quality education opportunities in Oregon and throughout the United States.

Message-ID: <640435851FD7CB4AB3C4BE0D1963BA246483EA46@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local> Make a Splash with Project Outcome: Measuring the Success of Summer Reading Programs Thursday, March 17 at 11:00am-12:00pm This free webinar is designed to teach participants how to administer Project Outcome surveys to measure outcomes for their library's summer reading program. By successfully administering surveys, libraries will be able to use the results to showcase program successes and influence future summer reading programs. Participants will hear from one Project Outcome participant who successfully surveyed their summer reading program in 2015 and learned valuable lessons from the process. There will also be a Q&A and discussion segment where participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and share ideas with their peers. Takeaways At the conclusion of this webinar, participants will: * Understand how to successfully measure summer reading programs using the Project Outcome Summer Reading survey; * Know how to apply best practices for summer reading surveying; and * Be able to use the results to influence changes to future summer programming. Who Should Attend This webinar is open to everyone, but will be most beneficial for those already registered with Project Outcome. Project Outcome is a free service provided by the Public Library Association. If you would like to enroll in Project Outcome in advance of the webinar, please do so at www.projectoutcome.org and view our "How to Enroll in Project Outcome" webinar for training. What is Project Outcome Project Outcome is a national program designed to help public libraries evaluate the impact library services and programs have on people and communities. Read the following email for details. Project Outcome would be a great tool to use to evaluate your Ready to Read grant projects-both summer reading and early literacy projects!

Project Outcome for public libraries is a no-cost resource that may help! If you answer "yes" to any of the following questions, then Project Outcome might be right for your public library! * Do you have anxiety about conducting a proper outcome based evaluation? * Does your public library need to do outcome based evaluation, but you don't have the time or resources to do it from scratch? * Are you struggling to find a good survey tool to gather information about your programs for outcome based evaluation reports? * Are you unsure how to effectively analyze and present the results of an outcome based evaluation? * Are you considering paying to subscribe to Impact Survey? Project Outcome is free for public libraries until at least 2017 (maybe longer!) and also gives public libraries free access to Impact Survey. Learn more: https://www.projectoutcome.org/ Interested in trying Project Outcome? Talk with your library director about it. All public library directors should have received this email on 11/5/2015. If you want more information about how Project Outcome aligns with what's going on in the Oregon public library community, read on! If not, skip the rest of this email. Project Outcome evaluates four desired outcomes across seven types of library services and programs. The four outcomes evaluated are patrons' changes in 1) knowledge, 2) skills, 3) behavior, and 4) attitude as a result of using library services. The seven library service areas these four outcomes are evaluated in are: * Civic/community engagement * Digital inclusion * Early childhood literacy * Economic development * Education and lifelong learning * Job skills * Summer reading As an Oregon public library, you might use Project Outcome to conduct outcome based evaluations associated with: * Edge Initiative (digital inclusion, education and lifelong learning, job skills) * Ready to Read grant (early childhood literacy, summer reading) * Statewide databases (education and lifelong learning, job skills) * Optional: Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) competitive grants (Project Outcome service areas would vary depending on your LSTA grant) Questions about using Project Outcome for statewide programs?

Each certificate is available in .pdf format which everyone should be able to access and .pub format which requires Microsoft Publisher to access. The children's (full color), all ages (black & white), and adult (full color) certificates are bilingual, the teen certificate (full color) is in English only. Ideas to get money for printing certificates locally: * Use your Ready to Read Grant. * Ask your Friends of the Library or Library Foundation for funding. * Ask a local civic organization like Kiwanis, Lions, or Rotary for a donation. * Ask local businesses for donations and recognize their donations-e.g. create a bulletin board or display where you recognize all summer reading supporters, submit a newspaper article thanking donors, put donors' logos on summer reading fliers or other promotional materials. * Ask a local print shop to provide an in-kind donation-i.e. they would print the certificates at no cost to the library, and the library would acknowledge their contribution in some way. Thank you Becky Pearson from McMinnville Public Library, Sam Geary from McMinnville Public Library, and Itzel Sayago from Cornelius Public Library for designing the certificates! Please let me know if you have any questions.

