<p class="MsoPlainText"><b>Information Literacy</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Last week, the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) announced the launch of a new nationwide Information Literacy Initiative. The multi-partner project provides a website,
<a href="https://www.informationliteracy.gov/"><span style="color:windowtext">InformationLiteracy.gov</span></a>, that offers a wide range of ready-to-use tools and resources for library and museum professionals to engage their communities to find, understand,
evaluate, and share accurate information. The website includes lesson plans and worksheets, community engagement and social media materials, examples of innovative work being done, and suggestions for partnership outreach, an important component for smaller
libraries with limited resources to support financial, health, and digital literacy skills.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Exhibit for Teens Available for Public Libraries
</span></b><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Social pressures, a desire to take risks, insecurities, and many other factors affect a teen’s decision to try illicit drugs and/or continue to experiment with them. Many teens
do not understand the long-term harm these drugs can cause. The consequences of drug use include changes in behavior, academic issues, strained family relationships, depression symptoms, and even suicide risks and loss of interest in the future. Research has
found that teens desire the facts about drugs, without lectures or scare tactics. They are very interested in knowing more, and they need help in staying drug-free.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The DEA Museum has developed a new exhibit, for use in public libraries, to inform young people about drugs. The exhibit addresses teens and younger children by asking, “So
what’s the big deal about drugs?” The exhibit, entitled <b><i>Drugs and You: Use Your Head</i></b><i>,
</i>provides information about specific drugs, addiction, and peer pressure, but goes on to encourage teens to develop dreams for their future, engage in healthy activities, and build positive friendships.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">Drugs and You
</span></i><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">is a “pop up” two-sided, three-dimensional unit/exhibit approximately 8 feet high and 5 feet wide. All exhibit information is presented in a friendly, engaging way that welcomes the
visitor to explore the exhibit in discrete sections. An appealing graphic novel design and informational “bubbles” invite teens to learn through words on the panel and through the content connected to QR codes that are integrated within the design.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">It is recommended that a five-foot circumference surrounding the exhibit be maintained for visitor viewing and engagement. While there are no computers or speakers in the exhibit,
teens/visitors will be viewing videos on their phones or tablets, so audio should be considered when the library location is chosen.
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif">The exhibit is being loaned to libraries at no cost for an agreed upon duration
<b>while supplies are available. </b>The length of time the exhibit will be shown is up to the venue, but a recommended time duration is at least two months. The exhibit is easy to set up and take down by following the included directions. A printed resource
sheet and QR code flyers are also provided to distribute to the public. <b>For more information contact:

This course will equip you with ways to de-escalate conflict in libraries, archives, and museums. This conflict could be between staff as well as between and among those who are using the facilities, attending programs, or visiting our spaces (users). You will
learn to use a framework for connecting and/or intervening in a conflict, with a consideration for the safety of staff and users. Understanding what makes individuals feel safe can vary from person to person. In this course, you will also learn to use de-escalation
tools to enforce policy in proactive and courteous ways and head off conflict.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
