Subject: [Michlib-l] book title?
Message-ID: <CAL_VNf+0EFJ8-2s1H4u71GD_QFJPb=_snUzHTOR2jRj3JFVPLA@mail.gmail.com>

Hello all,

I have a patron looking for a book that she read as an 8th grader in the
mid-late 60s. "... it was about 2 immigrants, the girls name was Olga, I
think. She dies and a statue shed tears, not sure if that statue was
Mary...."  She said that the book has stayed with her through the years and
she'd like to re-read it, to see how it holds up.

Ideas? Thank you!

Phyllis

Don't forget about the monthly list of library-related webinars available on the Library of Michigan website.  The document is full of FREE webinar content you may find useful.

Each month you can find the document here:  www.michigan.gov/libraryce<http://www.michigan.gov/libraryce>

Scroll down to the Online Education (National) section to find the PDF document for this month or access this month's document directly here:

Highlights this month include:


*         March 5 (11 am -12 pm)  -- Migrating To A New ILS (Nebraska Library Commission)
Your library's out-of-date ILS is running on an old server that needs to be retired. You need to upgrade the ILS, but you don't know where to start. Let me show you how to plan and execute this migration successfully based on how my library did it and the assistance I have provided to numerous other small libraries during their ILS migrations. I will cover the Selection, Preparation, Migration and Follow-up that has proven to be successful for my library and many others when migrating to a new ILS.

*         March 13 (3-4 pm)  -- How to Get Media Coverage for Your Event (Infopeople)
Join veteran newspaper, magazine and TV reporter Barbara Lewis to learn about the best ways to garner publicity for your event. She'll discuss
Top 15 Tips on dealing with the media.

*         March 19 (3-4 pm)  -- The Librarian as the Candidate; or How to Run Against Your Own Library and Win (San Jose State University)
>From the president down to local races, voters are activated by candidates they "know," not platforms or policy statements. For library elections or funding advocacy, your work as a librarian makes you the best kind of candidate. In advocacy, we tend to talk to the public, to funders, and to voters about our institutions. We need to instead introduce you, the professional librarians, as change-agents in your communities who are worth the funding.


*         March 25 (2-3 pm) -- MeLCat Cataloging Workshop (MCLS)
This full-day workshop is a "must have" for current and future MeLCat libraries. You will learn to catalog a number of formats with special emphasis on MeLCat standards to insure MeLCat participant records are successfully loaded into the statewide MeLCat catalog. Emphasis will be placed on the importance of data in the following fields which are part of the matching process MeLCat uses during record loading.


If you have questions about a particular webinar, please contact the organization that is providing the information. There are links to all the organizations along with the listings.

Also, be sure to note the location of the organization to make certain you are checking for the correct time zone.  The items listed in the document are all in Eastern but when you visit an organizations site they may only list their local time.

Most of these are recorded by the entity providing the webinar. Please check their website for details on availability of archived recordings.

If you are attending the upcoming Public Library Association Conference next week in Indianapolis be sure to look for the following sessions on the EDGE Initiative.

Learn more about EDGE here: http://www.libraryedge.org/
Edge: Where People Connect, Communities Achieve
Convention Center - Room: 237-239  - Saturday, 10:30am-11:30am

After two years in development, the Edge Initiative recently launched in January. Join us to celebrate this momentous occasion and learn from your colleagues who have participated in the Edge Initiative and are already seeing benefits. During this session, Edge library leaders will share best practices and lessons learned from completing the Edge assessment, utilizing the tools and resources, and engaging with local and community leaders, stakeholders and staff to achieve community priorities. In addition, you will hear how you can participate in this national initiative to assess your current public technology services and outline actionable steps to make improvements and connect more closely with your community priorities.
Edge is a groundbreaking, first of its kind management and leadership tool, helping libraries create a path for the continuous growth and development of their public technology services.  Through an easy to use suite of tools, Edge supports libraries in making strategic decisions and identifying areas for improvement. The Edge Toolkit gives libraries a look into their local data, from operations to partnerships and programming, to assess how their community is using the technology and how best practices can be put into place to align future growth and services with community priorities. It also provides useful resources to package and showcase the data to other community leaders.
If you have questions about the EDGE program, please feel free to contact me directly.

	Pinckney Library
Message-ID: <e72437624613c953d9639edf491f3379@pinckneylibrary.org>

 

Dear library colleagues, 

we invite you, your colleagues, and
community members to the Pinckney Community Public Library's 4-part
genealogy workshop series entitled: "A Bridge to the Past". This series
starts on Saturday, March 8, 2014 at 10:30am and is open to the public.
Refreshments will be served, but we ask attendees to call the library in
advance to register for each workshop date they are attending so we have
a good count for the handouts that will be shared during each workshop.
The series dates and information are as follows: 

* Saturday, March 8,
2014 at 10:30am--KEEPING UP WITH WHAT'S NEW IN GENEALOGY: Learn about
websites and social media that will help you keep on top of the ever
improving access to digital records coming online each year. 

*
Saturday, April 4, 2014 at 10:30am--USING THE GENEALOGYBANK DATABASE:
Find out how you can use the library's newest database subscription to
search historical newspapers. You'll never know what you'll find-births,
deaths, marriages, criminal activity! Newspapers are one of the best
places to research family events and fill in the details of your
ancestors' lives. 

* Saturday, May 3, 2014 at 10:30am--WHAT ARE
GENEALOGY WEBINARS?: Researching your family history means you'll
probably be exploring areas of the country or world you weren't
expecting. Webinars are a great tool for learning more about your
genealogy without having to leave your home. We will go over the basics
on how to find and participate in them. 

* Saturday, June 14, 2014 at
10:30am--SEEKINGMICHIGAN.ORG: Find out more about your Michigan
ancestors by using the collections available from the Library of
Michigan and the Archives of Michigan. Collections include death
certificates from 1897-1920, state census records from 1884-1894, plat
maps and Civil War records. This is a not-to-be missed resource!


Attendees are encouraged to bring any questions or "brick walls" you
have encountered in your research to each session. There will be time

I'll be curious to see if this will eventually translate into rational library pricing for the RS product. If nothing else a distribution agreement with EBSCO would seem to indicate Rosetta Stone is serious regarding their intentions for the library market this time around. Or at least, as serious as any vendor of any digital product is in this era. Price-wise at present Mango Languages (TLN discounts are available for new Mango Language subscribers, by the way) eats RS's lunch...

?Tis the Season (It?s Budget Time Again!)<http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/censusblog/~3/charskSQ3Ek/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email>

Posted: 05 Mar 2014 09:21 AM PST

[Census Project Co-Director Terri Ann Lowenthal]By Terri Ann Lowenthal

It?s appropriations season! Which wouldn?t merit a chuckle except, doesn?t it seem like appropriations season is year-round now? Maybe it?s just me.

