<strong>2008</strong> <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Report</strong>


The <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Baltimore</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Library</strong> mobilizes<br />

resources to support the <strong>Library</strong>’s commitment to a superior<br />

public library system where opportunities <strong>for</strong> literacy, reading<br />

enrichment, and lifelong learning are available to all.


A Message from the <strong>Foundation</strong> President<br />

The <strong>2008</strong> fiscal year will certainly go down in the history books <strong>for</strong><br />

the <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Baltimore</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Library</strong>. After working<br />

<strong>for</strong> three years to see a dream realized, we opened Storyville in<br />

February of <strong>2008</strong>. The 2,240-square-foot, child-sized village<br />

has been alive with activity ever since. With hopes to record<br />

25,000 visits in our first year of operation, we far exceeded our<br />

expectations.<br />

By June 30, <strong>2008</strong> – the end of the current fiscal year and just<br />

four months into Storyville’s run – we had welcomed over 40,000<br />

visitors! Storyville at the Rosedale <strong>Library</strong> has been so successful<br />

that <strong>Baltimore</strong> <strong>County</strong> is looking at building another Storyville on<br />

the west side of the county. A Storyville at the Woodlawn <strong>Library</strong> is<br />

currently in the planning stages. The <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>for</strong> BCPL is proud<br />

to see this concept replicated.<br />

In addition to providing funds to BCPL <strong>for</strong> Storyville, the <strong>Foundation</strong><br />

<strong>for</strong> BCPL also provided support in <strong>2008</strong> <strong>for</strong> the My First <strong>Library</strong><br />

Card campaign by funding the purchase of backpacks that are<br />

given to children the first time they use their card. In fiscal year<br />

<strong>2008</strong>, the My First <strong>Library</strong> Card program recorded 23,052<br />

registrations, a nearly 5 percent increase from FY 2007.<br />

Additionally, over 240,000 items were circulated on My First<br />

<strong>Library</strong> Cards. Those backpacks were put to the test!<br />

We could not effectively support the ef<strong>for</strong>ts of the <strong>Baltimore</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />

<strong>Public</strong> <strong>Library</strong> without our generous donors. We are proud of the<br />

<strong>Foundation</strong>’s work over the past decade – particularly over the past<br />

three years in taking Storyville from a concept to a reality – and we<br />

are continually looking <strong>for</strong> ways to make an even greater impact.<br />

We hope you’ll join us in our ef<strong>for</strong>ts.<br />

A<br />

new town officially opened in February<br />

on the county’s east side. It’s called<br />

Storyville, the colorful, child-sized village<br />

<strong>for</strong> fun and learning, specially designed<br />

and built inside the Rosedale <strong>Library</strong> to<br />

help prepare young children <strong>for</strong> school.<br />

<strong>Baltimore</strong> Sun reporter Laura Barnhardt who toured the<br />

village during a preview rightly dubbed it “a literacy<br />

wonderland,” an insightful and imaginative way to describe<br />

the layout and purpose of this unique, 2,240-squarefoot<br />

townscape of hands-on play stations <strong>for</strong> babies and<br />

preschoolers to explore with grownups at their side.<br />

Designed to simulate life in a small town, up and down<br />

Storyville Lane children and adults together mimic everyday<br />

life in the two-story house, theater, store and post office,<br />

construction site, Chesapeake Bay waterfront, baby garden<br />

and, of course, the library located in the center of town.<br />

Each of the seven themed areas, designed with the ages<br />

and stages of a child’s development and literacy skills<br />

in mind, provides age-appropriate books, materials and<br />

activities that promote language and literacy, as well as<br />

other vital school readiness skills. Parent resource materials<br />

and themed take-home kits are available <strong>for</strong> checkout.<br />

The official opening of Storyville with a ribbon-cutting<br />

ceremony February 7 culminated a dream come true<br />

<strong>for</strong> everyone at the <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>for</strong> BCPL involved in this<br />

ambitious undertaking.<br />

A three-year project, the $700,000 town of Storyville<br />

was designed by the architectural firm of James Bradberry<br />

and Associates, constructed by Lynch Exhibits, and built<br />

with donations to BCPL‘s <strong>Foundation</strong> from private sources,<br />

individual and state funds, and a bond bill grant <strong>for</strong><br />

$250,000. By the end of FY08, Storyville had already<br />

welcomed 40,792 visitors.


Major Initiatives and Programs of the <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>for</strong> BCPL<br />

Storyville is an interactive early<br />

literacy learning center designed<br />

specifically <strong>for</strong> children ages birth to<br />

five and their caregivers. Located in<br />

the Rosedale branch of the <strong>Baltimore</strong><br />

<strong>County</strong> <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Library</strong>, Storyville was<br />

made possible by funds raised by<br />

the <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Baltimore</strong> <strong>County</strong><br />

<strong>Public</strong> <strong>Library</strong>. The 2,240-squarefoot,<br />

child-sized village includes<br />

developmentally appropriate books<br />

and activities <strong>for</strong> children ages birth to<br />

five. The environments and activities in<br />

Storyville are specifically designed <strong>for</strong><br />

caregivers to help their young children<br />

enter school ready to learn.<br />

Read Rover Plus supports BCPL’s<br />

mission to foster a lifelong love<br />

of reading in children. This is<br />

accomplished through monthly visits<br />

to licensed day care providers. Each<br />

month Read Rover Plus staff per<strong>for</strong>m<br />

a story time and help providers to<br />

check out materials. The story time<br />

programs incorporate pre-reading<br />

skills which prepare the children <strong>for</strong><br />

entering school. Also, our storytellers<br />

model successful techniques during the<br />

programs to teach day care providers<br />

important early literacy skills that they<br />

can then share with the children and<br />

their parents. Picture books, teacher<br />

resources, easy nonfiction, concept<br />

books, CDs, DVDs, and storytelling<br />

materials are all available <strong>for</strong> checkout<br />

to further support this goal.<br />

My First <strong>Library</strong> Card is a program<br />

that provides library cards <strong>for</strong> children<br />

ages birth through kindergarten in<br />

all library branches, and through<br />

cooperation with various preschool<br />

programs and <strong>Baltimore</strong> <strong>County</strong> <strong>Public</strong><br />

Schools. The <strong>Foundation</strong> <strong>for</strong> <strong>Baltimore</strong><br />

<strong>County</strong> <strong>Public</strong> <strong>Library</strong> purchases<br />

backpacks that are given to children<br />

the first time they use their card.<br />

Teen Programs at BCPL are designed<br />

to engage teens with their peers<br />

and library staff while providing a<br />

safe environment <strong>for</strong> learning and<br />

socializing. Programs range from<br />

educational – including writing<br />

workshops and tutoring sessions – to<br />

entertaining, from open mic nights to<br />

video game contests.<br />

General <strong>Library</strong> Support allows us to<br />

meet the library needs as they arise.<br />

These donations give the library the<br />

flexibility to respond to emerging<br />

needs that were not identified prior<br />

to the county budget process or to<br />

special opportunities that arise after<br />

the budget year begins.<br />
