| Recording Log |
|
RFHF participants commit to providing early literacy education activities to 15 families. Recording Logs track progress towards meeting that commitment, and will be used by NPC Research in the evaluation of RFHF. Children's library staff submit these Recording Logs, while the Healthy Start family support workers Recording Logs have been folded into their well established reporting process.
Download, complete, and email the completed Recording Log to Katie Anderson on the first Friday of every month until June 2011.

What is the purpose of this form?
- This form is intended to replace the hard copy form you have been using to record the Reading for Healthy Families (RFHF) curriculum activities you are presenting to parents.
- The original hard copy form was available in your big training binder under “Nuts, Bolts, and Resources.”
- Using this electronic form will help the RFHF project staff more easily compile information from librarians across the state by having all training log sheets in the same format.
Who should use this form?
- All librarians who received the RFHF curriculum training will use this form to record the activities being presented to families.

What are the drop-downs and how do I use them?
