How to Tackle Sustainability in Your Proposal: You can’t run the program without the grant\, but the funder wants to know how you’ll continue the program’s impact once the grant ends! It’s a catch-22. Right? This online grant training will show you how to handle the dreaded sustainability question by developing a program plan focused on continued impact. \n\n\n\nHow to Create a Budget for Your Grant Proposal: The program budget is one of the most important parts of your grant proposal. Nail it and you increase your chances of winning a grant\, leave it incomplete and you may ruin your chances altogether. Learn to draft a thorough budget that tells the same story as your narrative\, but in the language of dollars. \n\n\n\nBoth webinar presentations run 45 minutes plus 15 minutes of pre-recorded Q&A. Access to these two on-demand webinars lasts from August 1 through September 30.

This causes them to adopt ‘root cause’ mindsets\, only to find themselves facing a set of different\, but related questions down the line. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis 2-part workshop will introduce you to a highly effective alternative to traditional “problem-focused” approaches through the practice of Appreciative Inquiry. \n\n\n\nAppreciative Inquiry (AI) is a strengths-based\, positive approach to leadership development and organizational change. At its heart\, AI is about the search for the best in people\, their organizations\, and their communities. AI is not so much a shift in the methods and models of organizational change\, but a fundamental shift in the overall perspective to ‘see’ and to ‘inquire’ into our strengths\, possibilities\, and successes. Have you or your library ever questioned: \n\n\n\nHow can we fix our lack of engagement?What do we do about low motivation?Why are people just not on board? \n\n\n\nAppreciative Inquiry can not only help to address these common challenges but actually change how we approach them! \n\n\n\nJoin us for this interactive webinar for an introduction to AI and its practice and learn how teams and organizations use AI to understand best practices\, develop strategic plans\, shift culture\, and create forward momentum on small and large-scale initiatives. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will be of interest to: Library staff interested in learning about how the practice of Appreciative Inquiry can be used to bring change to their library. \n\n\n\nPresented by :: Jenifer Shurson \n\n\n\nRegister for this two-part 90-minute virtual workshop.Part 1: Thursday\, July 15\, 2021 12 -1:30pm PacificPart 2: Thursday\, July 22\, 2021 12 -1:30pm Pacific \n\n\n\nCALL SPONSORED: In order to gain the most impact from learning events sponsored by the CALL grant\, we ask that all participants engage fully (attend\, participate\, discuss and share).

Foremost amongst them was the need for more support for our unemployed and underemployed community members. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe data coming from Brookings and other trusted sources indicate the wealth gap is widening and vulnerable populations are reporting a lack of skills and concern for future employment. The days of Wi-Fi access and resume help are not making the impact they did five years ago. Libraries across North America have heard the call for career services and workforce development action but where do we start? What is our responsibility to the resource partners already working on these issues? How do we expand rather than duplicate services without taking staff time from other priorities? \n\n\n\nThese questions and more will be explored as a group through leveraging helpful tools like concept canvases and ecosystem mapping. Libraries are uniquely positioned to collaborate with traditional community resources for more impactful and scalable opportunities. This practical approach will lead to actionable steps and better outcomes for libraries’ workforce development efforts. \n\n\n\nDuring this course\, we will explore the employment barriers our customers face and our local ecosystems already addressing these issues\, and how to create collaborative learning opportunities and sustainable\, impactful career services. \n\n\n\nBy the end of this course\, learners will: \n\n\n\nIdentify their Workforce Development EcosystemBuild a dashboard for metricsImplement best practices for community partnersLearn adult education tips and tricksPlan for storytelling\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nCourse Dates: July 20 – August 16\, 2021This four-week course will include two interactive online sessions: \n\n\n\nWed\, July 21\, 2021 at 10:30am-11:45am PTWed\, August 4\, 2021 at 10:30am-11:45am PT\n\n\n\nPlease make every effort to ensure that you are able to attend these two sessions before enrolling in the course.

This causes them to adopt ‘root cause’ mindsets\, only to find themselves facing a set of different\, but related questions down the line. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis 2-part workshop will introduce you to a highly effective alternative to traditional “problem-focused” approaches through the practice of Appreciative Inquiry. \n\n\n\nAppreciative Inquiry (AI) is a strengths-based\, positive approach to leadership development and organizational change. At its heart\, AI is about the search for the best in people\, their organizations\, and their communities. AI is not so much a shift in the methods and models of organizational change\, but a fundamental shift in the overall perspective to ‘see’ and to ‘inquire’ into our strengths\, possibilities\, and successes. Have you or your library ever questioned: \n\n\n\nHow can we fix our lack of engagement?What do we do about low motivation?Why are people just not on board? \n\n\n\nAppreciative Inquiry can not only help to address these common challenges but actually change how we approach them! \n\n\n\nJoin us for this interactive webinar for an introduction to AI and its practice and learn how teams and organizations use AI to understand best practices\, develop strategic plans\, shift culture\, and create forward momentum on small and large-scale initiatives. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will be of interest to: Library staff interested in learning about how the practice of Appreciative Inquiry can be used to bring change to their library. \n\n\n\nPresented by :: Jenifer Shurson \n\n\n\nRegister for this two-part 90-minute virtual workshop.Part 1: Thursday\, July 15\, 2021 12 -1:30pm PacificPart 2: Thursday\, July 22\, 2021 12 -1:30pm Pacific \n\n\n\nCALL SPONSORED: In order to gain the most impact from learning events sponsored by the CALL grant\, we ask that all participants engage fully (attend\, participate\, discuss and share).

