The 14th Annual Margaret Edwards Day: *Books for the Beast *Conference occurs October 28, 2017. The remarks of current YA authors and illustrators are part of the day, along with book signings and discussion groups of the reading list the committee compiles of top YA reads since the last conference. Attendees (teachers, librarians, teens (who are free of charge) read these YA titles prior to the conference in order to participate in book discussions. I am attaching the reading list and a flyer that provides a bit of history of this event. Ellen Oh and Jim Ottaviani will be featured speakers this year. So noot one YA recommendation -- but several to add to your list! If you live in the mid-Atlantic area and are interested in attending, please let me know -- online registration should be available soon. Adult? Hmmmm....always lagging here. I did just finish *Hillbilly Elegy* (J.D. Vance) Not really light, summer reading, but definitely illuminating and thought-provoking, regardless of your personal political beliefs. Much to ponder here as we consider the state of our country today. May provide some interesting family reunion discussions this summer!

Answers have varied, and our law librarian gave a thorough response based on ALA policies, among other things. Apparently the problem in this director's community is that not all of the patrons or potential patrons under age 18 have photo IDs (their school district doesn't have them), and the library's current policy requires the parents to come in and sign for their children under the age of 18. Our law librarian has checked with me, to inquire about varying policies in libraries regarding this, and if any of you have any thoughts on this matter, I'd appreciate hearing from you. I'll be happy to forward our law librarian's response to anyone who would like to read it or can post to the list if you would like to read it. (She's excellent and thorough, and is looking for some actual practices in libraries in addition to the ALA's and legal policies).

The 14th Annual Margaret Edwards Day: Books for the Beast Conference occurs October 28, 2017. The remarks of current YA authors and illustrators are part of the day, along with book signings and discussion groups of the reading list the committee compiles of top YA reads since the last conference. Attendees (teachers, librarians, teens (who are free of charge) read these YA titles prior to the conference in order to participate in book discussions. I am attaching the reading list and a flyer that provides a bit of history of this event. Ellen Oh and Jim Ottaviani will be featured speakers this year. So noot one YA recommendation -- but several to add to your list! If you live in the mid-Atlantic area and are interested in attending, please let me know -- online registration should be available soon. Adult? Hmmmm....always lagging here. I did just finish Hillbilly Elegy (J.D. Vance) Not really light, summer reading, but definitely illuminating and thought-provoking, regardless of your personal political beliefs. Much to ponder here as we consider the state of our country today. May provide some interesting family reunion discussions this summer!

If a library offers the free summer lunch program, then should that in and of itself be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? If a library offers the free summer lunch program and passive programming such as playing an audio book or making word searches available to kids while they eat, then should it be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? We have several libraries offering the free summer lunch program 5 days a week and doing a storytime and/or summer reading activity in conjunction with lunch once or twice a week. Obviously, those are programs to be tracked for public libraries statistics. However, they are wondering if they should count the other 3 or 4 lunches per week as a program or not.

When I conduct my annual summer library program evaluation, I ask if libraries participate in this program - either as a host site OR providing enrichment activities - and assumed those numbers were reported in total program attendance, since it happened on library program. However, I guess I will need to consult with my state data coordinator for clarification. According to the program definition as outlined by IMLS, I could see where an argument AGAINST counting the statistic could be made, depending on program sponsorship. Per the IMLS definition: A children's program is any planned event for which the primary audience is children and which introduces the group of children attending to any of the broad range of library services or activities for children or which directly provides information to participants. Children's programs may cover use of the library, library services, or library tours. Children's programs may also provide cultural, recreational, or educational information, often designed to meet a specific social need. Examples of these types of programs include story hours and summer reading events. Count all children's programs, whether held on- or off-site, that are sponsored or co-sponsored by the library. Do not include children's programs sponsored by other groups that use library facilities. If children's programs are offered as a series, count each program in the series. For example, a story hour offered once a week, 48 weeks a year, should be counted as 48 programs. Exclude library activities for children delivered on a one-to-one basis, rather than to a group, such as one-to-one literacy tutoring, services to homebound, homework assistance, and mentoring activities. This figure is a subset of the Total Number of Library Programs (data element #600) https://www.imls.gov/sites/default/files/legacy/assets/1/AssetManager/PLS_Defs_FY2014.pdf However, what constitutes sponsorship - and how does that affect partnerships and collaborations, such as summer feeding? The library may not be providing the food, but the space itself is a critical resource, as well as the marketing and promotions the library does around the program? It would be great to hear other thoughts on the topic.