This gives me a chance to sound like a broken record ? not an enviable trait when I am trying to get your attention. But President Obama has unveiled his budget request<http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/budget> for Fiscal Year 2015, and it is my solemn duty as an advocate of all things census to make visions of smartphone-friendly questionnaires, linked government databases and shrinking dollar signs dance in your head.

The Obama Administration requested<http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/budget/fy2015/assets/commerce.pdf> $1.211 billion dollars for the Census Bureau. That?s a tempting pot of gold for lawmakers looking to fund programs that constituents can see and touch. Research and testing for a statistical exercise five years away? Not so exciting.

Still, the Census Bureau needs every penny of its request to keep 2020 Census planning on track and to maintain a robust, comprehensive and user-friendly American Community Survey (ACS). Let?s break this down<http://www.whitehouse.gov/sites/default/files/omb/budget/fy2015/assets/com.html>, shall we?

The FY2015 proposal is $266 million more than the current year discretionary appropriation of $945 million, a 28 percent increase. (The Census Bureau also receives roughly $30 million for two mandatory surveys.) All of the new money is for the Periodic Censuses and Programs account ($961M requested; +269M increase), which includes the 2020 Census and ongoing ACS ($689M requested; +226M increase).

The window of opportunity for 2020 Census research and testing<http://censusprojectblog.org/2014/02/03/putting-2020-census-innovations-to-the-test/> will close in 2015, when the Census Bureau must select a design framework (a decision already a year behind schedule) and begin the second phase of census planning: operational design and systems development. In a related new initiative, the president requested a bump in funding to build an enterprise-wide integrated system for data collection and processing (Data Processing Systems ? $65M requested; +34M increase). Sure would beat having unique systems for each survey and census, don?t you think? And the Census Bureau hopes to resume the Boundary and Annexation Survey<http://www.census.gov/geo/partnerships/bas.html>, suspended this year due to budget cuts. The results come in handy when you want to put all of those enumerated people and houses in the right city, village or town.

Remember congressional angst over the ACS that led to an embarrassing 2012 House vote to eliminate the survey (with no Plan B as to how the government would function without the data)? The Census Bureau must complete a well-timed, comprehensive review of ACS content and methods next year, ahead of a national field test in 2016 and submission of topics to Congress by April 1, 2017.

The Census Bureau needs money for other programs that have been in congressional crosshairs. The 2012 Economic Census is almost history (FY2015 is the last of its six-year cycle), but as Blood, Sweat, and Tears once sang<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kK62tfoCmuQ>, what comes down must go up. Or something like that. Anyway, the end of one six-year quinquennial census cycle is the start of a new one; the $119 million request (+5M increase) will allow the Census Bureau to finish analyzing and disseminating 2012 Economic Census data and start planning for the 2017 canvass of American businesses.

Finally, the president is proposing $248 million for the Census Bureau?s second major account, Salaries and Expenses (S&E), a decrease of $4 million from current year funding. The ongoing activities covered under S&E include vital economic, demographic and social statistics collected through the Current Population Survey, Survey of Income and Program Participation, and other programs.

We?ll have more information about the Census Bureau?s plans for 2015 when the Commerce Department releases detailed budget justifications in a week or two. In the meantime, congressional appropriators are getting down to work. The deadline for submitting testimony<http://appropriations.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=370575> to the House Committee on Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science, and Related Agencies is March 31; the Senate subcommittee deadline<http://www.appropriations.senate.gov/upload/OWT-Guidelines-CJS-FY15.pdf> is April 25. Let?s see if we can make the foundation of our democracy and basis of informed decision-making sound as exciting as we know it is.

*Authors in Chelsea* brings nationally known authors and illustrators to
Chelsea schools, providing children close contact with award-winning
authors and illustrators to explore the art and craft of writing and
illustrating, and encouraging students to read and appreciate literature.

Karen Persello, Head of Youth and Teen Services says, "Thanks to the
generous support of the *Worthington Family Foundation*, more Chelsea
students than ever will be taking part in the school workshops this year,
which will reach more than 850 students in 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th and
6thgrades." The *Friends
of the Chelsea District Library* and the *Chelsea Education
Foundation*also support *Authors
in Chelsea* by funding authors' fees and the purchase of hundreds of books
for participating school classrooms and libraries.

"We greatly appreciate partnering with the Chelsea District Library to
bring an acclaimed author and [her] works to our students," says Nick
Angel, principal of Beach Middle School, where all 6th graders are
reading *Turtle
in Paradise,* by Jennifer L. Holm.

South Meadows Elementary School Principal, Stacie Battaglia states, "*South
Meadows is thrilled to be welcoming author David Lubar to our building for
two days in March as part of our "March is Reading Month" activities. We
feel especially lucky this year as we are expanding the yearly author visit
to two days and two grades! We anticipate that this experience will be both
memorable and educational for our students and we thank the Chelsea
District Library for their efforts in arranging such a great experience for
our kids."*

Library Partners,

The Secretary of State's Office along with the Liquor Control Commission and several other organizations are engaged in a current initiative called 21 to Buy, Not Supply to curb underage drinking by educating the 21 and over crowd about penalties and consequences of selling alcohol to minors.  Though this is not an objective of the Secretary of State's partnership with libraries, it is a public service and I'm hoping you might be willing to post the attached  8 ? by 11 inch flyer during the months of March and April when many college-age students are home.  Your help would be greatly appreciated, as always!

Hello,

My director and I have been invited to present at Career Day at our local middle school at the end of this month.? We are excited to go, but are trying to find some ways to jazz up our presentation and make it more exciting.? Personally, I think what we do at the library is loads of fun, but it isn't always easy to get tweens and teens to believe that.? Anyway, besides just asking questions at the end and rewarding correct answers with candy, we were wondering if anyone else has had success making a similar presentation fun. If so, would you mind sharing how you made your presentation informative, but also entertaining?? The presentation will run between 30-40 minutes.

Feel free to contact me off list.? Thank you in advance for all of your help.

Jennifer

Hello Everyone,

 

On behalf of a half-dozen or so libraries who will be getting together
in a few weeks for an Informational Millage Campaign work session, I am
interested in collecting any promotional materials you may have in
support of a library campaign. We'd like to have a mini PR showcase to
gather and glean best practices for campaign materials. Specifically, I
would love to collect any of the following that you may be willing to
share:

 

*         Direct Mail pieces, 

*         Brochures, flyers or handouts that were made available to the
public at your library, 

*         Outreach displays or materials made available about the
library campaign during community events, 

*         Social media campaign plans, and

*         Speakers' Bureau training materials, including staff and board
members (talking points etc.).

