Meetings

Friday, January 23rd: Team C met for the first time. At that meeting we introduced ourselves, discussed methods of communication and tossed around ideas for possible programs for the 2010 PLA conference.

January 25: our team (minus one) joined the conference planning committee already in progress. We observed the operations of the committee, adding our opinions when appropriate. The scheduled team c meeting was very short. We agreed to submit a proposal for the conference on innovative programming and services for adults in 20s and 30s. We also agreed to try using meebo for synchronous meetings. Kristen set up a Meebo room that can be embedded on a website and a shared Google calendar.

Feb. 4: @ 12E/11C on Meebo. The group held their first virtual meeting. Transcript here. If that doesn't work, try this [1]

March 5: @ 12E/11C on Meebo. Meeting has been rescheduled for March 19 @ 12E/11C on Meebo

March 19: Team C split up jobs for poster session and will highlight Portland & the conference. Materials include conference & tourist giveaways & a save the date postcard for the Teams PLA program. The team is still deciding on a Mt. Hood model. For the PLA proposal it will be sent out to the team for approval then to the PLA committee. The program will be a 6 person panel comprised of librarians from Brooklyn, Kansas City, Multnomah, Chicago & Omaha. The team is working to confirm the speakers.

April 30: @ 12E/11C on Meebo. The group discussed progress with former assignments. It was decided to further split the display for the poster session at ALA annual, with three panels, one each on Portland, PLA 2010 conference, and Team C's session at the PLA conference. The work for the panels was split into three teams. The work of printing the save the date postcards was also split amongst the group members. http://chatlogs.meebo.com/room/el2009c/logs/2009/04/30/

June 11th 12E/11C:

AGENDA FOR NEXT MEETING:
A. Update on PLA 2010 Proposal
B. Update on poster session sections, decide on color & design theme
C. Update on save the date postcard

Program Proposal

[[2]] - Instructions for PLA Proposal

AUTHOR INFORMATION

Phone: Fax: E-mail:

1. ALA Member? yes

2. PLA Member? yes

3. Is this proposal being sponsored by a PLA committee or ALA unit/committee?

Can we say that the Emerging Leaders program is sponsoring it?

4. Biographical Information

Can we just put something about Emerging Leaders rather than 1 specific person?

PROPOSAL INFORMATION

1. Program Title

Working Title: If You Didn't Work Here, Would You Come? or Would You Be a Patron if You Weren't a Librarian?

2. All concurrent sessions/programs are 75 minutes long and seating is theater-style. Please select one format that will best describe your program:

3. Please choose only one subject category that best describes your program from the following list: Adult Services

4. Target Audiences: Anyone interested in drawing potential patrons in their 20-30's into the library

5. Program Description:

Do you ever feel like you're missing an important segment of your population? Where are all those quarter-life adults, adults without children and young professionals? If you look around and do not see them, they are your new underserved population. With an impressive panel of speakers from across the US, find out how to connect with this elusive group through innovative programming, direct marketing and smart connections. If you didn't work in a library, would you use it? If your answer is no, you need this program.

ROOM SET & EQUIPMENT NEEDS

Programs:Standard room set-up is theater-style to capacity with a head table for 6, podium with microphone, 1 table microphone on either side of the podium, LCD (computer/data) projector and screen. Please be cognizant of the fact that additional equipment must be rented at a significant cost to PLA.

6. Description

7. Objective 1: At the end of this program, participants will have learned about successful programs used to attract an underrepresented population to the library

8. Objective 2: To prove to public libraries that they can connect with this slippery population through many different avenues.

9. Objective 3: Participants will be able to identify this underrepresented population and implement targeted outreach strategies to reach them.

10. Notes/Comments/Other:

ADDITIONAL SPEAKER INFORMATION

This section allows the organizer to input information on the speakers proposed for the session. Program Organizers who are also speaking do not need to be listed in the Additional Speakers section.

The speaker entry form requires complete contact information for each speaker (name, title, organization, address, phone, fax and e-mail). The form also requires that you know the speaker's ALA and PLA membership status and that you indicate whether or not the speaker is employed in a library. Please have this information ready when you begin to enter your proposal. If the presenter is not an ALA or PLA member and does not work in a library, you will need to enter any financial support (honorarium, travel expenses) requested at this time.

It might be better to make this program a panel discussion/presentation with people from various systems that target this audience, I know that PLA is more receptive to programs that bring different library perspectives together

IDEAS:

-local ethnic (Brazilian, Ethiopian, Greek) restaurants with cooking demonstrations and free samples

- Rocky Horror Picture Show on our rooftop

- an improvisational comedy group

- an environmental speakers series with some of the more dynamic people in the field (Majora Carter of Harlem, Hunter Lovins, Wes Jackson of The Land Institute).

- [www.meetup.com!] At this site people are able to join groups and "meet up" with others that share similar interests

- connecting with niche groups, such as a manga art show cosponsored by a local comic book store.

- With 20 -somethings, our most difficult sell, our biggest success has been with thematic programming: the club columnist for the KC Star, local ethnic (Brazilian, Ethiopian, Greek) restaurants with cooking demonstrations and free samples, Rocky Horror Picture Show on our rooftop, an improvisational comedy group called Tantrum (!), an environmental speakers series with some of the more dynamic people in the field (Majora Carter of Harlem, Hunter Lovins, Wes Jackson of The Land Institute). We have also partnered with alternative schools, the National Center for Fathering, and many other organizations that have programs targeted at teens. In my four years as director I’d say the most important lesson I’ve learned is that there are a lot of other organizations with great programmatic abilities or large constituencies and the Power of 2 is usually squared. Crosby Kemper III, Chief Executive Kansas City Public Library.

- Speed Dating. Omaha Public Library had a very successful event, with 45 participants.
