We travel widely, in person and through various print and electronic mediums. Our lives are interconnectedeconomically, politically, in social concerns, and in educational endeavorswith people in all parts of the world. Our stateitself is made up of people whose families have come from every part of the world and whose lives reflect a multiplicity of traditions. All of us can be enriched when we interact with people whose heritage is different from our own. During this summer's Go Global: Read! activities,librarians have an extraordi- nary opportunity to help children build a strong foundation ofunderstanding and apprecia- tion of other cultures. Children must be able to read well in order to participate successfully in the global environment. To that end, everything you do to stimulate interest in books and to instill a delight in reading is invaluable. The dynamic summertime programs in your libraries reinforce the pleasures and skills of reading and help children explore other important library resources as well. Best wishes as you set off on this summer's vicarious global journey. As you celebrate books, storytellers, music, puppeteers, magicians, and crafts with children and their families, I hope you will be buoyed by laughter, a sense of wonder, and a joyful spirit of exploration. John T. Benson State Superintendent of Public Instruction 0 Preface Once again, the youth services librarians of Wisconsin have contributed creative ideas in order to make a Summer Library Program manual that is a practical guide to program planning and implementation. My sincere thanks go to each one of them and to librarians in other states who have produced summer manuals that enhance this publication. A willingness to share ideas and experiences characterizes much of the fine work carried out by youth services librarians across the country. The theme Go Global: Read! offers unlimited opportunities for active and colorful programs. This manual is by no means comprehensive, but it will prove to be a helpful source of stimulation for those who organize programs in their local libraries. It contains a broad spectrum of ideas: from solid information about varied cultures to playful fantasy tales from many countries. Enjoy the manual, enjoy the other summer program materials produced by the Depart- ment of Public Instruction, andmost importantlyenjoy the children and families you serve so ably! Bon voyage! Jane A. Roeber Youth Services Consultant and Manual Content Editor vii 7 Acknowledgments Madison, Wisconsin, artist Brenda Baker works in a variety of mediums and her brilliantly colored woodcut for the Go Global: Read! poster has succeeded in capturing the spirit of our multifaceted 1999 Summer Library Program. Her abstract globe and its surrounding pattern of sunny rays and decorative elements from many cultures will attract attention wherever they are used. You will find many of them, plus her unique borders, as you read this manual. Baker is director of exhibits and education at the Madison Children's Museum. A true believer in going global, she has traveled widely and has exhibited her work in Brazil and Germany as well as in various parts of the United States. As a mother and in her professional career, Baker is fully attuned to the interests of children and dedicated to opening new and exciting doors for them. 1999 Planning Committee Claudia Backus Deb Lambert Waukesha County Federated Library Hillsboro Public Library System Hillsboro, WI Waukesha, WI Representing Winding Rivers Library Representing Waukesha County Federated System Libra's), System Rose Mary Leaver Jane Besel Arrowhead Library System Jefferson Public Library Janesville, WI Jefferson, WI Representing Arrowhead Library Representing Mid-Wisconsin Federated System Library System Laurie Magee Mary Bohman Oshkosh Public Library Algoma Public Library Oshkosh, WI Algoma, WI Representing Winnefox Library Representing Nicolet Federated Library System System Kathy Mitchell Sharon Charles Clintonville Public Library Southwest Wisconsin Library System Clintonville, WI Fennimore, WI Representing Outagamie-Waupaca Representing Southwest Wisconsin Library Library System System Ida Nemec Miriam Hansen Plum Lake Public Library Indianhead Federated Library System Sayner, WI Eau Claire, WI Representing Northern Waters Library Representing Indianhead Federated Service Library System Molly Panko Barbara Huntington Burlington Public Library South Central Library System Burlington, WI Madison, WI Representing Lakeshores Library Representing South Central Library SystemSystem ix Sue Pesheck Pat Draxler F.L.

