30 Sep '21

<https://www.icpsr.umich.edu/web/pages/HMCA/index.html> Join us on October 12 at 2:00 pm EDT for a *free* webinar! The webinar is hosted by the Health and Medical Care Archive (HMCA) at the Inter-university Consortium for Political and Social Research (ICPSR), a data repository funded by the Robert Woods Johnson Foundation (RWJF). Please join us in “*Examining the Health Reform Monitoring Survey and the Well-Being and Basic Needs Survey Presented by the Urban Institute*” featuring Stephan Zuckerman and Michael Karpman with the Urban Institute. Participants will get an overview of the Health Reform Monitoring Survey and the Well-Being and Basic Needs Survey, learn about key findings from the latest data, and discover ways these studies can be used in health research. Finally, participants will learn about the resources available on the RWJF and HMCA websites and have the opportunity to ask questions. Register for the Webinar <https://myumi.ch/YyEe2> *About the Principal Investigators: * Stephen Zuckerman is a senior fellow and vice president for health policy at the Urban Institute. He has studied health economics and health policy for 30 years and is a national expert on Medicare and Medicaid physician payment, including how payments affect enrollee access to care and the volume of services they receive. He is currently examining how payment and delivery system reforms can affect the availability of primary care services and studying the implementation and impact of the Affordable Care Act. Zuckerman has published extensively on many topics, including the determinants of geographic differences in Medicare spending, Medicaid managed care, state coverage expansions for adults, changes in Medicare benefit design that could protect the most vulnerable beneficiaries, hospital rate setting, and the impact of undocumented immigrants on the US health care system. Other issues he has worked on include Medicaid financing arrangements used by states, crowd-out of private coverage by SCHIP, the health care safety net, and survey approaches for measuring insurance coverage. Zuckerman also codirected the development of the Geographic Practice Cost Indices used in the Medicare physician fee schedule. Michael Karpman is a senior research associate in the Health Policy Center at the Urban Institute. His work focuses on the implications of the Affordable Care Act, including quantitative analysis related to health insurance coverage, access to and affordability of health care, use of health care services, and health status. This work includes efforts to help coordinate and analyze data from the Urban Institute’s Health Reform Monitoring Survey.

[https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/2217e463-b80b-eb…] The Stable at Unbridled Thoroughbred Foundation<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.susank…> offers a place of belonging and community to people of all ages. The gentleness of our rescued horses juxtaposed to that of their suffering awakens a curiosity and consideration about what society is doing with horses -- and why. Tails and Tales provided Unbridled with a well-timed opportunity to expand its horse-centric literacy program Read To The Rescues. As news of the program spread to libraries throughout NY state, readers responded enthusiastically, and the stable had the privilege of welcoming many new young people to experience the wonder of reading to a rescued horse. Susan Kayne reports that 15 new and repeat readers were welcomed each Saturday and Sunday. She also noted that one of the most pleasant surprises was to hear young people reading in Spanish to the horses from a book written in English! [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/_compresseds/25cf57b3-a…] As the summer unfolded, young people who initially arrived at the behest of parents, fell so in love with reading to the horses that they came back week-after-week with stacks of books in tow. What began as a quick trip to read a few pages, developed into repeat visits with young people, siblings, parents, and grandparents -- all of whom read for hours. They read together, to themselves, quietly and aloud. They embraced new concepts and gained conversational skills and greater confidence to carry with them into their world. Why horses? Horses are honest in their relationships. They are present, they don’t judge, they don’t blame, and they won’t tell your secrets. When young people read to a horse, the horse leans in to listen, gleans a kind eye, and offers an expression that beckons the reader for more. Over the course of a reading session, we have observed the most shy reader who can barely utter a whisper, become an animated storyteller in the presence of our horses. In the most vulnerable moments of reading, horses are friends who are accepting, genuine, and empathetic. [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/0175c5f8-7f90-13…] At the end of each Read To The Rescues session, readers’ reflected on their experience and received a laminated Certificate acknowledging the book they read from, how they thought the horse felt during reading, and how they felt while reading to the horse of their choice. The popularity and impact of Read To The Rescues resulted in a feature story on Spectrum News<https://gcc02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fspectruml…> and a special mention in a Proclamation issued to Unbridled Thoroughbred Foundation by NY State Senator Joseph Addabbo. The State Library hopes to continue this great partnership going forward so more kids and families can experience the pure joy of reading to a rescued horse. Backyard Habitats & Blobfish Slime! The Florida Bureau of Braille and Talking Book Library offers a virtual summer reading program for patrons across the state. Brothers Keith and Shawn enjoy family activities--from backyard habitats and vegetarian cooking to making slime! Their other spotlight reader was Luke, who can be seen with his brother, with the Blobfish Slime! [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/92fea33a-1cc1-5d…] [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/66bfb85e-4bb9-05…] Librarian Maureen Dorosinski was also able to expand their adult offerings this year as well. They received great book reviews, and are keeping the curated lists for kids and adults available in the Reading Room section of their website all year long. [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/9c17eaba-fea5-de…] Amazing Displays! Heather Chalmers of the Flagler County Public Library, FL, sent in photos of their gorgeous displays from this summer. Both of the ideas came from Pinterst. The waterfall was made by stacking similar sized cardboard boxes on top of one another, taped together, and then the front was covered with blue butcher paper. They then attached long brown pieces of paper along the sides and kind of formed them into “rocks” and balled up brown paper at the bottom to outline the water. For the water they used white Christmas lights and draped blue tulle over them from the top. The flowers and monkeys were cut on a Cricut machine. They had so much fun decorating this summer and received a ton of compliments. [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/89fdcb4f-6465-31…] [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/_compresseds/ea437807-2…] Wild Wednesday at Waterworks Here are some photos from the Indiana Free Library, Indiana, PA Wild Wednesday outdoor program from this past summer. The photos were submitted by librarian Valetta Shuppe. The library had a different theme each week and invited speakers to give presentations from the PA Fish and Boat Commission, Penn State Master Gardeners, Friends of the Parks, PA State Parks, and more. They had a great summer and will be repeating the Wild Wednesday's program for 2022!

