3. TWO NEW RESOURCES FOR BADGERLINK
Resources for Libraries & Lifelong Learning (RL&LL) is happy to announce the addition of two new resources for BadgerLink -- LearningExpress Library and the Wisconsin Newspapers Digital Research Site. The addition of LearningExpress Library improves the ability of libraries throughout the state to help users identify new job possibilities and help them train to take tests to obtain jobs in this time of high unemployment. The other new resource comes from the Wisconsin Newspaper Association and provides critical access to the daily and weekly newspapers in Wisconsin. Both new resources should be available by the beginning of August 2010.
LearningExpress Library
Online practice tests, courses, and ebooks for people of all ages to improve test preparation and test-taking skills. Elementary, middle and high school students can practice math, reading, and writing skills improvement. High school students can also prepare for the ACT, SAT, Advanced Placement, PSAT and TOEFL, CLEP and other college placement exams. College students can work on math and reasoning skills, and reading, science, and writing skills improvement. Adults can practice for taking a wide variety of exams in health care, teaching, real estate, law enforcement and other fields as well as building skills in math, reading, writing, and U.S. citizenship. Each user can set up an individual account and receive instant feedback and diagnostic score reports so that they can identify strengths and weaknesses.
LearningExpress Library is funded for the first year through use of Library Services and Technology (LSTA) grant funds from the Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS). The Division for Libraries, Technology, and Community Learning hopes to obtain ongoing funding as a part of the BadgerLink program.
Wisconsin Newspapers Digital Research Site
The Resources for Libraries & Lifelong Learning team has worked with the Wisconsin Newspaper Association (WNA) to help fill the Wisconsin newspaper gap in BadgerLink. Through this new partnership, WNA's Wisconsin Newspapers Digital Research Site will provide access to its 235 daily and weekly member-newspapers. Newspaper content is available from April 2005 with a two month embargo period. Each addition is covered cover to cover in a PDF, searchable format.
This service is available onsite in libraries of all types (except for corporate libraries) and through entry of a library card number. It is not available statewide through IP address authentication as are other BadgerLink resources. Users will be able to access the WNA website through the BadgerLink website (http://www.badgerlink.net) by clicking on Newspapers under Resources by Type (http://www.badgerlink.net/papers.html).
The first year of access to the WNA newspaper database is being provided as a pilot project. The Division for Libraries, Technology, and Community Learning hopes to gain information on needs for Wisconsin newspaper access and to obtain ongoing funding as a part of the BadgerLink program.
Training for both of these new resources will be made available through the fall BadgerLunch series and through scheduled vendor training sessions. Watch for a complete webinar schedule soon!
For questions regarding either of these resources contact DPIbadgerli@dpi.wi.gov.
BadgerLink is a project of the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction (DPI), Division for Libraries, Technology, and Community Learning. Its goal is to provide access to quality online information resources for Wisconsin residents in cooperation with the state's public, school, academic, and special libraries. The project is funded through the Universal Service Fund with additional support provided by the Institute for Museum and Library Services.
4. ATTORNEY GENERAL ISSUES GUIDANCE ON NEW WISCONSIN SUPREME COURT E-MAIL DECISION
The Wisconsin Supreme Court recently decided in Schill v. Wisconsin Rapids School District that the Public Records Law (Wis. Stat. §§ 19.31-19.39) does not require the disclosure of the contents of purely personal e-mails sent or received on government e-mail accounts.
The Wisconsin Attorney General has issued a memo with guidance on compliance with the court's decision. That memo reads, in part:
In order to comply with the holding in Schill, a records custodian is responsible to screen e-mails that fall within the scope of a request in order to determine whether, in fact, the contents are purely personal and evince no violation of law or policy. If so, the e-mails need not be released. In making this judgment, however, records custodians should be mindful of the policy behind the Public Records Law. It is "the public policy of this state that all persons are entitled to the greatest possible information regarding the affairs of government and the official acts of those officers and employees who represent them." Wis. Stat. § 19.31. Therefore, the "purely personal e-mail" exception to disclosure should be narrowly applied. If there is any aspect of the e-mail that may shed light on governmental functions and responsibilities, the relevant content must be released as any other record would be released under the Public Records Law. If a document contains both personal and non-personal content, a records custodian may redact portions of the document so that the purely personal information is not released.
The full memo is at http://www.doj.state.wi.us/news/files/Memo_InterestedParties-Schill.pdf.
