<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:9.0pt">This notice is being cross-posted to Library Youth Services, SmLibs, and OPLINlist. Thank you.<o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some Ohio libraries have already kicked off their summer programs, and many more will start in the next couple weeks. Amid all the fun and busyness, please note that the State Library asks all Ohio public libraries to report on their summer
library program/summer reading program (SLP/SRP) at program’s end. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Your participation in the <b>2018 SLP/SRP Evaluation</b> will help the State Library, Regional Library Systems, cooperating state agencies, and the Collaborative Summer Library Program to provide the most useful resources and support to
Ohio’s libraries. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Your participation also allows us to tell stakeholders and decision-makers how summer programs and activities at public libraries positively impact children, teens, families, adults, and communities.<o:p></o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The survey will be open from early June through the end of September. A link will be posted to OPLINlist, the Library Youth Services list, and the Small Libraries list, and will appear on the Ohio SRP page of the State Library website
(<a href="https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Flibrary.ohio.gov%2Fohio-summer-reading-program&data=01%7C01%7Cjdwyer%40library.ohio.gov%7C1bc6db28178d41d84cb008d4a386f998%7C50f8fcc494d84f0784eb36ed57c7c8a2%7C0&sdata=%2FEIk0TfIT5C2lF0%2FlZcpoV0RkvnQKF4ZW0Z6n7T77QI%3D&reserved=0">library.ohio.gov/ohio-summer-reading-program</a>).
Please help achieve 100% participation for 2018.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Here is a summary of the questions on the survey. Review these questions, and track your SLP/SRP activities accordingly if possible. The survey should take you as little as 3-5 minutes if you have your numbers ready at hand, longer if
you have extensive feedback to share. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Please note we are no longer asking for registration and completion numbers, because an increasing number of libraries no longer use traditional registration or completion methods. Instead, we are just asking for the number of individuals
(by age group) who participated in your SLP/SRP, and the head count at SLP/SRP-related programs. Also, we are no longer asking if you used the CSLP theme. We continue to welcome your ratings and comments on CSLP services and products.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">We will also again collect anecdotes and photos from libraries, to share statewide to demonstrate the positive impact of public library summer programming. Photos may be used in the annual Ohio SRP Evaluation Report (<a href="https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Flibrary.ohio.gov%2Fdocuments%2F2017-ohio-slpsrp-evaluation-report%2F&data=02%7C01%7Cjdwyer%40library.ohio.gov%7Cd3391100ff794252137208d56a4507a9%7C50f8fcc494d84f0784eb36ed57c7c8a2%7C0%7C0%7C636531767091488238&sdata=YSTA0i24XlwBzblazR8C8gH3MLrG%2BCt8eamBg9nGcW0%3D&reserved=0">library.ohio.gov/documents/2017-ohio-slpsrp-evaluation-report</a>).
Photos and stories may also be used in presentations, print, and/or online publications that communicate the importance of libraries for summer enrichment and literacy support. I encourage you to share your photos and stories with the State Library, so we
can show off your summer activities and their benefits.<o:p></o:p></p>
