are very pleased to announce that Wendy Cornelisen will join us as our new State Librarian effective March 1, 2022. Wendy comes to the State Library with over 15 years of progressive leadership in library positions. She started her library career as a reference
librarian in a public library outside of Nashville, TN. Her next position was managing the Tennessee Electronic Library, a statewide resource, at the Tennessee State Library & Archives. In 2014, she became the Assistant State Librarian at the Georgia Public
Library Service. In 2021, Wendy served as the Georgia Library Association President. <br>
<br>
Wendy has a Master of Library and Information Science from University of Tennessee, Knoxville and a B.S. in Anthropology from Iowa State University. In 2020, she was awarded both the 2020 ALA-ASGCLA Leadership & Professional Achievement Award** and the School
of Information Science Alumni Innovator Award. These honors were awarded in recognition of her many years of accomplished service to the libraries of Tennessee and Georgia, and for her dedication and leadership in building a statewide eBook service for Georgia’s
youngest readers, a service that was heavily used during the pandemic. <br>
<br>
Wendy will be working remotely in March and is planning to move to Oregon in April; she is excited about getting here and putting down Oregon roots. She will be accompanied by her husband, Scott, and her dog, Atticus. Her pandemic passions have been baking
for the weekly neighborhood happy hour (outdoors and socially distanced, of course) and pottery. She is looking forward to discovering all the best walking paths and clay studios in Salem. <br>
<br>
Welcome, Wendy. We are glad you are here! <br>

you think of school libraries, what comes to mind? For many people, memories focus on books and storytimes. However, a strong school library program is at the confluence of reading engagement, technology integration, information literacy – which includes standards-based
instruction focused on research and inquiry – and more. “To be information literate, a person must be able to recognize when information is needed and have the ability to locate, evaluate, and use effectively the needed information” (<a href="https://oregon.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=91dd1172fce9a235a5e993c03&id=fe84347c06&e=fcfe25ac6a" target="_blank"><b><span style="color:#163686;text-decoration:none">ALA,
1989</span></b></a>). In Oregon, there are no specific standards that require information literacy instruction. Licensed school librarians are trained to teach those skills, but for the past four decades, the number of librarians employed in Oregon public
schools has fallen dramatically (<a href="https://oregon.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=91dd1172fce9a235a5e993c03&id=e01677ceff&e=fcfe25ac6a" target="_blank"><b><span style="color:#163686;text-decoration:none">Oregon School Library Staffing, 2018</span></b></a>).
As of the 2020-21 school year, there were 147 FTE licensed school librarians (<a href="https://oregon.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=91dd1172fce9a235a5e993c03&id=017d09f625&e=fcfe25ac6a" target="_blank"><b><span style="color:#163686;text-decoration:none">Oregon

is valued, but there is not agreement about which staff positions are qualified or necessary to provide that instruction. It is also clear that expectations in the school library OARs regarding staffing and instruction need to be clarified. Next steps will
primarily depend on what actions the Oregon Legislature takes. However, the State Library and organizations such as the Oregon Association of School Libraries are tracking this situation. If you have questions,

Library since she was a kitten.<br>
<br>
Many thanks to all of the library staff and board members who welcomed me while I was visiting. It’s always wonderful to see firsthand the great work going on in Oregon libraries.<br>
<br>
While I of course love all the libraries in Oregon, Langlois Public Library has a special place in my heart. It was the location of my first library job, back when the library was in a studio apartment-sized room off the side of the old firehall. My first task
was attempting to decipher the gobbledygook off a corrupted 3¼” floppy disk that previously held library catalog records that were supposed to go on our CD-ROM catalog. You know, the good old days.<br>
<br>
That first library job was made possible because Langlois’s librarian at the time, Tobe Porter, saw potential in me, a low-income local kid who lived in a single-wide trailer with his disabled mother. Tobe remains the best librarian I know, with such an incredible,
innate understanding of what it means for a library to create community. In the course of my 20+ years in libraries, I frequently ask myself, what would Tobe do? Because she took a chance on a teen, I am the librarian I am today. <br>
<br>
If you work in a library, you, too, can give a teen a chance. The State Library is offering grants of up to $5,000 to libraries that want to hire teen interns this summer. The opportunity is open to all library types, and applications are due on March 15. Check
out our <a href="https://oregon.us11.list-manage.com/track/click?u=91dd1172fce9a235a5e993c03&id=65e580b482&e=fcfe25ac6a" target="_blank">

<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black">By Joel Henderson, Volunteer and Recording Studio Coordinator for Talking Books<br>
<br>
In late January, the National Library Service (NLS) announced to Talking Book network libraries that the large-print version of the January-February issue of their publication, <em><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">Talking Book Topics</span></em>
(<em><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">TBT</span></em>), would not be printed. Furthermore, supply chain issues and soaring printing costs would probably mean the end of the large print version of the publication altogether. For decades,
<em><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">TBT</span></em> has been the way the NLS has let users across the country know what new books have been added to the collection, and the large print version of
<em><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">TBT</span></em> was by far the most common version users received.<br>
<br>
You can imagine the response this announcement received. Many staff in libraries expressed a variety of concerns. But when you cannot get the necessary paper, the printing costs are too dang high, and the only things guaranteed in this life are death and taxes,
how do you approach a sudden and monumental change when it’s happening regardless of your concerns?<br>
<br>
Adapting to change in a healthy way starts with arranging your business practices with the assumption of change built in. Keep clean, accurate, and current user data because you never know when you’ll need that data to make quick decisions. Make a habit of
setting up review schedules for regular practices to ensure procedures are still serving users and staff the best way possible. When change is seen as a routine part of business, it becomes much easier to manage.<br>
<br>
Unexpected and immediate change can still be jarring, and that’s when emotional responses have a tendency of taking over. Here is where having good data comes in very handy, because it allows you to evaluate the merit of suggestions against solid and useful
information. What appears to be a massive problem according to anecdotal evidence and gut feelings often becomes a much smaller and more manageable change when seen through the lens of quality data.<br>
<br>
Here in Oregon, the Talking Book and Braille Library sees inevitable change as an opportunity to serve users better. We don’t rest on the phrase, “That’s how we’ve always done things,” and honestly, that phrase would show a lack of understanding of what users
need from us. That phrase also does not give users enough credit, limiting in our minds their own ability to change with us. Instead, our library is constantly asking the questions, “What problem is keeping our users up at night, and how are we the best option
to solve that problem?”<br>
<br>
One of the hardest parts of inevitable change is communicating that change to our power users. Initially, they are going to have emotional responses, but it is imperative to develop healthy boundaries and expect all users to follow them. Thankfully, your clean
data will help you identify the users who will feel most strongly about the change so you can actively target them with positive and reassuring messaging. This approach focuses your emotional energy where it is really needed instead of spreading yourself too
thin trying to reassure everyone. <br>
<br>
Ultimately, change is still hard, regardless of how well you have prepared for it. But when you feel empowered and others feel understood, change will not overwhelm you. Change will connect you in new ways, enabling you to appreciate yet another facet of the
gem of life. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
