<div dir="ltr">Hello April,<div><br></div><div> I was so proud of how you represented public libraries on Think Out Loud! Thank you for conveniently forgetting what the title of the book was and focusing on what the parent objected to instead. You nailed it!</div><div><br></div><div> The idea of working with local schools to create student cards is working really well in Multnomah County. We call it <a href="https://multcolib.org/libraryconnect">library connect</a>. Parents can opt out directly to their school. If the patron comes in outside of school we can upgrade their account to a regular library account. It doesn't get at the parent's concern about the child being allowed to check out whatever they want through the public library on a school trip, but it gives the parent a way to see what is checked out by logging in as the child or updating the contact information so they receive the notices.</div><div><br></div><div>Good work!<br clear="all"><div><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><div dir="ltr"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><b><span></span><span></span>Rinny Lakin</b></font></div><div dir="ltr"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif"><b>Library Clerk+</b></font></div><div dir="ltr"><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Multnomah County Library</font></div><div dir="ltr"><span style="font-size:12.8px">503.988.5123</span></div><div dir="ltr"><a href="http://multcolib.org" target="_blank">multcolib.org</a><br><div>Hillsdale Library,<span style="font-size:12.8px"> Wed-Sat</span><div><i style="font-size:12.8px">I use: she/her</i><br></div><div><br></div><div><img src="https://multcolib.org/sites/default/files/MultCoLib_2LineLogo_RGBemail_sig2.png" style="font-size:12.8px"><img src="https://mlsvc01-prod.s3.amazonaws.com/98d9880a001/6b83d8dd-ad0b-44fe-b889-268c3971db6f.jpg" alt="Displaying" style="font-size:12.8px" width="96" height="62"></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, May 25, 2022 at 1:31 PM April Witteveen via Libs-Or <<a href="mailto:libs-or@omls.oregon.gov">libs-or@omls.oregon.gov</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

<p class="MsoNormal">It’s been a wild ride to handle an intellectual freedom challenge here in Crook County, but there is tremendous support from the LGBTQ+ and allied community, intellectual freedom fighters, and other fans of the public library. It feels
good to be grounded in best practices established by ALA and intellectual freedom offices. To that end I want to thank Emily O’Neal and the rest of OIFC for assisting me while I was in the thick of it (and they continue to keep eyes on the Crook County School
District as their school libraries are next up under the microscope of these concerned parents.) Big kudos to the entire CCL staff as we learned together and continue to provide a united front for unrestricted access to information.<u></u><u></u></p>
