EYE-OPENER: (lightly
edited, and links activated)
1) C.E. Survey Results From Northwest: Last month, the
LSAs and the State Library jointly sponsored a c.e. needs assessment using
an online product called SURVEY MONKEY. The beauty of SURVEY MONKEY
is that the results are immediate and automatically tabulated, so there's
no need for manual calculations. Thanks to the many Northwest library
staff who answered the survey, here are some highlights of our local results:
Of 111 responses, nearly 33% were from size C libraries (in the population
range from 1,000--2,500)
21% of respondents were from size A libraries (in towns less than 500 population)
In answering the questions "how would you rate your knowledge and skills,"
the following topics ranked highest, with this as the most frequent response
given: "I know some, but need to learn more on this topic:
Foundations (including intellectual freedom issues, library governance, library
laws, statewide programs) = 59%
PR and Marketing = 53%
Information Services (including reference service and choosing electronic
resources) = 53%
Computer Hardware and Software (including computer troubleshooting, using
WORD, EXCEL, POWERPOINT, etc.) = 53%
Planning Issues = 52%
These were overall answers from libraries in all size categories. In
other results, Tuesdays and Thursdays ranked as the best days for in-person
workshops. 67% indicated preference for full-day programs, while 37%
prefer half-days. A high of 82% of respondents have not yet taken any
online courses; 67% of those people indicated interest in taking online classes
in the future.
Again, thanks for taking your time to express your training needs and interests.
In addition to the highlights printed above, we're able to generate many
more results. Your answers will help shape NWILS' education and training
classes in the coming year!
Next spring, trustees will have a chance to weigh in when we conduct a similar
survey expressly for board members. And one more note: NWILS Board
has approved our own subscription to SURVEY MONKEY. So look for another
online questionnaire coming your way in July, when we'll conduct an evaluation
of NWILS' E-Rate services.
2) "Trustee Time & Talent" in August: Speaking of trustees,
a great opportunity for library boards is coming up in August. NWILS
is presenting "Trustee Time & Talent: Doing the Important Work of Library
Boards" on 2 Saturdays: choose between August 7th at Milford Public Library
or August 21st at the Carrollton Inn in Carroll, IA.
Last month, Northwest board presidents received a flyer in the mail advertising
this program. That was followed by an email notice to all library directors.
Here's a description: "...This program presents 3 key aspects of using trustees'
time and talent to greatest advantage by looking at (a) methods for recruiting
prospective people to fill vacancies; (b) ideas for keeping trustees actively
engaged with meaningful, role-appropriate tasks; and (c) retraining trustees
through ongoing educational opportunities. Ideas will encourage trustees
to focus on "Big Picture" issues and on their role as advocates. Plenty
of time for small group exercises and discussions..."
Holding a board development program on a Saturday--in the summertime--is
a departure for us. As you're well aware, trustees are a very hard
audience to reach through typical weekday programming. You all have
your own careers apart from the library, with family commitments and
community functions. But as library board members, you're also
"citizen advocates" and by attending this program, you'll be furthering the
cause of advocacy for yourself and your local library. So please use
your remaining June and upcoming July board meetings to approve one--or several:-)--trustees
from your board to attend.
This program is partially sponsored through a grant from the Iowa Library
Trustees' Association. For the full agenda--and to register online--visit
our website http://www.nwils.lib.ia.us/class.html ; We're hoping
for a great turnout in Milford and Carroll:-)
3) "Pathfinder" Workshops in August: Here's a heads-up about
even more workshop options scheduled for August. Most everyone who
attended the information literacy workshop in Cherokee commented that they
loved the concept of creating "pathfinders." And those who loved the
concept of pathfinders indicated a real interest in attending a workshop
on the topic. Ask and you shall receive:-)
This summer, NWILS is presenting 3 sessions on creating pathfinders.
Choose from August 4th at NICC in Sheldon, August 10th at Western Hills AEA
in Sioux City, or August 12th at Manson High School. All locations
are computer labs. So the good news is that this class will allow for
hands-on practice. The less-than-good news is that seating is limited.
