This is the perfect opportunity to let the public know that we have the
materials they want. There is no better way to do so than with a
program. Since the movie was released every book on the Titanic in our
library has been checked out. They all have extremely long reserve
lists and we have ordered and added many more to the collection. I
personally loved the movie and will tell that to anyone who asks. I
don't see how having programs about a general subject endorses a
specific event such as you say.
I took full advantage of the Barney craze and went nuts with dinosaur
programs. Believe me when I tell you I DO NOT endorse Barney for small
children. I have very strong negative feelings about Barney, and I
actually believe he (and his show) does more damage to kids than good.
likewise for the Pocahontas rush. I do not approve professionally of
the changes Disney made, but it was a great opportunity to teach while
the kids were interested.

Just curious to know....what is wrong with the movie's language,
message, subject matter, etc.? I think it opens up many subjects for
discussion between kids and parents, but I don't see anything wrong with
the message. Are we really teaching kids that there is no such thing as
true love anymore? Or are you tallking about another message?

Subject: Re: Library in school
The public library I work at is housed in an elementary school. It also
happens to be the school library. We share the facility. Unfortunately, the
school has most of the control over who gets the library when. We, however,
own most of the collection. About 20 of our books to 1 of theirs. The
situation stinks, from my point of view. The public gets very angry about not
being able to use their library for much of the school week. We are also
frustrated because we do not have a programming room, so we are limited in the
times we have to present storytimes during the day, or moomy and me. I don't
know if this is what your looking for, but take it from someone who's there it
doesn't work. The school parents worry about security, and the public
complain about usage.
These opinions are mine alone.
Good Luck.

Subject: Summer playground programs
Dear fellow pubyacers
I am looking for new ideas/resources for summer playground programs. As
part of our library's outreach program, I visit 3 school playgrounds for a
25-35 minute storytime program, promoting library visits and our Summer
Reading Program. The ages of children range from Kindergarten to 6th
grade; the number attending varies from 3-25 (depending on the weather and
family vacation plans). I always read two stories, but I like to do other
activities that get the children involved. I find that the older students
are fond of participatory activities, and even shy children don't mind
holding a stick puppet.
Some of the ideas I used last summer were: an Eat-It-All Elaine puppet, The
Snow Queen With the Cold, Cold Heart, The Three Little Pigs and Little Red
Riding Hood with stick puppets, Jeremy Nickle, clothesline stories and
poetry by Silverstein and Prelutsky. I have used Baltuck's CRAZY
GIBBERISH, Jan Irving's books and Pellowski's STORYVINE for ideas.
I would appreciate any ideas you have for activities or resources and will
happy to share the results with all who request. Thank you.

Subject: Re: Crafts in the Public Library
Cindi,
I use crafts in about half of my library programs because:
* many children enjoy crafts
* having something to bring home is a reminder of the books we
read at the library and an opportunity to discuss them with
family.
I don't use crafts for half of my library programs because:
* preparing them is time consuming
* my primary focus is books, not crafts
* I don't want the children to expect a craft each week only to
be disappointed if I haven't been able to plan one.
* crafts take time that could be used for other, more social,
activities such as games, music and dancing, etc.
* some children actually dislike crafts
I generally alternate craft and non-craft weeks and find that the
variety of activities is more interesting for me and for my patrons.

ubject: Karen and filters
I find this kinda funny. I have read articles by Karen where she took
a much more gentle stance toward filters (see recent issues of VOYA,
for instance) than I would have. Karen tends to be a bit kinder to the
censors than I. Perhaps since she is giving you and I different
signals means she is taking a balanced approach, notwithstanding your
not-too-kind broadside.
My hunch is that her participation in the brief has to do with
providing information as opposed to coming down on one side or the
other.

Subject: Summer Reading Club
Greetings!
I have had a request by our local New Hampshire Reads -Americorps program
to find a way to let them take our reading club out into the field (so to
speak). I'm at a loss to think of a way since so much of how we have the
program structured depends on library visits.
We use a contract based system with kids earning a variety of incentives
for either library visits, books read or contracts reached.
We don't require any kind of proof for books read - just writing them
down is enough.
Has anyone created some kind of out-of-site reading club? How do you
monitor it? How do the kids get what they have earned?
I'd be happy to post to the list if anyone is interested!
Thanks!

ubject: Videos
We have recently had the question come up to the appropriateness of including
videos in our collection. We are currently facing a severe lack of space and
the community has not been willing to fund an expansion to the building. One
of the suggestions to provide more space is to eliminate the video
collection. Arguments have been that children watch enough TV and that
libraries do not need to or should not encourage more TV viewing. Another
argument has been that we are competing agains local video stores. Our
director responded with the explanation that videos are another form of
information and that we include in our collection many educational titles
that are not available at your local video store. The question may have been
softened to maybe we should then at least get rid of our feature films. We
have a large collection of feature films both for children and for adults.
They are heavily used by our patrons and would be terribly missed. I have
done a preliminary search on SearchBank and I am still sifting through the
results. Mostly I am finding things on recommended lists and arguments about
how videos are selected. This question may or may not be discussed at our
next board meeting. I need some help to back up our arguments that
videos are an important piece of our collection. Of course I am open to
hearing arguments on the other side as well. Thanks in advance for your
input. Please respond directly to me unless you feel that this would be
of general interest to the list.

We do not do craft activities at story hours for several reasons. The
primary one is that we have no space. Story hours are held on the floor in
the picture book area and table space is less than the number of children
attending the programs. Secondly, we do not have enough staff to assemble
the craft activities and then help the children with it. We have done a few
crafts which were sponsored by local groups who came to the story hours with
the craft prepared and then helped the children.

