This notice is being cross-posted to Library Youth Services, SmLibs, SEO-Members, OHLib, and OPLINlist.  Thank you.

Summer library programs (SLP) are starting up all around Ohio. The State Library asks all Ohio public libraries to report on their SLP at program's end. Your participation in the 2022 Ohio Summer Library Program Evaluation<https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/slpeval2022> will help the State Library, Regional Library Systems, suppliers of statewide incentives, and the Collaborative Summer Library Program to provide the most useful resources and support to Ohio's libraries.

Your participation also allows us to tell stakeholders and decision-makers how summer library programs positively impact children, teens, families, adults, and communities. Data from the survey is also shared with the Ohio Library Council for its advocacy work.

The survey is now open at www.surveymonkey.com/r/slpeval2022<http://www.surveymonkey.com/r/slpeval2022>
Reminders will be posted to this listserv during the summer. The link will also be added to the Ohio SLP page of the State Library website (library.ohio.gov/ohio-summer-library-program<https://library.ohio.gov/ohio-summer-library-program>).

Please help us achieve 100% participation for 2022!

Here is a summary of the questions on the survey.  Review these questions, and track your SLP activities accordingly if possible. The survey can take as little as 5-10 minutes if you have your numbers ready at hand, longer if you have narrative feedback to share. Many respondents spend 20-30 minutes on the survey. Your time is valuable, and your insights and feedback are valuable too.

2022 Ohio Summer Library Program Evaluation Preview:

  *   Library contact information
  *   Did your library offer a summer library program in 2022 for children ages 0-5? Children ages 6-11? Teens? Adults?
  *   How many children/teens/adults participated?
  *   Optional: registration/completion numbers, completion rate, outcomes, and/or any analysis of your participation results that you wish to share.
  *   Did you use a summer reading tracking/management tool?
  *   What was the total attendance at your library programs held during SLP (by age group)?
  *   What program and activity format(s) did you offer (e.g. outdoor, indoor, online etc.)?
  *   Optional: program observations, outcomes and/or any analysis of your programming results that you wish to share.
  *   Did your library participate in the Summer Food Service Program (SFSP) as a site(s) or provide outreach to SFSP sites?
  *   If you distributed the Ohio State Parks certificate, Ohio State Fair coupon, and/or Ohio Renaissance Festival coupon, how many of each did you distribute?
  *   Please rate various statewide/CSLP services and products, including the CSLP manual, workshops, statewide incentives, etc.
  *   Additional feedback, comments, suggestions.

We will also again collect anecdotes and photos from libraries, to share statewide to demonstrate the positive impact of public library summer programming.  Photos and stories may be used in the annual Ohio SLP Evaluation Report, and 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.

I hope you have a good summer!

Sincerely,
Janet
