[yscon] Trends/innovations in SRP?

[Petersen, Carolyn]

The trends I'm noticing is an emphasis on summer LEARNING as opposed to JUST summer reading.

Good morning,

In preparation for a talk I'm giving next week, I'm curious to know what trends, innovations, emerging best practices, etc. you are seeing in summer library programs.

I'm interested both in general trends, like the increased attention to family engagement or the adoption of outcome-based planning, and ideas specific to a music-themed SRP, like singing competitions.

In Ohio, the movement away from traditional reading-only challenges and toward reading/activity hybrids continues. Also, a small but growing number of libraries are letting participants set their own goals and eliminating the standard completion goal. Some have established community-wide goals (all together, the community reads X amount and/or volunteers/donates X amount, etc.).

Specific to the "Libraries Rock!" theme, several Ohio libraries are looking to purchase sets of ukuleles, with the intention to offer basic ukulele instruction as a program/series. After the summer, we hope they will add the ukuleles to their circulating collections (another lively trend is non-traditional circulating collections like bikes, guitars, museum passes, and tech toys). Our LSTA coordinator and I are threatening to send hashtag #CircTheUkes out into the world. :)

What are you seeing going on in your states and libraries?

Thanks,
Janet
