TX-04100-GREEN 6 Narrative 1- Basic Proiect Principle: The grant should work in tandem with existing library technologies and services. The grant should enhance the current services the library provides as well as offer new opportunities for developing additional services. Assuming your Grant Application is successful, please describe how you plan to use your grant to expand or enhance the information services your library currently provides to your community. In a brief narrative, please specifically address the following points: (a) Describe your existing programs and services based on the availability of public access PCs and public access to the Internet In your library. Explain how your grant will expand or enhance these existing services. The Lubbock City -County Library System provides services to 219,411 citizens, with 42% of that number as registered library card holders. Last year, we experienced an increase of 124% on our public Internet terminals from the previous year. There has been a tremendous interest in technology -based library products and the availability of personal computers with Internet access. Our role as the public library is challenged with budget constraints, needing to meet the digital age demands, and yet remain a solid Institution filed with traditional library materials. This grant, if awarded, will enable our libraries to work in tandem with existing library technologies and services. However, it will greatly enhance the ability for patrons to receive hands-on computer usage. We currently house only two Internet accessible PC's per facility (eight total), which creates time restrictions on patrons and a continuous waiting list for usage. Our plans are to place the requested computers in the children's area, which currently none exist Our programs and services are severely limited, simply because of the lack of terminals. By the success of this grant request, we can expand and enhance our services to include: • Access to the children's area for reference materials in homework help and special projects • Promote parent/child teaming time • In some cases, this is the only computer accessibility for children. We want to provide this avenue of teaming for them ■ One branch, located directly across from a junior high school, will create a `homework center' • introduce first time training on a Spanish language terminal, which will fill the gap in our over 26% Latino population • Expanding the access to the Internet and raise the level of reference materials at all facilities • Allow us to become technology centers with marketing advantages, including web design capabilities • Expanded access to our on-line data bases • Help create a more positive vision from the governing bodies of the library system ■ Increased usage by citizens will create more support from our governing bodies (b) Describe any new programs and services you plan to introduce as the result of your grant The new programs and services to be introduced, as a result of this grant, include: • New research centers • Expand children's programs • Upgrade older technology ■ Restore a sense of pride in our libraries • Target young adults to return to their neighborhood library • Appeal to the Adult non-reader for free computer courses • Fill the gap of after-hours schooling as a Learning Center In tandem with this Library Building Grant, the Lubbock Library System is submitting an application for the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation Supplemental Training Lab Grant. If successful, this lab will help facilitate a larger scope of computer literacy throughout the system. Narrative 2 - Need Principle: The Foundation's funding is targeted at those Libraries serving low- income communities, where the need is the greatest and the fewest people have computers and Internet access at home. (Definition: For the purpose of this narrative, consider "need" as directly referring to the - people in your community who are at or below poverty levels, and persons -who are caught in the "digital divide," - this is, those who do not have ready access to personal computers or the Internet.) Using the Free and Reduced School Lunch Program data for your community, please reflect on how this information reflects the overall needs of your community. In a brief narrative (one to two pages in length), please address the following points: (a.) Do you believe these data adequately reflect the overall levels of need in your community in terms of basic demographic measures? If not, please describe how they differ. (b.) Do these data adequately reflect the needs for information services that you perceive in your community? If not, please describe how they differ? (c.) Do you have one or more schools, senior centers, or day care centers in close proximity to your library building(s)? If so, how does this situation affect your services? (d.) Please identify those categories of people in your community who are not current library users. (e.) Given the opportunity of the grant, please describe the types of programs and activities that your library plans for using the grant to address the needs you have identified for public access computing in your community, and for bringing non- users into the library. 7X-04/00-GREEN 7 arrative 2 - Need Principle: The Foundation's funding is targeted at those libraries serving low-income communities, where the need Is the greatest and the fewest people have computers and Internet access at home. Using the Free and Reduced School Lunch Program data for your community, please reflect on how this information reflects the overall needs of your community. In a brief narrative, please address the following points: (a) Do you believe these data adequately reflect the overall levels of need in your community in terms of basic demographic measures? If not, please describe how they differ. This library is committed to serving a significant number of people in our community that have distinct needs for public access to computers. We face challenges to help our low- income residents and we are striving to reach this group to help with their quality of life. Yes, the information on the Free and Reduced School Lunch Program data adequately reflects the overall level of need in our community. Of the 18 schools located nearest the library facilities, the average "free or reduced