Indiana has never done a formal post-SRP survey or evaluation. I know that many states do, and I'm interested in starting one here. (Krista, kudos to Kentucky's excellent website explaining yours-you seem to cover everything. Thanks for sharing it this morning!) In order to justify starting such a survey, since it would put some additional burden on our libraries, I'd like input from other states. So, I created a quick survey for anyone willing to tell me how and why your state does this type of survey: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/T975ZCX (A survey about a survey...is this meta, or what?)

We also don't count tutors that are not provided by the library and meet with their students at the library or people who use library meeting rooms to hold a meeting, these are not programs. However, if the library were to offer a story-time during lunch or a magic show or a book discussion etc... you would count that as a library program. The pleasure of using library property does not a library program make.. Passive programming is NOT included in the programs count! The current thinking is that putting out a chess board, having a puzzle table or making coloring sheets available is not providing a program. There has been talk about figuring out a way to effectively count passive programming at the national level but we are not there yet." Getting the message across on what to and what not to count to our public libraries can prove to be a challenge though.

If a library offers the free summer lunch program, then should that in and of itself be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? If a library offers the free summer lunch program and passive programming such as playing an audio book or making word searches available to kids while they eat, then should it be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? We have several libraries offering the free summer lunch program 5 days a week and doing a storytime and/or summer reading activity in conjunction with lunch once or twice a week. Obviously, those are programs to be tracked for public libraries statistics. However, they are wondering if they should count the other 3 or 4 lunches per week as a program or not.

Regarding Summer Food Service Program, our SDC has added a question about SFSP participation to our Public Library Survey (along with a question about SRP and one about homework help, which are also not IMLS-required questions). These were at my request and are used to give me data and feedback for my planning. The results of these questions are included in our summary spreadsheet which is made available to libraries (https://library.ohio.gov/services-for-libraries/ohio-public-library-statistics/). The SFSP question is new in 2016 and not included on any report accessible from that link. I also ask the libraries to report on their SFSP participation in the separate Ohio Summer Library Program survey (Beth, I will complete your survey about this tomorrow!). As the State Library of Ohio has been putting much energy into promoting and supporting public library participation in SFSP over the past ~3 years, I find it tremendously helpful to know what libraries are participating, participation trends (going up quickly in Ohio!), and any narrative feedback the libraries choose to include on their SRP evaluation surveys. This has helped us target outreach to libraries, connect new SFSP participant libraries with experienced libraries, and talk with authority about library participation to other stakeholders, from the State Library board, to the state's SFSP administering agency, to anti-hunger organizations, to the media, to the USDA. I expect library participation in feeding programs to continue to grow in volume and importance. Even if the IMLS doesn't want to have those numbers included in the PL stats reported to them, it seems valuable for us to capture that data. BTW, if you don't capture that data, then later on find you want it, you can likely construct if from data collected by your state SFSP administering agency. As always, props to California and Virginia for their mentorship and guidance - I feel happily obliged to make this shout-out whenever I start talking like an SFSP expert. :) Best, Janet [cid:image001.jpg at 01D2E9E4.1DE83C20] Janet Ingraham Dwyer Library Consultant jdwyer at library.ohio.gov http://library.ohio.gov/youth-services [cid:image002.png at 01CE3601.569A19D0] [Description: Twitter logo - links to the State Library of Ohio's Twitter page] [Description: Blog logo - Links to the State Library of Ohio's blog] [cid:image005.png at 01CE3601.569A19D0] Share Your Story by telling us how a State Library service or resource helped you or your library.

