Human Rights Commission Board Member Information: Eligible Preference on first choice (If multiple boards are being applied for.) Interests & Experiences Avery C Dettbarn Experience and/or activities which you feel qualify you for this position: In my collegiate career, I have done many activities and had many experiences that qualify me to serve on Iowa City's Human Rights Commission. I am majoring in Political Science and working on a Human Rights Certificate at the University of Iowa, and these two areas of study have given me great experience and perspective about politics and human rights, including how they intersect, and how we can use politics to help promote and protect the rights of people. Specifically, my study in human rights has taught me how to identify human rights violations and how one can promote the protection of human rights in different ways. This combination of Political Science and Human Rights study allows me to have a unique perspective on how to approach the protection of human rights from a political viewpoint, which I know will be useful to me on the commission. Along with this, I am currently an At- Large Senator for the University of Iowa's Undergraduate Student Government, and I know this activity and experience qualify me for the position on the Iowa City's Human Rights Commission. As a senator for USG, I must listen to the concerns and needs of students on campus and work to either draft legislation or advocate for resolutions/legislation to help support students and ensure they are living a safe and happy life on campus. This experience gives me the necessary skills to identify issues constituencies face and how I need to properly approach the situation to ensure I am being empathetic, while also being a strong advocate to address the issue at hand. Another activity that I feel qualifies me for this position is my role as a member and the social media coordinator for the University Democrats at Iowa. Through this organization, members strive to achieve positive social change along with expanding inclusivity and uplifting voices across campus. This membership has given me the experience to work with legislators, governmental candidates, and other organizations to uplift positive social change around campus and ensure that all communities feel welcome on campus. This includes engaging with students to ensure each of their needs are being met and that they feel their human rights are being honored and protected on campus. This position also taught me how to deal with sensitive situations especially with people coming to you with sensitive information. I have learned how to be empathetic and caring to people while also engaging in conversation to learn how to support people while keeping them safe. Some of these changes have included writing letters to legislators about certain bills to protect the rights of LGBTQ+ youth in Iowa and also partnering with cultural organizations around campus to provide safe spaces to marginalized communities on campus and hear what they want to see changed on campus, in Iowa, and around the world. Each of my experiences and activities throughout my life, and especially in College have taught me the necessary tools and skills to be a productive member of the Human Rights Commission. I have learned how to balance many priorities, ensuring I give my all in each thing I do. I have also learned communication skills between executive boards in my organizations, to general members in organizations, and engaging with students and Iowa City residents. I know I also have a strong work ethic, organization skills, and writing and research skills, but I think the quality I have that most sets me apart from my peers is my dedication and passion for advocating and protecting human rights. I am passionate about helping every Iowa City resident feel safe in Iowa City, which begins with ensuring their rights as humans are being protected. Recommending legislation to protect Iowa City's residents' human rights is also something I am very passionate about as I have learned through my studies how legislation can impact human rights. I also really enjoy and am passionate about planning activities such as the safe space on campus for students, and I know this would help me plan Iowa City activities to promote the rights of individuals and eliminate racial, religious, and cultural tensions. I know my passion for human rights, along with my experience with my studies and the skills I have learned through activities gives me the necessary qualities to represent the needs of Iowa City citizens and their needs for protection of human rights on the Iowa City Human Rights Commission. Avery C Dettbarn What is your present knowledge of each advisory board you are interested in? I am currently in a class at the University of Iowa taught by Stefanie Bowers titled Governance and Human Rights, and in this, Stefanie explained Iowa City's Human Rights Commission and some of the issues the commission hears and experiences. Along with this, I have done some research online about the duties and tasks of the Commission, including reading the Human Rights Commission's website on duties and looking at Iowa City's website and the chapter on the Human Rights Commission and the duties, powers, and structure of the commission. I have a good framework of knowledge about the Human Rights Commission, and if appointed as a member of the Commission, I am passionate to learn more about the Commission!