For those of you who missed this discussion in Cherokee, a pathfinder is
a new-and-improved version of the age-old bibliography. Pathfinders
are informational brochures on a given topic, like Lewis & Clark.
It would include all of the library's books on the subject, but also videos,
audio tapes, DVDs, magazine articles--and websites. This class will
introduce pathfinders as a component of teaching information literacy.
Plus, there'll be time for participants to actually create their own in class,
searching EBSCO and the Internet for supporting websites.
Full details, with online registration, will be available on NWILS website
this week. In the meantime, please note the dates and locations--and
stay tuned for more information. "The Pathfinder Project" is the result
of a partnership grant among Southwest, Central, and Northwest LSAs, along
with Dordt College, AEA13, Atlantic Public Library, and the community college
in Creston.

New LINKS of interest:
CONSORTIA
In July 2004 the Consortia will start to get set up to do the e-rate for
Funding Year July 1, 2005 - June 30, 2006.
Yes, this is the year after the year we are not yet (quite)
in, which will be Funding Year July 1, 2004 - June 30, 2005, we are at the
very end of Funding Year July 1, 2003 - June 30, 2004 and we still have outstanding
applications/appeals pending for ..... O-forget it! ANYWAY
Be watching for the next announcement in Friday Notes 2
If you have specific questions about your e-rate "account" call Glen,
9:00 - noon at NEILSA office.
B.E.A.R. Form 472 Reimbursements:
[Confusion exists the B.E.A.R. is a reimbursement (check) which will be applied
for at the end of the funding year, the Consortia only does B.E.A.R.'s at
that time. Discounts are applied for with the Form 486]
B.E.A.R. -- cont.
At the end of July we will send out a request for bills from all libraries
that have not received their credits, these will be used to file for
reimbursement. The filling for the B.E.A.R. (Form 472) will go
in at the end of July and we will close the Funding Year 2003 at that
point.
SO: IF you have not started receiving discounts
or if you have already told us you want a refund check send us a copy of
all the bills from July 2004 to June 2004 AFTER you get the July 2004 bill
from the vendor. PLEASE send it in one envelope and mark
the envelope Attn: Glen/BEAR.. You may send via US Postal Service
or van.
CIPA/NCIPA:
Have you changed your mind?
As of today, Friday June 25, 2004, you have 5 days
to tell the Consortia if you are going to filter, decided not to filter after
studying the options you have or are planning on installing (what?) filter-
IF you have NOT done so already.

Sandy Dixon
Consultant - State Library of Iowa
CE: {That would be classes with credits toward recertification.}
NEILSA provides and/or teaches continuing education classes on topics that
are specific to the needs of the librarians AND that are not offered
elsewhere. For example: while we certainly have the expertise to teach
a class on completing and filing the SLD e-rate forms, we have no intention
of doing a class on the subject. Why? Because: 1. Pamela Pfitzenmaier,
Ph.D. Director, Educational Telecommunications, Iowa Public Television teaches
a fine series of ICN classes on the topic and
2. most of the NE libraries are in the Consortia and so do not need
the detailed information about Forms 470, 471, 472, 486 and on and on and....
What we do offer is 1 and 2 hour sessions on specific topics at county meetings
at no charge for an appropriate number of credits toward recertification.
We also offer classes on library specific topics, such as the Cataloging
class and the upcoming "Get Organized" class for librarians and trustees.
If you need a class on bookkeeping you can get it at our fine community
colleges or in some high schools adult education offerings.
Finally, we also offer a Mentoring program, special classes for boards,
and individual topic(s) of concern classes. But all of these are offered
to individuals or to specific libraries and are not (generally) announced
to all.
You are also encouraged to attend classes offered by other LSA's, announced
classes offered by BCR, or classes offered through the State Library CE catalog.
On several occasions the Friday Notes 2 has promoted classes offered
by other organizations such as the "Preservation 101" series offered by ICPC,
or the tutorials offered by ALA, Self Directed
Learning Opportunities and classes offered by Web Junction.
IF you need something, you have but to ask and NEILSA will be happy to help
you find what you need, develop an individual education plan or investigate
a topic of interest to you. BUT you have to ask, we gave up our
mind reader with the last budget cut.
