The document discusses the Equal Access Libraries initiative developed by Libraries for the Future to help libraries respond to changing community needs. It provides an overview of the initiative's implementation in different states and its guiding principles. It also describes the Access Skills Framework and Access Programs used by libraries to connect with and address the needs of specific audiences in their community. WebJunction.org is mentioned as an online space for discussing the Equal Access philosophy. The remainder consists of presentations from various Pennsylvania libraries outlining how they apply the guiding principles.
An overview of Wikipedia, followed by a discussion of the relationship between libraries and Wikipedia.
Wikipedia is a really important resource but a lot of people don’t fully understand how it works, and I think it’s particularly important for educators and librarians to do so. This presentation is about what WIkipedia is, how to edit it, and why we can use it as not only a useful source of information but a great information literacy teaching tool.

The Notable Reports Panel Strikes Again: WAPL 2017WiLS
From the Wisconsin Association of Public Libraries 2017 conference and presented by Vickie Stangel, Director, Dodgeville Public Library; Kelly TerKeurst, Director, Dwight Foster Public Library (Fort Atkinson); Gus Falkenberg, Technology and Design Director, Indianhead Federated Library System (Eau Claire); Cindy Fesemyer, Director, Columbus Public Library; Sara Gold, Community Liaison and Service Specialist, WiLS; Andrea Coffin, Community Liaison and Service Specialist, WiLS
Back by popular demand! Each year, a number of new reports about public libraries are produced by organizations like Pew, OCLC, Library Journal, The Aspen Institute, and others. These reports contain valuable information that can help us plan, develop services, and improve existing services, but unfortunately, few of us have the time to read every single one. The goal of this session is to help attendees get an overview of those reports and their implications for our work. Each panelist will share a summary of a report they believe is significant and discuss how they have used or will use the information at their library. Attendees will be encouraged to share other reports and insights that have mattered to them, too!

We can and we should: the libraries' role in open education
Libraries around the country, and the world, are increasingly devoting time and resources to open education. But why? In what way are libraries part of this movement and how does it serve our missions and services? This presentation will describe the value that libraries’ engagement in this space can offer to our institutions, our students, and our profession; and, to outline possible ways forward for libraries that are interested in committing their limited resources to this transformative effort.

Remind everyone that they did a brief approximation of the Assets and Needs assessment during yesterday’s workshop, which is why we’ll be starting today with the work plan. Be sure everyone has their Assets worksheet with them. The following four slides will be foreshadowing the day’s activities by placing them on the Skills Framework continuum. Go through the whole presentation as an overview first thing, then return to slide 8 (work plans) and leave the appropriate instructions projected as you work through each objective.
