Matt Mulder, Chief Community Engagement Strategist, Demco Kimberly Young, Former Deputy Director, Brown County Library In the past decade, the United States Department of Agriculture has been focusing on issues surrounding food deserts—defined as urban neighborhoods and rural towns without ready access to fresh, healthy, and affordable food. Food deserts are identified by using census data and GIS mapping tools. Those living in a food desert tend to be low-income or elderly. This lack of access to quality food results in a poor diet and in higher food expense as the residents tend to rely more on fast food restaurants or convenience stores. Building on the concept of the food desert, we began to wonder if there might also be a literacy desert—an area that has a high-probability of having a large number of children at risk of not becoming proficient readers. If we could identify areas of a community that were most likely in need, we could develop programs, outreach efforts and services to help address this need. Our findings were clear—literacy deserts are real, and in some cases, growing. Matt Mulder, Chief Community Engagement Strategist at Demco, will identify and define literacy deserts in Brown County and several other Wisconsin communities and discuss how the concept can also be applied for other core service areas. Kimberly Young, Former Brown County Library Deputy Director, will discuss the process of identifying Brown County as a literacy desert, how a plan was created to address it, and provide case studies from two other communities.

The relatively new role of Community (or Community Engagement) Curator is still being defined as museums struggle to identify how best to incorporate diverse audiences into their exhibits and programming. This session presents multiple views of how Community Curators position themselves to act as a conduit between the public and museum, developing interpretative materials, bringing external views to the museums attention, or building partnerships between the museum and community groups. Presenters will examine how museums can best interpret curatorial expertise and make space for community voice.

"A mind is a terrible thing to waste” and Education Impact Family Group believes that every person should have a chance to obtain education through all available resources. A library offers the opportunity for self-motivated learning and independent knowledge-seeking for all Ghanaian citizenry. Our sole mission is to make a most positive impact on education by providing and making educational resources and materials accessible even in the remotest areas Ghana, West Africa. We have generous friends, family members and business associates in the United States of America with books, media, computers, schools aids and supplies who await our plans to transport these gifts to Ghana for our Library. Numerous Louisiana universities and public libraries have donated TONS of books and educational resources and we are NOW in the midst of raising funds to have these WONDERFUL gifts transported to Ghana. Our MAIN goal is to raise the funds to secure the MUCH-needed 40-foot cargo container for sea transport from Louisiana to the Port of Tema in Ghana. To donate, please visit us at http://www.gofundme.com/FloatOurBoatCampaign Feel free to visit our website at www.educationimpactfamilygroup.org Thank you for supporting our efforts to "Supply Tools for A Better Education" for the people of Ghana

What does successful school outreach from the public library to schools look like? Is it about library cards? Databases? Gaming? Book Clubs? In this presentation, members of MyLibraryNYC (@mylibrarynyc) will discuss successes and lessons learned over the past 5 years of running this program. Best practices include: booktalking new and upcoming book titles for kids; school specific outreach - no one-size-fits-all outreach; working with stakeholders at each school. #yalsa16 #yaschooloutreach @mylibrarynyc

NCompass Live - April 10, 2024 http://nlc.nebraska.gov/ncompasslive/ Libraries have been offering programming for decades, and in many cases the model has been, "Let’s plan a program, promote it, and see who shows up." This approach hasn’t changed much, even with social and technological changes, not to mention the pandemic and streaming programs. Program planning with a marketing mindset starts with identifying your customer’s needs and wants, then developing programs and services to meet those needs and wants. We’ll discuss how to use research – quantitative and qualitative – to plan and market programs that will engage your customers. We’ll talk about "bundling" programs and services for different audience segments. We’ll also cover how this more strategic approach can save time and resources for your library. Presenter: Cordelia Anderson, Library Marketing and Communications Consultant, Cordelia Anderson Consulting.

NCompass Live - March 13, 2024 While every library is unique, they all seem to share one thing in common: they could use more money! Grant funding might be the just thing to help buy technology for STEM programming, get a new service initiative off the ground, or complete a renovation. But applying for grants can be overwhelming – and that’s assuming you can even find one for which you qualify. This session aims to introduce you to the tools to make the grant application process more easily navigable. In this session, Kathryn will provide tips for putting your best foot forward when it comes time to submit your proposal. Handouts include a roadmap to success and descriptions of various sections of the application. Presenter: Kathryn Brockmeier, Grant Consultant.

NCompass Live - January 17, 2024 http://nlc.nebraska.gov/ncompasslive/ Have you wondered if your library's website needs some work? How do you decide that, without being subjective? How do you know what to measure, or how to measure it? There are many current standards for content, images, navigation, usability, and more that can be readily applied to your website, allowing for a more objective analysis of what you currently have. A website audit can provide a valuable framework, especially before beginning a full or even partial redesign of your library's site. Learn about data-based principles that can guide your future work and discover some tools that can provide concrete specifics for elements that may need attention. Presenter: Laura Solomon, MCIW, MLS is the Library Services Manager for the Ohio Public Library Information Network (OPLIN). She has been doing web development and design for more than twenty years, in both public libraries and as an independent consultant. She specializes in developing with Drupal. She is a 2010 Library Journal Mover & Shaker. She's written three books about social media and content marketing, specifically for libraries, and speaks nationally on both these and technology-related topics. As a former children's librarian, she enjoys bringing the "fun of technology" to audiences and in giving libraries the tools they need to better serve the virtual customer.
