Young professionals
This document discusses strategies for libraries to attract and serve young adult patrons between the ages of 18-29. It notes that this demographic is often overlooked despite being nearly 20% of the adult population. Reasons why many young adults may not use the library include assuming the library only offers children's and senior programs, being unaware of resources, and seeing no value in the library. The document recommends libraries find ways to directly engage with young professionals through email lists, social media, word-of-mouth, local events, and partnering with other community groups to build relevance for this group.
Young Professionals
Young professionals are an important demographic for libraries to target but they often don't realize the value libraries can provide. To attract young professionals, libraries need to find programming and resources that appeal to them through social media, community involvement, unique events, and highlighting how libraries can meet their needs beyond what is typically offered for children and seniors. The key is persistent, multifaceted outreach through various channels to make young professionals aware of what libraries have to offer.
Libraries + teens
Libraries provide important resources and support for teens. They help bridge digital divides by providing internet access. They also help teens make sense of the massive amount of information available and teach important information literacy skills. Libraries give teens access to popular materials like books, movies, music and magazines that they enjoy but may not be able to afford otherwise. Librarians must advocate for teen services and programs within their communities to help teens develop into responsible adults.
10thdraft.Talbots
Amy Ling is applying for the Talbots scholarship to complete her bachelor's degree in social work. She had to put her education on hold for 30 years to support her family. Now her children are grown and she wants to finish her degree. She has worked at the North Valley Public Library for many years and started several successful programs there to help underprivileged women, including a Spanish language outreach program and a volunteer program. Her goal now is to start a mentoring program in Stevensville, Montana to help at-risk teens and young adults by matching them with adult volunteers to improve outcomes. She believes a Talbots scholarship would allow her to focus on her studies while establishing this new mentoring program.
A Personal Philosophy of Public Librarianship
I was recently asked to prepare a short presentation about my approach to public librarianship. This has been an extremely useful exercise for me and one I heartily recommend.
Advocacy 101
This document provides advocacy tips for library staff to help promote the value of public libraries. It outlines key talking points about how libraries provide free access to knowledge and resources for communities, including computers and internet access, books and materials, educational support, and genealogy resources, while only costing taxpayers a small amount each year. Staff are encouraged to advocate to local government and community influencers by sharing these messages about the positive impact and return on investment of public libraries.

Final project
The document discusses the importance of education in empowering people to critically engage with reality and transform their world. It then discusses several examples of organizations addressing social issues like poverty, discrimination, and hunger. It outlines instructions for a final project where students are asked to identify a social issue they care about, investigate it, and design a service project to address an identified community need through awareness, fundraising, or partnering with an existing organization. The goal is for students to work on meaningful projects that create positive change and allow others to get involved.

RSA Day 2020 Keynote - Show me your budget and I'll show you your values
The document discusses strategies for communicating with voters and decision makers about library budgets and funding. It emphasizes starting with data about how voters view libraries positively and use them, but that willingness to vote for funding has decreased. It suggests focusing messaging on shared values like education, community, and quality of life rather than just statistics. Stories that illustrate impacts on people are more effective than features alone. The document also discusses tailoring language to different political perspectives and sharing both successes and responsibly addressed failures.
Jane-FinchYouthSpeakOut
This document summarizes views shared by 50 youth ages 16-29 from the Jane-Finch community in Toronto about issues like violence, well-being, opportunities, and family/community.

Loneliness presentation jeff and cheryl
Loneliness is a growing public health epidemic that affects over 50% of people in the United States on a regular basis. Loneliness and social isolation have significant negative impacts on physical and mental health, increasing risks of conditions like high blood pressure, cognitive decline, and mortality. For people with disabilities, barriers often make it more difficult to form and maintain relationships, with the average person with disabilities having only about 24 relationships compared to 150 for others. The document provides strategies for individuals, families, and support systems to help reduce isolation by learning about a person's interests and strengths, identifying social opportunities in the community, and facilitating introductions and relationship building.

NCompass Live: Program Planning with a Marketing Mindset
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.

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.

Nebraska’s statewide education network, Network Nebraska, has made great strides in expanding broadband services and fostering digital equity in the state. By significantly expanding access to eduroam* in community anchor institutions, such as K-12 schools, community colleges, and libraries, ConnectEd Nebraska has made an important impact on the state’s educational landscape. In addition, ConnectEd Nebraska is piloting innovative collaborations between school districts and local ISPs to expand access to eduroam in unique ways that go beyond traditional anchor institutions, reducing barriers to broadband access and enhancing educational opportunities. Attend this session to learn what eduroam is, where it's deployed throughout the state, and how your library can get involved.

NCompass Live: Auditing Library Websites
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.
