<h1>Comparing Apples to Oranges<o:p></o:p></h1>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">by Aimee Adams, Events Coordinator, Medina County District Library, Ohio<br>
<br>
In the world of statistics, previous years always pop back up since we normally compare them to the current year’s performance. While 2020 is behind us, it continues to haunt us like those leftovers that got pushed to the back of the fridge. You’ve probably
 heard the age-old idiom that “you can’t compare apples to oranges,“ but what if you could? Using fill rate ratios can add an extra dimension to your system’s programming audits to determine which programs to resume as COVID-19 restrictions relax.<br>
<br>
If you are in a multi-branch system perhaps you are accustomed to thinking big branches are apples and small branches are oranges--incomparable. You might also consider your Summer Reading Kick-Off celebration that brings in hundreds or thousands an apple while
 your story times that only bring in tens are oranges. How can you compare the two? Consider adopting a method of examining the fill rate ratio by using expected and actual attendance stats.<br>
<br>
Develop the expected attendance as part of your program planning process. How many people do you expect to attend? Sometimes it’s pretty straightforward:

After the program takes place, take the number of actual attendees and divide it by the expected attendance numbers. This number will give you the fill rate ratio for that particular program. For example, if I plan a story time for 30 people and 25 attend,
 I end up with a ratio of 83% (25 / 30 = 83.33%).<br>
<br>
Once all programs have an expected attendance and fill rate ratio, you have the ability to compare some apples to oranges: small-scale can be compared to larger-scale programs and branches can be compared. This method shows how small-but-mighty branches and
 programs can hold their own against larger counterparts. It also demonstrates there can be much more to stats and success than merely counting people in chairs.<br>

<h1>Tabletop Role Playing Games: A Summer Primer<o:p></o:p></h1>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="line-height:150%"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020">by Christine Martin-Resotko, Capital Area District Libraries - Mason, MI<br>
<br>
Tabletop role playing games make a wonderful addition to any summer reading program.  For this year’s theme, some appropriate games would be Tails of Equestria (My Little Pony Friendship is Magic), Pugmire, The Secret of Cats (FATE supplement), and Anthro Adventures
 (Dungeons and Dragons supplement).<br>

<br>
Summer is a perfect time to get creative with kids and teens.  There are crafts, storytimes, and more that we see every year and all the kids enjoy.  What can sometimes be lacking is a more interactive, cooperative creative outlet.  Tabletop role playing games
 can feel that niche.<br>
<br>
A tabletop role playing game (RPG) is where you and a group of 4-8 people<br>
cooperatively tell a story that you make up as you go along.  You have books with rules to guide your play, dice to help randomize the results of any action you wish to take, and one person who takes the role of the Game Master (GM) or Dungeon Master (DM),
 the person who guides the whole process. The whole thing takes place in the imaginations of the people playing. All you really need is a rule book, dice, paper, pencils, and a group of players.  There are no age limits for this hobby, and you can explore any
 genre you like.<br>
<br>
The great thing about incorporating tabletop RPGs into summer reading programs is that your theme is already picked out for you.  If your theme is superheroes, start a game with all your players as kids or teens who just got their superpowers and have to navigate
 life with them.  A space theme leads you to popular franchises like Star Trek and Star Wars.  The sky’s the limit to the choices of games you have.<br>
<br>
The best place to start is to look for a Quickstart adventure.  This is an adventure with an abbreviated set of rules and a group of characters for your players.  It is a perfect starting place if you aren’t familiar with tabletop RPGs and don’t want to have
 to read through several hundred pages of rules and setting information.  Most games require some kind of dice, and there are plenty of free dice roller apps that can accommodate almost any game.<br>
</span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><img border="0" width="100%" id="_x0000_i1032" src="https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/965ad4d9-0abf-46fd-b850-682095872743.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br>
<br>
For those familiar with RPGs, look for adventures or settings for a preferred game system.  Many people have created rules to modify games like Dungeons and Dragons for all sorts of settings.  There are also many generic systems that allow for any type of play
 desired.  FATE and GURPs are two of the most flexible systems on the market, and both have free PDFs available.<br>
<br>
The best part is when the group is together.  Kids and teens come up with wild ideas while playing.  The story will take all sorts of twists and turns.  Everyone will laugh, and have stories to tell to all their friends.  Being part of the story is the best
 part of any RPG.  They are the heroes battling the bad guys, investigating the hidden temple, exploring a new planet.  Imaginations will soar, and they will keep coming back for more.  Enjoy the ride.

 Week, educators, libraries, and other community groups set aside time to recognize the contributions of Asians, Asian Americans, and Pacific Islanders. Something to remember when working with the AAPI communities is that there is no one “Asian” ethnicity or
 culture. The largest continent on earth is home to billions of people who are of every race, ethnicity, religion, color, language, and tradition. Asian Americans have roots and connections all over the world. From the South Central Asian migration to Guadalajara,
 NYC’s, LA’s, and Chicago’s Chinatowns, Japanese migration to South America, to the Southeast Asian relocations to the Gulf coast, the recorded history of AAPI people started with Filipinos landing in the Americas off Spanish galleons in Louisiana in the 1500s!
 Libraries can show appreciation for the hundreds of cultures represented by the umbrella group by planning events that show commonalities among human beings while maintaining appreciation for people with Asian and AAPI heritage.</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#656565"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
