Good afternoon,

 

Yesterday we held our first CT Library Census Conversations workshop with
U.S. Census Partner Specialist Eva Bunnell at the Waterford Public Library.
It was a great session with lots of information for libraries and questions
answered.  While the workshop was happening, a new video was just released
on how to complete the questionnaire online:

Questions and Answers for Stakeholders Supporting the 2020 Census (shows
what libraries can and can't do when helping the public)

The https://2020census.gov/ site has lots of fact sheets, videos, posters,
and other outreach materials to special segments of your populations.

Outreach materials can be found at
https://2020census.gov/en/partners/outreach-materials.html including the
following:

Sample questionnaire

We were reminded about a fun picture book called Tricking the Tallyman
<https://cscu-csl-primo.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/permalink/f/1umc6f3/01CSCU_
NETWORK_ALMA7170096860003451>  which is about the first census in 1790.  We
have 2 copies of this book at the Middletown Library Service Center.  

 

If you have not had a chance to sign up for one for one of the CT Library
Census Conversations workshops for library staff yet, please go to the
Continuing Ed calendar at https://cslib.libcal.com/  and sign up.  They are
being held on Tuesdays in January and February at various regions in the
state.


Best,

Gail