C.E. Survey Results From Northeast: digested
Last month, the LSAs and the State Library jointly sponsored a c.e. needs
assessment using an online product called SURVEY MONKEY. The beauty
of SURVEY MONKEY is that the results are immediate and automatically tabulated,
so there's no need for manual calculations. Thanks to the many Northeast
library staff who answered the survey, here are some highlights of our local
results.
Of 91 responses:
23.3% were from size C libraries (in the population range from 1,000--2,500)
22.2% were from size B libraries (501– 999)
16.7% of respondents were from size A libraries (in towns less than 500 population)
15.6% were from D size
11.1% were from E size
and 11.1% from libraries over 10,000 population
In answering the questions "how would you rate your knowledge and skills,"
the following topics ranked highest, with this as the most frequent response
given:
"I know some, but need to learn more on this topic:
Foundations (including intellectual freedom issues, library governance, library
laws, statewide programs) = 52.4%
PR and Marketing = 56.3%
Information Services (including reference service and choosing electronic
resources) = 60.3%
Computer Hardware and Software (including computer troubleshooting, using

Planning Issues = 58.3%
These were overall answers from libraries in all size categories.
In other results, Tuesday & Wednesday ranked as the best days for
in-person workshops.
51.3% indicated preference for full-day programs, while 48.7% prefer half-days.
A high of 71.2% of respondents have not yet taken any online courses;
75% of those people indicated interest in taking online classes in the future.
Again, thanks for taking your time to express your training needs and interests.
In addition to the highlights printed above, we're able to generate many
more results. Your answers will help shape NEILSA education and training
classes in the coming year! Yea - what she said!!

SPECIAL WORKSHOPS:
Trustee Workshop x Get Organized below
CLASSES in NEILSA:
Get Organized
This was so popular at ILA Annual meeting last year that the
room was FULL and people were turned away.
I will be sending a packet of materials to trustees about the
LSA, the "Get Organized" program, you might want to be prepared for questions
if you have not been educating your board about LSA services (existence).
Description: Get Organized examines areas
of your work life to identify ways you can be more efficient, ordered,
and organized. You'll learn how to:
* Organize your work space.
* Eliminate the clutter in drawers, closets,
and on shelves and bookcases.
* Throw away stuff you aren't using.
* Buy office products that will help you
stay organized.
* Buy software that will help you organize
your calendar, to-do lists, and address book.
* Reduce the amount of paper that you accumulate.
* Stay ahead of filing.
Getting organized and staying organized is a great way to reduce
the stress in your life and feel more confident about yourself and the
work you are doing.
NOTES:
This is planned in two sessions one on August 20 (Friday) & 21 (Saturday).
The Friday session will be aimed directly to the needs of the
public librarian.
The Saturday session will be directed to the needs of Trustees.

Building Consulting Grants
The State Library
allocates Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) funds to provide
Iowa libraries with building consultation. These grants allow
librarians to get professional advice from impartial consultants who provide
guidance and recommendations to library staff, city officials and the
community on the extent and complexity of a building project. The
building consulting grants have been funded by the State Library since
fiscal year 1994. Grants of up to $2,500 will be awarded as funds
are available. A library that has
received the entire $2,500 grant is not eligible for another one.

NEW STANDARDS NOTICE
Draft
4th edition of "In Service to Iowa: Public Library Measures of Quality".
AT:
http://www.silo.lib.ia.us/for-ia-libraries/accr-and-standards/index.html
I strongly suggest you plan on attending one of the session
preferably with your Board, or at least one active board member. It
would not hurt to bring your city council contact, mayor or city clerk BEST
would be to bring all of the above, plus your Friend(s) and half the town,
but at a very minimum the director should attend.
WHY? There have been changes and the program is tighter, below are
a couple of examples from Tier I:
NOTE: the Bold & Italic are the old standards, the Bold
are the new standard & the plain print are Ken's editorial comments.
Old Standard 77
The library has a catalog of its holdings located in an area easily accessible
to users, staff and materials.
Some standards have such minor changes you will not even notice the change.
Standard 63
The library has a catalog of its holdings located in an area easily
accessible to users, staff and materials.