lunch' population is 80%. The total school district is 64%. (b) Do these data adequately reflect the needs for Information services that your perceive In your community? Yes. The data reflects the need for Information services in the community. In prior library surveys for branch facility studies, a lower educated population exists in this community. The need for educational and technology based services is apparent. (c) Do you have one or more schools, senior centers, or day care centers In close proximity to your library building(s)? if so, how does this situation affect your services? Yes. We have numerous schools, day care centers and a senior citizen center near our library locations. This affects our services by: • collection development ■ hours of operation • programs offered • facility maintenance • staffing requirements ■ community rooms available for public usage (d) .Please identify those categories of people In your community who are not current library users. Those currently not library users are: ■ under educated adults ■ adult non-readers • single parents • home bound citizens ■ minorities • non-English speaking citizens • teenagers • children of non -users (e) Given the opportunity of the grant, please describe the types of programs and activities that your library plans for using the grant to address the needs you have Identified for public access computing In your community, and for bringing non -users Into the library. Programming will include, but not be limited to: • multi -level computer literacy training courses, including children ■ open public use for conducting research, studying tools and writing papers • job seeker;, writing resumes and conducting employment searches • All organizations will be encouraged to use the terminals including the Literacy Coalition, Genealogy Associations, Friends of the Library, Schools, Senior Citizens groups, and the Texas Workforce Commission. ■ these computers will be integrated Into current library programs Narrative 3 - Partnershit�s Principle: Funding should help build partnerships between the Foundation and grant recipients, between grant recipients and their communities, and within the library. (Definition: For the purpose of this narrative, `partnerships" refer to any joint relationships your library has established, or plans to establish, with other organizations or agencies in the community — for example, schools, chambers of commerce, literacy groups, senior citizen groups, local businesses or industries. While these relationships will certainly involve services provided by the library, they should also be characterized by some form of mutual benefit to the library as well. The partnerships that you identify need not be strictly focused on technology, but should serve the purpose of demonstrating the library's abilityto develop similar partnership in support of the grant) (a) Using the table format below as an example, describe the existing community partnerships in which your library currently participates, and the mutual services or resources this partnership provides to each participant. -Orou /A in Partnerslii #: ;Grou /A aBenefrr ;w ,. ,':= _. .:;-dab s Benefit Example: Local Arts Organization Free display of artwork in the Library gets benefit of rotating art exhibit library to bring new users to library; organization teaches two classes per month at no cost to patrons Example.

By `pooling' our resources, the mutually beneficial relationships that we have experienced will continue to accelerate. The newest venture in partnerships Is being conducted through the Library Development Office. Local businesses are donating funds to increase collections in the multimedia sections. They, in turn, receive a highly visible plaque, placed on an end panel. This beneficial partnership is helping their publicity, local funding avenues and It is helping us to redevelop the collections In specific areas. Continued partnering will be enhanced with the Literacy Coalition, West Texas Library System, the Genealogy Association and Friends of the Library. These organizations utilize the main library for office and service space. Future plans are to help broaden their scope of services for their patrons. By increasing the computers in our facilities, we can strengthen our relationships with them. Although we have a strong relationship with the Small Business Administration, our plans are to enhance the seminars by providing the computers they need. Some of their seminars relate directly to computer technology, but without hands-on computer instruction, it has been difficult to teach. This will help facilitate and broaden these sessions. Plans are solidifying with the Senior Citizen Center to establish computer literacy training at the libraries. Complementing their current classes, the library computers will be available for additional training. The current waiting list Is over two years for computer classes at the Senior Center. By providing the library facility and computers for their classes, this will prove to be a win -win situation for both parties. Private -sector Instructors have expressed interest in conducting tutorial sessions for their students. This avenue can be further explored by marketing the availability of computers at the library. By promoting these computers to small groups, tutors and families, the partnering aspect takes on a new meaning for the library. Narrative 4 - Leveraging and Suttainability Principle: Funding should serve as a catalyst for others - government, business, foundations, and individuals - to support the public library as an institution and to make a priority of providing broad public access to information technologies and to encourage long-term local technological and financial sustainability. (Definition: For the purposes of this narrative, `leveraging" means using the opportunity of the grant to encourage organizations or agencies - for example, local government, businesses, foundations, Rotary Clubs - to provide additional funding or in -kind contributions to expand or enhance the capabilities provided by the grant. "Sustainability" addresses the library's plan to build appropriate support for, and maintenance of, the grant equipment and connectivity into its future operating budgets, and to focus any leveraged funds or services toward such support and maintenance over time.