 

Please forward any documentation you'd be willing to share with us, by
sending it to me electronically at hnagel at kdl.org. We are just looking
for ideas/examples to share. Many of the people in attendance have not
participated in an Informational Campaign before. We are hoping to
derive at some best practices using the documentation we can collect. Of
course, we will respect your original content and give due credit. I
would be happy to summarize the results of our work session for
michlib-l if there's interest. 

 

Thank you!

-Heidi

My home printer, a Canon Pixma MP500, died in early December, and I went
with a different brand (plus wireless!) when I replaced it.  I have some
extra ink cartridges that are free to a library or personal home.  They're
not Canon branded or OEM, but worked very well in the MP500.  Use at your
own risk, etc.  There are two of each of the following:


Black - PGI-5BK

Cyan - C008 C (label also says for use with Canon PIXMA iP4200/5200/5200R)

Magenta - C008 M (label also says for use with Canon PIXMA
iP4200/5200/5200R)

Black - C008 B (label also says for use with Canon PIXMA iP4200/5200/5200R)

Yellow - CCL18Y

(It's basically this set:

Merit Network Launches Internet2 NET+ Program for CENIC Members
March 11, 2014

ANN ARBOR, Mich. and ROHNERT PARK, Calif. - Merit Network, Inc. and Internet2 announced today the launch of participation in the Internet2 NET+ Regional Partner Program for members of CENIC, the Corporation for Education Network Initiatives in California. Eligible CENIC Members now have the opportunity to purchase a diverse suite of Internet2 NET+ Services from leading brands at best-in-class pricing through Merit.

CENIC, Merit and Internet2 made the announcement on the campus of Sonoma State University, host of CENIC's 2014 Annual Conference. This comes after Merit became the first Research and Education (R&E) Network to participate in the NET+ Regional Partner Program and offer Internet2 NET+ Services to its Members in Michigan.

The Internet2 NET+ initiative is about creating and sustaining value for the research and educational community in their use of cloud services. By establishing a unified, integrated portfolio of cloud<http://www.internet2.edu/cloud-services/> and trust<http://www.internet2.edu/products-services/trust-identity-middleware/> solutions, blending both commercial services and community offerings, Internet2 makes these available via the advanced Internet2 Network<http://www.internet2.edu/products-services/advanced-networking/>. This allows Internet2 to support an individual to quickly and easily log into a cloud service using their campus's assigned identity using Internet2's Trust and Identity services.

"This partnership serves as a great example for other regionals to work together to extend the Internet2 NET+ program to reach the entire non-profit research and education community," said Shelton Waggener, senior vice president, Internet2. "This arrangement with Merit and CENIC launches a new stage in furthering the vision of the Internet2 community transforming education from kindergarten to higher education."

Through the NET+ Regional Partner Program, select Internet2 NET+ Services, which were previously only available to Internet2 member institutions, are now available to eligible members of participating NET+ Regional Partners, like Merit and CENIC.

"I am proud to announce this innovative partnership between Merit, CENIC and Internet2. It will deliver considerable benefits for CENIC Members, providing access to a broad portfolio of cloud services available to their community at discounted rates. The participation of CENIC will benefit institutions in California and Michigan as well--and potentially many more R&E members nationwide. Leveraging economies of scale is critical to the success of initiatives like the NET+ Regional Partner Program. Merit has the existing infrastructure and resources in place to serve members of other R&E networks. We believe that the more members of the education and non-profit community we can help benefit from this program, the better off we will all be," said Don Welch, president and CEO, Merit Network.

"We at CENIC are pleased and excited to be working with Merit to offer Internet2 NET+ Services to our Community Colleges and the K12 schools," said Louis Fox, president and CEO, CENIC.

A key value Merit brings to the NET+ Regional Partner Program is its existing infrastructure devoted to IT services sales and support. An evolving process, Merit has participated in the development and deployment of services for its Membership for the better part of the past decade. Merit currently has technical and administrative resources internally to support deployment of Internet2 NET+ Services. The more organizations that are able to leverage those resources, the more cost-effective the program will be.

The NET+ Services available through the Regional Partner Program support the teaching, learning, research and operational needs of CENIC and Merit Members. The following services are available today for CENIC and Merit Member educational institutions:
[http://www.merit.edu/dynamic/images/internet2_partner_logos_01.jpg]
These additional NET+ Internet2 services and targeted for future availability to CENIC Merit Members based on expressed interest include:

 *   Splunk


 *   Duracloud


 *   Office 365 Education


 *   Eduroam


 *   BlueJeans


 *   Globus

The NET+ Initiative strives to ensure that all NET+ Services are easily accessible and simple to administer. This is secured through national partnerships with special business terms. Services are turnkey ready, with pre-negotiated SLAs (service level agreements) that save participating institutions administrative time and resources.

With NET+ Services, institutions benefit from connections throughout the education and non-profit community for more efficient, effective solutions. Internet2 NET+ Services are identified, evaluated and vetted by Internet2 member institutions. Each service is backed by an advisory group made up of peer institutions that assist with service implementation, troubleshooting and provide ongoing support.

CENIC Members interested in purchasing services through the Internet2 NET+ Regional Partner Program should contact a member of the Merit Sales Team. Send an email to sales at merit.edu<mailto:sales at merit.edu> or call 734-527-5785.

Books and Collections

*       Public libraries circulated 2.44 billion materials, or 8.1 items circulated per person.

*       While books continue to comprise the majority of the nation's public library collection holdings, collections are shifting from print books to non-print and digital materials.

Public Access Computers

Hello,

My director and I have been invited to present at Career Day at our local middle school at the end of this month.? We are excited to go, but are trying to find some ways to jazz up our presentation and make it more exciting.? Personally, I think what we do at the library is loads of fun, but it isn't always easy to get tweens and teens to believe that.? Anyway, besides just asking questions at the end and rewarding correct answers with candy, we were wondering if anyone else has had success making a similar presentation fun. If so, would you mind sharing how you made your presentation informative, but also entertaining?? The presentation will run between 30-40 minutes.

Feel free to contact me off list.? Thank you in advance for all of your help.

Hello Fellow Librarians,

I am looking for a book that was published in or before 1995 that is full
of short mysteries where the reader is suppose to figure out who did it or
why a certain person is guilty of a crime. The answers to each story are
printed somewhere in the book. I believe the end of each chapter may end
with "Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury it is your job to decide....."

Is anyone familiar with such a book or know of one similar to it?


Thank you.

Sincerely,

Angela Scott

Our current internet circuit contract expires at the end of June, so
we are looking at our options for migrating our internet connectivity
to Charter Business or CenturyLink.  we have heard good things about
Charter: faster bandwith at a much lower cost than we are currently
paying and a relatively painless migration process, but we have not
heard about library experiences with CenturyLink.

