LIBRARY BOARD TO HOLD SPECIAL MEETING IN AUGUST</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The
State Library Board will hold a special meeting by phone on Friday, August 6th.
They had planned to take the summer off, but will need to convene to hear
recommendations from the Library Services and Technology Act Advisory Council.
The Council held a meeting on July 21st and discussed some additional
expenditures of LSTA funds to exhaust a surplus caused by lower costs for the
statewide database license, and a shift in funding for Library Development
Services staff. Last year the State Library successfully negotiated a reduced
cost for general reference databases from Gale. In addition the Legislature
shifted funding for 2.5 Library Development staff positions from Federal funds
to General funds in response to a threatened cut-off of LSTA funds from the
Institute of Museum and Library Services. That has resulted in surplus LSTA
funds that need to be spent by September 30th of this year or returned to IMLS.
The LSTA Advisory Council is recommending to the Board that the surplus be used
to provide additional funding to the Oregon Digital Newspaper Project at the
University of Oregon, to purchase e-books and audiobooks for the Library2Go
project of the Oregon Digital Library Consortium, and to purchase e-books for
the Oregon School Library Information System. The Board will meet from 4 to 5
p.m. on August 6th. Anyone wishing to attend the meeting may come to Room 202
at the State Library where a speakerphone will be provided. The next regular
meeting of the State Library Board will be on October 15th at the State Library
in Salem.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

our best to make sure that we have your selected title on hand. Then, we will
send letters to all of our patrons in your community, notifying them of your
program and directing them to your library's website and contact information.
We will then compile a list of those who want to participate and we will make
sure that each one of them has a copy of your chosen book in time for the
event. In order to do this, we must have your help. Please contact Elke Bruton

approved our plan which includes reductions to the Ready to Read Grant Program
of 15% from the amount granted to qualifying public libraries in the first year

RIVER COUNTY LIBRARY WILL TRY AGAIN TO PASS DISTRICT</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>On July 13th the Board of
Commissioners of Hood River County voted to place a new special library
district measure on the November 9th ballot. In May 54% of voters in the County
defeated a measure to create a special library district with a permanent tax
rate of 70 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation. As a result, the library in
Hood River and the two branches in Cascade Locks and Parkdale closed at the end
of June. The permanent rate proposed for the November measure will be
determined over the next few weeks when the Commissioners hold hearings on the
measure. It is likely to be less than the rate requested in May. The Hood River
County Library, so far, has been the only public library to close entirely
during the Great Recession in Oregon. Several libraries have had to reduce
their operating hours, including the libraries in Corvallis, West Salem, and
Newberg.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

PUBLIC LIBRARIES STILL #2 IN CIRCULATION IN THE US</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The Institute of Museum and
Library Services has published the latest compilation of public library
statistics for all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The <a
href="http://harvester.census.gov/imls/pubs/pls/pub_detail.asp?id=130">report</a>
for 2008 shows that Oregon public libraries have maintained their second place
ranking for per capita circulation. As has been true for many years, Ohio
public libraries check out the most library materials per capita. For 2008 they
widened their lead over Oregon with 16.71 circulations per capita versus
Oregon’s 15.43. Oregon is well ahead of 3rd place Indiana (13.72) and 4th
place Utah (12.97). Oregon also continued to rank 2nd in interlibrary loans
borrowed per 1,000 population (984). Wisconsin is first in this category with
an amazing 1,400 interlibrary loans per 1,000. Ohio dominates in most
categories because they have the best public library funding of any other
state. In 2008 Ohio libraries spent $62.77 per capita on average. Oregon ranked
12th in this category with expenditures of $46.56 per capita. Oregon’s
worst showing is in reference transactions per capita (33rd), state funding
support (42nd) and Internet computers per 5,000 population (40th). Oregon might
move up in the latter category because of the impact of the latest funding for
computers from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. That funding support was
just beginning in 2008.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

