MeL Minute: Resources for Educators & Parents Working with Students Receiving Special Education Services
by Ann Kaskinen 20 Oct '22

20 Oct '22

[cid:image003.png@01D8E460.89F46C00]According to the National Center for Education Statistics<https://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d21/tables/dt21_204.40.asp>, in the 2020-21 school year 7,182,916 children (ages 3 to 21) enrolled in public schools received special education services. With a new school year upon us and parent-teacher conferences just around the corner, it is important to have resources at the ready to support our patrons as they seek to better serve this population. Parents Family Matters<https://www.michigan.gov/mde/Services/special-education/parent-resources/fa…>, a special outreach program through the Michigan Department of Education, provides parents and families with information about special education laws, rules, services, and practices. Easy-to-understand documents are provided in English, Arabic, and Spanish that detail items such as Accommodations, Educational Evaluation, and Placement. The Michigan eLibrary<https://mel.org/welcome> (MeL) offers the 2022 editions of Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities: Health & Wellness<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…> and Intellectual & Developmental Disabilities: Supportive Health & Wellness<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…> through the Consumer Health Complete<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customerspecific/mel/auth.php?database=e…> eResource. These texts identify ways to care for and support specific intellectual or developmental disabilities such as activities for a child with Rett Syndrome<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…>. There are also a handful of publications such as Exceptional Parent<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…> in the MeL eResources that can offer information on practical experiences in handling the everyday challenges of children with special needs. Educators Education Source<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customerspecific/mel/auth.php?database=e…> is one of the most comprehensive eResources available in MeL that supports educators in all grade levels and disciplines. While the database can be utilized to search for specific special education topics, professional journals such as Behavior Disorders<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…>, Language, Speech & Hearing Services in Schools<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…>, and Research & Practice for Persons with Severe Disabilities<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…> can be searched directly and offer educators cutting-edge information on issues and studies in the special education field. Additionally, many education-focused publications, such as Phi Delta Kappan<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…> feature special education subject matter, conversations, and histories, like the March 2022 issue<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…> has done. There are also a wide range of titles on special education topics available in the eBook Academic Collection<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customerspecific/mel/auth.php?database=e…> of MeL. With titles that focus on strategies working with preschoolers<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…> to more specific subjects like those that speak to Autism<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customlink/proxify/proxify.php?count=1&e…>, MeL has hundreds of eBooks on the many different veins of special education.

Program Recommendation
by Brannon McCullough 20 Oct '22

20 Oct '22

Hi everyone! Our library hosted Amberrose Hammond last night to a fully packed house, and she did not disappoint. I held our conference room door open so people could exit, and a patron jokingly asked if we provided escorts to their cars (at least I think they were joking). There were just as many gasps as there were laughs, and it made for an amazing spooky season program. I highly recommend her as a presenter. You can reach her at this website: https://mysteriousmichigan.com/ Please contact me if you have any questions! -- Brannon McCullough (he/him) Adult Services Librarian Commerce Township Community Library 180 E.

Program Recommendation: Tammie Rain Hayes
by Natalie Nowak 19 Oct '22

19 Oct '22

Good afternoon all, I know you've seen Tammie's name floating around on Michlib-l recently, and for good reason. Bayliss Library hosted her last night for a sound healing and she spent about two hours here with us. One whole hour was hearing the sounds of her instruments and the other was dedicated to talking about our experiences and her giving us lots of great information about the instruments, her travels, her background, etc. I was very impressed with her program, and I think that this was very beneficial for those who attended. The things that stood out most to be were how easy Tammie was to work with before the program, how kindly and respectfully she treated our patrons, and the quality of the program itself. Although there were others in the room, I have to say that this felt like a one-on-one therapeutic session; she gave personalized attention to each person and everyone was respectful of each other's space and silence. I would highly recommend Tammie to visit your library to give your community a "taste" of an experience they may have never had access to. Even now, it can be difficult for some to reach the treatment that they want due to location or price - providing this program at no cost or low cost to the public can really reach people who need it, and I can say with certainty that everyone who attends will be very thankful for it! If you have any questions about how our program went, let me know. Otherwise, you can contact Tammie at hayesartstudio(a)gmail.com.
