Hi all, The official OBOB list for 2017 has been released by Jennifer Thompson, OBOB Title Chair. Don't forget that you can use Ready to Read grant funds to purchase these books for your library. Another idea for purchasing extra titles is through your local service group. Our public library applied to our Early Bird Rotary group for a grant to give each of our participating schools a full set of books as well as a set of books from each level for our public library. Our service group was excited to support OBOB. The library took care of the ordering and dividing books up, and placed a bookplate with "In support of OBOB from the Newberg Early Bird Rotary and Newberg Public Library" in each book. It was also a great way for our public library to connect with our school libraries. This year the Newberg Public Library will again be writing questions for the elementary division, and we are willing to share our 10 sets of questions. In support of OBOB programming at other public libraries, these questions will be available only to public libraries by December 1, 2016. Please email me if you would like to receive them. They will be available on the Newberg Public Library website for everyone at the end of January 2017. Happy Reading! Korie Buerkle, Mary Lynn Thomas, Amanda Lamb Korie Buerkle Assistant Library Director | Children's Librarian Newberg Public Library Office: 503 554 7734 | Children's Desk: 503 537 0304 Please note my work week is Tues. - Sat. >From Jennifer Thompson, Oregon Battle of the Books Title Chair: The 2017 OBOB lists are complete. Happy Reading! Be sure to check the wiki later this year for the official lists and bookmarks with the finalized titles and authors names, just in case something changes, but at least for now you can read away.

Several of you remembered I sent out a series of three emails about dyslexia, including new Oregon laws, about a year ago and requested I send the emails out again. Below is the third email with links the first and second email for those who are interested. The materials from the Detangling Dyslexia presentation at the 2016 OLA Annual Conference are available on NW Central.-Thanks, Katie ________________________________ After sending this email about library services for dyslexic patrons, I was invited to attend a workshop about dyslexia presented by Barbara Steinberg at Multnomah County Library (thank you!). Many of you know Barbara because she has presented 'Becoming Thinkers' about how children learn to read at an OLA Annual Conferences, CSD Workshop, and two Focus Institutes. This is the third in a series of three emails about dyslexia. If you missed them, you can read the first one here (new Oregon laws related to dyslexia) and second one here (research about dyslexia). What can libraries do to better serve patrons with dyslexia? Keep in mind different accommodations are going to work/not work for different people. Provide accommodations: * Audio books * Ebooks with text to speech (Kindle and Audible's Whispersync for Voice is one example) * Ebooks with dyslexic font (OverDrive's OpenDyslexic is one example) * Colored overlays (Here is information about color overlays from National Reading Styles Institute, you can buy them from lots of vendors) * Know how to change the background and text colors on public access computers (Google Chrome's Olivia Reader is one example.) * Regular books published in dyslexic font (Amazon's Dyslexic-Friendly Editions is one example) * Specialty paper with raised lines or bright lines (Here is information about specialty papers from Understood.org, you can buy them from lots of vendors) * For literacy programs, remember it takes most people with dyslexia longer to read, longer to process what they read, many are poor spellers, and many have poor penmanship (Ideas: Use timed summer reading logs rather than number of books, don't ask someone you know or suspect has dyslexia open-ended questions about the reading during a program, forgive spelling errors, make it clear that listening to books is equivalent to eye-reading) * Most of the Gale databases available from the Statewide Database Licensing Program offer a "Listen" button when articles and other types of content are displayed. This feature plays an audio version of the text, but also offers features to highlight or increase the size of the text as it is being read. There is also a setting to adjust the reading speed, which might be handy for dyslexic readers. Just click on the gear/wheel icon within the button to set these features. * To get non-English audio content for Gale database articles, use the "Translate Article" feature in the Tools menu (usually on the right of the article display) to translate to your language of choice, then use the Listen button to listen to the translated text. In many Gale databases, the Tools menu also offers an option to download the audio file in MP3 format to play later. Refer patrons to organizations that specialize in providing treatment and/or resources for people with dyslexia: * Oregon Talking Book and Braille Library offers audio books for any Oregonian who cannot read or understand standard printed material as a result of a learning disability or brain injury. If your patron is interested, have them fill out the attached application and have it signed only by their medical doctor. Once signed just mail it to Talking Book (address is on the form) and we will begin their library service immediately. Service includes a free listening device that is checked-out to the patron indefinitely or they can download audio books to their own device. * Decoding Dyslexia Oregon (Barbara Steinberg recommends this be the first place you refer people with dyslexia-especially if they want more assistance than their school can provide, but they can't afford to pay a professional to provide expert teaching) * Understood.org's Parent Coaching and Learning at Home * IDA Provider Directory: Oregon to find International Dyslexia Association professional members who indicate they provide services to the dyslexic community (updated June 30, 2015) * Create a list of local professionals who provide services to people with dyslexia. You might start by contacting your local school, school district, or education service district. Suggest online resources: * International Dyslexia Association * LD Online * National Center for Learning Disabilities * The Yale Center for Dyslexia & Creativity * Understood: For Learning & Attention Issues Please share any other accommodations relevant to libraries, referral recommendations, and resources you learn about!