Capitol Hill in Washington DC. Nearly 2,000 librarians and library supporters
wearing red “Vote for Libraries” t-shirts and holding signs rallied
for better library funding, support for school libraries, and open access to
government-funded research. Oregon was well-represented by about twenty
librarians and supporters, including ALA President-Elect Molly Raphael, Oregon
Library Association President-Elect Rob Everett and Oregon Association of
School Libraries President Ruth Murray. Before and after the morning rally,
State Librarian Jim Scheppke and Oregon Association of School Libraries
Past-President Carol Dinges led a delegation of school, public, and academic
librarians to visit all seven offices of Oregon’s Representatives and
Senators. The librarians met with Senator Jeff Merkley, Congressman Kurt
Schrader, Congressman Earl Blumenauer and with key aides in the other offices.
They reinforced the messages of Library Advocacy Day to increase funding for

access to all Federal government funded research, including Congressional
Research Services reports. </span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The <a

March 2010 presented a vision of pervasive and affordable broadband that will
provide every American an equal opportunity to engage in the educational,
economic, and social life of the nation. Recommendation 9.3 of the Plan
instructs the Institute of Museum and Library Services to "develop
guidelines for public access technology based on populations served and
organization size. These guidelines would help libraries and community-based
organizations assess their needs for public access workstations, portable
devices, and bandwidth.” In response, IMLS has issued a Request for
Proposals to develop a framework of the principles, elements, or
characteristics of organizations and communities that foster digital inclusion.
This framework is the first step in the development of final guidelines that
will be used as the basis for benchmarks, evaluation tools, or performance
measures. The ultimate purpose of this work is to provide policy makers and
community leaders with the tools they need to build the capacity of public
libraries and community-based organizations to meet the public's information
needs.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<p><span style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>The Great Recession has
caused devastation to a lot libraries nationwide. </span><em><span
style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'>Library Journal</span></em><span
style='font-family:"Arial","sans-serif"'> is working with others to create a <a
href="http://www.losinglibraries.org">website</a> to map the closures and
cutbacks. If you look at the map you’ll see that Oregon has been less
affected than some other states. Much of that is owing to the creation of our
library taxing district laws in the early 1980’s and the establishment,
since then, of 24 library taxing districts that provide permanent, dedicated
funding to 55 libraries, about 40% of all the public libraries in Oregon.<br>
<br>
As far as library closures go, we have had one, the Hood River County Library
in Hood River along with its two branches in Cascade Locks and Parkdale. The
defeat of a library district measure in May and the closure of the three
libraries at the end of June is seen as a tragedy and an embarrassment to many
in the community there. Thankfully the county commissioners have decided to try
again for a district in November, this time with a somewhat lower tax rate.<br>
<br>
If you are one of those “glass half full” people, like I try to be,
you might reflect on the fact that though three Hood River County libraries
were closed this year, three brand new public libraries opened, in Multnomah
County and Beaverton. The new Murray Scholls Branch of the Beaverton City
Library is that library’s first branch. It opened on June 25th. And the
new Troutdale Branch of the Multnomah County Library opened on July 12th. In
March, Multnomah County Library opened its new Kenton Branch. All three of
these new libraries are bringing library service to growing communities that
have, up until now, been without convenient service.<br>
<br>
I have been to the Kenton Branch and I really like what I see there. MCL is
trying out a lot of new ideas. They are really pushing self-service with ample
RFID checkout stations and only one small desk that sends a message to patrons
that library staff is there to help, but not to “serve.” Instead
staff is encouraged to roam around and assist library users proactively at the
point of need. There is a wonderful “Lucky Day” collection with
stacks of popular fiction and non-fiction that aren’t used to fill
reserves. The collection rewards people who come to the library to browse (a
behavior we may need to encourage again). There is a program space that doubles
as a reading room when there are no programs going on. There are laptop
computers to use when the desktop computers are all taken.<br>
<br>
I love the fact that the Kenton Branch is located in an converted storefront on
an old “main street” block that is being revitalized. There’s
no parking lot. There’s street parking. The location is very walkable and
bikable from the surrounding neighborhood, and it’s just a block from a
light rail stop.<br>
<br>
In its modest way the Kenton Branch is a public library of the future: compact,
self-service, friendly, flexible, accessible. Go see it, and see what I mean.
And be sure to take the Yellow Line. – Jim Scheppke</span><o:p></o:p></p>
