BlogAThon - Finale
Well, a long, long day. Let's just 'bookend' the event with a modified post announcing my first attempt at Blogathon.
Blogathon began yesterday at 6:00 am. Bloggers from around the world blogged for one day to help charities around the globe. We posted every 30 minutes over a 24 hour period; at one the time just became a blur -know there are extra posts, double posts, probably some within minutes of each other.
For this, we collected sponsorships and pledges. They could be a flat donation, or a certain amount for every hour we managed to stay awake.
It's not too late, go to Blogathon, choose ‘Southern California Library Literacy Network,’ and PLEDGE !
Or you can to go the SCLLN ‘Donations Page’ and send a Donation.
And continue to use GoodSearch: 1000 people @ 2 searches a day = $7,300
In 2006:
8,870 Adult Learners
5,586 Volunteer Tutors
358,604 Hours of Free Tutoring
Families For Literacy program
7,015 children under 5
8,844 children over 5
received 103,709 Free Books
SCLLN thanks you for your support !

Library Economic Value
Worth Their Weight: An Assessment of the Evolving Field of Library ValuationThe Americans for Libraries Council newest report offers researchers and advocates an overview of the cutting-edge field of library valuation, or models for expressing a library's multiple contributions to its community in dollars and cents. Libraries for the Future
Library Use Value Calculator:
What is your library worth to you?
How much would you pay out-of-pocket for your library services?
Use Kern County Library's calculator to find out.
This worksheet was originally provided by the Massachusetts Library Association, then adapted for the web by Chelmsford Public Library. The Maine State Library added extra accessibility coding and reformatting for ease of reading online; feel free to link the calculator where ever your library is. The Maine State Library site shows how the figures were calculated and how to customize and use on any library web site. The spreadsheet requires either Microsoft Excel or an Excel viewer.
