[yscon] Survey Says...

[Greta Bergquist]

Oregon has state funds specifically for our 133 libraries, they can go to either early literacy or summer reading. Every library gets a base grant of $1050, which then goes up based on population. The biggest amount given is to our biggest county, Multnomah, which receives $100,000 because they're serving about 96,000 kids, but most of the grants range from $2000-$10,000. Most of our big systems/branches use these funds for early literacy, but for our smallest libraries often this is the only funding source for kids' programs, so most of them use it for summer reading.

I've attached the application each library completes every year, and you can see the questions we ask about how they're implementing summer reading. This information is currently living on paper, my hope is to get it into some kind of grants management system where we can export to excel quickly.

In any event, there's some good outcome questions and you can see what we're trying to capture. :)

Happy Thursday,

Here is a copy of our summer survey - not sure if it is what you are looking for!

Hi All,

Please forgive me if this has been asked before. I know many of you conduct post-Summer Library Program surveys in your state. I am looking for something a little more general. We are interested in finding out how libraries in our state "do" their summer library programs...what do they call it, what ages, how do they measure, when do they start planning, how much of the budget do they dedicate, do they use the manual or just the graphics, etc. (I just re-read what I wrote and it sounds like I want to do an anthropological study!)

Have any of you done a survey like this? Or does your post-SLP survey speak to some of these issues? Please send anything my way. I'd be most appreciative!

Thanks in advance,
Tessa
