URL: From katie.anderson at state.or.us Mon May 7 14:52:13 2012 From: katie.anderson at state.or.us (Katie Anderson) Date: Mon, 7 May 2012 21:52:13 +0000 Subject: [R2R-OR] 2012 summer reading statistics reminder Message-ID: <640435851FD7CB4AB3C4BE0D1963BA241C3BC7DE@OSLEXCHANGE.osl.state.or.us.local> Many of you requested that I send out a reminder about what statistics you will be asked to report on the 2012 summer reading statistics and ordering survey so you can be sure you're collecting the right data this summer. The 2012 summer reading statistics and ordering survey will be conducted during September 2012 and compiled into the 3rd Annual Summer Reading Brief. The link to the survey will be emailed out in September on this listserv to ensure that library directors are kept informed and that only one person fills out the survey per library. Below are the summer reading statistics you will be asked to report this Fall. Keep in mind that Oregon libraries are at liberty to implement the statewide 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 something you don't track. Please let me know if you have any questions. Do children and teens have to sign-up (or register) to participate in your summer reading program? If yes, then: * How many children and teens total signed up? * If you track children and teens separately, how many CHILDREN signed-up? * If you track children and teens separately, how many TEENS signed-up? Do children and teens participating in your summer reading program fill out a reading record (reading log, game board, etc.) to track how much they read/listen to books over the summer? If yes, then: * How many children and teens turned in completed reading records (i.e. how many finishers did you have)? * If children and teens reported the amount of time they spent reading on their reading records, how many HOURS did they read? (For example: If kids had to read 10 hours to complete a reading record and your library received 78 completed reading records, then you would enter '780' as your answer to this question. You can report to your stakeholders that kids at your library read 780 hours over the summer.) * If children and teens reported the number of pages they read on their reading records, how many PAGES did they read? (For example: If kids had to read 100 pages to complete a reading record and your library received 52 completed reading records, then you would enter '5,200' as your answer to this question. You can report to your stakeholders that kids at your library read 5,200 pages over the summer.) * If children and teens reported the number of books they read on their reading records, how many BOOKS did they read? (For example: If kids had to read 5 books to complete a reading record and your library received 100 completed reading records, then you would enter '500' as your answer to this question. You can report to your stakeholders that kids at your library read 500 books over the summer.) * If children and teens didn't report amount of time spent reading, number of pages read, or number of books read on their reading records; how did they track their reading over the summer? How many CHILDREN'S summer reading programs/activities/events did you offer? How many people attended summer reading programs/activities/events targeting CHILDREN? How many TEEN summer reading programs/activities/events did you offer? How many people attended summer reading programs/activities/events targeting TEENS? Did your library have an adult summer reading program? If yes, then: * How many adults participated? * How did you track participation? Only include programs if they are an integral part of your summer reading program. For example, story times: Do track story times at which the books and activities are tied to the summer reading theme and/or kids can count story time on their reading records. This type of story time is integral to your summer reading program! Do NOT track story times at which the books and activities are NOT tied to the summer reading theme and kid cannot count story time on their reading records. This story time is not part of your summer reading program; it is just a continuation of the story time program your library provides year-round. This type of program is still very important and you will have an opportunity to report it when your library director submits your Public Library Statistics.
