<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif;color:windowtext">Good September morning Youth Services staff!<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif;color:windowtext">I hope you all enjoyed Labor Day! Below is the latest CSLP newsletter and this is a biggie- it has screenshots of what the new manual for 2020 looks like! I’ve seen it and as
someone who always thought the previous manual was too bulky and intimidating and therefore didn’t use it much, I think the new format is going to be so much more useful! The Manual committee has spent a lot of time working on this new format and I truly hope
you al find it more user friendly! Please let me know what you all think when you receive your manuals (which should be sometime next month, I think).
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif;color:windowtext"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif;color:windowtext">The new Shop CSLP website has also gone live today
</span><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif"><a href="https://www.cslpreads.org/cslp-store/">https://www.cslpreads.org/cslp-store/</a></span><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif;color:windowtext">! From now on, all Summer Reading purchases will
be made directly through CSLP and not Demco (like previous years). I’m not quite sure how the voucher system will work this year, we’re still figuring out that system but as soon as I know so will you! I recommend taking a look around- looking at the new artwork
and figuring out what you’d like to purchase! You should have a pretty good idea of what your voucher will allow your purchase (promotional and programmable items) and I’m hoping that we can get our state order in even earlier this year so if you start thinking
now you’ll know when the time comes! <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif;color:windowtext"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif;color:windowtext">In previous years, after the survey deadline closes in August, I spent September and October doing the data entry of around a thousand surveys before I know who has the most
surveys and will receive the extra voucher but because you all did that part this year I ran all the stats this morning and have our statewide results already!

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-family:"Calisto MT",serif;color:windowtext">I have more stats but I’ll put those on our website later today and will start work on the libraries that wanted their parent surveys sent to them so if you’ve already requested
that from me, if I asked you to remind me in September now is the time for that reminder and if you’ve done so in the past week or so, I have you down on a list already.

volunteers, graphic designers, and State Youth Consultants, the 2020 manual has a brand new look and structure.<br>
<br>
As well as a brand new layout, the 2020 manual has a renewed focus on sharing "adaptation ideas". These ideas are designed to help inspire you to look at programming through a wider lens, and provides you with the tools you need to help shape your summer programming
to meet the needs of your individual patrons and community.<br>

<br>
The print manual is arranged into six thematic chapters, and contains ideas for children, teens, adults, and multigenerational programs. However, your DVDs and USBs do contain the programming ideas arranged by age group, so you still can access all the age
specific ideas at a glance.<br>
<br>
Early Literacy has seen an overhaul as well. This year you will find five thematic ideas containing a wealth of songs, activities, and tips for a successful summer.<br>
</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><img border="0" width="50%" id="_x0000_i1034" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/ee802f89-46c4-4cce-8f3c-199f533bfaa2.jpg" alt="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/ee802f89-46c4-4cce-8f3c-199f533bfaa2.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br>
The 2020 manual marks a significant change from our previous layout. Your feedback is welcome, and while we did our best for 2020, with your help, 2021 will be even better!<br>
<br>
Speaking of 2021, there is still plenty of time to submit a program idea for consideration for "Tails and Tales"!<br>

<br>
About seven or eight years ago, I picked up a copy of </span><em><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">School Library Journal</span></em><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">
and read about California’s amazing public library summer lunch program. I immediately knew I wanted to start a program like that at the Palmer Library. For years, kids and teens would spend all day in the library during the summer eating junk food or nothing
at all. Moreover, I knew from talking with the parents and grandparents in our community that they could use some help during the summer months. Unfortunately, we were short-staffed, I had just taken over as head of the Youth Services Department, and our Young
Adult librarian had just left. I kept the idea in the back of my mind, waiting until the time was right.<br>
<br>
A few years later, with the Youth Services Staff positions filled, I reached out to someone at the Massachusetts Department of Childhood Services to find out how to start a summer lunch program. They quickly put me in contact with Project Bread and CNOP (Childhood
Nutrition Outreach Program). They helped me team-up with the wonderful Food Services Staff of the school system in the next town over in Monson. They were running a summer lunch site through the extension of the Free and Reduced Lunch Program through the USDA
at their elementary school and without hesitation agreed to make food for us too.<br>
<br>
Our first summer, we served lunch twice a week for six weeks, and we were averaging about 30-40 meals a day. It quickly became evident that we needed to expand, and for the past three years, we have been running the lunch program from Monday-Thursday. The feedback
has been nothing but positive, and families, kids, teens, and caregivers are grateful. The biggest surprise was how easy it was on our end. The Food Services team in Monson puts it all together for us, we transport it and hand it out! Word got out quickly
about the program, thanks to a billboard put up by Project Bread in the center of town. We got calls from local churches and service organizations asking how they could help. With a combination of staff and volunteers, we have handed out over 2,450 meals to
kids and teens in our area! A year ago I was hired as director, and it is my mission to continue this program, grow it, and to find new ways to bring materials, programs, food, and fun to our community!