A: In the past, printing and distributing hardcopies of the summer reading certificates was paid for by a donation. The donation funds are no longer available. The State Library surveyed public libraries to ask if they thought printing and distributing the certificates was a good use of State Library funds. The results of the survey were shared with the executive boards of OLA's Children's Services Division and Oregon Young Adults Network, and both organizations recommended that the State Library 1) discontinue printing and distributing hardcopies, 2) make a black-and-white certificate available to download for those who don't have a color printer, and 3) provide a few local funding suggestions. The State Library decided to follow these recommendations. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Adults Just Wanna Have Fun: Programs for Emerging Adults. Chicago, IL: ALA Editions. There are a wealth of resources out there geared towards serving the needs of toddlers, school age children, young adults, and senior citizens. But something's missing. Library users in their 20s and 30s constitute one of the most underserved populations for public libraries, and there's a scarcity of guidance on how to target them. Barbakoff's fun and practical programming book helps to fill that gap. A 2013 Library Journal Mover & Shaker who was also named one of Flavorwire's "10 of the Coolest Librarians Alive," she shows how to draw emerging adults to the library using a mixture of play and engagement and then keep them coming back for more. Packed with ideas that are real-world tested and approved, this guide * examines the unique needs and expectations of millennials, many of whom are already avid readers and have the potential to become a core part of the public library user base; * presents easily adaptable programs that are fun for a variety of groups, from "Bad Art Night" and "DIY Hot Cocoa Mix" to "Library Speed Dating" and "Homemade Spa Products"; * features a range of events that move the library outside and into the community, such as hosting a book club in a bar, combining books and bikes, partnering with a commercial kitchen for a cookbook group, and a book-to-action program that uses book discussions as springboards to hands-on service projects; * offers advice for garnering funding and support by showing how to connect programming to the library's fundamental values; and * provides tips for prep, setup, and teardown, plus pointers on marketing and outreach. By taking the initiative to offer programming that appeals to emerging adults, public libraries help to make them life-long library users. It's an investment that will reap benefits for years to come, and this book shows how to make it happen. Check out this title's Web Extra!

Then you might consider applying to join the Curation Corps to help select books the Open eBook Collection! Please read the following email from the Digital Public Library of America for details. ________________________________ From: Digital Public Library of America [mailto:info=dp.la at mail139.atl121.mcsv.net] On Behalf Of Digital Public Library of America Sent: Wednesday, March 09, 2016 7:36 AM Subject: Curation Corps 2016: Help Us Continue Growing Open eBooks Curation Corps 2016: Help Us Continue Growing Open eBooks Two weeks ago we were thrilled to join The New York Public Library, First Book, and Baker & Taylor in announcing the launch of Open eBooks, an app containing thousands of popular and award-winning titles that are free for children from low-income households. The goal of Open eBooks is to encourage a love of reading and serve as a gateway to children reading even more often, whether in school, at libraries, or through other eBook reading apps. You may be wondering: what was DPLA?s role in all of this? It was our national network of librarians and cultural heritage organizations who helped to coordinate books for inclusion in Open eBooks. In summer 2015, we issued a call for interested librarians and school media specialists to apply for the opportunity to be a part of the inaugural Curation Corps. We evaluated over 140 compelling applications from across the country and selected nine passionate individuals who represent a broad range of expertise and a commitment to serving low-income and diverse populations. The DPLA Curation Corps applied their knowledge and professional skills to shape a compelling collection that is diverse, exciting, and age-appropriate so that every child has a book to read and enjoy. ?I believe in literacy as the basic skill for success in school. I work in a special education school and spend every working day with barriers to literacy. My goals in both applying and wishing to continue with this initiative are to promote accessible and diverse books for children. Specifically, the books that make a child laugh, ask questions, and read out loud just for the fun of it!? writes Curation Corps member Dorothy M. Hughes. Continuing Curation Corps member Vandy Pancetti-Donelson serves because, ?this library is always open and I want to make sure our children have good books to choose. There is a book for every reader.? To learn more about the members of the Curation Corps, visit the Curation Corps homepage. Call for Curation Corps Class of 2016 After the successful Open eBooks launch, partners and publishers are excited to continue growing the collection with the help of the second class of the Curation Corps. Content selection will continue to prioritize diverse books, with an eye to multicultural and non-English language titles. We are also looking to create a collection of ebooks available to all readers, even without access codes. We are seeking motivated, engaged community members who have experience with building and organizing children and young adult book collections, who have time to continue growing the Open eBooks collection through the end of 2016. Curation Corps members will select top content, highlight kid favorites, and help categorize titles to make them more discoverable inside the app. If you are interested in helping us connect books to young readers, and you have expertise in this area, please consider being a member of our Ebook Collection Curation Corps. Applications are due Friday, April 1. We will announce the second class of Collection Curation Corps in April 2016. Apply to the DPLA Curation Corps Questions about the Curation Corps? Email us. Open eBooks is a partnership between The New York Public Library, DPLA, and First Book, with assistance from Baker & Taylor, and made possible by generous commitments of publishers with funding support provided in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation.