Can anyone share their experiences with making a migration to either
company? Are you happy with the speed of the connection? Have you
experienced any significant rate increases? How is customer service?
Any snafus or issues to consider?

Thank you!

the status of penal fines for libraries. Recent MLA news suggests that the
threat was headed off for the time being, but I wanted to verify that. Are
penal fines relatively safe for the coming year, or are does anyone know of
anticipated diversions of fines away from libraries? Thanks much.

Library Director-Ohio Township Public Library System (IN)

 

Welcome to our town-as the next director of the  <http://www.ohio.lib.in.us>
Ohio Township Public Library System. The Library Board of Trustees seeks a
new leader to help continue and enhance the Library's successful role as a
creative, cultural, and collaborative connection in the community.  The
Library director will work strategically with local organizations and
agencies and be responsive to the needs and concerns of staff, patrons and
the community.  Ohio Township Public Library System is an independent
district with a tax rate exclusively dedicated to public library service.
Governed by a seven-member Board of Trustees, the Library staff of 50 serves
the 37,749 citizens in Ohio Township with a $2 million dollar annual budget.
The Library consists of the new Central Library, and two branch facilities:
Chandler, located in the town of Chandler; and Newburgh, located in a 1984
building fronting the Ohio River. The challenge for the next director will
be to forge strong community relationships and partnerships while leading a
motivated staff to further serve the community effectively.

 

 <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohio_Township,_Warrick_County,_Indiana> Ohio
Township, consisting primarily of the cities of Newburgh and Chandler, is
located in southwest Indiana in Warrick County. Nestled against a bend in
the Ohio River, this community has deep historical roots, small town charm,
and a thriving waterfront. While home to interesting shops, quality dining,
and local events and festivals, city amenities are also easily accessible -
Indianapolis, Nashville, St. Louis and Louisville are all within a few
hours' drive. With a quality public school system, the University of
Evansville and University of Southern Indiana, Newburgh also hosts parks,
trails, and golf courses. Several large corporations in the region, such as
Alcoa, Tropicana Entertainment, Vigo Coal, Toyota, and Deaconess Health
System, a low cost of living and a strong agricultural presence contribute
to a high quality of life. For additional information, please visit Ohio
Township Links <http://www.gossagesager.com/OTPLSlinks.htm> .

 

Responsibilities. The Director reports to a seven-member Library Board of
Trustees and works with the Board, staff, and community stakeholders to
establish the strategic vision for the Library aligning the Library's
mission, goals and objectives with the community's needs and priorities.
This is complex executive work which includes planning, directing, managing
and overseeing the activities and operations of the library.  The Director
also works closely with the Board of Library Trustees, local government, and
community agencies and organizations. Too, the Director ensures that local,
state and federal laws, rules and regulations applicable to Indiana
libraries and the by-laws, policies, and directives of the Library Board are
being met.  

 

Qualifications. Minimum qualifications include an ALA-accredited Master's
Degree in Library Science; the ability to obtain and retain an Indiana
Librarian Certificate 2; and a minimum of three years of relevant library
experience which includes supervision of staff. Essential attributes and
skills include: vision, creativity, energy and enthusiasm; superior written
and oral communications skills; demonstrated success in effectively
promoting library services to the community; collaborative and
consensus-building skills; experience in recruiting, mentoring, evaluating
and retaining an excellent staff; and a thorough knowledge of current trends
and "best practices" for library service. Successful experience as a library
director reporting to a governing board is desirable.

 

Compensation.  The starting salary range is $62,000 to $74,000 (with
placement dependent upon experience and qualifications) with an attractive
benefits package.

All,

The new, second season of the Michigan Activity Pass (MAP) program will kick off May 24, 2014. To that end we received some very nice press coverage in the Sunday, March 16, 2014 edition of the Detroit Free Press: 

http://www.freep.com/article/20140316/NEWS05/303160064/Michigan-Activity-pass-program

and

http://www.freep.com/article/20140316/NEWS06/303160058

As the article states, or should state, we have cultural partners "from St. Joseph to Saline to Saginaw to Sault Ste. Marie to South Range." The article should say South Range, not South Ridge :( In the brief period between when the article ran, and the time I am typing these lines, two additional cultural partners have contacted me to make sure they could be included in the MAP program!

You should feel free to share the information in the article with your local media outlets, cultural partners, funding officials, etc. 

Are the patrons at YOUR library ready to "Soar and Explore" with MAP? They will be when you add the www.michiganactivitypass.info link to your library's homepage.

We will have much more to say about MAP in the coming weeks as we count down toward the May 24, 2014 debut of the expanded and enhanced Michigan Activity Pass program, Year 2!

Thank you for your continued support of the MAP program.

Message-ID: <CAOepfaeGt8BrD1j-d0YWYCo_Pu07YxuwvTSwXPgQOQY3E00JTg@mail.gmail.com>

Good afternoon,

My staff and I are stumped, trying to figure out a book that a patron had
read and wants to read again.  She doesn't remember the title, author, or
what the book looked like.  It's a cozy mystery.  Google has been no help,
and it's not on our shelves.
Synopsis: There's a mother that owns an apartment building.  The daughter
forms a book club.  The book club members start dying off.  It might take
place in England.  The daughter's friend falls in love with the policeman
that comes to investigate.
Possibly helpful: It was in large print.

Thank you,

Divorce and Kids
Westland Public Library, Tuesday, Mar. 18, 6:30-8pm
Parents and children are invited to a special screening of the new DVD, "Split: Divorce Through Kids' Eyes" (30 minutes). Healing from a separation and divorce is not simple or quick.  This program will help you see things through the eyes of your kids and help you ease them through their feelings.  Parents and children, ages 4 & up, will view the short DVD together.  Then, children will go to the Activity Room for an art project while parents stay for information and discussion with family therapist, Jenna Zimmerman, LLMFT.  Afterwards, parents and children are invited to enjoy a snack together. Walk-Ins are welcome. www.westlandlibrary.org/events<http://www.westlandlibrary.org/events>

Good afternoon,

My staff and I are stumped, trying to figure out a book that a patron had read and wants to read again. She doesn't remember the title, author, or what the book looked like. It's a cozy mystery. Google has been no help, and it's not on our shelves.
Synopsis: There's a mother that owns an apartment building. The daughter forms a book club. The book club members start dying off. It might take place in England. The daughter's friend falls in love with the policeman that comes to investigate.
Possibly helpful: It was in large print.

Thank you,

It is definitely *Real Murders *by Charlaine Harris. It takes place in
Louisiana but everything else in the description is the same.