    WORKSHOP: Around The World In 30 Instruments Educator’s Guide www.4shillingsshort.com [email protected] AROUND THE WORLD IN 30 INSTRUMENTS A MULTI-CULTURAL EDUCATIONAL CONCERT for ALL AGES Four Shillings Short are the husband-wife duo of Aodh Og O’Tuama, from Cork, Ireland and Christy Martin, from San Diego, California. We have been touring in the United States and Ireland since 1997. We are multi-instrumentalists and vocalists who play a variety of musical styles on over 30 instruments from around the World. Around the World in 30 Instruments is a multi-cultural educational concert presenting Traditional music from Ireland, Scotland, England, Medieval & Renaissance Europe, the Americas and India on a variety of musical instruments including hammered & mountain dulcimer, mandolin, mandola, bouzouki, Medieval and Renaissance woodwinds, recorders, tinwhistles, banjo, North Indian Sitar, Medieval Psaltery, the Andean Charango, Irish Bodhran, African Doumbek, Spoons and vocals. Our program lasts 1 to 2 hours and is tailored to fit the audience and specific music educational curriculum where appropriate. We have performed for libraries, schools & museums all around the country and have presented in individual classrooms, full school assemblies, auditoriums and community rooms as well as smaller more intimate settings. During the program we introduce each instrument, talk about its history, introduce musical concepts and follow with a demonstration in the form of a song or an instrumental piece. Our main objective is to create an opportunity to expand people’s understanding of music through direct expe- rience of traditional folk and world music. ABOUT THE MUSICIANS: Aodh Og O’Tuama grew up in a family of poets, musicians and writers.

    Cats with Wings

    WINGED CATS And yet — in fact you need only draw a single thread at any point you choose out of the fabric of life and the run will make a pathway across the whole, and down that wider pathway each of the other threads will become successively visible, one by one. — Heimito von Doderer, DIE DÂIMONEN HDT WHAT? INDEX WINGED CATS WINGED CATS 1299 There is a tale of a winged predatory cat known as the Cat-a-Mountain in the accounts of Marco Polo (1254- 1324). This beast supposedly had the body of a leopard but a strange skin that stretched out when it hunted, enabling it to fly in the pursuit of its prey. This Cat-a-Mountain is most likely an imagined hybrid — a predatory feline imagined as a large bat or a predatory feline imagined as a large flying squirrel with flaps of skin enabling it to glide. Winged cats of myth and legend were often demonic creatures with “feathered” wings and were liable to swoop down on humans, who were liable to be terrified. Later authors would use Polo’s term to describe a wildcat and by the 17th Century it would have been abbreviated to Catamount and would be being used as a synonym for the American Mountain Lion, Cougar, or Puma.

    Marx, Windows Into the Soul: Surveillance and Popular Culture, Chapter A

    Marx, Windows Into the Soul: Surveillance and Popular Culture, Chapter A Culture and Contexts (intro from printed book) News stories don’t satisfy on a human level. We know that Guantanamo is still open, but do we really know what that means?’ The idea is to experience an emotional understanding, so it’s not just an intellectual abstraction. -Laura Poitras, filmmaker The structure, process and narrative units that make up most of the book rely on language in presenting facts and argument. In contrast, the emphasis in this unit is on forms of artistic expression. .Images and music are one component of the culture of surveillance that so infuses our minds and everyday life. The symbolic materials and meanings of culture are social fabrications (though not necessarily social deceptions). They speak to (and may be intended to create or manipulate) needs, aspirations, and fears. Culture communicates meaning and can express (as well as shape) the shared concerns of a given time period and place. Surveillance technology is not simply applied; it is also experienced by agents, subjects, and audiences who define, judge and have feelings about being watched or a watcher. Our ideas and feelings about surveillance are somewhat independent of the technology per se. As with the devil in Spanish literary tradition (image below) the artist can serve to take the lid off of what is hidden, revealing deeper meanings. Here the artist acts in parallel to the detective and the whistleblower: Marx, Windows Into the Soul: Surveillance and Popular Culture, Chapter A In the original version of the book I divided the cultural materials into two units.
