The Indiana State Library is conducting a survey about
professional development in Indiana libraries and what we can do to serve
you better. This survey is intended to be taken by all library
staff members. Please share widely with others in your library and
encourage them to fill out the survey. We anticipate it taking anywhere
from 5-15 minutes to complete. To reiterate, if you work in a library
in Indiana, we’d like you to take this survey.
Take the survey here
The survey will close at 8:00 AM Eastern time on November
28, 2016.

Join
the Indiana State Library for in-person Collaborative Summer Library Program (CSLP)
training where you will be introduced to the theme, the artwork and the manual (now available online)
for the 2017 CSLP Summer Reading Program. Each training will last 1.5 hours,
with a portion of that time reserved for roundtable-style discussion. What does
this mean? Bring your program ideas. Each
participant should bring at least one program idea to share with the
group. Program ideas may or may not be related to the CSLP theme Build a
Better
World. We want to hear what you’re excited about! These training
sessions will each be
worth 2 LEUs. Please see Upcoming Workshops & Important Dates for a
complete list of sessions.
The Indiana State Library is
excited to announce that effective
Monday, Nov. 14, 2016 Beth Yates, who has been serving as the library's regional
coordinator for the southeast, will be moving over to the position of
children’s
consultant.
Prior to her work at the Indiana State Library, Beth was
a children’s librarian for 12 years at the Johnson County Public Library. She
spent eight of those years as children's services manager. She looks forward to
utilizing her background in youth services to offer training and support to
children’s librarians throughout Indiana.
The state library is also very excited to welcome
Courtney Allison. She will take over the southeast region. Courtney’s first day
as southeast regional consultant is Dec. 5, 2017. Beth will continue to monitor
the southeast region until Courtney starts.
Congratulations to this year's 4th grade Statehood Day essay contest winners.

Ignite the Future. This free, family event will take place on Statehood Day,
Dec. 11, 2017 at the Indiana State Fairgrounds Indiana Farmers Coliseum from 10
a.m. to noon. The two-hour program will include a variety of speakers from
diverse faith backgrounds as well as music, dance and more.
Hoosiers of all ages are invited to celebrate this once in a

the Future and make the next 100 years of Indiana history even better than the
last 200. So, the only question now is how will you Ignite the Future?

Several times throughout the year, the Indianapolis Public
Library (IPL) holds a public book sale to dispose of duplicate, discarded or
unneeded materials from their collection. On the Monday following the public
sale the library offers the remainder of the collection to nonprofit organizations,
including libraries and correctional facilities.
Twice each year, in April and November, on the nonprofit day,
the Indiana State Library’s (ISL) Library Development Office (LDO) offers interlibrary
loan workshops for the public, private school and institutional libraries it
supports with its outreach services, such as IN-SHARE and InfoExpress. Topics
covered during these sessions include IN-SHARE, InfoExpress, effective use of
Book Club requests and SRCS, Indiana's new Statewide Remote Circulation
Service, which allows users to search a statewide catalog of over 30 million
items and request to have them delivered to their home library. Additionally,
ISL staff are on hand to bag up and prep the materials for shipping.
This year, on Nov. 21, 2016, ISL staff bagged and labeled 487 parcels, over-filling three 4’ by 4’ by 4’ pallets. That equals roughly 10,000 free
books that were made available to underfunded libraries around the state and to
institutional libraries. Look for the next workshop in April of 2017.