Exclude library activities for children delivered on a one-to-one basis, rather than to a group, such as one-to-one literacy tutoring, services to homebound, homework assistance, and mentoring activities.

If a library offers the free summer lunch program, then should that in and of itself be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? If a library offers the free summer lunch program and passive programming such as playing an audio book or making word searches available to kids while they eat, then should it be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? We have several libraries offering the free summer lunch program 5 days a week and doing a storytime and/or summer reading activity in conjunction with lunch once or twice a week. Obviously, those are programs to be tracked for public libraries statistics. However, they are wondering if they should count the other 3 or 4 lunches per week as a program or not.

In this specific case and a many Oregon libraries, the onsite free Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is more of a partnership in which the sponsor prepares and delivers lunches to the library and library staff or library volunteers set-up the meal area, distribute lunches, track SFSP statistics, report SFSP statistics to their sponsor, and clean up. In these cases, is SFSP a library service? Are these SFSPs planned event which introduces the group of children attending to a library service? At least two Oregon libraries are the SFSP sponsor and the site, library staff go grocery shopping and prepare the meals and do absolutely everything. In these cases, is SFSP a library service? Are these SFSPs planned event which introduces the group of children attending to a library service? If a library is just providing facilities for SFSP like they would to anyone else reserving space in the library, then that is clearly not a library program. It's another organization's program, they just happen to be using library space. Good to know not to count passive programs! I know it's been a hot topic with the data coordinators.

The IMLS definition includes this line: "Count all children's programs, whether held on- or off-site, that are sponsored or co-sponsored by the library." As far as I can gather, ALL the Ohio libraries that are SFSP sites are actively involved in planning, promotion/publicity, set-up, meal provision, program/activity provision, clean-up, and/or supervision. I'd say that certainly makes them "co-sponsors" at the least. There must be someone at IMLS who can answer this conclusively. I could ask our State Data Coordinator to reach out if there is interest.

If you want all of the details, you can find our crib sheet online: https://dpi.wi.gov/sites/default/files/imce/pld/pdf/annrpt_YS_data.pdf Regarding the SFSP, it really matters how the meals/snacks are being offered in relation to library services. In our state, it looks a bit different at every library, so there is not a blanket answer. If one of my libraries called me about this, here are some questions I would ask: * Was the library officially a "co-sponsor" of the program, on or off site? * Was the meal/snack offered to an assembled group or to individuals coming and going on their own schedule? * Was the meal/snack offered as part of or in conjunction with a traditional group program OR as an independent passive program ("drop-in activity" in Wisconsin)? o If it was part of a traditional group program, did the library introduces the group attending to any of the broad range of library services or activities or which directly provides information to participants? Programs may cover use of the library, library services, or library tours. Programs may also provide cultural, recreational, or educational information, often designed to meet a specific social need. o If it was part of an independent passive program, then it does not count under the federal definition of a program. * Remember, the annual report does not count every single thing that libraries offer (which is a good thing!). Just because something may not "count" on the annual report does not mean that it doesn't matter. If there is a reason you are offering a specific service, find a way to make sure that your library board understands why. I don't know if this adds anything to the conversation, but that's the scoop from my corner of the library universe. I'm glad to chat more, if there is interest/need.

In this specific case and a many Oregon libraries, the onsite free Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is more of a partnership in which the sponsor prepares and delivers lunches to the library and library staff or library volunteers set-up the meal area, distribute lunches, track SFSP statistics, report SFSP statistics to their sponsor, and clean up. In these cases, is SFSP a library service? Are these SFSPs planned event which introduces the group of children attending to a library service? At least two Oregon libraries are the SFSP sponsor and the site, library staff go grocery shopping and prepare the meals and do absolutely everything. In these cases, is SFSP a library service? Are these SFSPs planned event which introduces the group of children attending to a library service? If a library is just providing facilities for SFSP like they would to anyone else reserving space in the library, then that is clearly not a library program. It's another organization's program, they just happen to be using library space. Good to know not to count passive programs! I know it's been a hot topic with the data coordinators.

