<p class="MsoNormal">Dear Public Library Directors,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The State Library and OLA’s Children’s Services Division are talking about how we can better support public libraries working with their regional
<a href="http://oregonearlylearning.com/other-priorities/community-based-coordinators-of-early-learning-services-hubs/">
Early Learning Hub</a>. To get started, we need a little information from libraries.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Please have one person at your library complete this online survey by February 1, 2015:
<a href="https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ELHubs">https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/ELHubs</a>
<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If your library is <b><i>not </i></b>working with your Early Learning Hub, the survey will take you less than 5 minutes to complete because you will only have to answer two questions.
<br>
<br>
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If your library is working with your Early Learning Hub, the survey will take you at least 10 minutes to complete. Most are multiple choice questions so shouldn’t take you much time, but there are five optional open-ended questions at the
end that will take you as much or as little time as you choose to spend on them.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I will be sending an email out on the kids-lib, OYAN, and libs-or listservs to let your staff know you have the link to this survey.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please let me know if you have any questions.<o:p></o:p></p>
