Great news! Thanks to you, we have tied the Harry Potter Alliance members
in pledged advocacy actions for Virtual Library Legislative Day, bringing
us to 1,400 advocates and counting!

Ahead of next week's Virtual Library Legislative Day activities, I have a
few resources to pass along.

ALA's top 2016 Legislative Day Priorities this week are as follows:

?    CONFIRM Dr. Carla Hayden as the next Librarian of Congress
?    SUPPORT LSTA and Innovative Approaches to Literacy (IAL) Funding
?    PASS Electronic Communications Privacy Act Reform
?    RATIFY the Marrakesh Treaty for the print-disabled ASAP

Starting anytime May 2-6th, you can visit ALA's Legislative Action Center
<http://cqrcengage.com/ala/home> to send an email, post a Tweet, or make a
call to the offices of your elected officials. The Action Center will
provide you with talking points and pre-written emails and tweets that you
can use, or the option to write your own if you wish.

We also have more in-depth information available on this year's issue briefs
<http://www.ala.org/advocacy/sites/ala.org.advocacy/files/content/04-25-16%20All%20Issue%20Briefs%20NLLD%202016.pdf>,
and the Washington Office staff will be discussing the briefs Monday
morning, during the National Library Legislative Day live stream
<https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzPtq7M-znI>. You can tune in to hear the
discussion, and to catch the keynote by former Member of Congress Rush
Holt, from 9am-noon Eastern on May 2nd.

Together, we can make the Capitol echo with the voices and messages of
library advocates in Washington and online.

Please feel free to contact Lisa Lindle <llindle at alawash.org>, Grassroots
Communications Specialist for ALA Washington, if you have any questions.

winners, what school they are from, and the awards they won.

"This year's theme-Exploration, Encounter, Exchange in History-challenged
the students to really think outside the box," said Andrea Lorion, Michigan
History Day state coordinator. "As a result, there are many outstanding and
diverse entries in all five categories-performances, exhibits, papers,
websites and documentaries."

Michigan History Day (National History Day in Michigan) offers a fascinating
opportunity to move beyond routine learning. Based on the annual theme,
students choose to explore and research a local, national or international
historical topic. They then present their work through the disciplines of
writing, art, literature, music, drama and/or visual communications.

Lead sponsors of Michigan History Day 2016 include Meijer, the W.K. Kellogg
Foundation, Amway and Bay City Public Schools.

Please see below for information on the Michigan State Police Summer of Safety Campaign for all public libraries. The MSP will be sending promotional materials to libraries in May for use in your summer programming.

_______________________________________________________


The Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning (OHSP) is asking Michigan libraries to join us for the second year of the summer traffic safety campaign, Michigan Summer of Safety.



Michigan Summer of Safety is a reminder to all of us to "take safety along for the ride" by driving and boating sober, wearing helmets and reflective gear when biking and riding motorcycles, and always wearing a seat belt. The goal is to reduce traffic fatalities and injuries on Michigan roads by increasing seat belt use and safe summer travel.



In May, OHSP will be mailing all Michigan libraries bookmarks, stickers and a banner.


Libraries can also join the conversation on social media by following OHSP on Facebook and Twitter and using #misummerofsafety to promote safe travels from Memorial Day to Labor Day.  #misummerofsafety will provide a platform for a more significant social media presence and increase your reach on safety messages to your audience.


Additional Michigan Summer of Safety support materials include placemats, flyers and sample social media posts are available for download at www.michigan.gov/ohsp<http://www.michigan.gov/ohsp>. Once you receive your materials, you can order more by contacting Cindy Stoneham at 517-636-4256 or stonehamc at michigan.gov<mailto:stonehamc at michigan.gov>.

If you're willing to spend the money, SenSource sells overhead people counters that are very accurate and are even able to distinguish the difference between adults and children. They cost about $1,800 each and require hardwiring, but again, they are very accurate. Details here:?http://www.sensourceinc.com/peoplecounters.htm

Message-ID: <CAENXJNn+n=sTfQwv59-o=s5YRxtFkX4qQBNuTRvoYCSahH1Bog@mail.gmail.com>

Hi Everyone,

Here at Chelsea we have a low vision collection that contains a variety of
magnifiers including hand held at different magnifications levels, a full
page magnifier sheet, and even an Optivisor headband. It has been awhile
since we have added anything new to this collection, so I am interested to
finding other items that might be a good additional to what we already
have.

If your library also has a Low Vision collection, I would love to know if
there are any unique items that have been particularly helpful to the low
vision needs of your users. Links to examples would be appreciated!

Thanks,
Keegan

[Every Child Ready to Read]

________________________________


[child waving]
Welcome to Our Early Literacy Outreach program!

Welcome to the first monthly newsletter which is just one component of The Library of Michigan's launch of their two-year Every Child Ready to Read (ECRR) program. The program is based on the American Library Association's project of the same name.  Teaching parents and other caregivers including early childhood educators how to support the early literacy development of young children is the basis of the program. The Library of Michigan has ECRR manuals available that libraries can request. Training was offered in March, but it was not necessary to participate in training to receive the manual. Contact Karren Reish at reishk at michigan.gov<mailto:reishk at michigan.gov> if you would like a manual.