(a) Using the table format as an example, describe your plans for seeking additional funding or in -kind support, from both your traditional as well as alternative funding sources. In making its application, the Lubbock City -County Library has "built in' the additional and in - kind contributions of several of Its partner organizations and govemmental sources. Likewise, it is our intention to expand the capabilities, which the grant provides for leveraging additional resources, as well as sustaining the program into the future. The relationships outlined in the following table represent the types of support presently available, or to be developed in the future.

The Lubbock City -County Library plans to maintain and sustain its equipment and computing and Internet access capabilities provided by the grant As a department of the City of Lubbock, the Library instituted library automation in 1992, with purchase of the Sirs! Unicorn Library Management System. Since that time, it has used the City's "capital projects' process to upgrade and replace the initial computers at the main library (1998-99) and one branch (1999-2000). The five-year capital summary plan cans for replacements of the other two branches in 2001 and 2002. Thus, the Library experiences an orderly, and planned process for sustaining its technology. In addition, however, the Library initiated its Marketing & Development Office in mid -summer, 1999, for the purpose of pursuing grants and other private -fundraising endeavors. This program is already meeting with success, as initial ventures have begun to gamer funds for building multi -media collection assets. in 1997, the Library's Bridweli Endowment was created with approximately $500,000. Distributions in 1999 will fund consultant work for proposed interior renovations of the Central Library, working closely with the new computer lab layout. Fundraising by the Friends of the Library, noted above, add approximately $25,000 to $30,000 annually for Library use. Both the endowment and Friends' income in future years can be applied to the sustaining of the Gates resource; however, the Library's development program is only beginning, and the Library has yet to make application to several significant local foundations. It should be noted that the "digital divide" issue is a front -burner issue by our governing body, the City of Lubbock. In Its'Lubbock City Council Goals/Strategies, March 2000" document, Under the Economic Development issue, Goal 11, Telecommunications, state: Develop and maintain state of the art telecommunication infrastructure for citizentpublic access to government, the intemet, and for business attraction and retention. More specifically, Strategy 2.3 states: Close the "digital divide" by involving Teaming institutions and corporate sponsors It is in the spirit of the "parallel framework' that the Library's application to the Gates Foundation is made.

Address these points in Section 1 of your narrative: (a) Please describe your long-term plans for staff training, and how this Training Lab will assist you In meeting your objectives. Long term goals for staff training is to continue to provide the highest quality of training within our scope of services. We are committed to providing our staff with the constantly changing electronic services that will enable them to assist the patrons in whatever way is needed. This lab will provide opportunity of increased training programs for staffing because of the classroom setting, equipment availability, and the unified training sessions. Increased training programs will be offered as proficiency is acquired, as well as orienting new staff to the library. (b) Please also describe where you would locate the Lab, indicating Its location within the building, and Its accessibility to staff. Also included a floor plan showing the proposed Lab area, its square footage, and Its location within the library building.

