“Serving Older Adults and Their Care
Partners at Your Library”
Date & Time: April 12th, 2018. Start Time: Pacific - 12 Noon, Mountain
- 1 PM, Central - 2 PM, Eastern - 3 PM
Description: By 2030, projections indicate that 25% of the US population will be 65 or
older. This means that libraries will be serving a steadily increasing number
of older patrons and their care partners.
This webinar will help you understand
and adapt to these users’ changing needs. During this one-hour session you’ll
experience an empathy-building aging simulation activity. We’ll also address
biases on aging and how to communicate with older adults who are confused. You
will have the opportunity to recognize what you are already doing well, and
learn how to hone your skills in meeting the unique needs of individual patrons
in this age group.
At the end of this one-hour webinar,
participants will:
* Increase their awareness and
knowledge concerning various aspects of the aging process
* Develop empathy for older adults’
functional losses and related feelings
* Identify at least one thing you are
already doing well in meeting the needs of older adult patrons (and their care
partners), and one action you can take to enhance the elder-friendly
environment at your library
Please join us for this fun and
engaging professional development opportunity, which is likely to help you
enhance service to the community, while improving your own job satisfaction.
This webinar will be of interest to:
anyone who has the opportunity to serve older adults at their library.
Webinars are free of charge, you can

Description: In 2008, OCLC published From Awareness to Funding: A Study of
Library Support in America, a study of the awareness, attitudes, and

research dispelled long-held assumptions and provided eye-opening insights
about who supports public library funding and for what reasons. A decade later,
OCLC has partnered with PLA and the ALA Office for Library Advocacy to
investigate perceptions and support among US voters today, and how they may
have shifted in the intervening years. In this session, presenters will share
key findings and analysis from the summary report; provide new details on library super supporters and probable supporters
in context with other library trends and research; and kickstart the discussion
on how library leaders and advocates can act on these findings.

questions to get you there.

in a three-part series bringing together research and practice from across library sectors,
covering the ins and outs of creating, and implementing assessments that
provide insightful, actionable data.
Who should attend?

research library staff who:
- have never worked with
data before,
- have some experience
but need a refresher, or
- would like to learn how
to best leverage assessment data to benefit their library.
