Heppner Gazette-Times, Heppner, Oregon Wednesday, May 5, 2021 -- NINE Oregon Trail Library Dist. receives grant Ione Comm. Church Oregon Trail Library District has been select- ed as one of 300 libraries to participate in Libraries Transforming Communi- ties: Focus on Small and Rural Libraries, an Amer- ican Library Association (ALA) initiative that helps library workers better serve their small and rural com- munities. The competitive award comes with a $3,000 grant that will help the library incorporate STEM concepts into reading and activities at home. “We are so proud to be chosen for this amazing op- portunity,” said Library Di- rector Kathy Street. “This grant will allow our library to get to know our residents better and help us build a happier and healthier com- munity for our families.” As part of the grant, OTLD staff will take an online course in how to lead conversations, a skill vital to library work today. Staff will then host a conversa- tion with residents about the STEM kits and activities. This will help provide in- formation for possible other grants. Building parent knowledge and confidence in STEM areas is a goal of the project. Those interested in get- ting involved or taking part in the conversation should contact Kathy Street at 541-481-3365, kstreet@ otld.org, or visit https:// www.otld.org/ for more information. Since 2014, ALA’s Libraries Transforming Communities initiative has re-imagined the role li- braries play in supporting communities. Libraries of all types have utilized free dialogue and deliberation training and resources to lead community and cam- pus forums; take part in anti-violence activities; provide a space for res- idents to come together and discuss challenging topics; and have productive conversations with civic leaders, library trustees leta Masterson 23.054, 2nd) and staff.

It was the view of the members of the coun- cil that with many of the members and friends of the church already vacci- nated and the opportunity available for others to be vaccinated as well, that the church should shift the responsibility of being safe from COVID-19 from the church to the individual. Each person may determine the degree of risk they wish to take for themselves. The new policy states that all normal church-spon- sored activities will be re- opened and resumed. All individuals are asked to make their own choices concerning the manner in which they wish to protect themselves and participate. As the church returns to normal activity, anyone may still choose to wear masks, meet via ZOOM, or worship via live streaming. The church has developed the capacity to live stream worship during the past year – and will continue to provide this to those who are unable, or do not choose, to attend in person. Anyone not feeling well or those who are sick are asked not to participate in person. Such persons are asked to let the church know that they are ill, so we can be sure to meet their needs with a meal, a ride to the doctor, help them get connected to the live streaming or ZOOM. All those preparing food or doing kitchen clean- up will be asked to wear gloves and masks for these tasks. Those not doing these jobs are asked to remain outside the kitchen area. The church will con- tinue to be proactive in providing fresh air in the building by cracking the windows. The thermostat will be turned up and/or down for comfort on days that are very cold or very hot. Worship at Ione Com- munity Church is at 11 a.m. on Sunday mornings. A Smarter Way to Power Your Home.
