Rick Steves is an American travel author, television host, and activist. As a child, he took his first trip to

Europe in 1969, visiting piano factories with his father, a piano importer. By the time he reached 18, Steves joked, “I realized I didn’t need my parents to travel!” He began travel-ing on his own, funding his trips by teaching piano lessons. In 1976, he started his busi-ness, Rick Steves’ Europe, which has grown from a one-man operation to a company with a staff of 100 full-time, well-traveled employees at his headquarters in Washington state. The session will take place on Sunday, from, 9:30 – 10:30 a.m. at the 2019 ALA Midwinter Meeting & Exhibits in Seattle.

In 2009, Steves tackled a new genre of travel writing with Travel as a Political Act: How to Leave Your Baggage Behind, available now. The book reflects on how a life of travel broadened his own perspectives and how travel can be a significant force for peace and understanding in the world. With les-

The American Library Association will reveal the next classics in children’s and young adult literature during its Youth Me-dia Awards announcements at 8:00 a.m. on Monday. Libraries, schools, and book lovers from around the globe will follow the action live through ALA social media channels and the live webcast at http://ala.unikron.com.

The YMA webcast is made possible by the generous support from Baker & Taylor, a Fol-lett Company. “Thank you to Baker & Taylor for assisting with ALA’s efforts to share YMA selections with mass audiences,” said ALA President Loida Garcia-Febo. “The YMA webcast continues to grow in popularity as more educators use the broadcast as a tool to support mock elections and the backdrop for class celebrations across the globe. Last year alone more than 25,000 viewers joined us live as we announced the best of the best in literature for youth. We are grateful for Baker & Taylor’s support as we continue to work to foster a love for reading and a nation of avid readers.”

Recognized worldwide for the high qual-ity they represent, the ALA Youth Media Awards, including the prestigious Coretta Scott King Book, Caldecott, Newbery, and

Printz Awards, guide parents, educators, librarians, and others in selecting the best materials for youth. Award winners rarely go out of print and stay on library shelves for decades.

Fans can view ALA Youth Media Award results in real time by following the hashtag #alayma, or the Facebook live stream @AmericanLibraryAssociation.

A complete list of award winners will post to the ALA Youth Media Awards webcast page immediately following the live broad-cast. An encore presentation of the 2019 announcements will be available at the same location later in the day.

The rollout of ALA’s new advocacy resources on Friday begs one question: What are libraries advocating for in 2019? As the administration hits the midpoint and the new 116th Congress begins, library issues are on the table – including funding, copyright, privacy, education, and telecommunications. So, what can the library community expect over the next two years? How does the government shutdown affect key policy priorities for libraries? How can libraries prepare for the inevitable battles – and opportunities – on the horizon?

See new advocacy tools and hear from ALA policy experts about what Congress and the administration mean for your bottom line at “Libraries & Public Policy After the Midterm Elec-tions & the Midpoint of the Admin-istration,” today from 10:30 – 11:30 a.m., WSCC room 618-620.

The Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) announces the recipients of the 2019 Excellence in Academic Librar-ies Award: Swarthmore College Libraries, Swarthmore, Penn.; The College of Western Idaho Library, Nampa, Idaho; and Case Western Reserve University Kelvin Smith Library, Cleveland, Ohio. Sponsored by ACRL and GOBI Library Solutions from EBSCO, the award recognizes the staff of a college, community college, and university library for programs that delivers exemplary services and resources to further the educa-tional mission of the institution.

“I am delighted that ACRL can high-light the many amazing accomplishments of academic libraries through this award,” said ACRL Executive Director Mary Ellen K. Davis. “This year’s winners demonstrate a clear commitment to student success, a creative and inventive mindset that results in innovative programs, and engagement with

the local and campus communities.”Swarthmore College Libraries, winner

in the college category, impressed the award committee with its integration of social justice into library services.

