    Episode 63 Charles Guarria – Proposition 13 Jun 08, 2019
    Show notes

    Charles Guarria is a professor at Long Island University’s Brooklyn Campus. Charles has a had a varied career that took him to Lehman Brothers and Long Island University’s Acquisition Department. Charles started writing a research piece on California’s Proposition 13 from the 1970’s. Why is this so relevant in the 21st Century? This proposition severely restricted funding to public institutions including libraries and it is still “on the books” today and has acted as a model for other states to follow. Join us for this fascinating discussion which seems to be a model for New York State’s Property Tax Cap that is currently in effect.

    Show notes

    Here in Part 2, we continue the conversation with Dr. Lambert Shell, Stacey Smith-Brown, Kaysha Watson-Phillips, Carol Gilliam, Michelle Samuel, Salamah Mullen and my “on the spot” co-host for the day Syntychia Kendrick-Samuel.

    We continue the conversation about being a librarian of color here on Long Island. Much of the conversation will resinate no matter where you are from. The panel discusses the struggle to bring people of color into the profession, feelings of isolation at conferences, the perception of a person of color as a professional and the frustrations that accompany being a person of color in “Libraryland”. This having this discussion, we hope it moves you as much as it moved me speaking with this learned panel. The one thing that resinates, is our panel’s passion for what they do in spite of the adversities that they face and boy does this group love to laugh. .

    Episode 61 – The Henrietta Public Library – Branding your Library Apr 22, 2019
    Show notes

    Assistant Director Jen Barth and Children’s Librarian Laura Lintz are from the Henrietta Public Library in Henrietta, New York (just south of Rochester). Jen and Laura joined us via Google Hangouts and although we were having some WiFi issues on both ends, we had a great time talking about how libraries can brand themselves and how to push out the message in the branding via social media. They also talked about some older methods of getting the word out that may be outmoded. We learn about some of their inspirations including Debbie Milman and Simon Sinek. But the best part is that we laughed and had a great time learning about Laura’s excellent vocabulary!!

    Show notes

    Here is Suffolk County, New York, we have the Suffolk Cooperative Libray System which provides many services for the member libraries of the county. We were fortunate enough to have Derek Ivie and Darla Salva Cruz visit the podcast. Derek & Darla, as they are more affectionately known, provide services to children and teen departments for libraries of Suffolk. One of the biggest events that they coordinate is Battle of the Books which is an amazing competition centered around a group of books. Member libraries assemble groups of teams to read and study the books and a huge countywide “BATTLE” ensues! We also talk about Derek & Darla’s work with YALSA and their Teen Bookfinder App, Equity Diversity and Inclusion, ALSC’s Odyssey Award, Audie Awards and the Walter D. Myers Award. We also talked about what The Sachem Public Library looked like back in “The Day”. So listen to these “Super Heroes” talk Teen and Children’s services support! (AND don’t forget about the bananas and peanut butter!)
