Contact Katie Anderson 503-378-2528 The Focus on Children and Young Adults Institute seeks to provide a foundation of professional knowledge about youth services necessary for the operation of small public libraries in Oregon. Participants will attend several training sessions over the course of three and a half days. The sessions concentrate on the principles of public library services to children and teens, and how to put those principles into practice. Session topics may change from year to year based on research, library practices, and trends which change and improve continually. Feedback from the previous Focus Institute participants is also considered when planning session topics. Training sessions are presented by highly skilled, experienced Youth Services Librarians in Oregon. Presenters are typically active members of the Oregon Library Association's Children's Services Division (CSD) and Oregon Young Adult Network (OYAN). 2012 Focus on Children and Young Adults Institute Sessions and Presenters Sunday 9/16: * Check-in 4:00-5:00pm * Orientation * Meet the new State Librarian, MaryKay Dahlgreen! * Networking Topic: getting to know each other and our libraries Monday 9/17: * Language, Literacy and Early Brain Development (Joann Contini) * Readers' Advisory for Parents & Young Children (Dana Campbell) * Storytime Best Practices (Rick Samuelson) * Outreach (Rick Samuelson) * Networking Topic: trouble shooting issues with services, programs, collections and more Tuesday 9/18: * Becoming Thinkers (Barbara Steinberg) * Applying Becoming Thinkers in Your Library (Deeda Chamberlain, Jane Corry, and Krist Obrist) * After-school Activities for the Elementary Set (Esther Moberg, Korie Jones Buerkle, and Nancy Peate) * Everyone Serves Teens (Susan Smallsreed and Deborah Gitlitz) * Networking Topic: sharing booklists, programming ideas, and other fun stuff Wednesday 9/19: * Selling it in the Stacks to Teens (Ruth Allen and Traci Glass) * Teen Programming (K'Lyn Hann) * Last session ends at noon Katie Anderson, Library 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 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