<br>
The Middletown branch of the MidPointe Library System is in our fourth year of participating in the Summer Food Service Program. During this time, we have made a handful of adjustments to better serve our youth, ranging from adjusting serving times, Sponsors
that best fit our needs, and adding additional meals.<br>
<br>
When we started our SFSP journey in 2016, we were approached by a Sponsor that offered hot meals three days a week and cold meals the other two days. We loved the variety that we could offer, and it turned out that our patrons loved the variety as well! Due
to our limited room space (the room that we serve lunches in is the same room that we book for our Summer Reading special performers) we opted to try an earlier serving time for our first year; we served from 11 AM to 12 PM. That turned out to be a tad too
early for our kids. It aligned well with the programs we offered in the morning time frame and gave us plenty of time to get ready for the special performers in the afternoon, but most of our patrons came in closer to noon for lunch. We kept the same Sponsor
in 2017 and knowing that the early serving time didn’t seem to work out as planned, we decided to try serving from 11:30 AM to 12:30 PM. We still received both hot and cold lunches, and the time combination and the meal options seemed to be a good hit!<br>
</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#656565"><img border="0" width="100%" id="_x0000_i1032" src="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/90a27cad-fb60-4141-a09b-0da56dd57c99.jpg" alt="https://gallery.mailchimp.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/90a27cad-fb60-4141-a09b-0da56dd57c99.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#656565"><br>
In 2017, we more than doubled the amount of youth we served lunches to. 2018 was an unusual year, as our State approval was taking longer than usual for our site to be up and running. Since there are various other sites supplied by a different Sponsor throughout
Middletown, we seemed to be losing the youth that we had previously fed for the last two summers. While we were glad that they had access to lunches in our city, we were sad to see our numbers drop. It turned out that our school district had a long summer
to finish up a construction project and we wanted to make sure we provided meals to our youth until they returned to school.<br>
<br>
Luckily, we had a Sponsor in town that was willing to add us on as one of their sites for the remainder of the summer, since our initial Sponsor did not have that capability. Our kids had access to lunches their entire summer break and that was important to
us at the Library, and to our new Sponsor. 2019 brought even more changes for us to better serve our patrons. We got approached by yet another Sponsor that could offer us hot meals Monday thru Friday!<br>
<br>
Throughout our years of being a serving site, our most common feedback was asking if we could have hot meals the entire week. With our previous two Sponsors, that was beyond our control. Now we had the option for hot or cold meals – and we decided upon hot
meals. Another added benefit we had with this new Sponsor was the option of adding a snack time later in the afternoon. We immediately jumped at this offer, knowing once the word got out, we would have happy youth (and guardians)! While we have had ups and
downs over the past four years, our main goal is to make sure the youth in our city have access to healthy meals, and we are doing just that.<br>

(WFD), was first launched in Rome, Italy in 1958 to promote human rights of deaf people and highlight topics critical for awareness. In 2018, International Day of Sign Languages, adopted by the United Nations, is now celebrated annually on September 23.
According to WFD, IDSL serves to “raise the awareness of sign languages and strengthen the status of sign languages around the world.”<br>

As libraries recognize these two observances, we celebrate the diversity of the Deaf and Hard of Hearing Community*. Many culturally Deaf adults usually do not view deafness as a disability. The authors of “Deaf Culture: Exploring Deaf Communities in the
United States” (Leigh, Andrews, Harris, 2018) note in their book:<br>
<br>
Deaf culture is a different way of looking at deaf people. (Holcomb, 2013; Padden & Humphries, 1988). “It legitimizes how they look at life, how they function, and how they define themselves, not by how hearing people define them." (Leigh, Andrews, & Harris,
2018, p. )<br>
<br>
Conversely, individuals who became deaf as adults may view their deafness as a disability because they did not grow up as part of the Deaf Community. While the needs of both communities may be different, the two distinct groups do share many issues in common,
including for example, communication access, captioning, and visual accessibility.<br>
<br>
*These communities include many subgroups such as non-Deaf and Deaf parents of Deaf children, oral Deaf individuals, Deaf persons with disabilities, DeafBlind persons, and so on.<br>
<br>
In the spirit of celebrating Deaf Awareness, we have the following suggestions for library staff:<br>