Many libraries feel that they are participating in the ECRR program by instituting practices within their storytime programs. However, that is not the basis of ECRR. In fact, the manual does not address storytime programs per se, rather the initiative's goal is to reach parents and caregivers, specifically those from low-income and/or low education families, with the importance of engaging in early literacy practices with their young children. Those five practices are: Talking; Reading; Singing; Writing and Playing. The manual was written to assist librarians in offering workshops to parents and caregivers. There are five main workshops to offer to adults (four with children present): Parent Workshop; Fun for Parents and Children; Fun with Letters for Parents and Children; Fun with Words for Parents and Children; and Fun with Science and Math for Parents and Children.  In addition, there is a workshop to offer to Community Partners; a workshop to train other staff members; and a final workshop on how to create Early Literacy and Learning Spaces.

Watch for upcoming training webinars on subjects related to ECRR which will be offered on July 14, August 22, and November 10. For more information on this project, contact Sue at: sue at kidlitplus.com.

Reflections

For more than 15 years the American Academy of Pediatrics advised parents to avoid screen time completely for children under the age of 2, and to limit screen time to no more than two hours a day for children older than 2. The medical group is now rethinking their position and they are reviewing their guidelines in the era of iPads and apps, realizing that their former guidelines are now outdated.

We purchased the cheaper ones from them ? Battery-Powered 900 MHZ people counter for $400.00 and  did manually counting too since the numbers were so high from before.  Found that the numbers are off quite a bit.  Not like double but we counted 83 it counted 113.  We counted delivers in and out and also staff in and out, etc.   They are very hard to open to replace the batteries too.

If you're willing to spend the money, SenSource sells overhead people counters that are very accurate and are even able to distinguish the difference between adults and children. They cost about $1,800 each and require hardwiring, but again, they are very accurate. Details here:  <http://www.sensourceinc.com/peoplecounters.htm> http://www.sensourceinc.com/peoplecounters.htm

Good afternoon!  If anybody is willing, we're currently looking to gather recommendations for people counters.  We're mostly concerned with getting an accurate count (people don't get counted twice, people walking side-by-side get accurately counted, etc) and having a simple way to retrieve and reset the data.  Thanks!

The U.S. response to Japanese expansionism in China, S.E. Asia, and the Pacific resulted in the firebombing of virtually all of Japan's cities. Despite the destruction, the Japanese government refused to surrender. President Truman ordered the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, causing the surrender of Japan and the end of World War II in the Pacific. Military historian Professor Don Borsand will join us on Thursday, May 26 at 6 pm in the Warren Civic Center Library Conference room to present on this historic event.

Message-ID: <CAG_eJf83bR1PJE_XdCi0jwGm+5J-eONsNGLnpuZcW-De=DJjJw@mail.gmail.com>

Hello,

We are considering starting a hi-lo collection for adults in our library.
Does anyone have an existing collection of high interest, low level books
for adults? If so, how do you shelve the books (interspersed or separate)
and what kind of names have you considered for the collection? We'd like
something obvious to the patron, but nothing that might carry a stigma.
I'd love to hear from anyone with experience in this area, or anyone with
suggestions.

Thanks,

Shannon

Hi all,

During a recent MCLS/LM MeL database webinar, MeL databases eBook Collection<http://galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-ebsco.php?database=EBOOK> and eBook K-8 Collection<http://galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-ebsco.php?database=EBK8> were being discussed.  Both contain fiction and nonfiction eBooks on a variety of topics for readers of all ages.  A question came up as to whether individual libraries can include the over 20,000 available eBook titles in their catalogs and if so, how.  The answer is Yes you can and instructions on the process are explained on the MCLS site.

Start here: http://mcls.org/mel/mel-databases/help/marc-records/

You'll see that MARC records for eBook content from three MeL database vendors, EBSCO, Gale, and LearningExpress Library, can be integrated into local systems. Specific instructions and the appropriate vendor links are included in the instructions.   Have questions or need your MARC Access Key?  Contact the MeL Databases Support Staff<mailto:meldatabaseshelp at mcls.org> and they will provide assistance. 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.

Anybody want single CD kwik cases? I?ve got several hundred. Can?t think of any upcycling crafts to turn them into a kids craft. I am happy to even pay shipping to send them to you, just so I can be rid of them and have my storage space back. I?ve been trying to offload them for a couple years and am loathe to send them to the dump.

Thank you and have a wonderful day,

Hello,

As we work on our Strategic Plan, we are doing environmental analysis of several variables and analyzing how they may impact the Library in the next 5-7 years.

I am interested in your input as I work on a couple areas.


1)    How do you see the balance of digital vs print materials developing by 2022?

2)    How will suburban/urban library usage change by 2022?

For your info, other areas we are looking at...