The purpose of this survey is to gauge the usefulness of the materials provided for the previous summer. The results are used to help in developing future programs. One of the survey questions asks participants for ideas for future summer programs. In answering the 2020 Survey, libraries had the opportunity to share ideas for the upcoming “Oceans of Possibilities” program. Perhaps you may be thinking like one participant: “Oceanography is really limiting as a topic. I'm not sure if we will elect to use the CSLP themes and items that year.” This is why CSLP creates its annual manual chock-full of great ideas. Here are some stellar ideas fellow librarians shared when they answered the 2020 Survey. Around 25% of respondents shared one or more ideas. Naturally, most were STEM heavy. Of the 242 respondents, more than 60 mentioned focusing programming on different environmental concerns, such as the plastic and trash problem in the ocean, endangered animals due to climate change, and how to clean up oil spills. More than 20 recommended virtual visits of, collaboration with or hands-on exhibits at the library of local aquariums. Noting the difference between freshwater and saltwater and programming based around the most local body of water to your library (be it oceans, lakes, and/or rivers) would fit in perfectly. Most popular crafts ideas included making a bottle ocean or a wave, making a model of an aquarium or the ocean floor, and of course, different sea creatures, including starfishes, crabs, or jellyfish. Naturally, the one animal that got the most spotlight was the shark! Close to 25 respondents mentioned doing a shark week. Mermaids, beach/sand, shipwrecks, and pirates with treasure hunts were other repeated themes. Sometimes sticking to a theme can be difficult for programming, especially for teens and adults. One participant confessed, “Quite often the themes are not conducive to teen programming. Any teen programming would need to be heavy on the technology side.” But a few different librarians shared ideas for some non-techy ideas: Go Fish Tournament or a Human Battleship Game. And even though pirates may not be mature enough for teens and adults, you can’t have a treasure hunt without a map; cartography was another notable idea that some respondents mentioned and would make an interesting adult program. No matter what age group you are responsible for, CSLP is here to help you get the programming juices flowing. Thank you all for answering the annual survey and giving your whole community ideas to tackle all the possibilities for this upcoming summer. We hope the 2022 manual will help you with your 2022 summer! Haunted Library: A Halloween Tradition by Michelle Johnson, Library Director, Hammond Community Library, WI For over ten years the Hammond Community Library has offered families a kid-friendly Halloween event by transforming the library into a non-scary Halloween experience. It started small and has only grown in popularity and in size. [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/d495f068-00c9-c6…] My husband's favorite holiday is Halloween and he loves a good Halloween experience. However, most Halloween experiences are scary and not family oriented. That is when the idea of hosting a Haunted Library came to be...I mentioned this to my husband and he agreed to help me with hosting an experience that our families in the community and surrounding communities could enjoy with their kids that embraced the Halloween spirit. [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/7db93b72-be02-75…] The running joke between my husband and myself is that if I can walk through, a child can walk through, and feel brave and enjoy a Halloween event built just for families. This event has become a community tradition and families look forward to this event each year, to see what is new and see old favorites (Spitfire--our pet dragon--who has made an appearance each year). [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/e228b774-5811-ec…] Comments we often hear are "I can't believe this is the library!" and from kids "Where did all the books go?". [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/9e90a88e-2b36-4e…] [https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/c924e6fa-9325-89…] What is on the horizon for CSLP? 2022: Theme/Oceanography; Slogan/"Oceans of Possibilities" Artist/Sophie Blackall 2023: Theme/Kindness and Friendship; Slogan/"All Together Now"; Artist/Frank Morrison 2024: Theme/Adventure; Slogan/"Adventure Begins at Your Library"; Artist/Juana Martinez-Neal 2025: Theme/Art; Slogan/TBD; Artist/TBD Was this forwarded to you?