The annual Michigan Notable Books Program highlights 20 of the previous year's most engaging books that are set in Michigan or the Great Lakes region, have a Michigan theme or are written by a Michigan native or resident.  The Library of Michigan coordinates a statewide committee of librarians, booksellers, reviewers, historians, writers and editors to review hundreds of titles each year and selects 20 quality titles that best capture Michigan's diverse heritage and have wide public appeal.  For additional information on the 2014 Program, please visit:  www.michigan.gov/notablebooks<http://www.michigan.gov/notablebooks>.

"We are so pleased that Steve Hamilton will join us in honoring the 2014 Michigan Notable Book authors for their outstanding contributions to our state's rich literary tradition" said Carolyn Sparks, Executive Director of the Library of Michigan Foundation. "Steve has a large and enthusiastic following, both nationally and here in Michigan, who will welcome this special opportunity to see him in person and hear his thoughts."

Steve Hamilton was born and raised in Detroit and graduated from the University of Michigan, where he won the prestigious Hopwood Award for fiction.  In 2006, he won the Michigan Author Award for his outstanding body of work.  His novels have won numerous awards and media acclaim beginning with the very first in the Alex McKnight series, A Cold Day in Paradise, which won the Private Eye Writers of America/St. Martin's Press Award for Best First Mystery by an Unpublished Writer.  Once published, it went on to win the MWA Edgar and the PWA Shamus Awards for Best First Novel.  His novel, The Lock Artist, won the 2011 Edgar Award.

Sponsorship and ticket information will soon be available at www.libraryofmichiganfoundation.org.

Message-ID: <32F04D63B66C4546A1D0B6DC909765A561D018E724@HUSKY>

PRESS RELEASE
Comics Legend Art Spiegelman to visit Ypsilanti
Fans of comics, art, and graphic literature should mark their calendars this spring for Art Spiegelman's multimedia presentation, "What the %@$*! Happened to Comics," presented by the Ypsilanti District Library. The event takes place Thursday, April 10 at Pease Auditorium and is expected to draw crowds from throughout southeast Michigan.

As one of the most influential comics artists of our time, Art Spiegelman has taken comics off of the toy shelves and given them a prominent and growing place in literature. His seminal work, Maus, tells the story of his father's experiences as a holocaust survivor, depicting the Jews as mice and the Nazis as cats. Spiegelman has also worked extensively as an illustrator, created dozens of covers for The New Yorker, founded RAW magazine, and published several books including In the Shadow of No Towers, his reaction to the events of September 11.

His multimedia talk will focus on the history of comics and how they influence society. He calls comics "the battlefield that great issues are battled on," and his insightful artwork and ability to discuss serious issues in graphic form have made him a legend in the worlds of both comics and literature. Spiegelman sign books after the presentation, and his books will be available for purchase courtesy of Nicola's Books in Ann Arbor.

"Art Spiegelman's work appeals to so many people-comics fans, historians, kids who read Maus in school, and really anyone who loves art and literature. We are very proud to be able to bring him here" said Lori Coryell, Assistant Director of the Ypsilanti District Library. "Spiegelman himself says that 'comics are a gateway drug to literacy,' and we've seen that to be the case over and over again."

This event is sponsored by Eastern Michigan University's Halle Library and the Friends of the Ypsilanti District Library. YDL works with the Friends and other community organizations to bring a major author to Ypsilanti each year. Mr. Spiegelman's visit also coincides with the library's spring theme: "Our Lives, Our Stories: The Greatest Generation." The spring season will feature a national traveling exhibit focused on the personal stories of members of the WWII generation, of which Maus is a poignant example.

                                                                        # # #

Art Spiegelman's "What the %@$*! Happened to Comics" will take place Thursday, April 10 at 7:00 pm at Pease Auditoruim on EMU Campus. Tickets are $20 for adults or $10 for students, and a limited number of VIP tickets that include a reception with Mr. Spiegelman that evening at 6 pm are available for $50. Tickets go on sale January 24 at EMUTix.com or 734-487-2282.

vast cultural experiences but also more than satisfies the population?s
multiple international palates. With more than 11,000 award winning
restaurants, a wide variety of foods are offered from around the world. With
all that Houston has to offer, it?s no wonder that Houston topped Forbes
Magazine?s 2012 list of

IMLS to Host Meetings with Library Stakeholders to Inform Future Grant Directions

Mark Your Calendar

Washington, DC?Today?s libraries are developing new ways to help their communities maximize educational and economic opportunities. The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS), the primary federal funder of the nation?s 123,000 libraries, is launching a series of meetings to hear from a broad range of stakeholders about future IMLS funding strategies, particularly for the agency?s National Leadership Grant program.  The kickoff event, to be held at the New York Public Library on April 29, will examine how IMLS can best support national digital initiatives.

IMLS Deputy Director for Libraries Maura Marx will lead the series of nationally webcasted meetings with library leaders and other experts. IMLS invites broad participation via the webcasts and social media.  Library professionals and the public are invited to view live webcasts of the meeting and to participate via Twitter at #imlsfocus.

These interactive events will spotlight the importance of strong libraries to benefit all Americans and will explore three areas of funding that align with the agency?s three goals, supporting libraries? role in providing opportunities for lifelong learning, anchors for community engagement, and access to content.

The agency is encouraging potential applicants to engage in and contribute to these discussions.  In the summer, IMLS will release a revised National Leadership Grant application that will reflect the priorities identified during these meetings. IMLS intends to pivot its grant-making strategy to focus on a few specific library challenges with the purpose of making a more significant comprehensive impact in these areas.

During the first meeting at the New York Public Library, participants will examine the ?hubs model? of content aggregation and consider areas for expansion. The day-long meeting will examine the state of video and e-book services, barriers to broad access, challenges and opportunities in digital curation and stewardship, innovation in ?hacking? the library, and digital literacy activities. The discussion will be framed with the goal of identifying concrete insights for funding, future research, and other tangible outcomes.

The topics, locations, and dates for the three meetings follow.

April 29
Goal: Access to Content: National Digital Initiatives
New York Public Library

May 15
Goal: Anchors for Community Engagement:  Learning Spaces in Libraries
San Francisco Public Library

June 3
Goal: Opportunities for Learning: STEM Learning

The IMLS National Leadership Grants for Libraries program invests $11 million annually in projects that improve professional practice with implications far beyond the grantee institutions. The grants help drive innovation and support projects with national impact. This springtime meeting series is designed to capture input from a broad range of library representatives and organizations to help IMLS focus its approach to supporting innovation in the nation?s libraries.

Institute of Museum and Library Services to Hold Public Hearing

?Libraries and Broadband: Urgency and Impact?

