New York State Library Early Literacy Training—State Library Research and Best Practices Arizona: Holly Henley, Library Development Director, Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records, A Division of the Secretary of State, Carnegie Center, 1101 West Washington, Phoenix, AZ 85007, Phone: 602-926-3366, Fax: 602-256-7995, E-mail: [email protected] Insights: Library staff members who plan to offer early literacy workshops for parents and caregivers find it very helpful to see a demonstration of Every Child Ready to Read and Brain Time before doing them on their own. They also find it helpful to have someone who can act as a mentor while they are getting started. On an ongoing basis, a vehicle for communication and sharing experiences between those who are doing early literacy outreach is very helpful. It is essential to provide ongoing training opportunities for library staff in order to train new staff members in libraries and to keep continuing staff members informed of the latest best practices. Project Description Partnerships and Funding Training and Technology Evaluation Building a New Generation of Readers: A statewide early literacy Trainings and resources for early Face-to-face trainings with Saroj Rhian Evans Allvin and the Brecon project designed by the State Library that provides public and school literacy are supported with LSTA Ghoting, Betsy Diamant-Cohen, Group prepared an evaluation of librarians with the training and materials to teach parents and childcare funding from IMLS, administered Elaine Meyers and staff from New early literacy work by the State providers strategies for preparing children to enter school ready to learn by the Arizona State Library. -
