I will be providing additional information as I receive it. MaryKay MaryKay Dahlgreen Oregon State Librarian 503-378-4367 marykay.dahlgreen at state.or.us http://oregon.gov/osl [02_inch_2_color_cmyk] From: MaryKay Dahlgreen Sent: Thursday, April 02, 2015 3:15 PM To: AllStateLibrary Subject: Legislation concerning the State Library Dear Colleagues: I has come to my attention that legislation will be introduced at the Joint Ways and Means Committee session tomorrow morning. There are several substantial changes included that I would like to make you aware of: The Board of Trustees as it currently exists would be replaced with a Board appointed by the Governor, after consultation with OLA, which would include the following members: state agency staff, public representatives, public library representatives, academic library representative, Deputy Supt. Of Public Instruction or designee, and administrator of the Commission for the Blind, or designee. The current members would be phased out over time. The State Library would be a Governor appointee, requiring Senate confirmation. Currently the State Librarian is appointed and serves at the pleasure of the Trustees. The current state librarian may serve until July 1, 2017 Establish a State Reference Coordinating Council to coordinate interagency delivery of library, information, and reference services among state agencies. The Council shall be the state librarian, state archivist, and state of Oregon law librarian. The State Library, in coordination with DAS, will approve the selection, negotiation, purchase and maintenance of databases and subscriptions for all state agencies. The state library will certify other state agency libraries each biennium. There are other changes and the full legislative concept is available at the Oregon Legislative Information webpage https://olis.leg.state.or.us/liz/2015R1/Downloads/CommitteeMeetingDocument/59912 . Several of these changes have been discussed in earlier conversations about library services and I believe, will improve our ability to provide excellent service that is effective and efficient. While there are changes to the Board there will continue to be good representation from our constitutients and will provide representation from other customer groups and partners. The change to the appointment of the State Librarian will align that position with the appointment process of other agency heads. There are a number of steps this must go through to become law and tomorrow is just the first step. I have scheduled an all staff meeting for tomorrow morning at 11:00 a.m. This is an optional meeting but if you do attend please have reviewed the legislative concept.

Attached is a copy of statistics and ordering survey so you know what all the questions are in advance. The link to the actual survey will be emailed out on this listserv in September to ensure that only one person per library fills out the survey. The result of the 2015 summer reading statistics and ordering survey will be compiled into the 6th Annual Summer Reading Brief. The survey has changed a lot so please be sure to look at the attachment! In response to your suggestions, I made several changes to the summer reading statistics survey this year. Primarily, all age ranges will be treated equal! You'll be asked to report the same statistics for young children, elementary school-age children, teens, and adults. Please keep in mind that Oregon libraries are at liberty to implement the summer reading program in whatever way works best for their communities therefore libraries may not track all of these statistics-that's okay, you don't have to report on anything you don't do. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks, Katie PS: This email will be sent out on the kids-lib and OYAN listservs so youth services librarians know what statistics you'll be asking them to collect.