“The social justice theme that infused all of the work presented in Swarthmore College’s materials made them a standout, exemplifying their team approach and thoughtful integration of values,” said Irene M.H. Herold, chair of the 2019 Excellence in Academic Libraries Committee. “Their work with the National Security Archive creating research internships which included filing Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests; workshops bringing book artists in conversation with local Syrian and Iraqi individuals resettled to the area; and commit-ment to sustainability and an open approach to education are just a few of the many highlighted activities that demonstrated how Swarthmore College Libraries did not

just meet, but exceeded the award criteria.”“We are thrilled to receive this recogni-

tion of the fantastic work of the Swarthmore College Libraries staff,” said Peggy Seiden, college librarian at Swarthmore College. “To-gether we continue to realize our dreams for what this library can be for our community – inclusive, risk taking, innovative. This is a snapshot of a beautiful moment.”

The College of Western Idaho Library (CWI), winner of this year’s award in the community college category, was chosen for its creative innovation.

“The College of Western Idaho is a col-lege and library that did not exist 10 years ago. Now, this library provides a model of best practice for what can be accomplished with creativity, will power, and goodwill,” noted Herold. “In a decentralized campus, the library was innovative in looking at how to function and provide communal space to support student and campus needs as a library, maker hub, and mobile classroom. Of their many noteworthy activities, the inclusion of student employees in implicit bias training, the development of a chatbot named ‘Patronus,’ and micro-credentialing initiative stood out.”

“We are humbled and thrilled by this recognition from our academic library col-leagues,” said Kim Reed, director of library services at CWI. “This award shows it’s not things, such as a big endowment or a state-of-the-art facility, but rather people who make a library great. As a young community college library, our most valuable asset is our

talented, collaborative, innovative team of staff who consistently rise above everyday demands to guide our students towards greater academic and career success.”

Case Western Reserve University’s Kel-vin Smith Library, winner in the university category, was selected for its collaborative approach to problem solving.

“The Kelvin Smith Library partners to solve community problems and applies what they do to solve problems within their own community,” said Herold. “As quoted in their nomination, ‘Research can be used for the advocacy of communities experiencing disruption and inequality,’ and the library is a shining model of this. Noteworthy among numerous reported activities were the Freed-man Fellowship for Digital Scholarship pro-gram, using space assessment data to make changes in support of student success, and its National Personal Librarian Conference.”

“We are elated to receive this important recognition of the collaborative achievements of our highly motivated and creative staff, who work tirelessly to ensure student success, advance research, and provide a conducive environment to stimulate a love of learning,” said Arnold Hirshon, associate provost and university librarian at Case Western Reserve University.

Each winning library will receive $3,000 and a plaque, to be presented at an award ceremony held on each recipient’s campus.

Additional information on the award, along with a list of past winners, is available in the awards section of the ACRL website.

Meeting room policies, drag queen story-times, research databases, and library book displays have made headlines and sparked controversy in libraries. At the 2019 ALA Midwinter Meeting, the ALA Office for Intellectual Freedom (OIF) will host “Intel-lectual Freedom and the Law: Issues and Updates for Meeting Rooms, Drag Queen Storytimes, and Library Displays,” a program that will provide information about the legal

Meeting Rooms, Displays, and Drag Queen Storytimes Discussed at ALA Midwinter

issues surrounding these topics, as well as guidance on crafting library policies that protect and meet the needs of the library and its community; uphold intellectual freedom; and comply with the law. The program will provide ample time for audience questions and discussion.

This News You Can Use session is pre-sented by Theresa Chmara, general counsel of the Freedom to Read Foundation, and

moderated by Deborah Caldwell-Stone, deputy director of the Office for Intellectual Freedom.

Book displays, research databases, and drag queen storytime programs have been the targets of recent censorship attempts, including lawsuits intended to halt library programs and remove library resources. An important conversation about meeting room policies and access for controversial

groups took place in the library community after the adoption of the revised “Meeting Rooms: An Interpretation of the Library Bill of Rights” during the ALA Annual Confer-ence in New Orleans, sparking a return to the 1991 interpretation and a proposed revi-sion to address these concerns. “Intellectual Freedom and the Law” will use these real-life issues to outline relevant legal concepts and offer guidance on developing effective library policy. The presenters encourage attendees to raise questions and concerns during the latter half of the program.