Address this point in Section 2 of your narrative: describe your current commitment to patron training In technology and the use of electronic Information sources, and demonstrate how this Training Lab facility will be used to enhance and expand this training. Our current commitment to patron training in technology is on a one-on-one, ■as needed basis' while they are in the library. Although we do conduct more formal training classes for computer literacy, they are limited to small groups. We are limited to two to four patrons in training sessions at a time, simply because of equipment and space in all library locations. The library has access to the databases of the Texts State Library and a Web based catalog. Training is made available to patrons on the same limited access as mentioned above. This lab will help tremendously because it will allow uniform training class to be conducted, scheduled training classes can be held on different topics like: ■ Internet search engines ■ Use of the library on-line catalogs and all electronic data bases from the Texas State Library ■ Software applications on the Gates computers ■ Individualized requested topics from targeted populations ■ Job seekers, building resumes ■ Updating skills for job market ■ Senior Citizens ■ Single parents ■ Children in school projects ■ Business people needing free training courses ■ Surfing the Internet Lab Objective #3 When not used for training purposes, to provide additional public access computing facilities for patrons of the library. Address this point in Section 3 of your narrative: provide a detailed description of how you will use this Training Lab facility for expanded public access computing. This narrative should directly reflect needs of your community as noted In your basic grant application, and how your proposed location of the Lab will best reach those patrons In need. This library is committed to serving a significant number of people in our community with distinct needs for public access to computers. By locating the lab in the central library, we are able to fill those needs in the best way possible. It reaches the largest population, which is also the most under -served group. Expanded public access for computing is essential to the growth of the library system. We must obtain more computers to meet the demands of our patrons. We will provide 40 hours per week of open public access in the lab. Our goal is to offer classes to train patrons to then use the lab computers on their own. Open public access will allow the training to build computer literacy. The identified technology needs of the community are to reach out, provide training and the accessibility to computers. We must provide the available technology to our citizens, in the best way possible. By offering training programs, then allowing them to achieve success on their own, is essential to the lab and the library's success. The lack of equipment has forced us to limit our computing services, however, with the success of this lab grant, we can branch out and provide more services to the public. Lab Objective #4 To provide a training facility that can be used in cooperation with libraries in the Immediate geographical area and with the state library in offering a broad range of training opportunities for the public library community. Address these points In Sections 4 of your narrative: (a) Describe your current participation in regional and statewide continuing education activities. Our involvement includes being a major resource center for the West Texas Library System that provides continuing education for its libraries in the 29 county areas. Many other seminar participants use this resource due to the central location of Lubbock, Texas in the West Texas area. Its easy access to the region is a huge success in continuing education courses. (b) Indicate your willingness to provide on -going access to the Lab as a resource for meeting regional and statewide technology training goals. We are available and happy to provide our facility as a meeting location, specifically with future training in the new computer lab. (c) Describe your plans to work with the State Library, and others within your community as appropriate, to leverage the donation of this Lab to gain on -going support for its continued operation, maintenance, and periodic upgrading. Please be specific as possible, so that the Foundation can assess the potential for the lab to be sustained on an ongoing basis In the future. Leveraging and sustainability are an important part of the Lab. As a department of the City of Lubbock, the Library instituted library automation in 1992, with purchase of the Sirsi Unicorn Library Management System. Since that time, it has used the City's 'capital projects' process to upgrade and replace the initial computers and the main/central library and one branch library. The fire -year capital summary plan calls for replacements of the other two branches in the next two years. Thus the Library experiences an orderly, and planned process for sustaining its technology. In addition, however, the Library initiated its Marketing and Development Office in mid- summer, 1999, for the purpose of pursuing grants and other private -fundraising endeavors. The program is already meeting with success, as initial ventures have begun to gamer funds for building multi -media collection assets. In 1997, the Library's Bridwell Endowment was created with approximately $500,000. Distributions in 1999 will fund consultant work for proposed interior renovations of the central library, working closely with the new computer lab layout. Fundraising by the Friends of the Library, noted above, add approximately $25,000 to $30,000 annually for Library use. Both the endowment and Friends' income in future years can be applied to the sustaining of the Gates resource; however, the Library's development program is only beginning, and the Library has yet to make application to several significant local foundations. It should be noted that the "digital divide" issue Is a front-bumer issue by our governing body, the City of Lubbock. In its °Lubbock City Council Goals/Strategies, March 2000" document, Economic Development Issues Include this statement: 'Develop and maintain state of the art telecommunication infrastructure for citizen/public access to government, the Internet, and for business attraction and retention' More specifically, it states: "Close the digital divide by involving learning Institutions and corporate sponsors' J,gb Objective #5 To assist Foundation staff during the Installation and training phase of the grant Implementation, by providing a location where they can offer training for librarians In various regions of the state. Address this point In Section 5 of your narrative: Indicate your understanding of this purpose, and your commitment to make the Lab available to Foundation staff on a priority basis during the Implementation phase of the grant process. The Lubbock City -County Library System understands the purpose of the Lab is to help Foundation staff hold training sessions for libraries throughout the region. We will make the Lab available on a priority basis for the Foundation at these times and help facilitate in any way possible.
