Ethical Considerations: Taking Library Services into Homes
Professional ethical concerns may touch Outreach Services
Librarians more significantly than any other branch of library service.
Outreach librarians enter the homes and the lives of their patrons, and face a
variety of issues not encountered by most library professionals. Ethical
concerns surround our work, and there are few official guidelines for our
decision making. This presentation will explore these ethical concerns, offer
creative solutions, and suggest reasonable boundaries to better serve our
clientele.

This is How We Do It: A Comparative Study of the Bookmobile and Outreach
When the bookmobile drives away the library, it becomes a
mobile extension of the library. Although not confined within walls, we
still check out material, answer questions and face obstacles. Our
frontline encounters vary from stop to stop as we bring books through the front
door of our patrons. See our diverse communities up close and personal
and gain a better understanding of front-line outreach services.

The Wakanheza Project™
Wakanheza is the Dakota Indian word for child;
in English its translation is "Sacred Being.” In Saint Paul and
Ramsey County, and in communities across Minnesota and the United States, the
power of the word Wakanheza has been combined with simple principles and
practices that change the way we act toward children, young people, families
and each other. With an aim to heighten this awareness, the presenter will
offer scenarios of how to deal with conflict every day and how to achieve
conflict resolution.

the use of QR codes can individualize and personalize the patron visit.
This workshop will provide an overview of what Quick Response (QR) Codes are
and their general use. Information and tips will be shared around how QR
Codes can be utilized in a library setting, such as providing background