“Intellectual Freedom and the Law” will take place today from 1:00 – 2:00 p.m. in WSCC room 618-620.

Dav Pilkey, New York Times bestselling author of Captain Underpants and Dog Man books, will serve as the national spokesperson for the 2019 celebration of School Library Month. Observed in April and sponsored by the American Association of School Librarians (AASL), School Library Month celebrates school libraries as open, equitable, and personalized learning environments necessary for every student’s well-rounded education.

“Growing up with learning challenges in school after being diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia, I’ve been fortunate to have had the encouragement and support of my parents, who helped me to associate reading with fun,” said Pilkey. “I have fond memories of going to the library with my mom who had a radical idea – she let me pick whatever book I wanted to read. I read lots of books and magazines that made me laugh out loud, which led me to discover many other books in different genres. Reading without judg-ment was a turning point in my life and that is what made me a lifelong reader.”

Pilkey first created a comic book about a superhero named Captain Underpants in the second grade. The series now has more than 80 million copies in print worldwide and has been translated into more than 28 languages. In 2017, DreamWorks Animation brought the character to the silver screen in the fea-ture film adaptation “Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie,” and Netflix launched the animated TV series “The Epic Tales of Captain Underpants” in 2018.

His latest character, Dog Man, is a #1 global bestselling series with more than 23 million copies in print worldwide and trans-lations available in more than 23 languages. Pilkey is also the creator of the Dragon series,

the Dumb Bunnies, Dog Breath, and The Paperboy, which is a Caldecott Honor Book.

“A few years ago, I had the great pleasure of hearing Dav Pilkey speak to families about his craft and super powers,” said AASL President Kathryn Roots Lewis. “As I watched the crowd, both parents and their children were absolutely enthralled, heads nodding, children and parents whispering acknowledgement. Dav Pilkey helped learn-ers, both young and old, in that large venue identify their own super powers and better understand their unique challenges.”

“Over the years I’ve had the privilege to have met many committed librarians whose passion and dedication to literacy is life changing,” said Pilkey. “I’m honored to be this year’s AASL ambassador for school libraries and an advocate for everything they do to make the world a better place.”

Lewis shared her thanks to Pilkey, saying, “Dav’s role as a champion for all learners is representative of the transformational change he has made in the lives of readers everywhere. What a powerful message for all of us! Please join me in thanking Dav for his dedication to literacy as AASL’s spokesperson as we celebrate School Library Month.”

During the Opening Session of the Midwinter Meeting & Exhibits on Friday, ALA President Loida Garcia-Febo announced that philanthropist and author Melinda Gates will serve as honorary chair of this year’s National Library Week, April 7-13, 2019. Gates will lend her support to raise awareness of the value and impact libraries have in the communities they serve.

The theme for this year’s National Library Week is Libraries = Strong Com-munities. It is a reminder that libraries of all types are at the heart of their cities,

towns, schools, and campuses. They provide resources, programs, and spaces that help people of all backgrounds to learn and connect.

To help start planning for National Library Week, free promotional tools are available at ALA.org/NLW, includ-ing digital and print graphics and tem-plates for social media posts and PSAs. There is also a new NLW ALA Connect Group, where library professionals can hear the latest news as well as brainstorm ideas. ALA membership is not required to join the discussion group.

The 2020 Census begins April 1, 2020, and libraries will play an essential role in helping their communities be counted. Now is a good time for libraries to begin thinking about what activities they might undertake to meet these special, once-a-decade de-mands – and how to access resources to fulfill those needs. Along with planning potential activities, libraries can begin assessing their resource needs and look for funding oppor-tunities from government, philanthropy, and business partners.

