On Thursday, October 27th, the State Library will be hosting an all-day free Human Resources conference taking attendees through the lifecycle of an employee (job application through separation) from a legal perspective. Speakers from Ice Miller, LLP will cover laws and best practices with regard to hiring, wage and hour compliance, medical issues in the work place, employee performance, and more. This conference is for public library directors, trustees, human resources professionals, and supervisors. To register for this event click here.
The
State Library has received the last of the required approvals for the proposed
changes to the certification rule. This means the proposed changes to
the certification rule will take effect January 1, 2017. We again want to
thank the certification task force for all of their hard work and input on the
changes to the certification rule. As a reminder, the public library standards rule
is also changing January 1, 2017. The State Library will provide an opportunity
to learn more about all of the upcoming changes soon. In the meantime, you can
visit the State Library’s Rulemaking Docket by clicking here
to review the “Changes to Public Library Standards” document in the
standards section and the “Summary Changes” document in the
certification section to learn more about the upcoming changes.
This is a free event! Each session (there
will be four sessions) is worth 1 LEU. To receive LEUs, you must register
via email at crward@library.in.gov.

Phase I of SRCS quietly
rolled out for 137 Indiana libraries offering a new avenue for expanding
resource sharing in the state. SRCS, Indiana’s new Statewide Remote
Circulation System allows users to search the combined catalog of over 130
public, academic and special libraries in Indiana. Authorized users can
request select materials online and have them delivered to their local library
where they can check them out.
During SRCS’s first month of
operation, participating patrons and staff placed 3,066 requests.
On December 1, 2016, a 60-day
registration window will open for other libraries to join in with the second
phase of SRCS. There is no cost for the libraries who join SRCS during
this window, however all participants are required to be willing to loan
materials from their collection. They must subscribe to the InfoExpress
courier service, and they must be willing provide the staffing needed to manage
an expected increase in resource sharing.
Everyone is invited to search
this new super catalog at http://SRCS.Library.in.gov.
Users however must be authorized by their home library in order to place
requests in SRCS.
Please direct your questions
about SRCS to SteSchmidt@library.in.gov
