Hennepin County Library Community Resource Guide Navigation Guide July 2020 This resource was created by Summer Reads VISTA members. Summer Reads is an AmeriCorps VISTA national service program of Literacy Minnesota. For 8 weeks over the summer, Summer Reads VISTA members volunteer full-time as children’s/youth literacy mentors in schools, libraries and out-of-school-time programs across Minnesota. They bring literacy to life for low-income students through a variety of activities – one-on-one tutoring, creative enrichment activities like using arts and drama to explore language or practicing vocabulary and comprehension in science and other subjects. They also connect students and parents/caregivers to community resources through wrap-around basic needs support. At the same time, the VISTA members build their own leadership, explore career paths, pay for college and become lifelong advocates for the communities they serve due to the power of their experience. www.literacymn.org/summerreads 2 The Library is MORE than just books!

Mobile libraries 5. Teens 6. Spaces, community & democracy 7. The shifting roles of librarians 8. Library collaborations and partnerships Lending Lending, a traditional library function, has grown to allow libraries to fit into their own communities by being able to offer unique services targeted toward the needs and desires of the specific location. If, in addition to book lending, a library also lends unusual items, objects or services - such as musical instruments - over time, the branch often follows through with additional support like music teachers, concerts, etc. Here are some examples: Tools Berkeley's Tool Lending Library Berkeley, California Seeds Seed lending library Richmond Public Library | Richmond, California Musical instruments Ukulele lending library Musical instruments Portland Public Library Lopez Island Library Portland, ME Lopez Island, WA Internet New York, New York Humans Ottawa Public Library Ontario, Canada Cake pans New Gloucester Public Library New Gloucester, Maine Outdoor equipment Topsham Public Library Topsham, Maine Outdoor exploration York Public Library | York, Maine Makerspaces The nature of knowledge is changing. With technology becoming increasingly accessible, more and more people are transitioning from simple consumers of information to creators and inventors of knowledge. Anyone with a smart phone has, in their pocket, a sound studio, a video production system, an artist's palette and more.
