Hi Sharon, I reallly don't mean to be rude or challenge you but I would like to know why we have to do all that you reguest below. We keep a record of the children who attend and how many books they read. I just don't get why we have to report this to your office. I know I speak for other libraries in LOGIN. Do you need these numbers for federal funding or a grant? I would really appreciate some feedback from you. I am very short staffed, my children's person is part-time, I am not using Evanced and I will answer your questions below. Just want to know why.

Hi Everyone,

 

To make this a bit clearer.

 

Everyone has to submit information 2 ways.

 

Everyone needs to complete the survey using Survey Monkey because the State Library didn't pay for the program component of Evanced Summer Reader online registration/report program and the question about program statistics is asked in the Survey Monkey survey. Questions 8 - 16 of the survey at http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/878RNK7 pertain to programs.

 

For anyone using Evanced, the rest of the statistics needed can be compiled using the report function of Evanced. You can generate a spreadsheet in Excel to e-mail to me.

 

For anyone not using Evanced, I would like the statistics sent to me via e-mail. I need everyone to submit:

 

# of registered children

# of actual children's participants

# of books read by children (if you used minutes or hours, you can send that but I'd prefer it in # of books if possible)

 

# of children's programs offered   ---------------  found on Survey Monkey survey

# of children's attendees at programs --------- found on Survey Monkey survey

 

# of registered teens

# of actual teens who participated

# of books read by teens (if you used minutes or hours, you can send that but I'd prefer it in # of books if possible)

 

# of teen programs offered ---------- found on Survey Monkey survey

# of teen attendees at programs ----- found on Survey Monkey survey

 

# of registered adults (if you did an adult program)

# of actual adults who participated

# of books read by adults

 

# of adult programs offered specifically for summer reading program ----- found on Survey Monkey survey

# of adults who attended these programs ------- found on Survey Monkey survey

 

I hope this makes it a bit clearer. If you have any questions, just e-mail me at ...@njstatelib.org">sraw...@njstatelib.org.

 

Thank you!