Hear from librarians who have been involved with their state, regional, or local Complete Count Committee efforts and learn about a new advocacy publication from ALA’s Office of Public Policy and Advocacy at Library Advocacy and Com-munity Engagement in the 2020 Census on Sunday from 4:00 – 5:00 p.m., WSCC room

Preserving Appalachian Community History After researching her own family history, alum Juniper Starr realized how much information is lost because people often don’t believe their stories are worth telling. When a practicum op-portunity arose to preserve the history of Afri-can-Americans in Appalachia, she was thrilled. She spent a semester working on the documen-tary “Blacks in Appalachia” with East Tennessee PBS, in which she collected and digitized his-torical material from the Greene County African American community.

travel frequently, learn about the world, and bring that knowledge back home. He stresses that America’s current stand on world trade and environmental issues is in the minority – and that the world’s well-being depends on travel – which is the only way to know how other countries live and think.

Steves spends about a third of every year in Europe researching guidebooks, filming TV shows, and making new discoveries for travelers. His popular, PBS travel series, “Rick

Steves’ Europe” is carried by over 300 stations, reaching 95 percent of U.S. market. He also hosts a weekly national public radio show, “Travel with Rick Steves,” where he interviews travel experts and hosts listener call-ins. With more than 50 guidebooks, a popular podcast, audio walking tours, a weekly syndicated column with Tribune Media Services, a travel center, website, an active social media pres-ence, and frequent guest-spot appearances on television and radio, Steves has become the leading authority on European travel.

Steves’ appearance at the conference is sponsored by Hachette Book Group.

Those interested in making con-nections at the intersection of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Assessment are invited to join the LLAMA Assessment Community of Practice at the Mid-winter Meeting Hot Topics Discussion Group as we learn how to plan for diver-sity for aspects of library work, starting with a diversity audit.

Libraries don’t just become diverse and inclusive; we have to be intentional and plan for it. What each library needs

LLAMA Assessment Community of Practice at the Midwinter Meeting Hot Topics Discussion Group

to do to create a diverse and inclusive work environment varies depending on what it is already doing. Each institu-tion is at different points in achieving diversity and inclusion. This session, on Sunday from 4:00 – 5:00 p.m. in WSCC room 303, will present a diver-sity audit process to uncover strengths and gaps in engaging diversity in the planning and operation of library ser-vices and the action needed to create an inclusive workplace.

The application process for the 2019 “Leading to the Future” ALA Leadership Institute (August 5 - 8, Hilton Oak Brook/Chicago Conference Center and Resort, Oak Brook, Ill.) is underway, with applications accepted through March 8. Building on the success of the past ALA Leadership Institutes, the four-day immersive leadership develop-ment program for 40 mid-career librarians will be led again by ALA Past-President Maureen Sullivan and library and leadership consultant Kathryn Deiss.

Now in its seventh year, the institute helps future library leaders develop and practice their leadership skills in areas critical to the future of the libraries they lead. Through reflective and active learning, it offers partici-pants an opportunity to delve into leadership practices, concepts, and frameworks, and to shape their own sustainable leadership vision and ethos, at the same time as building a

learning community and network. With con-tent based on real-world cases and nuanced situations, participants explore topics related to the greatest challenges and possibilities of leading into a future marked by turbulence and ambiguity.

Participants in past institutes highlighted a wide range of benefits, describing it as the “best professional development…related to leadership,” with a “wonderful atmosphere and congeniality among participants and between participants and facilitators.” Most attendees have given the ALA Leadership Institute the top rating possible in the post-event survey.

The application form as well as details and guidelines are at www.ala.org/educationca-reers/leadership. Applicants may nominate themselves or be nominated by their em-ployer. Participation includes a free one-year membership in the Library Leadership and Management Association, a division of ALA.

