Description: Please note: This webinar relates to a

California public libraries.
As
part of the California State Library’s 2017/18 ELF grant, five library
jurisdictions will be selected from a mix of rural, suburban, and urban locales
to receive a supply of Starlings – a wearable tech device – as well as staff
training and support to pilot various approaches to sharing and/or loaning the
devices to families. This webinar will provide an overview about this pilot
Starling project and explain the process for how your library jurisdiction can
apply to be one of the five pilot libraries.
Words
Matter: Libraries understand the power of words to help
develop young minds, and they’ve been encouraging parents to talk, read and
sing to their children for some time. Now the Starling can help reinforce these
efforts! In this age of busy lives and smartphones, most children aren’t
getting the exposure to words they need to reach their full potential. With the
Starling, parents can SEE the power of their words. Libraries all over the
country have discovered the Starling as a powerful new parent support tool that
can show parents they truly are their child’s first teacher.
What
is the Starling: The Starling is a wearable word
counter that picks up vocal sound waves (without recording), and parses out the
number of words a child is hearing. Those numbers are instantly updated on a parent’s
smartphone app, and on their library’s Starling Dashboard. It can: Demonstrate
to parents the power of words, and inspire them to sustain and expand their
early learning and literacy efforts, and Scaffold your parenting community’s
focus on talking, reading and singing.
Come
join us to explore the possibilities for sharing and loaning these devices with
your families!

“Censorship:
It’s Not Just For Books!”
Date & Time:
Wednesday, August 30, 2017 2:00 pm Eastern Daylight
Time (New York, GMT-04:00)
Presenter: Martin
Garnar, he is the dean of the Kraemer Family Library at the University of
Colorado Colorado Springs. He started teaching professional ethics for the
University of Denver’s library and information science program in 2005 and has
served as chair of the ALA Intellectual Freedom Committee, the ALA Committee on
Professional Ethics, and the ACRL Professional Values Committee. He’s currently
serving as the president of the Freedom to Read Foundation. Martin is a
frequent speaker on ethics and intellectual freedom at state, regional, and
national events, and served as the assistant editor for the 9th edition of
the ALA Intellectual Freedom Manual.
Description: When
you hear about censorship in libraries, you may automatically wonder what YA
book is under attack this time. However, many of the challenges to intellectual
freedom we’re facing go well beyond books. Online resources, speakers and
events, programs, and other library initiatives are also coming under fire, and
those of us in libraries may not always agree on what should be defended.
Please join us for a conversation about today’s threats to intellectual freedom
and what you can do to stand up for free expression.
خالص تحياتي وتقديري،
