Program Recommendation: Irene Miller
by Analiese Mattson 09 May '22

09 May '22

Ransom District Library hosted Holocaust survivor, author, and educator Irene Miller last week and I would like to recommend her. She was extremely inspiring and engaging as she spoke about her and her family's experience escaping Poland during the Holocaust. We had an excellent turnout to hear her speak and we were honored to have the opportunity to share her story with so many community members. Her contact information is on her website: http://www.irenemillerspeaker.com/ Analiese Mattson Head of Patron Services Ransom District Library 180 S. Sherwood Ave. Plainwell, MI 49080 (269) 685-8024 www.ransomlibrary.org -- This message has been scanned by E.F.A. Project and is believed to be clean.

Detroit Public Library continues our partnership with the League of Women Voters Detroit in a program addressing communicating ideas using deep canvassing. This is not just for political activists, but for anyone who wants to establish communication with others despite fundamental disagreements. Persuasion in this case is not convincing others that you are right, but opening lines of communication to permit dialogue. Tuesday, May 10, 2022 6:00-7:30 p.m. Please register: https://dpl-deep-canvassing.eventbrite.com [https://img.evbuc.com/https%3A%2F%2Fcdn.evbuc.com%2Fimages%2F268412109%2F13…]<https://dpl-deep-canvassing.eventbrite.com/> Connecting and Inspiring Voters Through Deep Canvassing Tickets, Tue, May 10, 2022 at 6:00 PM | Eventbrite<https://dpl-deep-canvassing.eventbrite.com/> Eventbrite - Detroit Public Library presents Connecting and Inspiring Voters Through Deep Canvassing - Tuesday, May 10, 2022 - Find event and ticket information. dpl-deep-canvassing.eventbrite.com We routinely use the automatic transcript to improve access.

Ready Access: Reentry Services for Decarcerated Populations at your Library<https://infopeople.org/civicrm/event/info?id=1039&reset=1> Presented by: Akiliah Manuel Mills, Lara Mayelian & Allyson Jeffredo Thursday, May 26 @noon Pacific time/3:00 PM ET Data shows that once an incarcerated person is released from an institution, the rates of recidivism dramatically decrease if they receive support. Public libraries are uniquely situated to provide decarcerated individuals a wide range of supports because they are already providing these services to the community. In this webinar the presenters will demonstrate a web-based toolkit<https://www.reentryservice.org/> that includes multi-layered mapping, a reading list, an introduction to initiating partnerships with governmental and nongovernmental agencies and tips for creating programming for decarcerated individuals. At the end of this one-hour webinar, participants will be able to: * Locate a carceral institution near your library * Initiate partnerships using the Ready Access partnership workflow and templates * Market already-existing programming or create new programming using the Ready Access programming workflow * Expand collections and professional development with materials related to incarceration This webinar will be of interest to: Public libraries: literacy, programming, adult, and youth services staff. For more information and to register for this free webinar: https://infopeople.org/civicrm/event/info?id=1039&reset=1 This webinar is sponsored by California Libraries Learn (CALL).
