Library Advocacy

The Kansas Library Association, Governmental Affairs Committee has decided to not have an in person advocacy day at the State Capitol this year.

The Committee is suggesting different things to do each month during the year. For the month of February the committee encourages local librarians to work with your local newspaper on an article on how your library is funded and how the funding impacts services that you can provide for your community.

Reconsideration Policies and Your Library

Central Kansas Library System is having a continuation of the discussion of reconsideration policies and your library. Books are being challenged more and more within libraries. They are opening this discussion up to anyone who would like to join in throughout the state. The session will be on February 15, 2022, at 1:30 p.m. Here is the Zoom Link to participate in the discussion.

Gail Santy, Chrisitie Snyder, Maribeth Shafer, and Patty Collins will facilitate the discussion. The discussion will be on: new book challenges that have been submitted since January and revisiting past challenges; proposed legislation that could effect library collections; and where to find book reviews to assist you in your collection development.

State Library Survey

The System Libraries are two thirds finished in submitting the 2021 State Library Survey this year. For the nine that still have to submit remember the deadline is this weekend, February 6, 2021. If you aren’t going to make it by that deadline you can contact Alice Smith, LSTA & State Data Coordinator, at 785-296-2008 or by email alice.smith@ks.gov.

S.T.E.A.M. Train UP! this Tuesday at 2:00 pm

MIT Media Lab researchers have been teaming up with librarians across the country to create a variety of fun, educational programs under PLIX (Public Library Innovation Exchange). Join Jennifer McCulley, Youth Services Coordinator at McPherson Public Library and Creative Learning Ambassador for PLIX to learn about the program. You will learn how to access pre-prepared activities, resources, online workshops for librarians and a fantastic forum of librarians there to help. We’ll work through a sample activity to show you how easy it will be to implement creative learning in your library. Be prepared with some stuff from your craft supplies (or recycle bin)–because we are doing a program sample that will cost you next to nothing-Space Food!

Summer Reading Program Idea Swap February 10th

This next Thursday is the Summer Reading Program Idea Swap, February 10, starting at 10:00 am. The Swap is planned to be one and a half hours long. If we get done earlier we will do so for everyone to return to the regular work schedule. For those that registered you should have received an email from Anna Foote, Youth Consultant for NEKLS. If you don’t receive the Zoom link by Monday let me know, however the Zoom link is above in the calendar and here.

2 Factor Authentication

The System office is still waiting for the information from our Insurance Agent concerning two factor authentication. When we receive this information, office staff will ask any additional questions on how this will affect the System office and our member libraries. We want to ensure the information that we relay to you is as accurate as can be from us.

Dear Catalogers: A Word about Brief Bibs…

Auto-Graphics and I have been discussing brief bibs and how to save the circ history once the brief bib has been deleted. Here is what Paul has taught me:

“I have run a number of tests and unfortunately when you do delete the brief bib or even merge it to another record the circulation history of that item is lost. If you wanted to, it may be better to build out the brief bib instead of removing it, giving it better bibliographic information. When in AGcat, you can find a record in a cataloging resource and open the record up. Then you can open up the brief bib in AGcat as well and you will have 2 windows open in AGcat. Then under record you can use the “Copy Bibliographic data for overlay” (kind of like a merge) and bring over record data from the one record to the brief record and then save the brief record with the good bib info.“
*If you are interested in trying this procedure, you can create a list of ISBNs of the brief bibs with circ history you would like to keep, and send it to me. I can perform this “overlay” and see what happens. It might be a fun experiment!

Be Weather Conscious

Just a reminder for everyone during this time of year. Please be weather conscious when traveling. If you or any of your staff are scheduled to drive somewhere and inclement weather comes in, please consider if the trip is truly necessary or if it can be rescheduled. Sadly on my roundabout way of going home through Coldwater, on Tuesday, I had two reminders of how life can change in an instant. I was not involved in any accident, but I did have to help at two.

Dear ILLers,

COVID has presented challenges to libraries across the globe. Libraries are open, then they close–difficult to keep track of! Additionally, many Kansans are struggling with our health and wellness. If you are experiencing difficulty managing the library’s ILL activity during this hectic time, please let me know. I am always here to help and/or pause your participation, if you become overwhelmed and understaffed. 
The best way we can help each other is to keep SHAREit’s Request Manager current and updated every day the library is open. I promise to help you in any way that I can. – Kelly

2021 to a Close and Opening 2022

The month of January is that time for the System office to close out the previous year and make the transition into the new year. I will be out of the office for the State Library Survey Workdays and if there is time I will stop by libraries on the way back through.