Children's programs may cover use of the library, library services, or library tours.

Do not include children's programs sponsored by other groups that use library facilities. If children's programs are offered as a series, count each program in the series. For example, a story hour offered once a week, 48 weeks a year, should be counted as 48 programs. Exclude library activities for children delivered on a one-to-one basis, rather than to a group, such as one-to-one literacy tutoring, services to homebound, homework assistance, and mentoring activities. This figure is a subset of the Total Number of Library Programs (data element #600) https://www.imls.gov/sites/default/files/legacy/assets/1/AssetManager/PLS_Defs_FY2014.pdf However, what constitutes sponsorship - and how does that affect partnerships and collaborations, such as summer feeding? The library may not be providing the food, but the space itself is a critical resource, as well as the marketing and promotions the library does around the program? It would be great to hear other thoughts on the topic.

If a library offers the free summer lunch program, then should that in and of itself be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? If a library offers the free summer lunch program and passive programming such as playing an audio book or making word searches available to kids while they eat, then should it be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? We have several libraries offering the free summer lunch program 5 days a week and doing a storytime and/or summer reading activity in conjunction with lunch once or twice a week. Obviously, those are programs to be tracked for public libraries statistics. However, they are wondering if they should count the other 3 or 4 lunches per week as a program or not. Does that make sense?

I see two main lines of thinking: 1. If library staff and/or volunteers are working as partners or co-sponsors to plan, promote, and implement the free Summer Food Services Program then it meets the following definition and should be counted as program for the Public Library Statistics. A children's program is any planned event for which the primary audience is children and which introduces the group of children attending to any of the broad range of library services or activities for children or which directly provides information to participants. Children's programs may cover use of the library, library services, or library tours. Children's programs may also provide cultural, recreational, or educational information, often designed to meet a specific social need. Examples of these types of programs include story hours and summer reading events. Count all children's programs, whether held on- or off-site, that are sponsored or co-sponsored by the library. Do not include children's programs sponsored by other groups that use library facilities. If children's programs are offered as a series, count each program in the series. For example, a story hour offered once a week, 48 weeks a year, should be counted as 48 programs. Exclude library activities for children delivered on a one-to-one basis, rather than to a group, such as one-to-one literacy tutoring, services to homebound, homework assistance, and mentoring activities. This figure is a subset of the Total Number of Library Programs (data element #600) 2. If library staff or volunteers are not engaging a group of children in cultural, recreational, or education activities as a group at a specific time (E.g. specifically 12:00 as opposed to a window of time like 12:00-12:30) then it is passive and should not be counted as a program for the Public Library Statistics even if the library partners or co-sponsors to plan, promote, and implement the free Summer Food Services Program. It seems like we all in agreement that it should be counted if library staff or library volunteers are leading a group of children in doing cultural, recreational, or education activities together like storytimes or crafts in conjunction with the meal and it should not be counted if SFSP is just using library space and the library isn't involved in promoting, planning, or implementing it. Does this reflect our conversation well enough? If so, I'll share this with my supervisor so we can make an informed decision.

If a library offers the free summer lunch program, then should that in and of itself be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? If a library offers the free summer lunch program and passive programming such as playing an audio book or making word searches available to kids while they eat, then should it be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? We have several libraries offering the free summer lunch program 5 days a week and doing a storytime and/or summer reading activity in conjunction with lunch once or twice a week. Obviously, those are programs to be tracked for public libraries statistics. However, they are wondering if they should count the other 3 or 4 lunches per week as a program or not.

