The Ultimate Duo! School and Public Library Partnerships Lacie Griffin- LMS Raytown Central Middle School Jessica Ford- Mid-Continent Public Library- Red Bridge Branch

How to Get Started Contact your Public Library/School Librarians\ – Pick your method of communication – Phone – In-Person Meetings September is Library Card Signup Month – This is a good first step into schools Create displays and signage to use in both libraries

Create a Presence at the School Open House Nights Database Presentations Parent/Teacher Conferences Teachers Assistance Programs Academic Fairs Career Days Monthly Classes

Raytown Central / MCPL Raytown Branch Goals for working together – Increase teen involvement in the Public Library – Increase awareness of teen programs – Use each other as sounding boards – Increase use of Research Databases

Programs We Have Had Bookmark Contest for Teen Read Week Reading Club/Book Clubs – Gifted Kids Vampire Program Free Practice ACT/SAT tests

Benefits for Both Teachers Assistance Program Displays that advertise mutual events and signage Attentive audiences More reluctant readers interested in reading More challenges for Gifted readers Shared workload

Bookmark Contest for Teen Read Week Had students design bookmarks based off of the theme for teen read week. Advertised in Both School and Public Library’s Winners were chosen by a panel of teachers and library staff Winning bookmark was handed out at both libraries Top three winning bookmarks were blown up and displayed

Book Club/Reading Clubs Meet once a month at alternating location Pick current books based on student interest Have stations at book clubs 15 minute activities Hit multiple learning style Good for younger readers (13-15) Activities related directly to book Time period, trivia games, websites… Online discussion board Throughout the month students can sign in and post thoughts on the title

Vampire Program Based on Vladimir Tod YA series Contacted author who sent promotional items for students Possibility of having direct contact with author through chat or webcam Field trip to public library to have special teen programing Spray painting hair Write your name in Vampiric language Prove/Disprove the existence of vampires Raffle for YA vampire books

Free Practice ACT/SAT Tests Multiple online databases have free practice tests that can be accessed from home or school MCPL is currently working with Kaplan Test Prep to provide free ACT and SAT tests to multiple branches throughout the system Mumblings of school’s being funded based on ACT scores received by students

Research Databases Try to prevent overlap of expensive databases This can save the school lots of money and allow them better pick their resources Database Presentations are a requirement for most Public Libraries MOREnet has lost funding and schools in the next few years may not have any of their own Being able to research through online databases is a grade level requirement for Missouri

Ways to Encourage Cooperation PTA meetings Faculty Meetings Open House Class Visits Read for the Record School Programs – Supplement or man a table Parent-Teacher Conf. Bookmarks in School Library

Schools- State Standards The New GLE’s (Grade Level Expectations) and CLE’s (Course Level Expectations) from DESE:
