<p class="MsoNormal">The <a href="http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/youthsvcs/srp.certificates/OSLsrpBrief2011.pdf">
2011 Oregon Summer Reading Brief</a> has just been published! The SRP brief is a compilation of data that Oregon public libraries reported this September via the Summer Reading Statistics and Ordering Survey. The SRP brief provides a picture of summer reading
participation in Oregon. On <a href="http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/youthsvcs/oregon.srp.certificate.shtml#Oregon_Summer_Reading_Briefs">
the summer reading webpage</a> you will find the SRP brief in both a pdf and word.docx format. Libraries are encouraged to use the word.docx as a template to create their own summer reading brief to share their statistics with their library board, city council,
commissioners, and other library stake holders. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Based on requests from several libraries, the State Library is now publishing the
<a href="http://www.oregon.gov/OSL/LD/youthsvcs/srp.certificates/OregonSRPstatistics2011.pdf">
Summer Reading Statistics Spreadsheet</a>. This allows you to compare participation in summer reading at your library to similar libraries in Oregon. In addition, I included the population of children 0-14 years old from the 2011-2012 Ready to Read Grant
list and calculated the % of those children who signed-up and finished so you can get a better idea of the reach your program has in your community. This spreadsheet also includes adult summer reading statistics.