I shared this information with the OASL community and thought you might be interested. -- Jen Hi, Last week I asked for ideas about promoting and celebrating summer reading. Thanks to the three school librarians who responded to my information request, and thanks to Katie Anderson, Youth Services Consultant at the State Library, for providing additional info. Here?s what I learned. What do you do to promote the public library?s summer reading program before the school year ends? How do you coordinate with staff at your local public library for summer reading? What do you do to recognize summer reading participants or to celebrate with them after school starts in the fall? ? For the first time, I am signing all of my kids up for summer reading through Multnomah County. Because our students come from all over the tricounty area, I?ve never done this in the past. ? I also provide extensive lists of recommended titles to kids and their families. ? Offered a prize to students who brought back a completed game card (tracking sheet) from the public library program ? Distributed the game cards to all students at school the last week of school before the program began ? Held a summer reading scholastic buy one/get one book fair ? Had summer hours at the school library (funding permitting!) ? Met students at the library over the summer ? Included info in the parent newsletter and on the school website about the program and other awesome activities at the library ? My high school has its own summer reading program, which changes every year. I do send our summer reading list to local bookstores and public libraries. This year the Summer Reading Committee decided to select nonfiction titles. For this summer, students will be reading two books. One book is an "Everybody Reads" book, Tattoos on the Heart: The Power of Boundless Compassion by Greg Boyle. Then, students will select one of three titles depending on their grade level. ? To encourage active summer reading, I offer the Summer Reading Challenge. Students who meet the challenge (reading ten books or 2016 pages over the summer) earn a Summer Reading shirt. The shirt is selected from a t-shirt design contest that I have in late April/early May. I have a print shop company who prints and donates the shirts. Parents complete the verification form which students submit to the library to get their free shirt. I select shirts that are generic to reading (no year, no school name, no phrase "Summer Reading") as I want students to wear them year round. ? Invite public library staff to come to school in the spring to promote the summer reading program in classrooms or at an assembly. ? The idea that sparked my inquiry: Host a summer reading celebration at the beginning of the school year; encourage everyone to wear their summer reading shirts & take a group photo; ?admission ticket? is summer reading tracking form (or copy of it) or wearing t-shirt earned through program participation; promote the celebration at the end of the prior school year to encourage participation in the summer reading program. Other Suggestions ? Talk with your principal about the impact summer learning loss has on students when they return to school in the fall and the accumulating effect it has on student achievement year after year (here is a video about it: https://youtu.be/Ahhj3wxxkdM) and offer to help prevent summer learning loss by doing some of the activities suggested in this email at your school. ? Encourage teachers to talk with parents about summer learning loss and the importance of summer reading. Here are some one-page research briefs about summer learning loss (http://www.summerlearning.org/?page=research_brief) that you can distribute to teachers and parents. ? Help teachers develop summer reading lists or use ALA?s Association for Library Services to Children?s 2016 summer reading list for PreK-8th Grade (http://www.ala.org/alsc/2016-summer-reading-list) and OLA?s Oregon Young Adult Networks 2016 Book Rave list for middle and high school students (http://www.olaweb.org/assets/OYAN/book_rave16_color.pdf). ? Make sure all students have a public library card. ? If your school?s cafeteria will be open in the summer as a result of the federal government's Summer Food Service Program (http://www.fns.usda.gov/sfsp/summer-food-service-program-sfsp), take advantage by coordinating open school library hours, etc. ? Consider using digital tools to track reading in the summer (and longer). For example, ReaderZone is committed to ?eliminating the outdated paper reading calendar? (https://readerzone.com/). ? Become familiar with the resources and work of the National Summer Learning Association (http://www.summerlearning.org/). Summer Reading Theme & Certificates The Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP) (http://www.cslpreads.org/about/) establishes an annual summer reading theme, and this year?s is fitness, wellness, and sports. The children?s slogan is ?On Your Mark, Get Set, Read,? and the teen slogan is ?Get in the Game: Read.? The State Library provides downloadable summer reading certificates tied to the CSLP theme. ?Youth from birth to high school graduation are eligible to receive [one] when they complete a local library's summer reading program or listen to/read ten books over the summer.? If you know of students who meet either requirement this summer but do not receive a certificate, you can give them one (http://www.oregon.gov/osl/LD/Pages/youthsvcs/summerreading/summerreadingcertificates.aspx). If staff at your local public library staff have not contacted you about encouraging your students to participate in their summer reading program, please reach out to them.