I see two main lines of thinking: 1. If library staff and/or volunteers are working as partners or co-sponsors to plan, promote, and implement the free Summer Food Services Program then it meets the following definition and should be counted as program for the Public Library Statistics. A children's program is any planned event for which the primary audience is children and which introduces the group of children attending to any of the broad range of library services or activities for children or which directly provides information to participants. Children's programs may cover use of the library, library services, or library tours. Children's programs may also provide cultural, recreational, or educational information, often designed to meet a specific social need. Examples of these types of programs include story hours and summer reading events. Count all children's programs, whether held on- or off-site, that are sponsored or co-sponsored by the library.

This figure is a subset of the Total Number of Library Programs (data element #600) 2. If library staff or volunteers are not engaging a group of children in cultural, recreational, or education activities as a group at a specific time (E.g. specifically 12:00 as opposed to a window of time like 12:00-12:30) then it is passive and should not be counted as a program for the Public Library Statistics even if the library partners or co-sponsors to plan, promote, and implement the free Summer Food Services Program. It seems like we all in agreement that it should be counted if library staff or library volunteers are leading a group of children in doing cultural, recreational, or education activities together like storytimes or crafts in conjunction with the meal and it should not be counted if SFSP is just using library space and the library isn't involved in promoting, planning, or implementing it. Does this reflect our conversation well enough? If so, I'll share this with my supervisor so we can make an informed decision.

Our team has been halved, and we are unsure if we will fill the vacancies. So, wearing lots of hats and spinning a few extra plates! I know many of you have gone through similar rough patches in the past. Before he left, I worked very closely with our State Data Coordinator about traditional programs, passive programs, and summer reading programs. If you want all of the details, you can find our crib sheet online: https://dpi.wi.gov/sites/default/files/imce/pld/pdf/annrpt_YS_data.pdf Regarding the SFSP, it really matters how the meals/snacks are being offered in relation to library services. In our state, it looks a bit different at every library, so there is not a blanket answer. If one of my libraries called me about this, here are some questions I would ask: * Was the library officially a "co-sponsor" of the program, on or off site? * Was the meal/snack offered to an assembled group or to individuals coming and going on their own schedule? * Was the meal/snack offered as part of or in conjunction with a traditional group program OR as an independent passive program ("drop-in activity" in Wisconsin)? o If it was part of a traditional group program, did the library introduces the group attending to any of the broad range of library services or activities or which directly provides information to participants? Programs may cover use of the library, library services, or library tours. Programs may also provide cultural, recreational, or educational information, often designed to meet a specific social need. o If it was part of an independent passive program, then it does not count under the federal definition of a program. * Remember, the annual report does not count every single thing that libraries offer (which is a good thing!). Just because something may not "count" on the annual report does not mean that it doesn't matter. If there is a reason you are offering a specific service, find a way to make sure that your library board understands why. I don't know if this adds anything to the conversation, but that's the scoop from my corner of the library universe. I'm glad to chat more, if there is interest/need. Hope to see some of you at ALA in Chicago!

The IMLS definition includes this line: "Count all children's programs, whether held on- or off-site, that are sponsored or co-sponsored by the library." As far as I can gather, ALL the Ohio libraries that are SFSP sites are actively involved in planning, promotion/publicity, set-up, meal provision, program/activity provision, clean-up, and/or supervision. I'd say that certainly makes them "co-sponsors" at the least. There must be someone at IMLS who can answer this conclusively. I could ask our State Data Coordinator to reach out if there is interest.

In this specific case and a many Oregon libraries, the onsite free Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is more of a partnership in which the sponsor prepares and delivers lunches to the library and library staff or library volunteers set-up the meal area, distribute lunches, track SFSP statistics, report SFSP statistics to their sponsor, and clean up. In these cases, is SFSP a library service? Are these SFSPs planned event which introduces the group of children attending to a library service? At least two Oregon libraries are the SFSP sponsor and the site, library staff go grocery shopping and prepare the meals and do absolutely everything. In these cases, is SFSP a library service? Are these SFSPs planned event which introduces the group of children attending to a library service? If a library is just providing facilities for SFSP like they would to anyone else reserving space in the library, then that is clearly not a library program. It's another organization's program, they just happen to be using library space. Good to know not to count passive programs! I know it's been a hot topic with the data coordinators. We are without a data coordinator right now so just wanted to check where they landed on it... for this year at least!

