What is included in "What is Library Service"? It sounds like an the title of an interesting workshop.
"What is Library Service Day 1 and Day 2" are 10 contact hours of workshops that cover the theory and philosophy of librarianship. It is required for MN Voluntary Certification.
Day 1 covers Standards for MN Public Libraries, Regional and Multitype Library Systems in MN. Funding, the difference between Standards, Guidelines and Policies, Libraries of Yesterday and today, the Community Profile.
The homework that must be done before attending Day 2 covers Cover valus of librarianship, standards, maintenance of effort in MN, comparing your library to another library, ADA, library policies, mission, the Newbery Medal, interagency cooperation, MN Statutes expecially chapter 134, ALA's Code of Ethics and Freedom to Read, the Community profile, and keeping a Learning Jounal.
OOps- typo about the homework. It covers core values, not "Cover values".
The topics for Day 2 include the homework topics and the Patriot Act.
I am not sure when the next What is Library Service Day 1 will be offered.
The next MN Voluntary Certification Workshop on "Selling your Library around Town" will be in September and October, 2006. See the MN Voluntary Certification Program Calendar for the dates and locations of the workshop and the registration information.
