Saranac Public Library upgraded all 8 of our patron computers to Windows 10 back the first of December (I think that was when it was- or the end of November) and we have deep freeze installed as well.? Our tech guy really didn't want to upgrade us but we were having problems with our weekly updates- some weren't able to complete which then caused the computer to into a cycle of constantly trying to update and this made the computer unusable.? After we had problems several times (the last time we only had 2 computers available for patron use), I knew something had to be done.

We have not had any issues at all with Windows 10, Deep Freeze OR with the computers updating.? For us, it has been a great move.

He's not an author (yet), but Michigan artist Randy Asplund would be
worth considering for a festival of this type.  He's an artist who has
deeply researched the work of medieval writing, illustration and book
production, using authentic natural materials to produce gorgeous
illuminated manuscripts and books the same way they were produced in
the middle ages.  He's also done a number of illustrations for Magic:
the Gathering and contemporary book covers, which might appeal to the
non-historical set.  He's an experienced public presenter as well.
Check out his website for more details:

http://www.randyasplund.com/index.html

He's reportedly working on a book about medieval manuscripts and
illumination, which I greatly look forward to.

Matt Faulkner <http://www.mattfaulkner.com/> does a fabulous presentation;
he is an author and illustrator so he can talk about both aspects.  We had
him as a speaker for our Young Authors' Festival, and both children and
adults loved him.  He's very energetic, entertaining, and informative.

Gary Schmidt <http://www.hmhbooks.com/schmidt/> is another excellent
speaker.  He is the author of two Newbery honor books.  He told wonderful
stories, and the adults and children had a great time.

Hello -

There will be time for questions.


Michigan Serial Killers - On February 28, at 6 p.m. meet a few of the more malevolent characters who terrorized the Great Lakes State with crime historian and author Tobin T. Buhk.

Featuring these and other serial killers from Michigan, this program is a must-see for lovers of true crime, as well as history.  The author's presentation will be followed by a meet and greet book sale and signing.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Attendee Registration is Open for 2016 Small and Rural
 Libraries Conference
Message-ID: <BN3PR09MB0402622BCA257CCF03A97314BBDE0@BN3PR09MB0402.namprd09.prod.outlook.com>

We are happy to announce that online registration for attendees is now open for the 2016 Loleta Fyan Small and Rural Libraries Conference.

For information about how to register, please visit http://www.michigan.gov/fyanconference  A link to the online registration can be found on the site and inside the Attendee Information Packet.

We strongly encourage you to read the full Attendee Information Packet before registering online and definitely BEFORE making hotel reservations.

The conference registration is $89 per person. This includes one round-trip ferry ticket on Shepler's Ferry, 5 meals and conference materials.  Our special lodging rate at the Grand Hotel is $129 per room and includes a breakfast buffet.  Please see the hotel reservation form for complete details on lodging.

Some tips:
1.       Please check the Shepler's Ferry Schedule BEFORE you make your travel plans and hotel reservations. The 2016 schedule should be on the Shepler's site soon. You can also find information in the attendee packet.  Check that you will be able to get to the island before making your hotel reservation or you may be subject to a processing fee if dates change.

2.       You will receive a link to a PDF document online that can be used to make your hotel reservation directly with the Grand Hotel. You will only get the link to the hotel reservation form in your confirmation email and confirmation screen upon registration. Please check for this link. You may also call or email us for the link if you have already registered for the event.  The hotel reservation form is hidden and NOT linked from the website.  This rate is only available to registered attendees of our event.

3.       Everyone must check that they either want a meal or don't want a meal in the online registration process. If you are not planning to join us for all meals then check no for the meals you will miss. This helps provide us an accurate account for catering and helps our budget. If you have dietary restrictions you have the opportunity to list them during the registration process under the Special Needs/Requirements area.

4.       There are optional island carriage tours available during the conference. Full details and information on how to order tickets is provided in the Attendee Information Packet. The link will be available in a few days to register for a carriage tour.

5.       A preliminary program showing program titles, dates and times is available on the website.  A full program, with complete descriptions, will be posted later.

6.       Attendee registration closes March 31.  Also, the hotel must receive your reservation form and deposit by this date to guarantee the special rate.

7.       Presenters should have already received their speaker agreements and information. Please use the information provided directly to you as a presenter to make registration and lodging arrangements.

8.       If you have a guest with you that is not attending the event please use the special meal order form so they may join the group for meals. Contact us directly for more details. The meal order form can be found in the Attendee Information Packet.

If you have questions, please don't hesitate to contact us!  We will be sending out more information about the conference throughout the registration period. Exhibitor registration will open later this week.

We look forward to seeing you on Mackinac Island later this year.

Hi Eric,

You are correct. For anyone interested in the specific guidance around this, please see below:


FCC 97-157 section 566



566. Resale. Section 254(h)(3) bars entities that obtain discounts from reselling the discounted services.



Telecommunications services and network capacity provided [to schools or libraries at a discount] may not be sold, resold, or otherwise transferred by such user in consideration for money or any other thing of value.



And then section 567:



567. We agree, however, with the Vermont PSB that the section 254(h)(3) prohibition on resale does not prohibit an eligible entity from charging fees for any services that schools or libraries purchase that are not subject to a universal service discount.  Thus, an eligible school or library may assess computer lab fees to help defray the cost of computers or training fees to help cover the cost of training because these purchases are not subsidized by the universal service support mechanisms. We also observe that, if eligible schools, libraries, or consortia amend their approved service contracts to permit another eligible school or library to share the services for which they have already contracted, it would not constitute prohibited resale, as long as the services used are only discounted by the amount to which the eligible entity actually using the services is entitled.

Kate,

As it was explained to me by an erate consultant a couple years ago at a TLN meeting?

You can instead charge for ?computer use? instead of ?Internet use? to get around this. If you used federal dollars to buy the computers, too, then you can?t charge.

Can you please tell me how much you charge (e.g. $5 for 60 minutes), and what your yearly revenue from those charges are on your budget. And, also what about the staff time involved in monitoring this activity: worth the investment of time?

Dear Minecraft Tech Librarians,
I am confused. I see that some libraries have set up an in-house server. What are the advantages of the in-house server as opposed to just buying a minecraft license for each machine. If I buy 10 licenses at 26.50 that is $265. If I set-up the server the software is $41 and each license is $18 so that is $221.00 plus the cost of our tech person. I am looking for guidance and advice.
Regards,Stephanie DanielsHartford Public Library

I am hoping to gain some insight into salaries and raises, especially for Class 4 libraries. How much an hour do your Library Assistants make? How often do they receive raises? How much more an hour more do they get when they do receive a raise?

Message-ID: <7F33F22CD2BC384F9D80B7B8CB79447D90A635D0@OLSEXMBX.stmarysprep.com>

Hello -

Looking for a bindery to bind just a few, small (6x9) periodicals in a flat glued binding - like a softbound book.  Bessenberg is out - they'll only do a hardbound compilation.  Also, this faculty member won't allow for spiral bound or anything too "catchy" for his library shelf.  His word, not mine, but I take the point - he'd like a binding with some staying power.  I have the files in pdf format.

Any names come to mind?
Many thanks in advance,
Caryn

I was asked to clarify what I meant by Library Assistant. At my Library they are individuals without their MLS that perform "professional" duties. They are in charge of MeL, programming, cataloging and general library tasks (i.e. check in/out, shelving, overdue notices, desk work, etc.).



I hope this helps and thank you to those that have already responded!

Greetings

Doesn't want a hardbound volume, but wants a binding with some staying power? Hmm, this might be a challenge.

I'd suggest trying the AcmeBinding division of the HFGroup.   Their Trade Binding product may be able to provide the desired service. They have a bindery in North Manchester Indiana. http://acmebinding.com/

Wallaceburg Bindery also offers a variety of binding services and while they are based out of Ontario, they have a Michigan office. http://www.wbmbindery.com/

Good luck.

Dear CSLP Member Librarians,

CSLP strives to provide member libraries with the highest quality summer library program manual possible. It is important to us to offer useful formats that are both cost-effective and flexible.

In order to keep our content relevant and available via platforms our members regularly use, we need your input. We know the communities and patrons you serve are diverse in so many ways and we are looking to be responsive to your community's unique composition.

Our plan is to deliver a program manual that is genuinely helpful and regularly consulted. Your honest and open answers to these questions will help us know what our members need to plan and present a successful summer library program. Your response is vital for future planning and production of the manuals.

We estimate the survey will take approximately 15 minutes for Member Librarians. Please respond by Saturday, February 20, 2016.

You can find the survey by visiting https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/CSLPSurvey2016. If you have any questions about the content of the survey or experience any problems with the survey, please contact Matt McLain, mmclain at slcolibrary.org<mailto:mmclain at slcolibrary.org>.

Thank you for your time and attention!

Message-ID: <CAENXJNkFKxHCm=KeTJVTeWEcrxS4+8G80MhmTLobgfVjqft_aQ@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Everyone,

Chelsea District Library is very excited about our recent grant award from
the Michigan Humanities Council to support a WWI Centennial Project. In
addition to an installation around town and local history research and
preservation, we are interested in providing a variety of programming to
commemorate WWI.

I have found a few leads on my own, but I am hoping there is more out there
that I may have missed. I am interested in presenters who can talk about
the war itself or also about life and culture during that time. I already
have a line on some sock machine knitters who can talk about how they were
used to make socks for soldiers during WWI, but other things like that
would also be of interest. I would particularly like to find someone to
present on Rin Tin Tin. WWI reenactors are also needed.

Any information you might have on WWI presenters that you could share would
be greatly appreciated.

Thank,
Keegan

[http://www.ala.org/offices/sites/ala.org.offices/files/content/2016%20MSW%20FB%20Covera.jpg]



There is still time for your library to sign-up and join the 1,000 other libraries across the country that will be providing

financial education programming during Money Smart Week<http://www.moneysmartweek.org/>.



Money Smart Week is a partnership between ALA, the Federal Reserve Bank of Chicago, and other national partners such as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and hundreds of libraries, big and small, of all types.



To participate your library only need to provide one program during the week. There are lots of easy programs to create, such as money focused story times, creating a display of financial resources your library has, or you can participate in some of the national activities such as Geocashe<http://www.moneysmartweekpartners.org/geocache> for academic libraries.



And thanks to the CFPB<http://promotions.usa.gov/cfpblibraries.html> you can order, for free, posters-booksmarks-fliers and other materials to help you promote.  You can also order great resources to provide during Money Smart Week.



