<h1>Rocky 'Possum's Op'Awesome Adventure<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 Angelique Carico, Britton Newland, Eva Gryder & Mason McLain<br>
<br>
It began with a request from Taylorsville Town Councilwoman, Kim Brown, who wished for a holiday story stroll. In spring of 2021, the State Library held an outdoor programming webinar with UNC-G Assistant<br>
Professor of Library & Information Science, Dr. Noah Lenstra. Youth services staff across North<br>
Carolina shared activities which spurred an idea for ACL’s children’s librarian, Melissa Hager: Encourage summer learners to share stories, artwork, and facts about the much-maligned opossum on painted rocks. All in an effort to combat mis- and dis-information
about North America’s lone marsupial.<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_i1036" src="https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/bc405c33-afa4-60a9-5c4d-d2bb2be3162b.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br>
With COVID, most library event programming in the summer of 2021 halted, including the annual hike at Rocky Face Mountain, a former rock quarry. The hike had been featured in Dr. Lenstra’s book,
<strong><span style="font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif">Healthy Living at the Library.</span></strong><br>
<br>
The rock painting activity allowed for the mountain to come to the county libraries. As rocks. Lots and lots of rocks!<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_i1035" src="https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/fdf89ffe-a00e-3c0c-a6c1-e0db22548ca7.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br>
Procuring a Libraries Transforming Communities: Focus on Small & Rural Libraries grant from the American Library Association, Alexander County Library was able to plan activities for almost a year.<br>
<br>
The summer learning program Tails and Tales kicked off on June 18, 2021.The Neighbors bluegrass band entertained, then Bethlehem artist, Richard Sinclair, unveiled the metal opossum sculpture found on the book’s cover. Wildlife experts Melody Heath and Cathy
Herbert shared facts (as well as a live, juvenile opossum) with gathered patrons. Everyone had an opportunity to participate in the conversation by asking questions and sharing stories. <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_i1034" src="https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/a938f0f5-ff12-ec9a-63a4-ad2a35a8fd4c.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br>
Through the summer, teens volunteered at the library to prepare rocks upon which summer learners could paint and write. The volunteers also designed works from written questions and answers.163 stones were<br>
fashioned through August 2021 and were displayed as the opossum sculpture’s tail in the main library’s lawn.<br>
<br>
Teen writers Angelique Carico, Britton Newland, Eva Gryder, and Mason McLain met in person and online to craft the story, their words inspired by the creative rocks. The main character’s name was determined by a library contest—with Rocky coming out on top.<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_i1033" src="https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/fa696846-556f-4f0e-2b2d-904205b130fd.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:12.0pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:#202020"><br>
Many businesses and organizations in the town of Taylorsville agreed to allow story pages to be displayed in their front windows through the holiday season of 2021. This allowed families and interested parties to walk the festive streets to learn about opossums
and be amazed by the creativity of the youth. Families who completed the Tail Tale Trail received a copy of the book at the main library in Taylorsville.<br>
<br>
Eagle Scout candidate, Mason James, is making steel frames to house the story pages. These will be<br>
installed by a local Boy Scout troop on a trail at Rocky Face Mountain Recreational Area. The project will be unveiled in May 2022. Not only will Rocky’s story be featured, but the library hopes other tales can be shared at the park through the years. <br>
<br>
Alexander County Library wishes to thank everyone for their part in this endeavor, especially the teen writers, the American Library Association, and The Taylorsville Times for publishing the book and pages. The activity promotes literacy and learning, libraries,
health, physical activity, the arts, storytelling, and community building. <o:p>

<h1>A StoryWalk® for Any Budget<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:black">by Ally Doliboa, Youth Programming Coordinator MidPointe Library System, Middletown OH<br>
<br>
In this time of social distancing, one of the most popular items for libraries is having a StoryWalk® available for the community. As someone who loves literature and nature, I couldn’t jump fast enough at bringing two passions together, but I quickly became
overwhelmed as I researched the options for bringing this dream to fruition.<br>
</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black"><img border="0" width="100%" id="_x0000_i1032" src="https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/9385892b-28ea-931b-5af9-67e0136dc717.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
My library already had one permanent StoryWalk® in place when I received a grant to put more in a different part of our service area. The first StoryWalk® we installed was at a local park that included special posts, contractors, and a significant, grant-funded
budget. While the community loves having this StoryWalk® it just isn’t always doable. The community I focused my grant on is an underserved community with a poverty rate of 24.1% (more than double the national rate in 2020). I wanted to put more than one StoryWalk®
in that community due to the size of the city and knowing that statistic and so I started researching temporary options. A practical possibility kept coming up in my research involved using metal sign frames and corrugated plastic signs. Given the fact that
I was planning on installing these strictly during our Summer Reading Program and that I found 8 places to display them, this idea seemed to be perfect. The frames and signs held up nicely during humid Ohio summer months (word to the wise: don’t plan on installing
the sign frames when it hasn’t rained lately!) and were a low budget option.<br>
</span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black"><img border="0" width="100%" id="_x0000_i1031" src="https://mcusercontent.com/043a7515ceb3ad45bdd2dd405/images/727c9166-0184-a92f-5ce8-1a8f5ed3dc64.jpg"></span><span style="font-size:10.5pt;line-height:150%;font-family:"Helvetica",sans-serif;color:black"><br>
We ended up tweaking the designs a bit for the StoryWalk® that we placed at one of our branches. There’s not much of a grassy area at that location so we took the StoryWalk® inside the building, to keep children and families safe from the busy roads that surround
that branch. I realize the irony of putting a StoryWalk® inside, but patron safety came first – and it gave them an opportunity to explore all corners of the building. We also utilized a fence that surrounded a playground at one of our local parks to hold
the StoryWalk® signs instead of putting the frames and signs out at the playground. That option requires even less of a budget and works just as well. A StoryWalk® is a great addition to a community, and there are endless ways to display the books. Don’t let
a budget limit stop you from working with your community partners to get a StoryWalk® in your community, and most importantly, don’t overthink it. It can be simple and just as valuable to your patrons as an expensive, permanent option.

2 teens, and 13 kids - not bad for the building being closed due to COVID! Unlike our summer reading challenge, the winter break reading challenge is a pared down passive program. Patrons must read in three categories to form a tic-tac-toe. They can then fill
out an online form to enter to win a Target gift card.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
