Contents A Conversation on School Libraries in Idaho by Norma Jean Sprouffske and Judy Ferro How would you characterize the quality of library services currently being offered to Idaho students across the K-12 spectrum by the state’s public schools? NJS We all know that Idaho has many fine school library staff doing their best with the resources they have. So let’s take a step outside of our world and look at this from a non-Idahoan’s vantage point. I feel Idaho has mixed grades. State-funded LiLI databases and the Idaho State Library’s support are among our shining stars. Another star is the opportunity for professional development and networking that the Idaho Library Association and intra- and inter-district library groups provide (e.g., regular meetings held by Meridian’s secondary media generalists or Canyon-Owyhee Library Group). Outsiders would see that we have many challenges on the road to quality library services. For instance, Idaho accreditation does not require certified personnel in its K-12 school libraries nor specify much in the way of guidelines for a school library media program. Some untrained paraprofessionals share horror stories of basically “You’re hired.

How do I know when something should be pitched? There's a really old video on first aid that the fifth grade teacher is still using. It's inaccurate in some sections. What should I do? One of my buildings is closing. How do I get rid of everything? You also need policies that help you in the reconsideration process. A statement regarding the need for reevaluation of materials should be part of your selection policy. It should also indicate specifications for periodic inventories and recommendations for continuous and intermittent examination. Finally, criteria should be included for deselection of materials.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Release Date: March 21, 2005 Contact: Steve Rector Public Affairs Director Reed Hollinshead Community Development Planning Draws Record Crowd in Kuna BOISE - About 225 people filled the Kuna High School Auditorium March 8 for a chance to comment on local community development issues, a record turnout in the five-year history of the Idaho Community Review. ICR helps communities design and implement development strategies. Typical turnout for the public-input phase is about 50 people. "We had youth, seniors, families, business leaders and ecclesiastical leaders turn out," said Zella Johnson, Kuna city council member. "The Chamber of Commerce did a wonderful job, and the marketing and advertising efforts within the community were tremendous. I believe people really want to be heard, and much of our success owes to the fact that they know they are being heard." The main topics were concerns over transportation and bridge access in the northwest part of town, parking, recreation, school support and infrastructure. ICR is a collaboration among private and public entities such as Idaho Housing and Finance Association, the Association of Idaho Cities, Idaho Rural Partnership, Boise State University, Idaho Department of Commerce and Labor, and HUD's Idaho field office. IHFA participates on the ICR Planning Team and works with communities to address local housing and other needs. "Housing affordability is a growing issue in rural Idaho," noted IHFA's Housing Resources Coordinator Erik Kingston. "it's critical to include in any community an economic development discussion."