If you have any questions about participating please contact Don Wood at ala.org<mailto:Wood at ala.org>



Thanks!

Hello Everyone,

You are invited to join the Lakeland Library Cooperative's Continuing Ed
workshop scheduled for May 20. I have attached the flyer with all the
information you should need and where to register.

Steampunk is a genre that I am not very familiar with and don't know how many
of you are in the same boat. Our presenter is Jessica Trotter from CADL and I
am excited to have her presenting in this area since she is an avid enthusiast
of steampunk!

Registration is open today but don't forget to sign up later if you want to
check the info out first.

Happy reading all:)

Hello everyone,

This is an update to the November 19, 2015 MeL Minute detailing the partnership between Gale Cengage and Google to integrate use of Google in Gale databases.  The Google tools are now available in InfoTrac products such as Kids InfoBits and Opposing Viewpoints in Context, GVRL, and others.  Gale Cengage has created Tip Sheets on Google Drive Integration and Google Classroom Integration which we now link to in the MeL Promotion & Training Gateway<http://mel.org/Promotions> under the Gale classification<http://mel.org/index.php?P=MeLGateways&ParentId=135>.  Each tip sheet provides step-by-step instructions for how to utilize the tools from within Gale databases to share and download content and are presented as PDFs for easy access and local printing.  These two tip sheets are among the over 70 product tip sheets and guides<http://solutions.cengage.com/gale-training/materials/tip-sheets/> provided by Gale which are also linked to on MeL.

MeL Minutes are brought to you by the Library of Michigan.  Want more information on MeL?

Hi Everyone!

 

If anyone has use for some Star Wars supplies. we have a few for sale after
our Mini Golf event:

 

We have a stand-up cardboard Yoda for $25. You pick up or pay postage. He is
a great size for a book display. 

(Picture attached) It is the same Yoda as this listing on Amazon:

&qid=1454681797&sr=8-1&keywords=yoda+cardboard+cutout 

 

We also have some wall decals of C3PO and R2D2 for $5 each. They were stuck
to the wall for mini golf and then we put them back on the decal paper
backing so they can be reused.

We are looking at Lib Guides for our K-12 libraries, but have Sirsi-Dynix Enterprise for our user interface. We are wondering if and how these two products could work together. Does anyone have Enterprise and use Lib Guides as well? If so, please email me off list. Thanks.

I'm still putting together my program on the Hello Girls, General 
Pershing's bilingual phone operators who went to France, but here is 
some of what I've found about the women of southeastern Michigan, 
including the only death abroad. 
<http://www.storytellingresearchlois.com/search/label/Hello%20Girls> I 
will portray Oleda Joure, a Marine City teenager who received special 
permission to enlist.  As she looks back on those days, I can include 
music because she and her brother both were weekend musicians.  He 
entertained the troops, but when she arrived in England and was asked to 
do the same, she had to say she couldn't because she already had taken 
her oath and would be court-martialed.  It was only after the war the 
Girls learned the army considered them contractors not deserving 
benefits.  It took until President Carter to earn their recognition.  In 
the meantime she stayed close to her fellow Hello Girls.

Like the Hello Girls, I'm currently having my uniform made, and am 
nearly ready to promote it, but hope these women intrigue Michiganders.

Good news, a federal court judge today granted a request for a preliminary injunction on PA 269. This means the changes to the Michigan Campaign Finance Act impacting our free speech issues are not immediately enforceable. The new law which bans mailers, media ads or robo calls 60 days before a local ballot question was called unconstitutionally vague by the judge.

Whether this success is repeated with an actual overturning of the legislation remains to be seen. Watch the MLA website for updates.

MICHIGAN HISTORY MAGAZINE ROLLS OUT REDESIGN


 


Lansing, Mich. -- The Historical Society of Michigan (HSM) is pleased to
announce the redesign of its flagship magazine, Michigan History, starting
with the January/February 2016 issue. New and enhanced features, such as
"Made in Michigan" and "Trips by Topic," have been wrapped up in a refreshed
design that make the bi-monthly publication easier for readers to navigate
through the content.

           "We are very excited about the redesign of our flagship
publication," commented publisher Larry J. Wagenaar, who also serves as
Executive Director of the Historical Society of Michigan. "Our redesign
team, led by Michigan History editor Patricia Majher, did an outstanding job
in updating the look and feel of the country's most successful state history
magazine and made it an even more compelling read."

Edited for an audience of popular history enthusiasts, Michigan History
brings to life the exciting stories of Michigan people, places, and events
and their impact on the state, the nation, and the world. 

The updated magazine includes three new features. The first, "Made in
Michigan" highlights great things that originated in the Great Lakes
State-from the first practical highway snowplow and the first professional
hockey league to cat litter, cornflakes and cubicles. "Trips by Topic"
suggests themed tours of Michigan museums-for example, aviation museums,
fishing museums, or Native-American museums-based on HSM's Historic Michigan
Travel Guide. And "Wise Words" contains quotes by Michiganians or about
Michigan on the many topics that have shaped our history. In addition, the
book review section has been expanded to include Michigan history-related
music and movies as well as books. 

The magazine is published six times a year and is available for $24.95 for a
one-year subscription and $41.95 for a two-year subscription. Orders may be
placed by visiting  <http://www.hsmichigan.org/michiganhistory>
www.hsmichigan.org/michiganhistory or by calling (800) 366-3703. Individual
issues may be purchased for $6.95 at all Meijer and Barnes & Noble locations
as well as at many independent bookstores throughout the state.

The Historical Society of Michigan is the state's oldest cultural
organization, founded in 1828 by territorial governor Lewis Cass and
explorer Henry Schoolcraft. A nongovernmental nonprofit, the Society focuses
on publications, conferences, education, awards and recognition programming,
and support for local history organizations to preserve and promote
Michigan's rich history.

Hi,

We used OCI for yearbook conversion.  The process took a little while, but
we shipped them (they paid for the shipping) 20 yearbooks and they did a
great job.  We got back our yearbooks no worse for wear and they sent us
DVDs of the yearbooks.  We are using Sanilac Computer's Digitotes
<https://www.digitaltotes.com/Default.aspx> and had them convert the images
to searchable pdfs.  The end result is on our website
<http://69.16.249.150/~grandlev/local-history/>.

I would definitely recommend both OCI and Sanilac Computers.  I am getting
ready to ship another 20 years of yearbooks.

The yearbooks were gone for about 2 months -- but I did send 20 years.
Time wasn't an issue for us because our historical society has a complete
yearbook set in addition to ours.

If you have more questions, please feel free to email or call me.

thanks, lise

We had Gijsbert "Nick" van Frankenhuyzen at our school a number of years
back and he did a wonderful job with the students (yes, I have 2 hats and
one is at an elementary school library). We had 4th and 5th graders at the
time and they really enjoyed it.  I would highly recommend him for any
presentation. He is a very nice person to work with as well.

Would anyone like Everybody Loves Raymond (DVD) for their collection?  I am discarding seasons 1-9 and will give them to the first library that responds. Keep in mind that their packaging is bulky, each season is pretty wide and will take up a considerate amount of space on your shelves.

Message-ID: <CAOepfacVxLLDSwa0FFenC94nYFpVwJmEQePnJO7oUzz3BdY9Ug@mail.gmail.com>

Good morning,

The Negaunee Public Library serves both the City of Negaunee and Negaunee
Township, and we are located in the Negaunee City Hall.  We are currently
exploring grant opportunities to hopefully install a remote bookdrop in the
township, to increase circulation and better serve the township.  If you
have a large service area, and have a remote bookdrop, would you happen to
have statistics showing a positive trend in patron or circulation numbers
after you added the bookdrop?

Thank you!

Barb,

Would you be willing to share what you hear.  We do not have any policy and
would *never* consider having such a policy, but I would be interested to
hear what other people have to say.

We have a lot of supervised visitations.  The people are often disruptive
and they "make themselves at home" in ways that make us uncomfortable.  But
that is the joy of being a *public* library :)

Hello,
    Quick question on IRS tax forms...so far (as of February 8, 2016)  we have received the 1040A forms and instructions and the 1040EZ instructions (no forms)

Any idea on when the rest of the forms and instructions will be arriving?
What type of forms and instructions do other libraries have?

Two important tax season dates:

April 18, 2016 - The filing deadline for returns for IRS and MI (due to federal holiday.)

Still no word on when the IRS will start shipping forms & instructions.

We now have all the federal forms and instructions we're going to get (1040 forms and inst.,1040A forms and instr., and 1040EZ forms and instr.) so I would imagine you'll be getting the rest of yours soon. (The 1040 instructions and 1040EZ forms just came today).

Hi Barbara --

We don't have a policy regarding supervised visits.  We talked about it
several months ago when it was discussed on MichLib-L previously, but
determined as a public entity they can meet here just like anyone else who
chooses to walk through the door.  As Nancy mentioned they do get a bit
unruly at times but we just address that with our general conduct policy,
not separately.

Good to know that we are all in the same boat :]

So far responses have varied from:  getting all taxes forms and instructions, including Michigan booklets to just getting federal instructions booklets.   Answers have been all over the map.

As for as, today we received just the 1040 instructions...still no forms for 1040 EZ and 1040.

It's been very confusing for our patrons, because usually by this time we have all forms and instructions that they need to get their taxes done.  We have been printing out a number of forms, but charging our normal fee of 15 cents a page.

We are doing the same thing this year that we did last year.  We have a laptop set up as a kiosk near the forms with access to the different tax locations, and they can print the forms they need to our copier.  We ask that they pay for any copies over 10 that they make, but the first 10 pages are free.  This worked pretty well last year (First year we did it, so yes, there were bumps and bruises) and there have been patrons asking for it this year.

Robin Hastings, Director of Technology Services for Northeast Kansas Library System (NEKLS), will review the basics of what linked data is, what the potential of linked data can be and how libraries (and other organizations) are using it right now to make information more easily accessible on the web.  Attendees will also learn what the Library of Congress is doing with BIBFRAME and how projects like the Open Library are making use of linked data to extend their reach and make their information reusable.
To register for this free webinar from the Nebraska Library Commission visit,

Subject: CSLP 2018 Artist Suggestions needed


It?s that time of year again! CSLP is looking for suggestions of illustrators to provide our 2018 artwork for the theme of music.

Please forward the below survey on to your librarians and ask them to submit suggestions. We would love to hear from all of our members!

Is there an illustrator that depicted the theme of music in a book that you think would make a fantastic choice?
Please consider that CSLP does have a budget when working with an illustrator to provide our summer reading artwork. That said, please keep in mind that while it would be fantastic to work with someone like Mo Willems, our budget simply does not make him a realistic suggestion.

The survey link can be found at:   https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2018ArtistSuggestions

Please submit suggestions by Friday, Feburary 19th.
Thank you for your time!

Hi!

 

I would like to book David Critchlow of the Alligator Sanctuary from Athens
this summer.  

 

He said this in his email.  "I will bring about 10 different types of
reptiles and amphibians including 2-3 alligators (all taped and secure) a
large tortoise, a lizard, 2 snakes and frogs/toads.  I will also give away
free admission tickets for children to attend our zoo located in Athens."

  

Is there anyone who would like to piggyback on a Tuesday in July?  The
reduced rate would be $289 for each of us.  

 

Please let me know as soon as possible.  

 

Thanks!

Lynn

Hello all!

I've never tried using the Michlib-L email blast so let's see how this
works. Roscommon has a small library branch that needs new bookcases. If
anyone has any extra bookcases, I need some that are 7 feet tall, 4 feet
wide, and 1 foot deep or close to those measurements I'm not a carpenter
so that might be the incorrect language. It can be metal or wood, no
preference.

I will come get them and I can pay if that helps.

Casey

Yes, Addison Twp. Library, Addi-43, could use a few 1040s and 1040 EZ with Instructions if you can spare a stack.  I contacted the IRS and was told they will not open new accounts for libraries that are not receiving tax forms. Many thanks!

A sad statistic to share: approximately 1 in 10 children are sexually
abused before their 18th birthday.  In April of 2015, I was honored to
collaborate with the Traverse Bay Children's Advocacy Center to present a
storytime for child sexual awareness.  To put on this special program we
brought in storyteller Jenifer Strauss and musician Miriam Pico.  What came
out of the collaboration was so great that we all agreed this program needs
to be made available to libraries across Michigan.  Attached is the flyer
(details below, too) and I hope your library will consider booking this
very special storytime.  Notes on how to plan, promote and present this
program in your community are available upon inquiry.

*My Body Belongs to Me: *
Stories, songs, and movement empowering kids to be healthy, brave and
strong, &
speak up when something is wrong!

You are invited to join Storyteller, Jenifer Strauss and Singer/Songwriter,
Miriam Pico in a lively program for kids, families and caregivers with an
important message about prevention of child sexual abuse.

Message-ID: <8EE24ACF5C2B5945AF776E39181A0095495CB13B@EXCH.wb.local>

Dear Colleagues,

I am writing on behalf of the LLAMA Mentoring Program. As a division of ALA, the Library Leadership and Management Association advances outstanding leadership and management practices in library and information services by encouraging and nurturing individual excellence in current and aspiring library leaders.

The mentoring program pairs librarians with leadership experience with librarians who are interested in becoming leaders.  The program runs from the ALA Annual Convention in June to April 30 of the following year.

For mentors, it is a chance to pass on your experience and knowledge by working one-on-one with an enthusiastic colleague who is ready to learn and benefit from your experience.

For mentees, it is a great opportunity to learn from an accomplished leader how to:
* explore your leadership potential
* demonstrate leadership in your current position
* acquire the skills, attitudes and relationships that you will need to move into leadership roles.

Participants must be ALA and LLAMA members as of the start of the program, and must either attend the Mentor/Mentee orientation at ALA Annual or be able to participate in a virtual orientation at a time to be determined.

Your involvement and activity within LLAMA means you would have a lot to offer a newer librarian.  I'm asking you to consider signing up as Mentor.  We received over 60 applications from mentees, but only 30 mentor applications. If you are willing to participate, please sign up using this form:  https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/5WWVLMR<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.surveymonkey.com_r_5WWVLMR&d=BQMFAw&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=4bodCdozpnYAas_zf3v4no2fl4PTAdlBsPn94OkSEk8&m=U0y8WJJ_NUYqPyu3GL0RlDK0Ql7gfsd6ll8h1XCksrQ&s=aAy8sZBa1jlN_Qiwpg2fjnygK2OGhe1j1aINgG8axSI&e=>.  Your response by Tuesday, February 16 would be very much appreciated.

If you have any questions you can reply directly to this email.

Thank you for considering this opportunity!

A few questions have come through off-list so I thought I'd share here:
Fees are $400 per program. Mileage of $10 an hour added outside of 100 mile
radius from Traverse City.
Age range: 3-8 years of age (I billed it as a family program).

Purposeful Innovation: Idea Engagement for Libraries
Tuesday, March 15, 2016 ? 3 pm Eastern ? 60 min
Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/purposeful-innovation-idea-management-for-libraries.html

Sooner or later, all libraries need to realign or reinvent services and workflows to respond to shifting community needs, but there?s often a disconnect between ideas generated by staff on the front lines and the decisions made by management. Imagine a library where all staff feel empowered to submit, vote and comment on service and workflow ideas. To reach this ideal, Sno-Isle Libraries (WA) has embraced the idea management process in order to consider and approve ideas holistically, for cost, benefit and time, and before a heavy investment of resources. Sno-Isle Libraries realized that building a collaborative, transparent framework to support workflows, change, ideas and community engagement is essential to creating a culture of purposeful innovation. During this webinar, you?ll gain a clear understanding of the "what" and "why" of idea management, hear lessons learned, and leave with tools to empower staff to lead from any position by sharing their ideas.

Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/incubate-creativity-at-your-library.html

The Library as Incubator Project<http://www.webjunction.org/news/webjunction/library-as-incubator-project.html> (LAIP) promotes the library as a place to connect and create. LAIP has networked with hundreds of libraries who are working with their communities to incubate and inspire creative projects. They have talked with scores of artists, writers, makers, performers, and other creatives about how they use their libraries and how their libraries can serve them even better. In this webinar, LAIP shares program and project ideas, resources and case studies to turn your library into a creativity incubator. Take the workable, scalable programming and resource framework from LAIP and become a hub for supporting creatives of all types and skill levels in your community.

Presented by: Laura Damon-Moore, Co-founder and Editor, Library as Incubator Project, and Community Engagement Librarian, Madison Public Library

We purchased the JFJ Easy Pro <http://jfjeasypro.com/shop/product/easy-pro>  several months ago and have been very happy with it. We use it for roughly 10 to 15 discs per week, and it comes with different levels of buffing and sanding that have come in useful.

Hi,

Could anyone recommend a DVD/CD cleaner or system? We are a small library and I would like to purchase a system if not too expensive to clean our discs.

 

Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone,

My board is requesting that we look into doing an Amnesty Month after
hearing how popular Chicago Public Library's recent Amnesty Month has
been.  For those of you that do an Amnesty Month, or have in the past, do
you have any suggestions or limitations you've put on your Amnesty that you
could share with me while we consider doing one here?

Thanks!

Yes, Addison Twp. Library, Addi-43, could use a few 1040s and 1040 EZ with Instructions if you can spare a stack.  I contacted the IRS and was told they will not open new accounts for libraries that are not receiving tax forms. Many thanks!

Hi, MichLib,

Please reply OFFLIST to this at kschwartz at fpl.info.

I am looking for referrals to fundraising consultants who have worked on library or library foundation capital campaigns, annual campaigns, and/or have consulted in shaping some aspect of fundraising (e.g., a foundation startup) for libraries.

If others are interested, I will be happy to compile the answers but would prefer to work offlist. Thanks much!

Kay

Subject: [Michlib-l] RFID Conversion Project
Message-ID: <8EE24ACF5C2B5945AF776E39181A0095495CCAE1@EXCH.wb.local>

Hello Everyone,

My library is currently doing a comprehensive weed in preparation for a conversion to RFID tags. As we get closer to the actual conversion process we are starting to plan, but really have no info from others yet about what process other libraries have used. If you can offer assistance, it will be greatly appreciated. Fyi, we will use 2 3M/Bibliotheca conversion stations.


We are envisioning

1.    We have 80,000 physical items. We plan to have 2 carts for 1 month each (at $500/mo/cart we want to move quickly/efficiently, yet accurately.

a.    1 cart in Adults; 1 cart in Children's.

2.    Teams of 2, using the cart as they go through the aisles. Pull, tag, scan, reshelve. Repeat.

3.    Start at 000 and go straight through to 999. Then A-Z. Then A/V and magazines.

4.    Keep a list that is updated with each shift as to what is done.

a.    To try to capture the out items that are in the ranges as we are doing them.

b.    So once the 010s are completed, as checked out items in that range come in they are set aside for tagging.

c.    This is the step that causes the most angst about doing it "right."



Questions

5.    Trying to figure out an average per hour rate, to calculate how many hours/people are needed and then develop a schedule.

6.    In your experience, how many items per hour, on average, was your team able to convert?

7.    How many items total did your library convert and how many hours/days did it take?

8.    Did you utilize trained staff, volunteers or both? How many total?

9.    Did you do the tagging in pairs and how many hours did they work at a time. I figure no one wants to tag for more than 4 hours at once. Is 1 or 2 hours a better max, or are people able to handle 3-4 hours? I figure it's like shelf-reading, a brain can handle repetitive tasks for only so long...

10. What unknown do I not know to ask about?


Thank you and have a wonderful day,
Nyama

This event is open to the public. If you are a librarian, a trustee, or simply a library fan, you are welcome to join us!

Participants at National Library Legislative Day are also able to take advantage of a discounted room rate by booking at the Liaison (for the nights of May 1st and 2nd).

Message-ID: <BLUPR09MB0802784BA0C1373B587FEF1EC0A80@BLUPR09MB0802.namprd09.prod.outlook.com>

Hello all,

A patron's question this week prompted a discussion with the Gale Chilton's<http://galesupport.com/chilton_branding/splashPage.php?loc=lom_accessmich> Product Manager as to whether the content in Chilton's<http://galesupport.com/chilton_branding/splashPage.php?loc=lom_accessmich> changed at the time the interface was redesigned.  This patron reported that repair information he had accessed for his vehicle last November didn't appear to be available anymore.  The only information he was seeing now for his vehicle was the Bulletins/Recalls.  It turns out that the only changes to the content that users may be experiencing is where they find it; no content has been deleted.  Some manufacturers (GMC for one) now show the full coverage when available (Repair, Labor Estimating, Bulletins/Recalls, and Maintenance) for sub-models under the broad model name. For example, GMC Envoy XUV and XL sub-models information can be found under GMC Envoy.  Any differences for the sub-models is broken out in the broad model coverage. The sub-models may still be listed but contain only Bulletins/Recalls information, as the patron discovered. Chilton's<http://galesupport.com/chilton_branding/splashPage.php?loc=lom_accessmich> continues to be a very popular and unique MeL database and this tip may enable libraries and patrons to more easily find the quality vehicle information they've come to rely on.  Michigan residents or Michigan library access only.

MeL Minutes are brought to you by the Library of Michigan.  Want more information on MeL?  Stay tuned for next week's MeL Minute available on many Michigan library listservs, email us at contact at mel.org<mailto:contact at mel.org> or visit mel.org<http://mel.org/>.  We encourage you to share MeL Minutes with your public service colleagues.

Registration is now open for the next MCLS MeL Databases training webinar. Over a quarter million Michigan residents speak Spanish. MeL is there to help serve their information needs. Join us on February 24, at 9:30 am, for a brief, half hour free webinar focused on MeL resources for Spanish speakers<http://mcls.org/training-events/training-events-list/training-event/?ref_cID=198&bID=0&dd_asId=3344>.

Hi, all!My team is doing some research for future initiatives and would so welcome your suggestions and recommendations for apps and other technologies that integrate with library services in these areas:?- online catalogue?- mobile access?- social media?- that other thing you're thinking of that I'm forgetting (wild card!)
We are particularly, but not exclusively, interested in products that will work well within a consortium environment.
Thank you so much!Hope NobelDirectorTamarack District LibraryLakeview, MI

They sent us the machine (ECO Pro, which is what we were looking at
purchasing as it's a fabulous machine) and the supplies when we get low.
We pay .25 cents per disc.  They're good to work with, too.

Hope that helps :)

Happy Valentine's Day Everyone!

My question is for those libraries who are PA 164 libraries, not district
libraries, or other single municipality libraries.

Are library employees covered as employees of your municipality (e.g.
Township), or is the Library the employer of record?

Thanks again.  I do SO appreciate those who take the time to help me as we
move through this re-organization process here in Leland.

Hello again?my apologies, it occurred to me after I forwarded the EBSCO email that it was not as straightforward as it should be!?  You need to access the MeL eBook (EBSCO) collection from the databases A-Z list: http://mel.org/databases.  Don?t click on the link in the EBSCO email.  I think I may have misunderstood the email from EBSCO, so my apologies!  The MeL eBooks from EBSCO, however, are available at no cost to all MI residents as is all the other subscription content.

Clicking on the link in the EBSCO email will only get you a webpage on which to sign up for more info., so if you don?t want anyone to contact you, don?t fill it out ;-)

Once again, sorry for the confusion ?

|   Hi! I'm a library board member (and retired librarian) in Chesterfield Twp. I'm checking to see about employee education. If your library has a program to pay tuition for employee's classes, and the employer pays for the class, and then the employee quits after a year (for instance), does your library have the employee pay them back for the class? If so, how much? Is there a repayment schedule?Thanks!Alan Naldrett

Subject: [Michlib-l] Allied Media Conference Radical Librarianship Track
 Call for Proposals
Message-ID: <32F04D63B66C4546A1D0B6DC909765A57673378706@HUSKY>

Hello fellow librarians!

This year, I, along with Katie Dover-Taylor (William P Faust Public Library of Westland), Andrea Perez (William P Faust Public Library of Westland), Heidy Berthoud (Vassar College), and Celeste ?-Re (University of South Carolina) are coordinating the Radical Librarianship Track as part of the 18th annual Allied Media Conference, taking place June 16-19th, 2016, and we are putting out a call for proposals. The deadline to submit is March 11th @ midnight ET

In case you are unfamiliar with the conference, this is a great video about the Allied Media Conference.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLRGNfsyQ1DegkpB37gYNaspJHtPh3t0um&v=orOxQ0d7eOU

Last year we featured, among others, sessions about starting a seed library, starting your own maker space with just a bit of money, how to help those most in need, creating safer spaces through zine libraries, starting community based archives, and a presentation from the Free Black Woman's Library

The Radical Librarianship track seeks collaborators to shape our discussions at the 2016 Allied Media Conference (AMC) on June 16-19, 2016 in Detroit, Michigan. Libraries and archives are more than places for collecting and storing books and artifacts. Libraries can be living, transformative spaces where artists, educators, technologists, and organizers convene to access, document, share, organize, and find solutions to issues that impact their communities.

We welcome proposals for sessions that will be accessible to participants of all ages and backgrounds, and interpret the work of libraries and archives through the lens of media-based organizing.

We are especially interested in sessions that:
Challenge traditional library and archive structures, institutions, and organizations.
Discuss best practices for community-based organizations that provide books, technology or internet access, creative materials, or collaborative opportunities centering people of color, queer and gender non-conforming folks, disabled people, incarcerated people, and undocumented people.
Consider the role of librarians and archivists in strengthening the knowledge, culture, and collective memory of communities impacted by chronic divestment and gentrification.
Address racism, white supremacy or issues of diversity and inclusion in libraries, archives, or museums.
Discuss mental health and self-care for workers in libraries, archives, or museums.
Build on discussions or lessons from the Radical Librarianship track at AMC2015 or previous Allied Media Conferences.

Beyond the themes outlined above, if the idea of Radical Librarianship resonates with you, we'd love to hear from you.

The deadline to submit is March 11th @ midnight ET. If you are interested in proposing a session, please follow this link.
https://www.alliedmedia.org/news/propose-session-amc2016

For questions about the Radical Librarianship track, or to discuss session ideas with our coordinating team, please contact Katie Dover-Taylor at dovertaylor at gmail.com<mailto:dovertaylor at gmail.com>

For anyone thinking about it, we love Critchlow Alligator Sanctuary.  He's
local for us so we have him every year or two, and the kids and their
families just love him.  He always brings quite a few animals, and his
program was our most well-attended program this past year.

He's also really good with the kids, and great at crowd control.  Well,
well worth the money!

Is there anyone who would like to piggyback on a Tuesday in July?  The reduced rate would be $289 for each of us.

Hello.  We are once again turning to libraries for a book suggestion that Secretary of State Ruth Johnson can read to younger school age kids (1st, 2nd, 3rd grade) during March is Reading Month.  We're hoping for a book on voting or elections. Any ideas?

fyi, probably a good time to withdraw this book from your collection, if you've not already done so. I don't know how/if the refund applies to libraries. Contact your friendly neighborhood book wholesaler to find out, assuming they still have a record of your order.

Hi all,

Just a quick note to apologize for the confusion regarding today's webinar
on Legal Issues in Children's Services, sponsored by the Children's & Teen
Services Committee at the Woodlands Library Cooperative.  I posted the
registration information and the flyer to the list from the wrong email
address last week, which explains why it sat for a few days and then showed
up in everyone's inbox today, right in the middle of the webinar!  I am
happy to report that I have updated my email address with MICHLIB, and even
better, the webinar will be archived and available online. I will share
that link with everyone once it is made available.


Have a great day,
kate

I'm on the planning committee for this conference and would be thrilled to see some of my Michigan colleagues participate in this event.

Save the Date - Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference, August 9-11, 2016

The 2nd Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference (UMDCC) will take place August 9-11th at St. Ambrose University<http://www.sau.edu/> in Davenport, Iowa (Quad Cities).

The UMDCC provides opportunities for digital collections creators and curators in the region and beyond to network, share best practices, participate in hands-on workshops, and learn from leaders in digital cultural heritage.

The conference will be held jointly with the 2016 CONTENTdm User Group Meeting, sponsored by OCLC, on August 10-11th.

Look for a call for session proposals in March. Registration will open in early summer.
The 2016 Upper Midwest Digital Collections Conference is organized by Minitex, WiLS, and RAILS (Reaching Across Illinois Library System) and hosted by St. Ambrose University Library.

Keynote Speaker Trevor Owens

We're excited to announce that Trevor Owens of the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) will kick off the UMDCC conference on August 9th as keynote speaker! Trevor will introduce the National Digital Platform<https://www.imls.gov/issues/national-issues/national-digital-platform> priority, discuss how the cultural heritage community can engage with and connect local projects to it, and share updates on the future of the initiative.

About Trevor Owens
Trevor is the Senior Program Officer responsible for the development of the National Digital Platform<https://www.imls.gov/issues/national-issues/national-digital-platform> portfolio for the Office of Library Services at IMLS. He steers an overall strategy of research, grant making, communications and policy agendas in support of the development of national digital services and resources in libraries. From 2010-15, Trevor served as a Digital Archivist with the National Digital Information Infrastructure and Preservation Program (NDIIPP) at the Library of Congress. Before that, he was the community manager for the Zotero project at the Center for History and New Media.

Subject: Britannica Listserv Announcement: "Digital Learning Day 2016 is Today" and "Inspiring Inquiry: First Steps to Student Questioning"

Hi there,

How are you? Well, I hope.

There are two listserv announcements for today!


1)     Digital Learning Day is Today

2)     Inspiring Inquiry: First Steps to Student Questioning

The text for both can be found below.

Please reach out with any questions you may have!

Happy Wednesday,
Kelli

Subject: Digital Learning Day 2016 is Today!
Digital Learning Day<http://www.digitallearningday.org/site/default.aspx?PageID=11> (#DLDay) provides an opportunity to share ideas, collaborate with peers, try new digital tools, and celebrate education innovation. This year it's celebrated today on Wednesday, February 17th.

How will your school or library participate?
If you're looking for inspiration, we've identified practical tips and ideas that you can implement immediately.


10 IDEAS FOR PARTICIPATING IN #DLDay:

1.     Join in the Fun!
Classrooms worldwide are celebrating Digital Learning Day. See what other educators are doing, and take away new ideas that you can use in your classroom on another day.

2. Share!
Post a short video or image so that others can see how you integrate digital learning into the classroom. If you're a subscriber, we want to hear from you! How are you using Britannica resources to enhance your students' learning? We're on Facebook<https://www.facebook.com/britannicalearn>, Twitter<https://twitter.com/britannicalearn>, and Instagram<https://instagram.com/britannicalearn/>. We would love to see how you make the most of your Britannica resources. Use #DLDay<http://www.hashatit.com/hashtags/DLDay> to share your new ways of using technology for learning!

3. Listen Up.
Identify a voice you admire in the Education industry...is it a teacher, a publisher, a blog? Find one (or more) and be inspired on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. And make it easy for yourself-subscribe to newsletters or social media news feeds, so that the information comes to you and you don't have to search it out. Interested in receiving our monthly newsletters<http://info.eb.com/educators-resources/newsletter/>?

4. Put the Kids in Charge.
We all know that kids are embracing technology like never before. They willingly talk about technology and share what apps and sites they like. Take 15 minutes and let students present their favorite educational app or site. It will engage and empower the students, and might give you some new ideas for the classroom. Delve into why they love that app or Web site...is it the self-pacing, the colorful interface, or a unique twist on the topic? How can that tool apply to a topic that you'll cover in class this year? This is also a great way to build students' evaluation and analysis skills!

5. Lunch & Learn.
This never goes out of style! Does your school or library have a forum to share new technologies and ideas? If so, great-take the time to participate! If not, be the one to start something. Designate one day a month for a Digital Lunch & Learn session and take turns leading the lunch.

6. Do Something New.
Think about what interests YOU most about digital learning. Chances are you've seen a new digital product (ImageQuest or Pathways: Science might come to mind) or technique (flipping the classroom) that piqued your interest. Now is the time to do something about it! Sign up for a free trial to a new product, locate a free or recorded Webinar to get some new classroom ideas, or find a whitepaper that provides more background about a topic. Take the first step!

7. Find Virtual Pen Pals.
Get connected, discover new cultures and learn together. To get started, try a site like PenPal Schools<https://www.penpalschools.com/>-a worldwide online pen pal learning community. Find a class of similar age in a foreign country. Great for students who have family in other countries!

8. Lights, Camera, Action!
Have the kids use an app like iMovie to interview a grandparent, family friend, or relative. Tales can range from war experiences to moving cross-country to being the first in the family to attend college. Students will be excited to use the technology and the movies will spark interesting class discussions. No technology at home? Make use of the public library!

9. Travel the World.
Use a trusted Web site like Britannica School<http://school.eb.com/levels> and use video to take a virtual field trip, on Digital Learning Day or any day. Visit Ireland on St. Patrick's Day, go inside the Smithsonian to see gems from American history, visit a college, or ask students to compare their life to someone their age in South Africa.

10. Get Ready for College and Careers.
Career Day can be any day, and location isn't a problem anymore! Tap into your network of alumni, parents, former college professors, and others who want to serve as a career role model for students via Skype or Facetime.

We believe that incorporating the spirit of Digital Learning Day every day will help all students reach their true potential. What ideas will you try?


Subject: Inspiring Inquiry: First Steps to Student Questioning

Questioning is one of the most important aspects of inquiry, and it can also be one of the most difficult skills to learn.  Join us for this one-hour webinar to discover tools to encourage students to dig deeper, think critically, develop reasoning skills, and ask essential questions. Find strategies for students to use when they reach a fork in the road, or a point of difficulty in their questioning to allow them to take ownership of the direction of their learning. Let the lifelong learning begin with Britannica School!
Certificates Provided!
Tuesday, February 23rd, at 3 PM CST

Hi Steven,



We in ALA's Public Programs Office have just announced a new grant opportunity. Would you mind sharing it with your colleagues and members?



You may have heard of the Great Stories Club, a book club program for at-risk teens, created with support from the National Endowment for the Humanities. We are now offering a new theme of the Great Stories Club under the theme "The Art of Change: Creation, Growth and Transformation." This round features three books with protagonists that use the arts to overcome personal challenges.



You can find more information about the grant on the Programming Librarian website: http://programminglibrarian.org/articles/apply-now-great-stories-club-art-change.



Thanks, as always, for your help!

<http://www.lafayettela.gov/presidents/pages/lafayette-rankings.aspx>
Happiest City in the United States!" The Lafayette Public Library Board of
Control (LA) seeks an exceptional leader and executive who demonstrates
commitment to the public library's local and global mission. The successful
candidate will have the skill and experience to plan and implement new
services and programs, fostering community support and a shared vision for
the  <http://lafayettepubliclibrary.org/> Lafayette Public Library.
Political acumen, an understanding and proficiency in library technologies,
a proven record of successful staff leadership, an in-depth knowledge of
library funding streams, and experience in library construction and design
are critical skill sets.  With a dedicated staff of 140 and a $12 million
annual operating budget, the Library serves the 221,000 parish residents
from a main library, three regional libraries, and five branches,
circulating 1,800,000+ items annually. Opportunities include developing and
implementing a new strategic plan and completing the design-build for a new
West Regional Library.

 

 <http://www.lafayettela.gov/Pages/Index.aspx> Lafayette, located at the
intersection of Interstates 49 and 10, serves as an economic center of
Louisiana. The region's joie de vivre and Cajun and Creole cultures are
known around the globe, creating a unique environment for work and play.
Lafayette is also home to a world-class workforce, an integrated
transportation network, a diversified business base, preeminent high-tech
infrastructure, and a metropolitan appeal. The city is the center of a
multi-cultural and multi-industrial region that's surrounded by a
publicly-owned fiber optic loop. Today, Lafayette has diversified by
positioning itself as a medical, transportation, entertainment, education
and retail hub, and its economic resilience is a result of strategic growth,
an entrepreneurial spirit, and a skilled workforce steeped in southern
values. The home of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette, a Ph.D.
granting institution, as well as a community college and a technical
college, Lafayette draws from a metropolitan population of nearly 500,000,
and as the retail, medical, and cultural heart of Acadiana, is known as the
Hub City. For additional information on the Lafayette Public Library and the
Lafayette region, visit  <http://www.gossagesager.com/lafayettelinks.htm>

Responsibilities. The Director reports to an eight member Library Board of
Control. With overall responsibilities for fulfilling the mission of the
library, the Director formulates, proposes, presents and administers library
policies for Board approval. The Director creates all budgets; directs
personnel, branches, outreach services; supervises development and
maintenance of library collections and facilities; executes the strategic
plans of the Board; and is the spokesperson for internal and external
communications. The Director attends all Lafayette Consolidated Government
Council meetings as the liaison to the Administration.  As an ex officio
Library Foundation Board member, the Director is expected to actively
participate in the civic life of Lafayette and in state, regional and
national library associations.

 

Qualifications. Minimum qualifications are an ALA-accredited Master's
Degree, a minimum of five years of progressively responsible administrative
and managerial experience in public libraries with three years of executive
level experience, and certification by the Louisiana Board of Library
Examiners. (Candidates who do not have this certification must be able to
attain it within the first year of employment). Vital attributes include
superior oral and written communication skills, thorough knowledge of
financial and personnel management, political skills, and the ability to
work in a collaborative team environment. Success working closely with a
governing board as a Director or Assistant Director in a multi-branch, urban
environment is highly desired.

 

Compensation. The salary range for the position is $100,000 - $110,000 (with
placement within the range dependent on experience and qualifications) with
an excellent benefits package.

Hello all,

In the "I couldn't have said it better myself" category, this week's MM has been written by Tina Creguer, staff member of the Public Team at Gale Cengage Learning<http://www.cengage.com/search/showresults.do?N=197> who contributes content to The Blog<http://blog.gale.com/>. Thank you Tina and Gale for sharing this useful reminder.

Pop quiz. Are these organizations real or made up? 1904 World's Fair Association, Medieval Academy of America, National Clogging Organization, National Space Club, and American Association of Independent Music (A2IM).

Answer: all five are real, thriving organizations - and someone in your community may benefit from connecting with them. The resource that many rely on to pinpoint valuable information for more than 24,000 associations, both national and multi-national, is the venerable Encyclopedia of Associations. This foundational reference work features updated content, is searchable, and is available online through MeL Database Gale Directory Library.<http://www.galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-gale.php?database=GDL>  Information includes ... contact information, founding date, purpose, activities, dues, conferences, and much more. It's the most comprehensive collection of U.S.-based national nonprofit membership associations and other organizations in the world with entries verified and updated each year to ensure completeness and reliability. With Gale Directory Library<http://www.galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-gale.php?database=GDL>, you can make information accessible digitally anytime, anywhere. Help your patrons connect with causes, organizations, and ideals that matter to them. Michigan residents or Michigan library access only.

MeL Minutes are brought to you by the Library of Michigan.  Want more information on MeL?  Stay tuned for next week's MeL Minute available on many Michigan library listservs, email us at contact at mel.org<mailto:contact at mel.org> or visit mel.org<http://mel.org/>.  We encourage you to share MeL Minutes with your public service colleagues.

Hi,



I wanted to let everyone know about a fun program and exhibit.  Zarinah El-Amin Naeem is the owner of Beautifully Wrapped and she will come to your library and do a head wrapping workshop and demonstration.  It is a fun program - we did it back in 2014 and it was a huge hit!  We had 80 people come and everyone loved it.  Zarinah will demonstrate a couple of different head wrapping styles from different cultures around the world on audience members, she tells the story of its origins and its significance and at the end of the program she has wraps for the audience to try it themselves.  It was such fun we are having her back again in the fall.  



She also has an exhibit that she can bring to the program and/or display it at your library.  We used it to build up excitement prior to the program.  



Her requested honorarium is $300 and her contact information is: 

Zarinah El-Amin Naeem, M.A.  
Founder of Beautifully Wrapped

Cell: 313-377-2857

Email: zarinah at niyah.net



I've attached some pictures I took of the exhibit and the head wrapping workshop.



Thanks,

Kelly

Hello all,

Please disregard and discard the MeL Minute discussing the Gale Directory Library.  It contains inaccurate information.  MeL's access to the Gale Directory Library DOES NOT provide access to the Encyclopedia of Associations.  MeL's access includes Ward's Business Directory of Private and Public Companies in Canada and Mexico and Business Rankings Annual only.

I apologize for this error.

Anyone use UniFirst (or any other service that you would recommend or not)

Thanks for voices of experience.

Subject: [Michlib-l] music performance licensing
Message-ID: <CAB15D7bMgCWVHM1cHwfuXUfu3JJ_T09twKH=D6-+eX-e7fJzcw@mail.gmail.com>

If you use live music at a library program (like a cover band), have you
ever obtained a music performance license?  I have never heard such a thing
but received a letter from ASCAP, American Society of Composers, Authors
and Publishers, about the need to get licensing for these performances.

We have a live music concert series in the summer, so this could pertain to
us, but it kind of sounds like a crock.

Thoughts?  Experiences?

A couple libraries indicated that they were interested in my findings.

SUMMARY:
No Library indicated that they attach a disclaimer in the body of the email generated by their scan to email service.
I have not yet had the following reviewed by a lawyer, but as a temporary measure I am using this language:

[ QUOTE ]

DO NOT REPLY.  The attachment was emailed from a scanner at the Garden City (MI) Public Library.  This is a self-serve machine.  The Library and its staff neither monitors nor controls the public use of the scanner.  Therefore, neither the Library nor its staff take any responsibility for the quality or content of the text or image(s) transmitted.

[ /QUOTE ]

A similar statement will be worked into the policy my Board will be considering at an up-coming meeting.

If your Library offers "scan to email" service, do you have any disclaimer sent in the body of the email?  If so, would you be willing to share the language with me?  Thank you in advance.

IMLS to Award States More Than $155 Million for Library Services

Washington, DC--The Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) today released its Fiscal Year 2016 allotment table<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001IqqCCrrlCdLGN34XKXFeSaVCS5n_V75Zw7rw_nHIl-mEZh2OlZSGb4u3SsgN9CSHwO48wNyB4HXmo9Ze3mrXsQDST1PWq1gx6OsQDBuLk-4yH-P4gOgpQ3EcCngLpbYFNx41oNAe6TxfNElV9QNhA7lz-8YYh3lHRhR4_SqAvENlUQ31K42KD5j1QsUB3YKd9-pIWNKBaPu-UDIbH8xDJMoxfR6DbS8Zx_6SpoSvZeZOOO5SQDkqCjr9bsdBd8Ve&c=JfcFyAGLrVMqq_G5lcUgKvBErBx5adur3luUUlIvBwupgjxuvyPKPA==&ch=XWKzoVBv5E0JXADd7-tKY36l-u9HQiZUbYNSUj3UNDduIyCys0pLvA==> for 56 State Library Administrative Agencies (SLAAs), totaling $155,789,000. These annual grants to the 50 states, the District of Columbia and the U.S. Territories represent the largest source of federal funding support for library services in the United States.

The agency's Grants to States program<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001IqqCCrrlCdLGN34XKXFeSaVCS5n_V75Zw7rw_nHIl-mEZh2OlZSGb4u3SsgN9CSHk_Uoeo9byvE7bVHwcPcSNZKyGow4I3BOHfHgm5LGnuDWB6EY3r19hBMicSkSTPKFTtqJ_BoAfRAJvZuBRhsqIhdioh2yp4m8GC4W0f2YA4XEftbj7ftt7y6ztW5Osuaq0GimvCUYfRA=&c=JfcFyAGLrVMqq_G5lcUgKvBErBx5adur3luUUlIvBwupgjxuvyPKPA==&ch=XWKzoVBv5E0JXADd7-tKY36l-u9HQiZUbYNSUj3UNDduIyCys0pLvA==> allocates a base amount to each of the SLAAs plus a supplemental amount based on population. These federal funds supplement rather than replace state funding for existing state library services, and the program assures local involvement through financial matching requirements. The newly released allotment table identifies both the federal (66%) and state match share (34%) for each SLAA.

States and their subrecipients have used Grants to States funds for a range of projects that respond to the purposes and priorities outlined in the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA)<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001IqqCCrrlCdLGN34XKXFeSaVCS5n_V75Zw7rw_nHIl-mEZh2OlZSGb4u3SsgN9CSHYMPtgDGfZZ5aS7QpkMTmnjxk3XGEawyNsuU0D3L2HeGXpE8Wi1FEsLOjUV1Zd_art_roRpTawK-pUQYe4FhnaiK1vPaeu2NiHx7zmqAYuByB0Yvhb5uAmDXX3SjW2GA0Tei8wCBLFl-YqrkWoqzTSy2qCGbc4UQ1N1-EQAhVkOQ=&c=JfcFyAGLrVMqq_G5lcUgKvBErBx5adur3luUUlIvBwupgjxuvyPKPA==&ch=XWKzoVBv5E0JXADd7-tKY36l-u9HQiZUbYNSUj3UNDduIyCys0pLvA==>.

Message-ID: <CAH_4hLqJvCYti5CEQe7NurUKakv73hA6vTBEtLwLtMdExhOHVA@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Michigan libraries!
See below for how to get free conference registration!
(Passing this on for the Association for Rural and Small Libraries).
Thanks,
Colleen

Does your library go ?beyond normal??  If so, the The Association for Rural
& Small Libraries (ARSL) is accepting proposals for break-out session
presentations for the 2016 Conference to be held in Fargo, North
Dakota on October
27-29, 2016.  The theme for ARSL 2016 is  ?North of Normal?  and we?d like
to hear about creative ideas that take your library beyond normal.
Proposals for these 1-hour sessions can be submitted using our online form
<http://goo.gl/forms/WZ8bXNtVV6>. The deadline to submit is March 21, 2016
in order for the Conference Programming Committee to review and make
selections. Those who submit a proposal will be notified whether or not
their proposal was accepted by April 15, 2016.

We remind presenters that workshops must be geared toward the small and
rural library audience, and those that are practical, hands-on, and how-to
are preferred.  This is not the proper venue for post-graduate
dissertations or marketing products. Additional instructions are included
on the form.

*Workshop presenters will receive ONE complimentary conference registration
per workshop title selected, i.e. a team of three presenters working on one
workshop will receive one complimentary registration.*

We also suggest you watch our website www.arsl.info or our Facebook
<https://www.facebook.com/ARSLpage/> and Twitter
<https://twitter.com/RuralLibAssoc> streams for the latest conference
news!  The committee is looking forward to receiving your submissions.

Good Luck!

Message-ID: <CAHTuYsqsKk7iUB5u3VwmdkWayVyBAQnRcCRn77GVH=qGzz04Aw@mail.gmail.com>

*Chelsea District Library?s Authors in Chelsea Program to Showcase Three
Notable Children?s Authors and the ?Power of Writing?*

*Chelsea, Michigan | February 22, 2016 *

The Chelsea District Library will hold its 7th annual *Authors in Chelsea*
event on Wednesday, March 30th and Thursday, March 31th. This two-day event
brings three nationally known authors to present assemblies and workshops
on writing in Chelsea schools. The library is also holding a special
evening *Meet the Authors* event on March 30th from 6:30-8:00pm for
families and the general public to meet all three authors. This event will
be held in Room 100 of the Washington Street Education Center at 512
Washington Street. ?Our evening event last year was a huge success,?
remarked Karen Persello, Head of Youth and Teen Services at the library.
?We had close to 200 people attending, and we hope everyone will come again
this year.?  During the evening, each author will have a turn to speak,
members of the audience can ask questions, and then get their books
signed.  Books will be available for purchase in the WSEC lobby, from
Chelsea?s Just Imagine bookstore.

This year?s line-up includes *Dan Yaccarino, *author and illustrator of the
children?s books *Doug Unplugged*, *Doug Unplugs on the Farm*, and many
others, who will be visiting all 1st and 2nd graders at North Creek
Elementary School; *Ruth McNally Barshaw*, who has written and illustrated
six novels for the *Ellie McDoodle Diaries *series and will be visiting all
3rd, 4th and 5th grade students at South Meadows Elementary School*;*
and *William
Durbin*, who writes historical adventures that include *The Broken Blade,
The Winter War, *and *Blackwater Ben, *and will be visiting the 6th graders
at Beach Middle School.

The purpose of *Authors in Chelsea* is to provide 1st?6th grade students
close contact with award-winning authors in order to explore the art and
craft of writing, encourage them to read and appreciate literature, and
learn to appreciate ?the Power of Writing.?

Marcus Kaemming, principal of North Creek Elementary School, says ?We are
very excited about our continued opportunity to have these author visits.
The children are extremely excited about the books and experiences they
bring. Each year the authors spur new conversations and help our students
get reinvigorated about their own writing. The CDL does a superb job of
finding great people to share with our youngest authors.?

South Meadows Elementary School principal Stacie Battaglia states, "We are
so very fortunate that our library finds value in offering these
experiences to our students. There is such excitement and of course an
amazing learning opportunity for kids when they meet a ?real? author!?

>From Nick Angel, principal of Beach Middle School, ?We contribute to
appreciate the Authors in Chelsea series here at Beach. The students
benefit from reading Durbin's book but also from meeting him face to face.
This makes the writing process come alive.?  6th grade teacher Ryann
Skrypec says, "Having an author come to a community and share their writing
story with middle school students is like a young child learning how to
write. They start to believe things they might have once thought
impossible, possible!"

In preparation for the Authors in Chelsea visits to the schools, youth
librarians visit each 1st-6th grade class to get students excited about
this year?s authors by delivering free books and ?talking up? the author,
even giving out small prizes to students who can answer questions about the
authors and their books. Additionally, there will be a Fun Fair at the
Chelsea District Library on Saturday, March 5, 1:00-3:00pm where kids can
join together in fun and games themed around this year?s authors? books.
Attendees can do everything from test driving a wireless Sphero robot to
celebrate Dan Yaccarino?s *Doug Unplugged,* to hunting for Ellie?s Doodles
around the library, featuring illustrations by Ruth McNally Barshaw!  At
the Voyageur Camp in the McKune Room, students can pose in a canoe and
choose their own French name fit for a fur trader. Ages 6 and up are
invited to attend and registration is not required.

Support from the Chelsea Education Foundation and the Friends of the
Chelsea District Library has allowed for the purchase of more than 300
books by this year?s visiting authors. The books were distributed to
classrooms and the media centers at each of the three participating Chelsea
schools in advance of the authors? visits.

Hi


    On Thursday, March 10 at 6 pm Kitty Donohoe will be here to help us celebrate St. Patrick's Day! Emmy recipient Kitty Donohoe draws from her Irish heritage as well as her American and Canadian roots for her unique songs. Her music is rich, earthy, and compelling.  All ages are welcome but children must be accompanied by an adult.


Coloring is just for kids, right? Not anymore! Adults across the country have picked up coloring books as a fun way to relax and unwind.  The health benefits include relaxation, exercising fine motor skills, and training the brain to focus. So join us at 6 pm on March 31 to unwind and bring out your imaginations. We'll supply all the materials plus tea and hot chocolate. Older teens and adults only.


Thank you for helping to promote our programs.

Greetings!

This is the message we're getting when we call 1-800-367-6263
(1-800-FORM-2-ME) for State tax forms. Usually that's the message you get
if you are calling a number that's for in/out state based on your location.

The local Treasury office said the state telephone system went digital a
few weeks ago and this may be the reason. She said she would alert her
supervisor. And of course, everything is online.

Have no idea when this may be fixed. It is the number than't on the MI
Treasury website to call for froms.

Regards,

Katheryn Carrier

Message-ID: <8EE24ACF5C2B5945AF776E39181A0095495E36D9@EXCH.wb.local>

Hello Everyone,

Not that I am trying to get you all to move to Wisconsin like I did 5 years ago. But I figure someone in the list might be looking for a good opportunity, so I like to pass things on. One of my colleagues in Milwaukee County just retired after 37 years leading the Greenfield Public Library. Milwaukee is an awesome area to live in and Greenfield is a lovely community!


Under direction of the Greendale Public Library Board of Trustees, administers the library with responsibility and authority for organizing and managing the library operation and for planning and coordinating its program of service to the community.  Works in an environment within the library's building with occasional travel.  Provides leadership and planning within the Community Learning Center environment (http://greendale.org/departments/community_learning_center/index.php).  This is an exempt position.
Full job posting: http://bit.ly/1TxaQJL


Thank you and have a wonderful day,

Hi all;

I am working with some local library supporters to begin a Friends Group
for my library.  If you have an established Friends group, I would love to
hear from you (or forward this to your Friends):

1. We are looking for samples of by-laws for Friends Group.
2. If your Friends group offers levels of membership, what are the levels &
what are the dues per levels?
3. Does your Friends group have a 501c3 number separate from your library's?

Thank you for your help!

Hi Laura. You can connect your Friends with other groups across the country by introducing them to our statewide membership in United for Libraries.

You can access the member area of the site here: http://www.ala.org/united/michigan

Login: michigan
Password: greatlake1837

On the left-hand side of the site you can find navigation links. Use the link for ?Friends? to find a host of member only information, including the Friends  Electronic Discussion Group and Organizational Tools.

You can find the ?Libraries Need Friends? Starting a Friends Group of Revitalizing the One You Have? in this area.  It is a PDF handbook with lots of helpful information about the questions you ask below, including information on the 501c3 status.

You can also find samples of bylaws under section ?Friends Groups?, then ?Organizational Tools? choose the link for ?Bylaws?.

I hope this helps and please share this information with all your Friends groups. The Library of Michigan is providing access to public library staff, trustees and friends through this statewide membership.

CHICAGO - The ALA Task Force on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion was created in the spring of 2014 by then ALA President Barbara Stripling. Before moving forward with programs, actions or recommendations, the members of the Task Force on Equity, Diversity & Inclusion believe it is important to understand the culture of the association, the profession and our communities with respect to equity, diversity, and inclusion. Our short surveys are an opportunity to include input and ideas from the professional community, while complementing the rich data collection efforts of the larger association.

We recognize that incidents of racial bias and injustice continue to occur across the country on a regular basis.  This third survey, however, focuses on the economic implications of participating in ALA functions.

The survey can be accessed at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/TEDI3.

Responses will be collected through March 18, 2016.

ALA members and non-members are encouraged to participate.

Please take a few minutes to answer the survey, which should take no more than seven minutes to complete.

"Embracing and celebrating diversity and creating a more inclusive profession have been long-standing goals of the American Library Association. With your help, we hope to ensure these values are upheld," said Task Force co-Chairs Trevor A. Dawes and Martin L. Garnar.

Questions about the survey can be sent to the Task Force at diversity at ala.org<mailto:diversity at ala.org>.

Should technical issues arise, please contact the ALA Office for Research and Statistics at ors at ala.org<mailto:ors at ala.org> or call 1 (800) 545-2433. ext. 4273

Message-ID: <CAOz8ohkmTtibDhzVpx3fuF4hVqaPstqn2dOA_otnv88zuLORtg@mail.gmail.com>

I am wondering if any of you with local history collections/local history
rooms keep your out-of-date phone books and yellow pages.

We have our historic City Directories which we are definitely keeping, and
we also have Polk Directories for all the years for which we have
out-of-date phone books and yellow pages. Our main concern is space and
condition of the phone books (the older ones are in pretty bad shape).

Could you let me know if you keep yours? We are leaning to getting rid of
them but if there's a good reason to keep them that I'm not seeing, I'm
open to keeping them!

Thanks.

The Michigan Rope Twisters is not able to come over to this side of the
state, and I have not been able to get a response from the Jumpin' All
Stars.

Thanks in advance!

Hello All-

 

Would you mind sharing where you purchase your library cards from? Included
with that, if you wouldn't mind sharing what your cards are like (i.e.
singled sided, double-sided, if the barcode is printed on the card, color
image, signature block, etc.) I am looking to see if there are more
affordable options out there than what we are currently using. 

 

Thanks!

*President Obama said, ?Michelle and I have known Dr. Carla Hayden for a
long time, since her days working at the Chicago Public Library, and I am
proud to nominate her to lead our nation?s oldest federal institution as
our 14th Librarian of Congress. Dr. Hayden has devoted her career to
modernizing libraries so that everyone can participate in today's digital
culture. She has the proven experience, dedication, and deep knowledge of
our nation?s libraries to serve our country well and that?s why I look
forward to working with her in the months ahead. If confirmed, Dr. Hayden
would be the first woman and the first African American to hold the
position ? both of which are long overdue.?*

*Carla D. Hayden, Nominee for Librarian of Congress, Library of Congress:*



Dr. Carla D. Hayden is CEO of the Enoch Pratt Free Library in Baltimore,
Maryland, a position she has held since 1993.  Dr. Hayden was nominated by
President Obama to be a member of the National Museum and Library Services
Board in January 2010 and was confirmed by the Senate in June 2010.  Prior
to joining the Pratt Library, Dr. Hayden was Deputy Commissioner and Chief
Librarian of the Chicago Public Library from 1991 to 1993.  She was an
Assistant Professor for Library and Information Science at the University
of Pittsburgh from 1987 to 1991.  Dr. Hayden was Library Services
Coordinator for the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago from 1982 to
1987.  She began her career with the Chicago Public Library as the Young
Adult Services Coordinator from 1979 to 1982 and as a Library Associate and
Children?s Librarian from 1973 to 1979.  Dr. Hayden was President of the
American Library Association from 2003 to 2004.  In 1995, she was the first
African American to receive Library Journal?s Librarian of the Year Award
in recognition of her outreach services at the Pratt Library, which
included an afterschool center for Baltimore teens offering homework
assistance and college and career counseling.  Dr. Hayden received a B.A.
from Roosevelt University and an M.A. and Ph.D. from the Graduate Library
School of the University of Chicago.

Good Afternoon!

The Metropolitan Detroit Medical Library Group (MDMLG) is proud to be hosting a two course event  at WSU's Shiffman Medical Library on March 24, 2016 from 8:30am to 4:30pm. Holly Ann Burt will be teaching "Keeping up with PubMed" in the morning and "Emergency Preparedness for Libraries" in the afternoon. These courses are FREE to attend and are being brought to you by the National Network of Libraries of Medicine Greater Midwest Region (GMR). We encourage you to participate and hope you can join us!

Keeping Up With PubMed - 4 MLA CE Credits (8:30am to 12:30pm)
With a hands-on approach, this class will show attendees how to use the features of PubMed effectively. Attendees will be able to describe the contents of PubMed; formulate basic search strategies; display, print, and save results in various formats; revise and refine searches; and use special features such as Related Articles, Link to journals, Citation Matcher, and Clinical Queries. The instructor will demonstrate online searches and students, at computers connected to the Internet, will be invited to follow along. Time for individual practice will be provided.

Emergency Preparedness for Libraries - 3 MLA CE Credits (1:30pm to 4:30pm)
The class examines strategies to assist librarians with preparing for, responding to, and recovering from emergencies. Topics include learning how to conduct a basic risk assessment for their libraries and craft a basic emergency preparedness plan including strategies for continuing library services during the emergency; disaster planning models; types of resources available for emergency planning and recovery; relationships with first responders, vendors, and other libraries; and issues related to salvage. Class activities provide the opportunity to discuss and begin developing continuity of service plans and related processes.

Please register, using the online form http://www.mdmlg.org/CE%20Registration%2003-24-2016.docx by March 11, 2016!

Cost is FREE for both MDMLG members and non-members.

Help. A young woman I know is looking for a book that she remembers from
Kindergarten. This would have been late 80s-early 90s.

She told me that it was about a boy who got a star-shaped sticker that he
put on his forehead and it left a white spot when he got a tan.

I have been searching online and have found the following descriptions from
others searching for the same book. No results were posted where I found
this.

"

*I don't remember the title or author, but it was a children's book,
probably from the 60's, about a boy who received a star sticker from his
teacher.  The star was placed on his forehead, and he was so proud of it
that he wouldn't wash his face for fear that the star would come off.  His
face got dirtier and dirtier until somehow the sticker fell off or was
removed, and then there was a white star shaped spot on his forehead where
the sticker had been, surrounded by the dirty skin. *unknown, Weekly
Reader, 1965 or 1966.  I remember reading this story when I was in 1st or
2nd grade.  I recall that it was in a Weekly Reader magazine.  The young
boy won the gold star because he had been able to count to 100, had been
able to say the alphabet from A to Z, and had been able to name the seven
basic colors.  I hope this helps to narrow the search a little bit.

*"*

Does anyone know what book this might be? Thank you, all.

Last summer the Novi Public Library did a modified version of a  Story Walk on our patio (story on the patio).  Each week for six weeks a different story was placed outside in the raised bed along the patio.  I laminated the pages of each book so that the story could be read walking both ways along the path.  I stapled the laminated sheets to simple wire lawn signs.
Check out a pic here<https://www.facebook.com/novipubliclibrary/photos/ms.c.eJwzNDA0NTaxNLcwNTE0szS1NNUzRIgYY4gYmmKImJkARQALDg6P.bps.a.10153497853764595.1073742041.61933544594/10153497854159595/?type=3&theater>.
We have a beautiful park adjacent to the library and I hope to be able to do an official Story Walk there in the future.  The wire lawn signs are not sturdy enough, however.  Story Walk frames are available to purchase but are pricey.
Check out Barking Dog Exhibits for examples.  www.bdexhibits.com<http://www.bdexhibits.com/>
Good luck and have fun with your Story Walk.

Library People! 

You are invited to attend Library Camp: An Unconference on Friday, April 15, 2016 from 9:30 am to 4:30 pm. 

This event is intended for information professionals and graduate students with an interest in libraries. It's an informal, unconference-style gathering intended to bring people to share ideas, technologies, and to spark discussion. Library Camp is free to attend and will be held at the Downtown Library at 343 South Fifth Avenue, Ann Arbor, MI. 

Click here to register. 

The goal is to get a bunch of people together, and let them talk about whatever they'd like to talk about, within the rough purview of libraries and library technology. We'll start with a blank schedule and start the day with a discussion of topics we'd like to talk about to fill in the agenda. We've got time for four sessions and room for at least 4 concurrent sessions, so there could easily be 10-12 different things to talk about during the day. 

Bring your ideas and quandaries. AADL staff will be on hand to help with directing the conversation, but like any unconference, the event is led by whoever shows up! Further details are at: http://www.aadl.org/libcamp16 . 

See you April 15th!

*Subject:* *House Bill 5219*

The House of Representatives passed House Bill 5219, which is meant to
bring clarification for Senate Bill 571 from last year. HB 5219 clarifies
that the restriction on using public resources to reference a local ballot
question only applies to radio or television advertisements, rather than
any communication over television or radio. As a result, public resources
would be restricted for the following types of communications: mass
mailings, prerecorded telephone messages, radio advertisements, television
advertisements. The bill also makes clear that the restriction on the use
of public resources to reference a local ballot question does not cover
meetings of a public body.



Additionally, the bill deletes the 60 day timeframe and provides that the
restriction on using public resources would not preclude an informative
communication that consists of any of the following:

?       The language of a local ballot question;

?       The date of an election;

?       Factual and strictly neutral information concerning the direct
impact of a local ballot question on a public body or the electorate,
except if the communication can reasonably be interpreted as an attempt to
influence the outcome of a local ballot question.

I think it addresses our issues nicely. MLA's Legislative Committee Chair, Executive Director and Lobbyist met with Representative Lisa Posthumus-Lyons to ask for her help. As a result, she introduced this bill. Hopefully it passes the Senate, gets signed by the Governor and becomes law.

I hope everyone was able to did out of the snow this morning!

Have a great day!

I had the opportunity to attend a webinar yesterday hosted by the Muskegon Area ISD featuring school media specialist Joan Vincent showcasing MeL's Research in Context, Opposing Viewpoints in Context and BritannicaSchool and how useful they are for teachers and students.  It is also available on YouTube so I would like to share that with you:  https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=onZfpdn0Jl0. It's about 1/2 long so quite viewable in terms of time.

	Branch District Library (MI)
Message-ID: <009201d170cf$10f18560$32d49020$@gossagesager.com>

LIBRARY DIRECTOR - BRANCH DISTRICT LIBRARY, SOUTH-CENTRAL MICHIGAN

                                                                           

Manage six unique libraries as a single, unified system in South Central
Michigan! The Branch District Library
<https://www.branchdistrictlibrary.org/>  Board of Trustees seeks a
progressive and original leader who can and will capitalize on the Library's
2015 millage success and create a sound forward-thinking plan for the
Library's future. The Library staff (37 employees,  23 FTE) serves the
46,905 citizens of Branch County and Allen Township in Hillsdale County with
a $1.6 million operating budget.  The Branch District Library was formed in
1991 by combining the resources and services of individual public libraries
in Coldwater, Algansee, Bronson, Quincy, Sherwood, and Union Township.
Branches of the District Library remain active in those communities, each of
which has its own unique character, community support, programs and
services. The challenge for the new Director will be to help the Library and
its services flourish with its communities, move forward with innovation to
restore hours and services and become recognized as the community resource.
The District collaborates with the Woodlands Library Cooperative
<http://woodlands.lib.mi.us/>  and other agencies to provide technology,
special programs and much more.

 

Branch County <http://www.countyofbranch.com/>  is located in southern
Michigan, half way between Chicago and Detroit along the Old Sauk Trail,
also known as the U.S. 12 Heritage Route. With warm small town hospitality,
Coldwater (the county seat) and the surrounding communities offer festivals,
shopping, restaurants and more than 100 area lakes for fishing and
recreational activities-all amid very diverse and affordable housing
options. Cultural amenities include the historical Tibbits Opera House in
Coldwater-the second oldest theater in Michigan-offering near perfect
acoustics in an intimate 499-seat setting. The theater offers a fine array
of performances throughout the year and has developed an outstanding
reputation for its Summer Theatre performances. Branch County is served by
five school districts and two colleges-Baker College and Kellogg Community
College. The area has a healthy and expanding economy, including the
recently announced Clemens Food Group's $225 million investment in a new
pork production facility. For more about the communities and the Library see
Branch Links <http://www.gossagesager.com/branchlinks.htm> .  

 

Responsibilities. The Director reports to a seven-member Library Board of
Trustees and under the broad policy guidance and direction from the Board,
performs professional and administrative duties in planning, developing,
implementing, and directing public library services for the Branch District
Library.  These duties include personnel management, budget preparation and
financial management, policy and project development, facilities management,
and community relations. The Director will work effectively with elected
officials at the local, township and state level; and with the media,
stakeholder groups, and the communities to enhance the Library's image as
the heart of the county.

 

Qualifications. Minimum qualifications include a Master's Degree in Library
Science from an ALA-accredited program; four years of experience as an
administrator/director or as a department head for a public library (or
equivalent); and the ability to obtain and retain Michigan Certification
Level 1. Essential attributes and skills include: excellent communication
and organizational skills; the ability and desire to plan, develop, and
administer the activities of a public library; supervisory experience;
demonstrated ability to establish and maintain effective working
relationships with the Board, staff and community stakeholders; and an
understanding and appreciation of public library best practices in the areas
of intellectual freedom, collections, and library technologies. Successful
experience as a library director reporting to a governing board, experience
leading and implementing a strategic planning process and experience with a
successful millage campaign are highly desirable.

 

Compensation.  The salary range is $70,000 to $82,000 (with placement
dependent upon experience and qualifications) with an attractive benefits
package.

 

For further information contact Bradbury Associates/Gossage Sager Associates
<http://www.gossagesager.com/>  via email or telephone. To start the
application process, send a meaningful cover letter and your resume as Word

Having previously lived in Flint, MI, I now have friends looking for people who can translate flyers about water facts, distribution, lead facts, and new stuff as it comes out, for the Community Partners Communication Team. I'm hoping someone will be able to connect me with a person who can do that translating.

Message-ID: <CAJ2mWCaTwizneXoGSA4Z6dyMaUxc3aQVLOBMtfPo+cysJQxRrw@mail.gmail.com>

Attention Michigan genealogy and local history librarians and researchers -
the Michigan Genealogical Council is seeking nominees for the 2016 Lucy
Mary Kellogg Award and is asking for your help in getting the word out!

As genealogy and local history librarians, we are often uniquely connected
to our communities. If you know of someone who is active in your area, is a
member of one of the MGC societies, and deserves recognition for their hard
work and contributions to local history and genealogy resources, please
consider nominating them or passing this information on to someone in your
local genealogical or historical society.

Since 1992, the Michigan Genealogical Council has offered the Lucy Mary
Kellogg award as a way to honor the rich genealogical contributions brought
to our community by dedicated members of Michigan's genealogical societies.
Named for the first woman and first Midwesterner to be chosen for the
National Genealogy Hall of Fame, the award allows us to celebrate our most
active members for their service.

The award has been given to twenty individuals since its creation,
generating hundreds of dollars in donations to local societies, the Library
of Michigan, and the Archives of Michigan. Because of a recent drop in
submissions, the last Lucy Mary Kellogg award was granted in 2012 and we
need help bringing attention to the award to receive enough
submissions to continue
recognizing the valuable offerings brought by our members. To gather judges
and award the 2016 Lucy Mary Kellogg award, we need to receive a  minimum
of three submissions by June 1st.

To nominate someone for the award you just submit a brief nomination form
and a letter of recommendation (up to 500 words) which lists the
individual's achievements and contributions. Societies are encouraged to
solicit multiple letters of recommendation from groups or individuals
familiar with the nominee and their work. As with research - the more
evidence, the better!

Please visit our website <http://www.mimgc.org/cpage.php?pt=14> for a list
of requirements and our nomination form. Questions can be emailed to
info at mimgc.org or johnsonc at yourmdl.org.

Thank you for your time, and have a great week!

Best regards,
Chelsea

Subject: [Michlib-l] StoryWalk Question
Message-ID: <CABG2rSWtT2iOqffFtpNuS=O0yxzvrWUCnBybcqM1eFg2XOtg-w@mail.gmail.com>

?Hi, Ann--

The Dawes Arboretum in Ohio has been doing this for several years. They do
a wonderful job! (I was one of their authors. They used "Bravest of the
Brave" one year for their summer book walk.)

They have permanent signposts with removable flat panels for the
books--tilted at an angle. Then every year they print a book's pages on
waterproof materials and post the book along the reading trail. (Which is
also wheelchair accessible.) They do a kick-off literacy day party with the
arboretum's gift shop supplying and selling the author's books. They invite
the author to speak, and put him/her up for the night. They make a big deal
of it and often have a great turn out.

On the day I was to speak/read at the kick-off party, it rained.
Nevertheless, we still had a great crowd with umbrellas. I loved watching
the kids run from page to page along the trail. The folks at the Dawes also
had a signer there for several speech-impaired children who were attending.

If you can talk the park into making it a permanent exhibit, that would be
great. Kids would look forward to what new book was in the park. Making the
storywalk more of an integral part of a park visit will make a bigger
impression on young readers/park visitors.

If you want any pics, let me know. I have a few from the Dawes I can send.

Best of luck!
Shutta

Message-ID: <d93cabeb1f120fa4104c28b085657c3a@libcoop.net>

 

Hi all, 

The Barnes and Noble located in Grosse Pointe has some book shelves that
they are no longer able to use, and they are looking to donate them to a
good home. There are approximately eight units and they have to be
assembled front to back as shown in the attached photo. They are a wood
composite and she said they are in very good condition. The are
approximately 60" by 36". 

The contact person is Laurel Koenig @ 313-884-5220. Time is of the
essence - She needs to hear from an interested party by 5:00pm on Monday
2/29/16 or they will be discarded.

Message-ID: <CABG2rSWteKq9Fbgo8Bqpq1ou-=sMRsv01smrScUYJRpjwjV4EQ@mail.gmail.com>

?Hey all!  As National Reading Month rolls around again, I keep getting
emails about where/how to contact local authors for school and library
presentations.

Please remember that the Society of Children's Book Authors and
Illustrators has a very active chapter in Michigan (400+ members).  A
listing of those published who do talks is at the Mi--SCBWI site:
https://michigan.scbwi.org/authors-illustrators  .

?Also the State keeps a list known as the Mich. Authors & Illustrators
Database. It's at: http://libraryofmichigan.state.mi.us/Authors  .

And do remember, the sooner you can schedule an author for Reading Month,
the better.  Many are completely booked months out.

Have a happy March! (And it isn't too soon to start preparing for next
March!)
Ciao!
Shutta?
