Goals

  • Implementation plan for initial phase of LibraryCorps
  • Plan for subsequent phases of a more comprehenisve LibraryCorps
  • Poster presentation that successfully “sells” ALA membership on the value of this unique volunteer corps

Resources

Possible models for volunteer+library matching service:

  • freecycle - "a grassroots and entirely nonprofit movement of people who are giving (& getting) stuff for free in their own towns"
  • craigslist - "local community classifieds and forums - a place to find jobs, housing, goods & services, social activities, a girlfriend or boyfriend, advice, community information, and just about anything else -- all for free, and in a relatively non-commercial environment"
  • Rhode Island Community Jobs - "a public e-mail announcement list that seeks to connect non-profit and public interest employers in the state with individuals seeking paid work that makes a difference in our communities"; from the Swearer Center at Brown University

Progress Report

  • early February: feasibility study received and reviewed by team members
  • February 25: BaseCamp account set up to help manage project
  • March 8: 5-way conference call to discuss changes and additions to the project plan; additional tasks assigned; self-imposed weekly Friday deadlines for smaller tasks and reviewing new material added to BaseCamp by other team members