We also don't count tutors that are not provided by the library and meet with their students at the library or people who use library meeting rooms to hold a meeting, these are not programs. However, if the library were to offer a story-time during lunch or a magic show or a book discussion etc... you would count that as a library program. The pleasure of using library property does not a library program make.. Passive programming is NOT included in the programs count! The current thinking is that putting out a chess board, having a puzzle table or making coloring sheets available is not providing a program. There has been talk about figuring out a way to effectively count passive programming at the national level but we are not there yet." Getting the message across on what to and what not to count to our public libraries can prove to be a challenge though.

Before he left, I worked very closely with our State Data Coordinator about traditional programs, passive programs, and summer reading programs. If you want all of the details, you can find our crib sheet online: https://dpi.wi.gov/sites/default/files/imce/pld/pdf/annrpt_YS_data.pdf Regarding the SFSP, it really matters how the meals/snacks are being offered in relation to library services. In our state, it looks a bit different at every library, so there is not a blanket answer. If one of my libraries called me about this, here are some questions I would ask: * Was the library officially a "co-sponsor" of the program, on or off site? * Was the meal/snack offered to an assembled group or to individuals coming and going on their own schedule? * Was the meal/snack offered as part of or in conjunction with a traditional group program OR as an independent passive program ("drop-in activity" in Wisconsin)? * If it was part of a traditional group program, did the library introduces the group attending to any of the broad range of library services or activities or which directly provides information to participants? Programs may cover use of the library, library services, or library tours. Programs may also provide cultural, recreational, or educational information, often designed to meet a specific social need. * If it was part of an independent passive program, then it does not count under the federal definition of a program. * Remember, the annual report does not count every single thing that libraries offer (which is a good thing!). Just because something may not "count" on the annual report does not mean that it doesn't matter. If there is a reason you are offering a specific service, find a way to make sure that your library board understands why. I don't know if this adds anything to the conversation, but that's the scoop from my corner of the library universe. I'm glad to chat more, if there is interest/need. Hope to see some of you at ALA in Chicago!

The IMLS definition includes this line: "Count all children's programs, whether held on- or off-site, that are sponsored or co-sponsored by the library." As far as I can gather, ALL the Ohio libraries that are SFSP sites are actively involved in planning, promotion/publicity, set-up, meal provision, program/activity provision, clean-up, and/or supervision. I'd say that certainly makes them "co-sponsors" at the least. There must be someone at IMLS who can answer this conclusively. I could ask our State Data Coordinator to reach out if there is interest.

In this specific case and a many Oregon libraries, the onsite free Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) is more of a partnership in which the sponsor prepares and delivers lunches to the library and library staff or library volunteers set-up the meal area, distribute lunches, track SFSP statistics, report SFSP statistics to their sponsor, and clean up. In these cases, is SFSP a library service? Are these SFSPs planned event which introduces the group of children attending to a library service? At least two Oregon libraries are the SFSP sponsor and the site, library staff go grocery shopping and prepare the meals and do absolutely everything. In these cases, is SFSP a library service? Are these SFSPs planned event which introduces the group of children attending to a library service? If a library is just providing facilities for SFSP like they would to anyone else reserving space in the library, then that is clearly not a library program. It's another organization's program, they just happen to be using library space. Good to know not to count passive programs! I know it's been a hot topic with the data coordinators. We are without a data coordinator right now so just wanted to check where they landed on it... for this year at least!