Washington, DC?The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) announced today that it is holding a public hearing, ?Libraries and Broadband: Urgency and Impact,? to examine the need for high-speed broadband in America?s libraries. The hearing will take place on April 17, 2014 from 9:30 a.m. ? 11:30 a.m. at the Martin Luther King Memorial Library, 901 G St. NW, Washington, DC 20001. The hearing will be webcast. Details about accessing the webcast will be announced shortly.

The Institute of Museum and Library Services is charged with advising the President and Congress about the library, museum, and information service needs of the American public. The agency is conducting this public hearing to establish a public record on the need for and impact of high-speed broadband connectivity in America?s libraries.

IMLS Director Susan H. Hildreth will chair the hearing along with members of the National Museum Services Board including, Christie Pearson Brandau of Iowa, Charles Benton of Illinois, Winston Tabb of Maryland, and Carla Hayden also of Maryland.

Hildreth remarked, ?This is an opportunity to showcase ideas for streamlining and increasing the efficiency of the E-rate program. We want to hear about how high-speed connections in libraries coupled with library-developed programs and services can be a catalyst for learning and community and economic development.?

The hearing will consist of three panels:

  *   The Vision: What happens when we get it right? This panel will explore innovative practices and partnerships as well as potential solutions that can serve individuals and communities well.
  *   The Data: This panel will explore what we know about broadband connections and services in America?s libraries. What are the metrics that we need to assess whether sufficient connectivity is in place? What are the metrics that can be used to assess success?
  *   The Stakes: What?s at risk? This panel will explore what is at risk when libraries lack sufficient connectivity.

Submit comments to comments at imls.gov<mailto:comments at imls.gov>. Comments received by May 1, 2014 will be included in the record. Each comment must include the author?s name and organizational affiliation, if any.

The hearing is open to the public, subject to space availability. Please RSVP to events at imls.gov<mailto:events at imls.gov>.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Michigan Reads! 2014 Author Tour and Book Announcement
Message-ID: <7c218f9b28bd4274a0b3cd33982b0cbf@BN1PR09MB073.namprd09.prod.outlook.com>

The 2014 Michigan Reads! One State, One Children's Book program is on the way! We are proud to announce that the 2014 Michigan Reads! book will be Acoustic Rooster and His Barnyard Band written by Kwame Alexander and illustrated by Tim Bowers. When a jazz-loving rooster sets his sights on winning a barnyard talent show, he realizes he can't do it as a solo act. He calls on friends and they makes beautiful music as they rock the barnyard!

We are looking for libraries to host the author and illustrator in September and October. Please find the link to the author tour survey below.

https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/2014MIReadsAuthorTour - responses due by April 18th

The publisher is Sleeping Bear Press, and we are pleased to have them partnering with us on program materials. As in previous years, we will be sending a programming guide and kit to all public library locations, K-2 school buildings, Great Start Readiness and Head Start classrooms in mid-August. Our official launch day will be September 8th, in honor of International Literacy Day.

In the next few months, look for a completely revamped Michigan Reads! site with the new programming guide and other materials at www.michigan.gov/michiganreads<http://www.michigan.gov/michiganreads>. For now, you can also find the survey link at the site.  If you would like to be considered for an author visit, please let us hear back from you by April 18th so we can plan the program for the fall.

Landmark Buddhist dictionary will be donated to Michigan's high schools, community colleges and public libraries

ANN ARBOR? University of Michigan professor Donald Lopez spent the past twelve years compiling the most authoritative and wide-ranging reference on Buddhism ever produced in English.

Since the publication of "The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism" last November, Lopez has raised $40,000 to make the book available free of charge to all community colleges, public high schools, and public libraries in Michigan. Approximately 1,000 copies will be distributed for the students and citizens of the state.

With more than 5,000 alphabetical entries totaling over one million words, "The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism" explains the key terms, doctrines, practices, texts, authors, deities, and schools of Buddhism across all of the six major canonical languages and traditions: Sanskrit, Pali, Tibetan, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. It also includes selected terms from Burmese, Khmer, Lao, Mongolian, Newar, Sinhalese, Thai, and Vietnamese. At over one million words and with over five thousand entries, it is the largest and most comprehensive dictionary of Buddhism ever published in a European language.

Lopez is the Arthur E. Link Distinguished University Professor of Buddhist and Tibetan Studies and chair of the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures in U-M's College of Literature, Science, and the Arts.  He co-authored the dictionary with Robert Buswell, Distinguished Professor of Buddhist Studies and director of the Center for Buddhist Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles.

"Buddhism is one of the great religions of the world, with a vast geographical and chronological expanse," Lopez says. "It is also generating great interest in the United States.  Robert Buswell and I wanted to produce a book that provided as much information about Buddhism as we could within the covers of a single book."

Support for the distribution program is being provided by the Office of the President, the Dean of the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts, the Dean of the Rackham School of Graduate Studies, the International Institute, the Nam Center for Korean Studies, the Center for Chinese Studies, the Center for Japanese Studies, and the Center for Southeast Asian Studies.

"As a faculty member at this great public university I feel a responsibility to offer the results of our scholarship to the people of the state of Michigan," Lopez says. "I am grateful to the offices and centers on campus who generously agreed to support this program."

Librarians at Michigan community colleges, public high schools, and public libraries may order a copy by sending their name, mailing address, and phone number to the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures (ALC) at alc-buddhism at umich.edu<mailto:alc-buddhism at umich.edu>.

This is an amazing offer and I would urge all libraries to take advantage of
this generosity. I had the privilege of reviewing the pre-publication
version of this reference book for Library Journal and this was my
conclusion:  Due to the length and breadth of this volume, this will
supersede previously published titles such as the Oxford Dictionary of
Buddhism by Damien Keown (2003). VERDICT: Will appeal to any scholar or
student interested in Buddhism. Both print and e-versions will prove useful
for reference and browsing. Suitable for academic and public libraries.

Landmark Buddhist dictionary will be donated to Michigan's high schools,
community colleges and public libraries

 

ANN ARBOR- University of Michigan professor Donald Lopez spent the past
twelve years compiling the most authoritative and wide-ranging reference on
Buddhism ever produced in English. 

 

Since the publication of "The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism" last
November, Lopez has raised $40,000 to make the book available free of charge
to all community colleges, public high schools, and public libraries in
Michigan. Approximately 1,000 copies will be distributed for the students
and citizens of the state.

 

With more than 5,000 alphabetical entries totaling over one million words,
"The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism" explains the key terms, doctrines,
practices, texts, authors, deities, and schools of Buddhism across all of
the six major canonical languages and traditions: Sanskrit, Pali, Tibetan,
Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. It also includes selected terms from Burmese,
Khmer, Lao, Mongolian, Newar, Sinhalese, Thai, and Vietnamese. At over one
million words and with over five thousand entries, it is the largest and
most comprehensive dictionary of Buddhism ever published in a European
language.

