 CoderDojo is a fun, easy way to incorporate
computer science and coding into your program offerings. During this webinar CoderDojo will cover all the necessary logistics to start a
CoderDojo coding club at your library. CoderDojo is a flexible, open source
program designed to introduce kids to computer science in a fun environment.
CoderDojo Indiana provides fundraising and curriculum support, as well as some
student and volunteer marketing tools. Libraries set their own club schedules
and CoderDojo is there to help them succeed.
The webinar will be held on Thursday, Jan. 26, 2017 from 10 a.m. to 11 a.m. and is eligible for one LEU. Register here.

The Indiana State Library (ISL) requests your
assistance in completing a required evaluation of its Library Services and
Technology Act (LSTA) supported library initiatives during the past five years.
The state library is working with QualityMetrics, a library consulting
firm, on this effort. They have designed a survey to help us better
understand how libraries and library patrons are making use of the LSTA-funded
services and resources provided by the state library. This survey should
take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Responses to the survey will
go directly to QualityMetrics and individual responses will not be associated
with any particular library in the report that is generated.
Take the survey here.
Thank you in advance for taking the time to complete
this survey. Your responses are very important will help ISL assess
the usage and benefit of LSTA-supported library services in Indiana during the
past five years and will help us plan for the next five years.
Over the years, the Indiana State Library’s Indiana Collection has come
to include many unique cookbooks, usually with some sort of Hoosier
connection. While browsing the closed stacks, the titles of three
cookbooks caught my interest. It is useful to mention that the word
“receipts” is old terminology for what we now call recipes. So if you
are ever searching library catalogs, digitized newspapers or online
materials for old recipes, you might want to try “receipts” as a keyword
instead.
