[kids-lib] Learn about literacy and summer reading software: no-cost demo for Oregon libraries only

[Katie Anderson]

Saturday at OLA's Children's Services Division Fall Workshop we briefly discussed summer reading software. This morning, I remembered there is an upcoming free webinar specifically for Oregon libraries about Beanstack, a summer reading software. If you are interested, read on!

Considering a new online Summer Reading solution or a new tool to engage families at your library? Join us for a free webinar to learn more about Beanstack<http://www.beanstack.org/>, a customized service designed to engage families with young readers - and community members of all ages.

Beanstack uniquely sends each patron a weekly personalized email that recommends a specific library program and book in your collection. The company also offers a Summer Reading option, providing participants with simple registration for the entire family under one account, easy tools for logging reading, and cool badges that kids can earn online or offline. Additionally, library staff use the service's administrative features to track incentives, run drawings, help patrons log reading, and produce branch-level or systemwide usage reports.

Join us to learn more at a webinar tailored to Oregon libraries, hosted by Beanstack's Chief Dad and co-founder, Felix Lloyd. We will demo Beanstack, and participants will be able to ask questions of Felix throughout the presentation.

WHEN: October 22, 9:00AM - 10:00AM PT