 

Lopez is the Arthur E. Link Distinguished University Professor of Buddhist
and Tibetan Studies and chair of the Department of Asian Languages and
Cultures in U-M's College of Literature, Science, and the Arts.  He
co-authored the dictionary with Robert Buswell, Distinguished Professor of
Buddhist Studies and director of the Center for Buddhist Studies at the
University of California, Los Angeles.

 

"Buddhism is one of the great religions of the world, with a vast
geographical and chronological expanse," Lopez says. "It is also generating
great interest in the United States.  Robert Buswell and I wanted to produce
a book that provided as much information about Buddhism as we could within
the covers of a single book."  

 

Support for the distribution program is being provided by the Office of the
President, the Dean of the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts, the
Dean of the Rackham School of Graduate Studies, the International Institute,
the Nam Center for Korean Studies, the Center for Chinese Studies, the
Center for Japanese Studies, and the Center for Southeast Asian Studies.

 

"As a faculty member at this great public university I feel a responsibility
to offer the results of our scholarship to the people of the state of
Michigan," Lopez says. "I am grateful to the offices and centers on campus
who generously agreed to support this program."

 

Librarians at Michigan community colleges, public high schools, and public
libraries may order a copy by sending their name, mailing address, and phone
number to the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures (ALC) at
alc-buddhism at umich.edu.

We seem to have too many of the 1040EZ Instructions this year.
So, if  there is any library in need of a few extra instructional booklets

 We're passing along about 75. I hate to see them go to recycling!

Just let me know how many you'd like along with your library RIDES code.

The Friends of the Detroit Public Library used book and media sale will be at the main library (5201 Woodward) 10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m., Friday and Saturday, April 4 and 5.

Parking is available in the staff lot off Putnam all day Saturday. Putnam is one block long and one way from Cass to Woodward.

It's a good sale. Lots of books, plus CDs, DVDs, and audio books. Books are always being added from storage, so there's usually still a lot to choose from.

Landmark Buddhist dictionary will be donated to Michigan's high schools, community colleges and public libraries

ANN ARBOR? University of Michigan professor Donald Lopez spent the past twelve years compiling the most authoritative and wide-ranging reference on Buddhism ever produced in English.

Since the publication of "The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism" last November, Lopez has raised $40,000 to make the book available free of charge to all community colleges, public high schools, and public libraries in Michigan. Approximately 1,000 copies will be distributed for the students and citizens of the state.

With more than 5,000 alphabetical entries totaling over one million words, "The Princeton Dictionary of Buddhism" explains the key terms, doctrines, practices, texts, authors, deities, and schools of Buddhism across all of the six major canonical languages and traditions: Sanskrit, Pali, Tibetan, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. It also includes selected terms from Burmese, Khmer, Lao, Mongolian, Newar, Sinhalese, Thai, and Vietnamese. At over one million words and with over five thousand entries, it is the largest and most comprehensive dictionary of Buddhism ever published in a European language.

Lopez is the Arthur E. Link Distinguished University Professor of Buddhist and Tibetan Studies and chair of the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures in U-M's College of Literature, Science, and the Arts.  He co-authored the dictionary with Robert Buswell, Distinguished Professor of Buddhist Studies and director of the Center for Buddhist Studies at the University of California, Los Angeles.

"Buddhism is one of the great religions of the world, with a vast geographical and chronological expanse," Lopez says. "It is also generating great interest in the United States.  Robert Buswell and I wanted to produce a book that provided as much information about Buddhism as we could within the covers of a single book."

Support for the distribution program is being provided by the Office of the President, the Dean of the College of Literature, Science, and the Arts, the Dean of the Rackham School of Graduate Studies, the International Institute, the Nam Center for Korean Studies, the Center for Chinese Studies, the Center for Japanese Studies, and the Center for Southeast Asian Studies.

"As a faculty member at this great public university I feel a responsibility to offer the results of our scholarship to the people of the state of Michigan," Lopez says. "I am grateful to the offices and centers on campus who generously agreed to support this program."

Librarians at Michigan community colleges, public high schools, and public libraries may order a copy by sending their name, mailing address, and phone number to the Department of Asian Languages and Cultures (ALC) at alc-buddhism at umich.edu<mailto:alc-buddhism at umich.edu>.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Michigan Activity Pass (MAP) Year 2 Press Release and
	FAQ's
In-Reply-To: <527305842.5915801.1395679996551.JavaMail.root@tln.lib.mi.us>
Message-ID: <1377463004.6044634.1395774017173.JavaMail.root@tln.lib.mi.us>

All,

In preparation for the launch of MAP Year 2 on May 24, 2014 TLN has created a press release that we encourage you to share with your local media outlets (newspapers, radio, television) as well as with other potential cultural partners. The press release is available by clicking this link:

MAP Press Release: http://tln.lib.mi.us/map/Files/MAP%20Press%20Release%202014.pdf

We have already received some good press coverage for the MAP program. The Detroit Free Press 

http://www.freep.com/article/20140316/NEWS05/303160064/Michigan-Activity-pass-program as well as the Lansing State Journal

http://www.lansingstatejournal.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2014303150044&nclick_check=1 and the Port Huron Times-Herald

http://www.thetimesherald.com/article/20140320/NEWS01/303200018/Check-out-adventure-library?nclick_check=1 have all gotten on board with MAP. We are hoping that, with your help, media outlets in other markets all across Michigan will do so, too.

We've gotten a fair number of MAP-related questions during the past couple of weeks. Here are some answers to the most common questions:

1. How does my library sign up for the MAP program? If you are a public library in Michigan, then you are already signed up for MAP! I have done my best to include every building and every branch of every Michigan public library (about 650 in total). I hope I haven't missed anybody. In the event I have you can help out in this regard, as per point 2 below.

2. What is the url for the Michigan Activity Pass program? www.michiganactivitypass.info This is the link to post to your homepage. Please search for your library name in the My Library Name field at the website. If you don't find it, or if you find it but would like to have the name of your library listed in a different way, please let me know.

3. What is the cost to my library to participate in the Michigan Activity Pass program? There is no cost! MAP is supported in part by the Library of Michigan with federal funds from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The Library Network (TLN) also provides support of and funding for the MAP program.

4. Why am I not seeing the new cultural partners when I do a search on the MAP website? The new venues, including the Michigan Science Center, the Gilmore Car Museum and many others, will be added to the MAP website on May 24, 2014. But, don't forget that there are 62 cultural partners participating in the MAP program right now! 

5. What should I do if I don't find my library when I do a search at the MAP website, per point number 2 above? Contact Jim Flury

6. What should I do if the search result for a cultural venue indicates "No passes available?" Contact Jim Flury

7. Whom should I contact if I or my patrons (or media outlets) have questions about the MAP program that I'm not sure how to answer? 
My contact information is listed below, as well as on the press release. My TLN colleague Brigette Felix can also answer any and all MAP related questions. Brigette's email is bfelix at tln.lib.mi.us

We are in the process of making some upgrades and changes to the MAP website in advance of Year 2 go-live on May 24. Pursuant to that if you encounter any weirdness at all in the MAP website, please contact me.

In the coming weeks we will be updating our MAP promotional material (bookmarks, postes, brochure) for 2014. We will be sure to share that material with you as soon as it is ready.

Thank you for your support of the Michigan Activity Pass program. Let's make Year 2 of MAP an even bigger success!

Sincerely,

Jim Flury

Subject: [Michlib-l] E-Rate technology plans
Message-ID: <cdd0b9d58ae64a47816d59b7016ad49a@BY2PR09MB109.namprd09.prod.outlook.com>

This is a reminder that technology plan requirements for the federal E-Rate program are less restrictive than in years past. If a library only files for E-Rate for Priority One services, such as "Telecommunications Services," including "Telephone Services" and "Internet Access," an updated technology plan does not need to be filed with the Library of Michigan.

A Technology Plan does need to be written, submitted to the State Library, and approved before July 1, 2014 (if your technology plan will expire by then) for the period July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2017 if a library is filing for E-rate Priority Two services, which includes "Internal Connections" and "Basic Maintenance of Internal Connections" and the current approved Technology Plan.

Technology Plans must be accompanied by a Technology Plan Cover Sheet available at: http://www.michigan.gov/erateforlibraries. Information about the required elements of a Technology Plan and additional information about the program can also be found at that Web address.

If you are submitting a plan this year, please plan to email it to Sonya Schryer Norris at norriss2 at michigan.gov<mailto:norriss2 at michigan.gov> by Friday, May 9 to provide sufficient processing time at the Library of Michigan.

Questions regarding how to complete the library's Technology Plan and the evaluation and approval process may be directed to Sonya Schryer Norris at norriss2 at michigan.gov or 1-877-479-0021.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Stale air
Message-ID: <1EA93535F2155C4AAAEBC4AEE113A44804D7A195@Exchange.email.jackson.lib.mi.us>

We would like to tap into your experience. In this very busy winter season, we have found the library atmosphere gets a bit musty, stale, stinky, etc. We do have ceiling fans, but we work in an historic building without an HVAC system so there are restrictions as to what we can do.
Have any of you found a solution that does not involve air fresheners?
Thanks for your help.

Are you interested in responsive web design for your library but don't know where to begin? Be sure to check out "Responsive Web Design--A Paradigm Shift" at MLA's upcoming Technologies & Trends Workshop on Friday, May 16 at Oakland University in Rochester, MI. This session will provide a brief overview of RWD, where it began, what elements comprise it, the importance of RWD on your website and the practicalities of implementing it. Should you hire a vendor? Handle it in-house? Details on the Michigan State University Libraries' implementation of responsive web design using the Drupal Omega theme and solutions adopted to transform an existing, fixed width library web site to a responsive design will also be shared. 


More information and registration can be found on the MLA website at http://www.mla.lib.mi.us/events/workshops/tech .

Subject: [Michlib-l] Stock Price in 1992 Question
Message-ID: <039401cf49ed$a09a5760$e1cf0620$@gmail.com>

Hello-

 

I have a patron who is looking for the stock prices of Sara Lee (SLE) for
11/6/1992 and 12/1/1992. Does anyone know how I might be able to help him
find that? Sara Lee stock no longer exists and another stock exists under
that code so when I attempt to find the price it isn't working.


Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. :) 

 

Thanks,

Hi all,
On Carli's recommendation, we booked Kathleen Marcaccio, the Gone With the
Wind Answer Lady. She spoke at our library today and was wonderful! We only
had 42 people attend (Saturday afternoon at 1...), but it seemed like every
one of them thanked me afterward for bringing her to our library. She has
such a command of an incredible amount of information on Margaret Mitchell,
the writing of the book, the making of the movie, and behind-the-scenes
info and she conveys it all in such an easy-to-listen-to, almost
conversational, way.

Outside the Lines is a weeklong celebration demonstrating the creativity and innovation happening in libraries. Whether your organization is large or small, a school library or a public library, you can participate by creating events that are fun, engaging, and get your local community thinking differently about libraries. Mostly Colorado libraries at this point but it's spreading!: http://getoutsidethelines.org/

The Canton Public Library has run out of 1040 instruction books and is
hoping you can help.  If you much more than you will need, we would be
happy to take the extra off of your hands.  Please respond (off-list) or
email Ellen Robertson (robertsone at cantonpl.org) if you have any to spare.

Thank you!

Subject: [Michlib-l] Health Happens Webinar Archive and Roadmap to Better
	Care
Message-ID: <a7fef73efb9b434cafd36c277fad63f1@BY2PR09MB077.namprd09.prod.outlook.com>

Today marks the final day of open enrollment in the health insurance marketplaces established as part of the Affordable Care Act. Public libraries and their community partners supporting outreach, application, and enrollment efforts for patrons will have opportunities to share best practices and lessons learned with one another over the coming months. The resources below are intended to support that process.

  *   The full, free archive is now available for Health Happens in Libraries: Prioritizing Patron and Partner Engagement<http://wc4.net/t?r=850&c=3782914&l=337856&ctl=4B2E34A:37D71AC352E2C078185B101FA164165295AA7D4C7BFBB2FF&>. This session includes information on strategies and resources for patron and partner engagement from the initial open enrollment period, as well as information on ways that your organization can prioritize future planning for marketplace enrollment activities.

  *   Many consumers newly enrolled in healthcare coverage may benefit from information on how to use it and maintain it most effectively. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) provides guidance for individuals for using insurance and supporting health, via the Roadmap to Better Care and a Healthier You<http://wc4.net/t?r=850&c=3782914&l=337856&ctl=4B2E34B:37D71AC352E2C078185B101FA164165295AA7D4C7BFBB2FF&>.
The Health Happens in Libraries<http://wc4.net/t?r=850&c=3782914&l=337856&ctl=4B2E34C:37D71AC352E2C078185B101FA164165295AA7D4C7BFBB2FF&> team is interested in hearing from Michigan libraries. Do you have any lessons learned from the current enrollment period that we should incorporate in future communications? What questions do you have about planning for future open enrollment periods, or managing patron requests in the interim? Please let us know at the Library of Michigan or let the staff at WebJunction know your thoughts at any time via content at webjunction.org<mailto:content at webjunction.org?subject=Health%20Happens%20in%20Libraries>, or on Twitter by tagging #libs4health.

Thank you for supporting health information in your communities!

Shannon