Subject: stroytime room compilation
Compilation of posts responding to my storytime room query:
Thank you, everyone! Y
all are the best!
Torrie Hodgson- muted, impressionistic grove of trees, maybe
evergreens.
Jenny Collier- Bright primary colors, velcro wall strips, cabinets/
countertops, puppet stage, and NO STAIRS!
Anne Paradise- happy medium with colors, the "visual equivalent
of white noise", try pinkish colors for soothing effect- it worked
for her.
Jane Whiteside- story illustrations in bold bright colors.
Janice Del Negro- saw a beautiful mural in Raleigh, NC, that was a
montage of scenes from classic children
s lit., once again
sort of forest-y.
Peg Becksvoort- calm, quiet, and welcoming
Corey Bennett- NO LOFT! NO SPIRAL STAIRCASE!
Use the K.I.S.S. concept (keep it simple, silly).
Lisa Smith- not sterile, but not overwhelmingly busy. Soothing
and understated.
Nancy Evans- dreamy, hazy colors, clouds, stars, trees, but not busy.
Dorothy Holland- restful, relaxing, not distracting from the stories
and books.
Jonathan Betz-Zall- local feeling, wall behind storyteller blank,
but used suspended fabric sculpture w/ seashore feel.
You see? Great minds really do think alike! The majority feeling
seems to be for something upbeat but calm and not intrusive.
Themes from nature and children
s lit could be incorporated without
being visually over-stimulating. I agree that kids get plenty of stimulation
and often need help to calm down. How nice it would be to get some
subliminal help from the environment!
The answers also show a few things, which were not unexpected
but make me SO happy and proud to see! These are an overwhelming
understanding and respect for children and their needs, and respect
for the books, stories, and very real "work" of the storyteller. Yay!
This
is just the validation I was looking for to help redirect the current effort.
(The current design proposal looks like a set from the movie
"Beetlejuice"! Yikes!! Fortunately, my Director and the Foundation are
not real nuts about it either.) I
ll let y
all know how it goes. I
m counting
on truth and beauty and plain old professional know-how to win.
On the bright side, we know that will have a puppet stage (that we
helped design) that is WAY cool, and we
ll also have a wall of counters
and cabinets w/ a sink. Part of the floor near the puppet stage/
storytelling spot will be carpet and the other part will be tile for
messier activities. (Ms. Donna loves her glitter and we all love glue!)

Subject: RE: Titanic song
Ok, Ok, you convinced me. I know exactly which song he was referring to,
and I will be glad to share it. (I only wish I could sing it for you--I
just loved camp songs...)
Oh, they built the ship Titanic
To sail the ocean blue,
And they thought they had a ship
That the water would never go through,
But the good Lord raised His hand,
Said the ship would never land,
It was sad when the great ship went down.
REFRAIN: Oh, it was sad (so sad)
So sad (so sad)
It was sad when the great ship
Went down to the bottom of the
Sea-ea-ea-ea (Husbands and wives, many Boy scouts lost their
lives)
IT WAS SAD WHEN THE GREAT SHIP WENT DOWN.
They were nearing Iceland's shore
When the rain began to pour
And the rich refused to associate
With the poor
So they put them down below
Where they'd be the first to go,
It was sad when the great ship went down.
(REFRAIN)
Oh, they put the lifeboats out
On the dark and stormy sea
And the band struck up with
"Nearer My God to Thee"
Oh, the captain tried to wire,
But the wires were all on fire,
It was sad when the great ship went down.
(REFRAIN)
Oh, the moral of this story
As you can plainly see
Is to wear a life preserver
When you go out to sea,
The Titanic never made it,
And never more shall be,
It was sad when the great ship went down.
(REFRAIN)
Ker---plop!
Now, when you sing this song, the chorus takes two groups of people, one
singing the parts outside the parentheses, one saying/singing the parts in
the parentheses, and then everyone singing (in two-part harmony where that
could be managed) on the last line. We had some camp lore at the camp
where I learned this that you never sang this song unless you wanted it to
rain, because we jokingly had a rule that the singing of this song is what
made it rain. (When we had especially dry summers, we sang it a lot so as
not lose our ability to have campfires.)
I was amazed about how much I already knew about the Titanic just from
singing this song as a kid.
There are probably other versions of it, because camp songs tend to have
lives of their own as they travel from place to place. Hope this helps.

Subject: Musical booktalks
A few weeks ago, I posted a reply to a question on booktalking
where I mentioned that I often incorporated music into my presentations.
I have since had a few people ask how it worked in practice and I
thought perhaps I ought to post my answer to the list.
Whether or not I choose to play a song in whole or in part depends
on what I am trying to do: set the stage or create a mood throughout. I
rehearse everything very carefully and if anything happens within the
booktalk to throw off the schedule (questions and comments from the
audience, announcements over the intercom, etc.) I cut the tape and
sometimes never get back to it.
If I'm doing historical fiction I will sometimes try to find
something from the era.
I started doing this last year when we had a science-fiction-y
summer reading theme and I thought it would be great to begin with music
from Star Wars and Star Trek. It went from there.
I had at first been worried about the tape being a distraction
from the talk, but I have found that it is not a problem. The big
difficulty is keeping MYSELF from being distracted.
This is not an idea for everybody, but I have found it works for
me.

Polar the Titanic Bear by Daisy Corning Stone Spedden
The Titanic, Lost --and Found by Judy Donnelly
Titanic by Frank Sloan.
We didn't focus our booktalks on the movie at all, rather factual accounts and
information. I think kids feel more comfortable talking out subjects like
that. Many, in fact most had seen the movie and it gave an excellent
opportunity for them to discuss their thoughts and feelings. Most of our
Titanic stuff has holds on it for weeks. We think it is great that there is
that much follow up reading going on!!!