You will indicate your training date preference in the application. \n\n\n\nCrisis Prevention Institute (CPI) is one of the nation’s pre-eminent conflict de-escalation trainers. A number of California libraries have trained with CPI and have given it highly favorable ratings: “staff got the tools they needed to face any situation [and] came out of the training revitalized\,” says one director. Verbal Intervention (VI) trains staff to respond to crisis situations with a focus on de-escalation techniques and safe\, non-restrictive interventions. \n\n\n\nThere is limited seating for each training (30 seats for each date). We’ll accept applications from library jurisdictions\, rather than from individuals.

As more people represent themselves in court\, more are coming to the library to seek answers to their legal questions.  \n\n\n\nIn this webinar\, Deborah Hamilton will focus on how to handle legal questions from patrons.  We will look at how to do a legal reference interview and what types of information you can provide; how to connect with legal service organizations in the community so you can make good referrals; and discuss possible ideas for legal programs that you can offer to your patrons.  \n\n\n\nREFERRAL.

But as in any relationship\, communication is key to success. This webinar will address fundamental ideas about effective communication with a variety of audiences. Participants will reflect on the iceberg as a metaphor for the ways in which life experiences impact their own communication and practice behaviors that demonstrate active listening\, including open-ended questioning. Presenters will share lessons learned about effective communication in the context of COVID-19 and encourage participants to share their own experiences. \n\n\n\nWe hope you will join us for part 3 of this series on community-centered libraries\, which will be offered on August 5.

The basic functions of access services include circulating materials\, maintaining physical collections\, and assisting library users with diverse needs. \n\n\n\nAccessibility from Legal Compliance to Disability Justice \n\n\n\nDates: July 5 – August 1 \n\n\n\nHow do we make our libraries more accessible for people with disabilities? The Americans with Disabilities Act was passed in 1990\, but barriers still exist for both patrons and staff with disabilities. Some activists and scholars have suggested that we need a more radical approach than the rights-based framework of legal compliance\, an approach called disability justice. In this course you will learn different frameworks for understanding disability and achieving accessibility\, and practice identifying these frameworks in your own work. You will think critically about your own approach to accessibility and make concrete changes to a project or area of work to increase access for marginalized individuals including those with disabilities. \n\n\n\nDewey Decimal Classification \n\n\n\nDates: July 5 – August 1 \n\n\n\nThis course focuses on learning the structure and notational system of the Dewey Decimal Classification system\, 23rd edition\, using a combination of print (when available) and WebDewey. The Introduction to DDC functions as a mini-textbook and will be used as the primary source of number building techniques. \n\n\n\nExploring STEAM Concepts Through Storytimes \n\n\n\nDates: July 5 – August 1 \n\n\n\nWhile the information and activities in this training can be used to offer separate STEAM programs\, the approach in this course is that these concepts are on-going in all we do\, including our storytimes. By becoming aware of these connections using books and other activities\, we also help storytime participants\, children and adults\, understand and build on these concepts throughout the day. \n\n\n\nGaming in Libraries \n\n\n\nDates: July 5 – August 1 \n\n\n\nIn this course the instructors will discuss how they have each created gaming programs at their own libraries. Attendees will be encouraged to consider their own community needs when creating a gaming program. \n\n\n\nImplementing and Managing Organizational Change \n\n\n\nDates: July 5 – August 1 \n\n\n\nThis course will help you navigate the myriad of change models that exist while identifying strategies to effectuate transformational change-one which is self-sustaining\, occurs system-wide\, and involves both internal and external stakeholders. You will work on identifying your organization’s readiness for change as well as specific strategies to implement and assess how your organization has evolved. \n\n\n\nCALL SPONSORED: In order to gain the most impact from learning events sponsored by the CALL grant\, we ask that all participants engage fully (attend\, participate\, discuss and share).

While school-age children are becoming overwhelmed with work and screens\, parents are often at a loss to find creative ways to engage younger children who are temporarily unable to attend daycare or preschool. Libraries have stepped in to offer virtual storytimes for their patrons\, but what can we offer that directly supports parents’ and caregivers’ engagement with children? \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nLibraries have an opportunity to reach out to their families and give them a behind-the-scenes look at how we create dynamic and enjoyable programs for children\, giving parents tools to adapt library crafts and activities to use with their children. Librarians can create streaming\, recorded\, and written content for parents\, offer take-home activity kits\, and more. \n\n\n\nPresented by :: Rebecca Donnelly\, librarian and author \n\n\n\nCALL EXCLUSIVE: This webinar is only available to California Library staff. Register to attend live or visit the CALL Academy one week after delivery for a recording.