Thanks, Jen From: oasl-all at ola.memberclicks.net [mailto:oasl-all at ola.memberclicks.net] Sent: Tuesday, May 10, 2016 10:50 AM To: Jennifer Maurer Subject: [oasl-all] Reader Zone: Digital Tool to Track Children's Reading Progress Recently I learned about Reader Zone, and I thought I?d share about it since it could be a helpful tool for classroom teachers, librarians, parents, and others to track students? or children?s reading progress. It can be used to track everything from year-long reading goals in a classroom to progress during a read-a-thon. The FAQ even suggests that the system can be used to track other things like musical instrument practice. One account can have unlimited reading programs, reading groups, and participants. The online tool and app are free. This is from the How It Works page: Reader Zone has been built so that reading groups of any size can reliably measure reading progress. Create 1. Fill out a simple online form to create your account and reading program(s). 2. Set up reading groups within your reading program(s). Set reading goals for each group. For example, if you have an entire elementary school, you can create one reading program for the entire school and separate reading groups for each grade level, classroom, etc. each with its own separate reading goal. 3. Select a unique reading code for your program. Reach Out 4. Email that code to your reading community asking them to download the app from either the Apple App Store or the Google Play Store and register their readers. 5. Your participants begin logging their reading. Manage 6. You can see the reading progress of every participant in your reading programs on your administrative dashboard. 7. The reading program, and its participants, can be edited anytime. 8. Download and use the reading data as you see fit.

This year's CSLP meeting was in Salt Lake City, Utah with sunshine, blue skies, and highs of around 75 degrees . . . outside. While we were inside most of the time, the views, breaks, and evenings were lovely. But we were there making key decisions, having important discussions, and relaying your suggestions, concerns, and thoughts to the collective. Next year's location and dates are still up in the air. With this first year under an executive director, processes were stream-lined, the timeline of the meeting was shortened to 2 ? days, and still all members from across the country as well as the U.S. territories who wanted to share had their opportunities. 2018 slogan also happens to work for all the age-groups: LIBRARIES ROCK. There were lots of discussions about where this theme/slogan could go and many suggestions for the artwork including a dinosaur xylophone! 2019 theme: SPACE by a wide margin of win! One of Oregon's suggested artists made THE TOP of the final list, FRANK MORRISON. There were 1,000 suggestions, narrowed incrementally to the top 10 we selected at the meeting: (listed in ranked order) 1. Frank Morrison 2. LeUyen Pham 3. Yuyi Morales 4. Brian Collier 5. Christian Robins 6. Kadir Nelson 7. Brian Pinkney 8. Peter Brown 9. Sandra Boynton 10. Mark Buehner This top ten list of artists will be contacted to determine who is available and willing to create the children's/early literacy art. Both the adult and teen artists are chosen in-house from Upstart allowing CSLP suggestions to be implemented right away! Some highlights of the many discussions: * Diversity and inclusiveness including the request that, if your library is translating the slogans or other materials into different languages, please share with all of CSLP! Let one of use know, and we'll see that your translations make it as an options for all the member libraries. * Manual format options that reduce paper use and costs but provide what everyone needs in some way or another * Early literacy summer reading manual in Spanish for 2017! * Funding of CSLP. Did you know that the CSLP summer reading miscellanea you purchase from Upstart is a large financial support for this organization? * By-laws change that allows committee chairs to vote along with state reps. So, as members of CSLP, anyone of you could give Oregon an extra vote by chairing a committee! You don't have to be the OYAN or CSD reps, either. Each CSLP survey sent out gives us the information we take to this meeting to represent you. Let us know what you think so that we can share Oregon's opinions. CSLP works hard both at this annual meeting as well as throughout the year. Some resources available to you via CSLP include: * CSLP White Paper about the impact of summer reading * PSAs are downloadable in video or audio forms. Follow the instructions here. We did mention the timeline of these which was taken for consideration. * The Teen Video Challenge winners are up and ready for use. You may use ANY of them. Oregon's winner was from Salem Public Library. Check them, and all the participating winners, out: http://www.cslpreads.org/programs/teen-program/teen-video-challenge/ This program was on the chopping block, but a volunteer from one of the member libraries has offered to continue it for next year! We were encouraged to let folks know that, if you are interested in participating in CSLP, you don't have to be state rep who attends this big meeting to do so. There are many committee options available who welcome your participation. Manual committees (one for each age group), Budget committee, Membership committees, etc. Let me know if you're interested, and I'll point you in the right direction to get connected. I'm happy to answer any of your questions.

Staff and volunteers from Willamette Writers finished their first year coordinating the Letters About Literature program in Oregon. Kudos on their success and thanks again for giving LAL a new home. Nationally, this annual reading and writing program is sponsored by the Center for the Book in the Library of Congress with support from the Dollar General Literacy Foundation. Thanks to the Oregon Reading Association and three divisions of the Oregon Library Association ? Children?s Services Division, Oregon Young Adult Network, and Oregon Association of School Libraries; all are local cosponsors and helped fund prizes. Also, thanks to the nine Oregon judges ? a school librarian, public librarian, and author for each of the three levels ? who devoted their time to reading entries. For those interested in promoting Letters About Literature next school year, check the Willamette Writers website in late September for entry forms and guidelines. Entries are usually due in December.