Application Deadline for 2019 ALA Leadership Institute Quickly Approaching

The 2019 Symposium on the Future of Libraries kicks off this morning with the “Libraries Transform – Social Innova-tion” (8:30 – 10:00 a.m.; WSCC 611/612) plenary session, featuring Arnold Phom-mavong of AIGA Seattle’s Design for Good group and Sarah Studer, assistant director of the Buerk Center for Entrepreneurship at the University of Washington’s Michael G. Foster School of Business. Arnold and Sarah will discuss how they use their respective passions – Phommavong’s for design and Studer’s for entrepreneurship – to address some of the big social issues in their com-munities. By leveraging their talents and bringing people together, Phommavong and Studer show how future problem-solvers will address some of the big issues in our com-munities. The session will be moderated by Sonia Alcántara-Antoine, director, Newport News Public Library.

The day’s concurrent sessions continue with a focus on social change while expand-ing out to cover a broad array of topics. “Estelita’s Library - A Space for Social Jus-tice” (10:30 – 11:30 a.m., WSCC 611/612) features Edwin Lindo, founder of Estelita’s Library, a new justice-focused community bookstore and library whose collection fea-tures books about race, class, politics, and the history of oppressed peoples in a space that inspires conversation and discovery. “Increasing Diversity and Inclusion in Computational Thinking: An Equity Issue for Libraries” (1:00 – 2:00 p.m.; WSCC 611-612) will explore how libraries are uniquely positioned to prepare youth with new lit-eracies and skills for future educational and career paths. Learning from 28 Ready to Code Libraries, the session will share what computational thinking in libraries looks like, why it’s important, and facilitation models that broadened youth participation, shift staff perceptions, and impact libraries and their communities. “Pushing on the Frontier: Disability Access and the Future of Libraries” (3:00 – 4:00 p.m.; WSCC 608) considers how libraries can be truly inclusive and accessible for all, beyond just web ac-cessibility to further involve themselves in

Social Innovation Leads Saturday Symposium Offerings

the creation, remediation, and sharing of accessible content.

For the more tech-focused, several ses-sions look at how we will promote, teach, and collaborate with technology in the future. “Bridging the Digital and Physical: Increasing Engagement with Unique Collec-tions Through Digital Tools” (10:30 – 11:30 a.m.; WSCC 608) shares the experience of the UC Santa Cruz Library creating en-hanced digital exhibit experiences that aid student scholarship, enhance on-site exhibit attendance, engage the broader community through online viewing of exhibitions, and preserve a record of physical exhibits after their de-installation. “Algorithms, Implicit Bias, and Search Literacy: Exploring Beliefs Among Computer Science Students About Search Engine and Machine Learning Models” (1:00 – 2:00 p.m.; WSCC 608) shares the findings of a cross-institutional survey of computer science students at three universities to understand graduate and undergraduate students’ attitudes and knowledge of bias in machine learning and big-data algorithms. “Digital Discovery and Architectural Interface Design: Prototyping Architectural-scale Interfaces for Discovery Across Digital and Tangible Collections” (1:00 - 2:00 p.m.; WSCC 606) reports on the efforts of a working group of librarians, architects, anthropologists and software designers to design, model, and prototype new architectural-scale formats for informa-tion discovery.

The scheduled ALA Masters Series, “An Unmistakable, Unmissable Positive Pres-ence in the Community - The Toledo Lucas County Public Library” (12:00 – 12:45 p.m.; WSCC 611/612), has unfortunately been canceled due to changes in the speakers’ travel schedules.

The Symposium on the Future of Li-braries will continue with more sessions on Sunday and Monday.

An unusually bitter Arctic blast has made its way to downtown Cincinnati and landed at the front doors of the public library, which serves as a de-facto daytime homeless shelter for the poor and marginalized.

At odds with library staff and officials over how to handle the extreme weather event, the patrons turn the building into an emergency homeless shelter for the night by staging a sit-in. What begins as an act of civil disobedience becomes a standoff with police and the news media eager to criminalize the occupiers to boost their ratings.

A David-versus-Goliath story for our times, this movie tackles some of the nation’s most challenging issues: homelessness, men-tal illness, addiction, and the militarization of law enforcement, all set inside one of the last bastions of democracy-in-action – your public library.