Beloved children's book author Beverly Cleary was born on April 12th, 1916, in McMinnville and raised in Portland. As a librarian, Cleary learned that elementary school children were looking for and struggling to find books about kids like themselves. In 1950, Cleary published her first book, Henry Huggins, which is about a boy, his dog, and his friends who live in the Hollywood neighborhood in Portland. Since then, Beverly Cleary has published over 40 children's books, most of which are still in print and relevant to kids today. She has won many literary awards, including the John Newbery Medal for Dear Mr. Henshaw and Newbery Honors for Ramona Quimby, Age 8 and Ramona and Her Father. Her most recent book, Ramona's World, was published in 1999. Beverly Cleary now lives in California so she can be near her family. Many elementary school libraries will be celebrating Beverly Cleary's 100th birthday by participating in "Drop Everything and Read" (D.E.A.R.). It is a national reading program many schools participate in every year during the month of April. The D.E.A.R. reading program started after Beverly Cleary first wrote about it in Ramona Quimby, Age 8. Most public libraries will be celebrating Beverly Cleary's 100th birthday the week of April 12th. Contact your local public library to find out what activities they have planned and when they are taking place. The Oregon Library Directory is available online at: http://libdir.osl.state.or.us/. OPB is celebrating with an Oregon Art Beat special "Discovering Beverly Cleary"-the first-ever documentary about the author. It includes a rare, new interview with Beverly Cleary herself! Watch the special on Thursday, April 7th on OPB TV or online at: www.opb.org/beverlycleary. ________________________________ 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...

Good Morning, By now, I?m sure you?ve seen lots of communication about celebrating Beverly Cleary?s 100th birthday. You may think that it?s for younger children, and many of the ideas on the 100 Years of Beverly Cleary webpage are geared toward elementary students. However, secondary students can participate, too. Here are just a few thoughts: ? Watch and discuss the 30-minute Oregon Public Broadcasting (OPB) documentary, ?Discovery Beverly Cleary,? in which Ms. Cleary is interviewed; it airs on April 7th but is already available online to watch. ? Read one of Cleary?s biographies and then discuss her impact ? A Girl from Yamhill and My Own Two Feet. ? Create neighborhood maps since the neighborhood features prominently in Cleary?s books. ? Book talk or read excerpts from one or some of Cleary?s books ? or a whole book over several visits ? to children in afterschool programs. ? Learn more about the author by exploring the resources in the Biography in Context portal page. The folks at Gale have generously made the page available to all Oregonians for the month of April. For those in or near Portland, you may be interested to know about Walking With Ramona: Exploring Beverly Cleary's Portland, a guidebook by Laura O. Foster to be published this fall.

The Oregon Library Association?s Children?s Services Division and Salem Public Library are hosting: 2016 Performer Showcase - Saturday, September 24, 2016 When: 9 a.m. (doors open at 8:30) to 4:30 or 5 p.m (depends on # of performers) Where: Salem Public Library?s Loucks Auditorium This Showcase allows audience members (librarians, teachers, and others from all over Oregon and Southwest Washington) to see a five-minute preview from between 70 and 90 magicians, musicians, storytellers, animal acts, creative dramatics, jugglers, clowns, and others who specialize in entertaining and educating children and families (that is - you!). Here is how you can be part of this amazing event that only takes place the last Saturday in September during even-numbered years. Please follow the links below to complete two online surveys: 1. 2016 Performer Showcase Invitation survey: http://goo.gl/forms/bHRrqCNbSD Your responses will be used to prepare the Performer Showcase schedule and Index of Performers that attendees receive. In September, I will send you your 5 minute time slot and provide additional information about the day. (Many of you already know just how awesome this is!) 2. 2016 Oregon Performer Directory survey: http://goo.gl/forms/sSVkGwsZUL This one is just a little longer, but still very quick and easy to complete. From information you provide, I will create the downloadable 2016 Oregon Performer Directory. It will be available on the Oregon Library Association Children's Services Division website beginning in October 2016. Showcase attendees will have access to the information the day of the Showcase. Thank you so much for helping to make this happen. If you are no longer performing in Oregon, please let me know and I will take you off our list. If you know other performers who may be interested, please help me get the word out and send them this information. I look forward to receiving your information and working with you in September!