A catalog is defined as a listing of the library's holdings.
Catalogs may take many forms, including books, card, microfiche and computer
catalogs. [From In Service to Iowa. Public Library Measures of Quality,
4rd edition Appendix E.]
The library will create and maintain a listing of the materials available
in the library for use by its users. This listing is most effective if users
and staff can locate materials using several different methods such as an
author search, title search and/or subject search. The catalog will be regularly
updated to include the listings of the new materials the library has acquired.
The catalog will also have the listings removed of the materials the library
no longer owns. The format of the catalog may, for example, be the traditional
card catalog or the catalog holdings may be electronically available via
computer. The library will determine what format is most appropriate for
its catalog.
The catalog will be located in an area of the library that is easily
accessible to users, staff and materials.
Old Standard 48
The library provides reference and readers advisory service to residents
of all ages in person and by telephone during all the hours the library
is open.
Old Standard 51
The library cooperates with other types of libraries and with other agencies
in the local area to provide information services to all residents. Questions
that cannot be answered locally are forwarded to the libraries backup reference
center, if applicable.
New Standard 41
Using print and online resources, the library provides reference and readers
advisory service to residents of all ages, in person and by telephone, during
all the hours the library is open. Questions that cannot be answered
locally are forwarded to the libraries backup reference center, if applicable.
The essential difference between a library and a book store or
reading room is that libraries answer questions. Libraries answer
all kinds of questions for all kinds of people. The question may be
"If I liked Harry Potter what else can I real like that?" (reader advisory
xx #2) or it may be "What is the boiling point of C2H2OH in this town
at STP?" In Iowa provision has been made for professional reference
librarians to answer questions outside of the scope of the local library,
this standard expects the local library to use that resource to assist Iowa's
in their reference needs. For more information about backup reference service
contact your LSA.
This standard also expects the library to be able to answer questions not
only by using the Internet but also through traditional materials/sources.
All library staff should be able to answer reference questions for any patrons
or be able to refer the customer to a person who can answer the reference
request.
You wrote:
Ken, I'm new what is this stuff about standards? [Name withheld by
request (you know who you are)]
standard
(LEVEL OF QUALITY)
noun
something that others
of a similar type are compared to
or measured by,
or the
expected level of quality
moral/ethical/community
standards
That's not their
usual standard of service.
The new standard
will allow data to be sent over telephone wires at higher speeds.
http://dictionary.cambridge.org/define.asp?key=standard*2+0&dict=A
When we speak of "Standards" we are talking about the minimum
level od service that the people of a community should be able to expect from
an agency called a library. An example I used earlier is:
EDITORIAL-EDITORIAL-EDITORIAL
STATEMENT BY Ken
The essential difference between
a library and a book store or reading room is that libraries answer questions.
Libraries answer all kinds of questions for all kinds of people. The
question may be "If I liked Harry Potter what else can I real like that?"
(reader advisory xx #2) or it may be "What is the boiling point of
C2H2OH in this town at STP?" In Iowa provision has been made for professional
reference librarians to answer questions outside of the scope of the local
library, this standard expects the local library to use that resource to
assist Iowa's in their reference needs.
One of the things no one wants to talk about is (HUSH cover your eyes)
"reading rooms". The reason for this is a lot like a big old bit of
Spinach on your front tooth, it is so embarrassing to admit that an
agency that can not even make the minimum level (Tier I) is not a library.
What makes this so sad is that these agencies (reading rooms) perform
a vital service for people, they provide access to the much larger world
of information to be found in real libraries. Another point is that
a reading room should & could expect to receive more not less help from
the rest of the information services (library) world. And yet
provide an appropriate local level of instant service by supplying popular
materials for reading, preschool programing, K-12 study space and the like.
Instead of being a poor library with an underpaid, untrained staff
and board, a community could have an agency that met the real needs of the
community. For Example: If all you could afford was a dial up Internet
connection you would not meet the current "standard" of Internet most people
expect from a public library in the US. But the dialup is better than
nothing. To claim that you are a library when you can not meet the
minimum standards of such is .... [I am not to say such things so - you decide!]
