[R2R-OR] Summer Reading: Report 2013 statistics & order free materials for 2014 by 9/30/2013

[Katie Anderson]

NOTE: This email has nothing to do with the Ready to Read Grant. Please report on all summer reading activities regardless of how they are funded. This listserv is just the best way for me to provide you with the link to the summer reading survey.

Dear Library Directors and Key Contacts,

The annual summer reading statistics and ordering survey is now available online at: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/6TS52XR.  The deadline for completing this survey is Monday, September 30th. Please submit only one survey per library/library system.

Before you take this survey, make sure you have in front of you the number of:


  *   Children, teens, and adults who signed up for the reading portion of your SRP.
  *   Children, teens, and adults who completed for the reading portion of your SRP.
  *   Hours, pages, or number of books read.
  *   Children's, teen, and adult summer reading programs, activities, and/or events.
  *   Number of people who attended those programs.
  *   Oregon Summer Reading Certificates your library (and its branches) needs for 2014
  *   Summer reading sweepstakes materials your library (and its branches) needs for 2014
  *   CSLP summer reading manuals your library (and its branches) need for 2015-You already ordered your 2014 summer reading manual.  You can pick it up at the CSD Fall meeting on October 19, 2013 at Tigard Public Library<http://www.olaweb.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=129>.  If you do not pick it up there, the CSD Summer Reading Chair will ship it to your library in November or December 2013.

If you have these numbers in front of you prior to starting the survey, it should take you about 20 minutes to complete this survey.

Please keep in mind all libraries are at liberty to run their summer reading program in whatever way works best for their community.  Therefore, your library may not collect all these numbers-that's okay, just skip the questions that don't apply.

I will also send an announcement on the kids-lib and OYAN email lists to inform them that link to the summer reading statistics and ordering survey was emailed to you.

This survey does not include an opportunity to provide feedback, it is strictly for reporting and ordering.  You will have an opportunity to provide feedback on all things summer reading via the SRP feedback survey conducted and sent by Abbie Anderson, the Oregon Young Adult Network's (OYAN) CSLP Liaison. The SRP feedback survey will go out to all Oregon library staff via the kids-lib, OYAN, and libs-or email discussion lists. This will allow you and your colleagues to share your professional opinions individually so be on the lookout for that survey from Abbie.

Please let me know if you have any questions or need help with the survey.

Thank you,
Katie Anderson