We also don't count tutors that are not provided by the library and meet with their students at the library or people who use library meeting rooms to hold a meeting, these are not programs. However, if the library were to offer a story-time during lunch or a magic show or a book discussion etc... you would count that as a library program. The pleasure of using library property does not a library program make.. Passive programming is NOT included in the programs count! The current thinking is that putting out a chess board, having a puzzle table or making coloring sheets available is not providing a program. There has been talk about figuring out a way to effectively count passive programming at the national level but we are not there yet." Getting the message across on what to and what not to count to our public libraries can prove to be a challenge though.

When I conduct my annual summer library program evaluation, I ask if libraries participate in this program - either as a host site OR providing enrichment activities - and assumed those numbers were reported in total program attendance, since it happened on library program. However, I guess I will need to consult with my state data coordinator for clarification. According to the program definition as outlined by IMLS, I could see where an argument AGAINST counting the statistic could be made, depending on program sponsorship. Per the IMLS definition: A children's program is any planned event for which the primary audience is children and which introduces the group of children attending to any of the broad range of library services or activities for children or which directly provides information to participants. Children's programs may cover use of the library, library services, or library tours. Children's programs may also provide cultural, recreational, or educational information, often designed to meet a specific social need. Examples of these types of programs include story hours and summer reading events. Count all children's programs, whether held on- or off-site, that are sponsored or co-sponsored by the library. Do not include children's programs sponsored by other groups that use library facilities. If children's programs are offered as a series, count each program in the series. For example, a story hour offered once a week, 48 weeks a year, should be counted as 48 programs. Exclude library activities for children delivered on a one-to-one basis, rather than to a group, such as one-to-one literacy tutoring, services to homebound, homework assistance, and mentoring activities. This figure is a subset of the Total Number of Library Programs (data element #600) https://www.imls.gov/sites/default/files/legacy/assets/1/AssetManager/PLS_Defs_FY2014.pdf However, what constitutes sponsorship - and how does that affect partnerships and collaborations, such as summer feeding? The library may not be providing the food, but the space itself is a critical resource, as well as the marketing and promotions the library does around the program? It would be great to hear other thoughts on the topic.

If a library offers the free summer lunch program, then should that in and of itself be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? If a library offers the free summer lunch program and passive programming such as playing an audio book or making word searches available to kids while they eat, then should it be counted as a library program for the public library statistics? We have several libraries offering the free summer lunch program 5 days a week and doing a storytime and/or summer reading activity in conjunction with lunch once or twice a week. Obviously, those are programs to be tracked for public libraries statistics. However, they are wondering if they should count the other 3 or 4 lunches per week as a program or not. Does that make sense?

Message-ID: Good morning, Is anyone involved in a statewide or other shared effort to provide summer reading program/summer library program activities, resources, etc. that are inclusive of and accessible to deaf children and their deaf or hearing parents/families? And/or, do you know of any library in your state that offers a deaf-inclusive SRP/SLP that could be replicated, adapted, scaled, or just used for inspiration? I'm also interested in learning about other deaf-inclusive library-based reading/literacy and early literacy initiatives, besides SRP. We have been approached by a citizens' group that wants to increase library awareness of and responsiveness to deaf cultures, and to increase and promote library SRP and other reading/literacy supports for deaf children and teens in Ohio. I'd like to learn for my own background knowledge, and to share with them, any successful models from other states. I hope that exploring successful library practices and partnerships out in the field can help this group focus its energy and develop achievable goals, and help me be a useful resource person and partner to them.

ALA has announced a competitive grant program, sponsored by Google, that will fund a cohort of 25-50 school and public libraries to design computational thinking and computer science programs for and with youth, including underrepresented youth.

The $500,000 program is part of Phase III of Libraries Ready to Code, an ongoing collaboration between ALA and Google to ensure library staff are prepared to develop and deliver programming that promotes computer science (CS) and computational thinking (CT) among youth, two skills that will be required for challenges and jobs of the future. ALSC is partnering with ALA's Office for Information Technology Policy, AASL, and YALSA to implement this program. Learn more.