I will work in my library visits as I did in 2021. There will be times that I will call and see if you are available, however the majority of the time I tend to stop in libraries on my way back through from scheduled visits to other libraries. I would love to visit with you when I stop in, but I realize there will be times your aren’t at the library or you might be busy. If you are busy and you can’t visit I understand and I will stop by another time.

Scott County Library Loaning Beauty Costume (Beauty & the Beast)

As part of the program I attended last year for Scott County Library and the County’s Parade I wore the Beast costume. The library also purchased a Beauty costume for one of their staff to wear. The library is generously offering this costume for use at other libraries if they plan to use the Beast costume for a program. The dress is pictured above and it is a small petit. Scott County Library will need to know with enough time in advance so they can send it to your library through the courier.

Thank you to Scott County Library for offering the Beauty costume to share with the rest of our membership.

Changes in Notary Public Law 2022

On January 1, 2022 the Notary Public Law has changed. Some of our libraries provide this service. If your library is one of the libraries that provides notary services please read through the brief entry here and then follow up with the actual documentation for more detailed information.

SB 106 is the new standard and the Kansas Secretary of State has issued a brief overview for the changes. If you wish to read Senate Bill 106 here is the link. To read the brief overview that the Kansas Secretary of State issued you can do so at this link.

One of the bigger changes is that now notaries have to keep a Notary Journal with the following entries:

1. Date and time of the notarial act;
2. description of the record, if any, and type of notarial act;
3. full name and address of each individual for whom the notarial act is performed;
4. if the individual is identified based on personal knowledge, a statement to that effect; If the individual is identified based on an identification credential, such as a driver’s license, or identified by a credible witness, a brief description of the method of identification and, if an identification credential is used, the date of issuance and expiration date of the credential; and
5. the fee, if any, charged by the notary.

One can may maintain a journal in both a tangible form and an electronic form. If you maintain a physical journal you can only have the one journal. If you maintain a digital journal it is allowable to maintain more than one journal.

This journal has to be maintained for 10 years after the last entry for retention purposes. The notary may transfer their journal to an approved repository for retention.

There are other changes that you can read on the informational file the Kansas Secretary of State has provided and it has links to other resources and forms that you will need in your function as a notary.

Thanks to Candis Hemel, Director of Cimarron City Library for forwarding this information to the System Office so I could include it in this Wrap-UP!.

2022 Summer Library Program Free Matter

The System office has received the Summer Library Program Free Matter (posters, bookmarks, and the like). There was some damaged items that we had to reorder. Many of you will receive your library’s order from System Staff that are coming to your library or it will come via the Courier in the coming weeks.

Penguin Random House Grants for Small & Rural Libraries

For those that might have missed this in the latest ARSL Newsletter I wanted to place it in the SWKLS Newsletter as well. This is a challenge grant so your application might not be chosen. However, you aren’t in the running unless you try. The wording says it can be used for anything to include programming. This might be able to help you with an upcoming program event at your library.

Through the generosity of Penguin Random House, we are please to announce the establishment of a new grant opportunity for small and rural libraries nationwide!

Not all applications will be selected for funding. If selected, grants will be awarded for up to $2,500.

This is a rolling grant application, with batches of applications going under review every 8 weeks beginning December 17, 2021.  Applications will be accepted until all available grant funds are distributed. Please visit our website for a list of grant application deadlines.

This program will award grants to libraries that demonstrate a true need. Grants are not limited to literacy and may be used for everything from library programming and books to resources like hotspots that help community members access important information. In-kind donations will also be considered.

Promotional Posters for Libraries

Amanda Harrison posted a link on the KASL ListServ about the company Alexandria posting free downloadable posters on their website. I went to the site and downloaded a file to try it out.

The posters are downloaded in a Zip File so you will need to extract the files to be able to print the poster. I did not get any type of information request from the company asking who was downloading the poster file. Check out what they have to offer at Alexandria’s Site. Below is a sample of one of the posters:
