<p class="MsoNormal">The 2021 Oregon Public Library Snapshot I released yesterday had an issue with how the
<b>total expenditures</b> figure was being calculated (I had mistakenly included salary expenditures twice).
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">This has now been corrected. My apologies for any confusion this may have caused – and thanks to Jeff Weiss at Scappoose and Peter Leonard at Cedar Mill for catching this error!:<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Hello Oregon public library directors,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I hope you are all doing well, and I have two pieces of information to share:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">The <b>
results are in from our recent “meta-survey,”</b> which asked for your feedback on a number of changes we’re considering for the
<b>2022 Oregon Public Library Statistical Report</b>. <o:p></o:p></li><ul style="margin-top:0in" type="disc">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo3">We had a fantastic response rate on this informal & optional survey, so thanks to all who took the time to complete it. A large majority of respondents are in favor of making all four
changes we’ve proposed (at least 75% of respondents supported each proposal). <o:p>
</o:p></li><li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level2 lfo3">Again, we have not yet made final decisions about these data elements for the 2022 stats report, but we really appreciate hearing from you – many of your comments articulated very
nuanced points that will help us going forward. You can see <a href="https://libguides.osl.state.or.us/ld.php?content_id=65973419">
a summary of the survey results in this PDF here.</a> Please share these results will colleagues who may have responded on behalf of your library.<o:p></o:p></li></ul>

<ol style="margin-top:0in" start="2" type="1">
<li class="MsoListParagraph" style="margin-left:0in;mso-list:l0 level1 lfo3">I’ve created a
<b>new <a href="https://public.tableau.com/app/profile/statelibraryoforegon/viz/2021OregonPublicLibrarySnapshot/2021Snapshot">
Oregon Public Library Snapshot</a></b> tool that features a select handful of the 2021 Statistical Report data. Choose your library from the dropdown list in the upper left, and download a copy of your library’s infographic using the
<i>Download PDF</i> button in the upper right. These tools are definitely works-in-progress, so I appreciate any and all feedback. Just a reminder that there is also a