Written, directed, and co-starring Emilio Estevez, it stars Alec Baldwin, Jeffrey Wright, Jena Malone, Christian Slater, Gabrielle Union, Taylor Schilling, Michael K. Wil-liams, Che “Rhymefest” Smith, and Jacob Vargas.

hart, American Libraries senior editor and host of the magazine’s popular Dewey Decibel podcast (https://soundcloud.com/dewey-decibel-703453552), leads a panel of librarian podcasters in a conversation about podcasting: why they started their podcasts; why librarians should (or shouldn’t) start one; how to make the case for a podcast; what equipment is needed; what topics to cover in a podcast; and more. The panel will also share stories about launching and maintaining their own successful podcasts.

Pack Your Bags for a Literary and Cultural Tour of North and Western Ireland with ASGCLA!

The Association of Specialized, Government, and Cooperative Library Agencies (ASGCLA) is sponsoring a seven-night themed tour of North and Western Ireland. The May 11 – 18, 2019 tour focuses on some of the greatest writers to come from the region. These writers include W.B. Yeats, Seamus Heaney, C. S. Lewis, and hundreds of others that are part of the collective culture of the Irish literary world.

This fascinating tour will take you to the writer’s birthplaces, schools, writing rooms, and final homes. History and epic scenery will be taken in each day to delight and wonder the visitor to this ancient and wildly beautiful country. For details and full itinerary, go to www.asgcladirect.org/travel/.

As we transition more fully into an open system for communicating the results of scholarship, the decisions that libraries make individually and collectively about what and whom to support – and under what terms – will determine whether we meaningfully address inequities created by legacy academic publishing systems or simply recreate them in new ways. These decisions will shape li-braries’ role in the scholarly enterprise, now and for the future.

The ACRL SPARC Forum at the 2019 ALA Midwinter Meeting features a one-hour panel discussion exploring emerging models for supporting scholarly infrastructure that put alignment with community values and

ACRL-SPARC Forum: Community Alignment and Equity for Emerging Scholarly Infrastructure

considerations of equity at their core. The conversation will include both the perspec-tive of people who are actively working to build open, community-aligned infrastruc-ture and research funders who are committed to supporting an open system for scholar-ship that prioritizes equity and the needs of researchers. Moderated by Heather Joseph, executive director of SPARC, this session will contextualize these models within the broader market for scholarly infrastructure and highlight the role of libraries in creating a future where values are prioritized over vendors.

The forum will be held today from 3:00 – 4:00 p.m., WSCC room 615-617.

YALSA Names 2019 Great Graphic Novels for Teens

The Young Adult Library Services Association (YALSA), a division of the American Library Association (ALA), has announced its 2019 Great Graphic Novels for Teens list.

The books, recommended for those ages 12-18, meet the criteria of both good quality literature and appealing reading for teens. View the full list at www.ala.org/yalsa/great-graphic-novels.

In addition to the full list, the blog-ging team chose the following titles as its top 10:

• Anne Frank’s Diary: The Graphic Adaptation by Anne Frank and

Ari Folman.

“It is with great pleasure that our committee shares the 2019 list of Great Graphic Novels for Teens. This selection of 138 outstanding comics, graphic novels, and manga was curated by a passionate and knowledgeable group of teen advocate librarians and features a terrifically diverse roster,” said chair Tina Lerno. “We worked hard to find and select titles that were socially responsible while offering entertain-ment, support, educational value, or all three to teens from a variety of backgrounds and experiences. It is our sincere hope that both teens and librar-ians find value and joy in reading and sharing these wonderful titles.”

The suggestion form for the 2020 Great Graphic Novels for Teens list is open. If you’d like to suggest a title to the blogging team for consideration as a nominee, please fill out the form.

YALSA’s portfolio of book and me-dia awards helps strengthen library ser-vices for and with teens by identifying quality, age, appropriate resources for librarians and library workers to share with the teens in their communities.
