  • Before the Multnomah County Library District Board
    BEFORE THE MULTNOMAH COUNTY LIBRARY DISTRICT BOARD RESOLUTION NO. 2017-057 Adopting the Multnomah County Library Space Planning Framework. The Multnomah County Library District (MCLD) Board Finds: a. Established in 1864, today's Multnomah County Library is one of the busiest, best and most beloved public library systems in the United States. b. The library offers a wide range of resources, services and personal assistance to people of all ages. c. The library commenced a space planning process in July 2016, engaging nearly 4,000 residents, community leaders, partner agencies, educators and nonprofits for input and carefully reviewed use patterns, demographic data and industry best practices. d. The physical structure of this system began in the Andrew Carnegie era, when libraries served vastly different purposes than today. e. Multnomah County Library's library spaces total just 260,000 square feet, a rate of just over 0.3 square feet per capita. Other Oregon library systems offer up to three times that amount per capita. f. All 19 Multnomah County libraries, plus library office and storage space, would fit into Seattle's downtown library. g. Growth projections show an increase of population to more than 910,000 in Multnomah County by 2035. h. Demographic data show increasing needs in east Portland and east Multnomah County, which offers just 25% of total library space, yet is home to 40% of residents. The Multnomah County Library District Board Resolves: 1. Adopt the findings of Multnomah County Library Framework for Future Library Spaces, authored by Group 4 Architecture. 2. Envision a resulting system of libraries that provides modern and adequate spaces for people across Multnomah County.

  • Director's Report
    Director’s Report Agenda Item No. 2 August/September 2017 Adult literacy tutoring returns to Midland Library After a successful six-month pilot, Midland Library is resuming its adult literacy drop-in tutoring program. Beginning in September, adults looking for one-on-one tutoring assistance to improve their English or math skills, study for the GED, or get help with various other educational and professional exams will once again have the opportunity to work with library sta and volunteers. The program has proved invaluable for the nearly 20 adults who drop in for tutoring each session. Participants surveyed said they had fun, learned new things and felt more connected to the community by participating. A majority of participants attended because they want to get a job or get into college. Even with its established success, Adult Literacy Coordinator Lisa Regimbal plans to continue improving the program, with goals to attract more GED students, add GED tutoring in Spanish, and conduct more outreach to social service agencies and community colleges. Library volunteers have also expressed how meaningful the tutoring experience has been: Library Director’s Report to Library Advisory Board 1 of 6 Director’s Report Agenda Item No. 2 August/September 2017 “Volunteering in this role makes me feel like I'm helping build the kind of community I want to live in” said one Midland volunteer. Drop-in tutoring resumes at Midland Library on Tuesday, September 19 from 5 to 7pm, and will expand to Central Library every Thursday beginning October 12 from 10:30 am to 2pm. Eclipse fever During the month of August, eclipse fever took over Oregon, culminating with the rare solar event on Monday, August 21.

  • Director's Report
    Agenda Item No. 2 February 9, 2016 Library Director’s Report to Multnomah County Library Advisory Board Multnomah County Library joins City Club discussion on digital inclusion In January, I was invited to speak at Portland City Club on the topic of digital inclusion and what it means for the library and our community’s future. I joined Intel’s Vice President of Human Resources Patricia McDonald, Innovate Oregon’s Social Alchemist Dwayne Johnson and Elemental Technologies’ CEO Sam Blackman to discuss how and why it’s so important for us to bridge the digital divide. This discussion was a great opportunity to demonstrate the library’s critical role in digital inclusion and to make the link between library services and a richer, more diverse employee pipeline and the resulting effects of economic development and civic participation. Patron Kathleen Nelson joined the conversation to demonstrate the real impact access and training can make. “I’m here to profess my profuse thanks to the library for their one-on-one computer tutoring resource,” said Kathleen, who, after a long-term professional-level career, was out of the workforce for 15 years. When she returned to the workforce in an entry-level position, Kathleen went looking for low- cost computer resources and found few options. “After working once a week with Carlos [Galeana, bilingual Spanish regional technology coordinator], I received a significant promotion at work and I am also now a very enthusiastic volunteer for the library,” Kathleen said. Thank you to City Club for creating space for this discussion, which is only just beginning.

Using Facebook Live, the team launched the first live streaming pajama storytime. Tasha, a youth librarian at Hollywood, presented the first Facebook Live storytime on April 14, reading Grumpy Pants, ​ ​ Owl Babies, and Everyone is Yawning. ​ ​ ​ The first Facebook Live storytime was viewed more than 3,000 times and easily became the library’s most “attended” storytime. The staff gathered immediate patron feedback about the experience: “My daughter and I watched the pajama story time last night. It was so fun. When you signed off she said ‘again again!’” “Lucinda (age 3 and 1/2) and I caught the last half of the live storytime on 4/25. We watched it together, and she was immediately engaged.

They plan to use what they’ve learned to find other innovative ways to connect patrons with library services and programs.

  • ​Director's Report
    ​Director’s Report Agenda Item No. 3 February 2020 From the director The last couple of weeks have been a whirlwind! On January 30, we reached a huge milestone in the history of Multnomah County Library when we ​presented a detailed proposal​ to the Multnomah County Library District Board to expand and modernize library spaces. For years, our community has been limited by small library spaces. As our population has grown, libraries have not kept pace. Every day, people here miss out on opportunities that are abundant in other communities, near and far. The proposal we presented expands library space by nearly 70%; builds, rebuilds or renovates seven public library locations, including the addition of a new East County flagship library comparable in size to Central Library; adds automation to increase efficiency and speed up delivery times; and increases broadband speeds at all locations. Over the past two-and-a-half years, we’ve done our homework. Our community deserves for us to get this right. The hard work of many library staff and expert partners got us to this point. Now, the next step is up to the Board. If the Board chooses to refer a measure and voters approve it, then we begin the next phase: input and design. We will center our communities in that process. As always, the Library Advisory Board will play a critical role, helping us hear from and respond to the needs of our community. I can’t wait to turn the page and see what unfolds! Library Director’s Report to Library Advisory Board 1 of 5 ​Director’s Report Agenda Item No.