Questions concerning compliance with the Public Records Law may be directed to the Department of Justice's public records hotline at (608) 266-3952.
5. AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION FILES COMMENTS ON NET NEUTRALITY
Net Neutrality is the concept that there is no network configuration, or practice-outside of end user control-that discriminates against access to any lawful content on the Internet. In other words, the network is "neutral." There have been some instances in which at least one large, nationwide Internet provider blocked access to some content without their customers initially being aware of this action. In June the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) asked for comments on this issue from interested parties. Because the library community has long supported open access to information, the American Library Association (ALA) submitted comments to the FCC on July 15. The ALA comments state in part: "Libraries, and indeed all consumers, need to be assured that they will be able to access legitimate Internet content, or use Internet services or applications without fear or concerns that such access or use will be blocked or degraded by any entity with the means and control to do so." Bob Bocher, the DLTCL's Library Technology Consultant, is on the ALA Technology Office Advisory Committee and wrote the ALA comments, a complete copy of which are on the FCC website at: http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/document/view?id=7020543844. The ALA notice on this filing is at http://www.wo.ala.org/districtdispatch/?p=5161.
6. HELPING JOB SEEKERS: USING ELECTRONIC TOOLS AND FEDERAL RESOURCE
You are cordially invited to participate in a free webinar, Helping Job Seekers: Using Electronic Tools and Federal Resources. The US Department of Labor Employment and Training Administration will provide an overview of the public workforce system and present the electronic tools most helpful to library staff who assist unemployed workers.
Participants will also learn how to direct patrons to the right tools for their needs and to find local Workforce System partners. The presentation will include an online tour of the O*NET System (http://online.onetcenter.org), CareerOneStop.org (http://www.careeronestop.org), and America's Service Locator (http://www.servicelocator.org) as well as occupational crosswalks, job search and resume preparation, and state job banks and labor market information.
To register for the webinar that will take place August 11 from 1-2:30 p.m. CT, please go to http://evanced.info/webjunction/evanced/eventsignup.asp?ID=1661.
All webinars are posted on the WebJunction home page: http://www.webjunction.org.
7. NEW PSAs TO ENCOURAGE PARENTS TO READ WITH THEIR CHILDREN
The Advertising Council and the Library of Congress are launching a new series of public service advertisements (PSAs) to encourage parents to read with their children and inspire them to become lifelong learners.
Research conducted by Florida State University found that when parents become involved in their children's literacy practices, children improve in reading achievement, language comprehension, and expressive language skills. Additionally, an overall increase in parental involvement in their child's reading makes children more willing to read. When parents and children read together, it also increases the frequency of a child's reading.
The new PSAs feature the iconic children's literary character Curious George. The television, print, and outdoor advertisements feature George and his best friend and mentor, "The Man with the Yellow Hat," reading books together. These PSAs encourage parents to "Read to your child today and inspire a lifelong love of reading."
"There is no more important influence in instilling a lifelong love of reading in a child than his or her parent or caregiver," said Deanna Marcum, associate librarian for library services at the Library of Congress. "The Library of Congress is pleased to work with the Ad Council to champion such an important cause, which inspires curiosity and creativity in young people, who then grow up to become better informed and engaged citizens."
The new PSAs are launching to coincide with children's summer vacations. A study conducted by The Center for Evaluation, American Academy of Arts and Sciences, suggests that having elementary school students read four or five books during the summer can prevent the reading achievement losses that normally occur during those months.
The campaign, created in partnership with Universal Partnerships & Licensing and Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company encourages parents and kids to visit http://www.Read.gov as a source for discovery, learning, family fun, and to experience the joy of reading.
The "Curious George" effort is supplemental to an existing tween-targeted campaign originally launched in 2000 that aims to inspire young readers to become lifelong readers. The objective of the campaign is to inspire fun and promote literacy in all types of learning. From books to magazines to comics, and in all its other forms, reading gives kids an opportunity to explore their imaginations, and "Explore New Worlds."
The PSAs also direct tweens to a website that features the Library of Congress's serialized story, The Exquisite Corpse Adventure. The adventure is written by many well-known children's authors-some of which include Jon Scieszka and Kate DiCamillo, in the form of an "exquisite corpse." Each author tells part of the story for two weeks before the story is given to a different author. A new episode is published every two weeks for a year. Each episode also features the work of award-winning children's illustrators. Between episodes, kids are encouraged to play The Exquisite Corpse Brain Game where they are tested on what they have read in the past and predict what will happen in the future.