Library, Board of Trustees Board Member Information: Eligible Preference on first choice (If multiple boards are being applied for.) Interests & Experiences Experience and/or activities which you feel qualify you for this position: In 2014, after a 45-year career in education, I retired as associate executive director of School Administrators of Iowa (SAI), a position I had held for eight years. For 18 years prior to that I was a central office administrator in both an Area Education Agency and a local school district. Additional professional experience included 17 years in the Iowa City School District, where I was a teacher, reading specialist, staff development facilitator and elementary school principal. I was an adjunct faculty member at the Harvard Graduate School of Education's Instructional Rounds Institute, an adjunct instructor in the UI Department of Educational Policy and Leadership Studies, an instructor for the Drake University Educational Administration Program, and a supervisor at the UI Children's Reading Clinic. I served on numerous state advisory committees and national task forces and was a member of several professional organizations. I hold degrees from The University of Iowa (BA '68, MA '72 and PhD '86), where I also completed post-doctoral studies. In my work across the state, I had the privilege of observing first-hand the difference between a school staffed by a highly qualified teacher librarian and a school that had either no, or a lesser qualified teacher librarian. It was dramatic. Teacher librarians develop readers, create discerning consumers of information, develop responsible digital citizens, create school-wide collaboration, and enhance student learning across all curricular areas. I fully acknowledge that public libraries are different from school libraries. They have a different purpose, mission and client base. But the impact public libraries can make in patrons' lives and in their lifelong learning can be equally as dramatic. And they both deserve our advocacy and support. In our current political climate, the challenges to libraries, whether public or school, are significant. I was pleased that the ICPL Board issued a statement regarding Intellectual Freedom in response to bills proposed in the Iowa Legislature this year. Additionally, emerging issues such as social media's impact on youth, changing demographics in our community, unpredictable financial resources, and technology needs all must be proactively anticipated. I would welcome the chance to contribute to the ICPL as the organization strives to continue providing robust services and programming in these demanding, yet exciting, times. What is your present knowledge of each advisory board you are interested in? I have read and understand the Library Board's scope of responsibilities and have a general understanding of the relationship between the Library Board and the City of Iowa City governance. I've read the online information regarding recent Library Board agendas, minutes, reports, budget, strategic planning, and policies.

Interests & Experiences Experience and/or activities which you feel qualify you for this position: I have held a library card and found the library to be a valuable resource since I was 5 years old, in each place I have lived since my childhood. I am currently a school psychologist who will soon retire, and I have also taught in higher education as well as held other paid and volunteer positions including a volunteer adult literacy tutor. As an assistant professor at Loras College for 7 years, I led various courses in the teacher preparation program. My highest priority during these years was to help future teachers understand the importance of literacy and the need to support ALL students regardless of academic ability, socioeconomic status, gender, sexual orientation, or any other categorization that society determines. In the 14 years I have served students and families in two of Iowa's Area Education Agencies, in rural and urban areas, I have continually urged families to utilize the many beneficial services provided by their local libraries. I share my positive perspective of reading, books, and libraries with students, especially those with whom I work who have experienced difficulty learning to read; helping them understand that they are capable and can learn in multisensory ways in addition to reading print materials (as they improve their reading skills) is one of my top goals. In our current political climate, I am increasingly concerned about the limiting of access to information in all formats to the citizens of our Nation and State. Being a member of the ICPL Board of Trustees would provide me with additional opportunities to advocate for free and equitable access to information at the local level and perhaps also serve as an avenue to expand my efforts in promoting the indispensability of public libraries now and in the future. I am proud to say that my daughter, Hannah, is a former employee of ICPL and a graduate of the UI Library and Information Science program. Through her work in public libraries in Wisconsin since her graduation, I have developed knowledge of issues public libraries face, innovative programming ideas, and potential opportunities for additional services to benefit children, youth, and adults. What is your present knowledge of each advisory board you are interested in? My understanding is that the Library Board of Trustees plans and directs policy and procedures for the Iowa City Public Library. Funding, goal-setting, and employment decisions are important functions of the Board. Members are appointed for six-year terms. If selected to serve, it is my plan to use my knowledge and experiences as I collaborate with members of the Board, library staff, and community stakeholders to positively impact the future of ICPL.

Interests & Experiences Experience and/or activities which you feel qualify you for this position: I have lived in Iowa City my whole life and so have grown up with the ICPL. I've had a library card for as long as I can remember; my current one still bears my "Anna Moyers" signature from high school. Now, as an adult and with my own family, I have a renewed interest in the Library not only as a resident but also as a mom of an avid reader. We've done it all: Book Babies, summer crafts, the Bookmobile, various storytimes, placing holds, and chatting with the helpful librarians and getting their recommendations. We have a wonderful and robust library that my family has appreciated for years, and I would like to make sure that that continues. I am a lawyer, though I don't practice anymore, and also worked as a trust officer at a local bank. I have continued to serve on other area non-profit boards for almost twenty years. I was on the City's charter review commission about ten years ago. My training as an attorney and my other board and commission experience show that I am qualified to serve on the Library Board of Trustees. I have experience with establishing policies, financial management, and strategic goal-setting in a variety of settings. What is your present knowledge of each advisory board you are interested in? I can't remember a time when I wasn't aware of the Library Board of Trustees. My mom served on the Board of Trustees and was heavily involved with the ICPL in the past, and I've known other trustees as well, following the issues and their board service. I understand the purview of the Board of Trustees, and I also understand that it is an interesting time for libraries. I'm excited for the opportunity to be involved in this way.