*      Trends in use of space: quiet vs community; maker vs study rooms; material storage vs open space
*      Trends in services: e-delivery; programs across all age groups; website content
*      Partnerships
*      Changes in staffing and volunteer availability
*      Funding environment
*      Regulatory requirements
*      Patron/community needs
*      Demographics
*      Technology trends
*      Educational trends

Thank you and have a wonderful day,

The Friends of the Plymouth District Library will welcome retired U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Steven Rhodes to speak on Thursday May 12 at 7 pm. After the City of Detroit filed the largest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history Judge Rhodes was appointed to proceed over the hearings. His leadership helped the grand bargain become a reality. Judge Rhodes will share his unique view of Detroit, one year after this important event. No reservations necessary. Please visit http://plymouthlibrary.org for additional information.

Subject: [Michlib-l] MCLS Announces Libraries Read: 1 Book 2016
Message-ID: <45D45B17-6934-4EF9-8801-8A14E879FC3B@mcls.org>

MCLS invites library staff of all types in Indiana and Michigan to participate in an exciting upcoming professional development opportunity.  We will join together once again, both physically and virtually to read and discuss the same book.  With your help, we will select a book that is relevant to our profession, provides thought-provoking ideas for discussion, and has appeal across all types of libraries.

?Last year library staff said they wanted more discussions across multi-types of libraries,? said Randy Dykhuis, MCLS Executive Director.  ?In response, we launched ?Libraries Read: 1 book? in order to create deeper connections among libraries that span geographic and other boundaries.  We will continue the program in 2016, and hope that by participating, libraries will learn more about each other and our profession.?

How this works:

  *   Go to the MCLS Facebook event page at https://www.facebook.com/events/743679075772139/?active_tab=posts and vote for one of four selected titles.  Voting will remain open until May 23, 2016.
  *   MCLS will tally the votes and announce the selected title on June 1, 2016.
  *   Once the title has been selected, MCLS will announce discussions and other events related to the title that will take place throughout the summer of 2016.

What you can do to participate:

  *   Vote for a title and encourage others in your organization to vote
  *   Read the book
  *   Discuss the book at your own staff meetings
  *   Attend regional discussions and other related events
  *   Participate in a live twitter chat about the title

For more information about ?Libraries Read: 1 Book?, visit our Facebook page.

Message-ID: <599938ABFC465D4494B8FFB6DCD71A921B480E27@cmail106.central.cmich.local>

With the financial assistance of the Michigan Humanities Council, the Clarke Historical Library has developed a traveling exhibit discussing Native American treaties and treaty rights in Michigan. The exhibit uses six pull-up exhibit panels, along with printed matter. It discusses what a treaty is and how treaties have been applied to three subjects: land, education, and hunting and fishing. There are also links in the printed material to more extensive essays on these subjects found on the Clarke's website.

The exhibit and printed material are available free of charge, except for the cost of transportation. Also included without charge is a public program discussing these topics, which we hope will lead to a discussion within your community about treaties and treaty rights.

If you are interested in exploring having the exhibit at your institution, please click on the link for more detailed information about the exhibit, including scans of the banners themselves and a pdf version of the printed material: https://www.cmich.edu/library/clarke/PublicPrograms/Current_Exhibit/Pages/NativeAmericanTreaties.aspx

The Clarke has several other exhibits available for loan without charge, except for the cost of transportation.  For a complete list visit: https://www.cmich.edu/library/clarke/PublicPrograms/Current_Exhibit/Pages/Travelling.aspx

Exhibits dates are scheduled on a first-come, first-serve basis. The Native American exhibit is currently being scheduled for two-week shows. Clarke staff would be happy to discuss with you the length of time other exhibits would visit your library.

next Library Director-a leader working strategically with staff, residents
and community organizations creating a shared vision for future library
services and programs.  The successful candidate oversees and manages the
Library's facilities which include the Main Library, the Douglass Branch and
the FriendShop Bookstore.  Serving as Champaign's dynamic community hub, the
Library hosts 1,675+ library and community meetings and events.  Since 2011,
the Library has been an annual Library Journal "four star" library.  In
2014, the Library won the John Cotton Dana Library Public Relations Award
for the Library Foundation's "Show Some Library Love" campaign. Fundraising
efforts resulted in a 30% increase in gifts received and a 60% increase in
dollars raised. With a $6.6 million annual budget and the support of the
Friends of the Library and the Champaign Public Library Foundation, the new
director and staff (69 FTEs) will analyze community needs and recommend
policies, strategies, programs and services to provide new opportunities for
community engagement.  The Library is affiliated with the City of Champaign
and the Director serves as a member of the City's Executive Management Team.
The Library is a member of the Illinois Heartland Library System, a
consortium of 545 member libraries in central and southern Illinois, and
maintains a separate Polaris ILS shared with the Urbana Free Library.

 

Champaign <http://ci.champaign.il.us/>  offers an appealing combination of
big city cultural and recreational amenities and a small friendly city
atmosphere.  Champaign serves a growing city population of 82,000 and county
population of 200,000.  At the intersection of education, innovation, and
micro-urban living, Champaign residents are proud of the city's rich
history, ethnic diversity, and strong sense of tradition; care deeply for
their city; and participate actively in the issues which shape the
community.  Lying within the crossroads of three of the country's largest
cities-Chicago, Indianapolis and St. Louis-Champaign is distinctively placed
in an ideal location.  Champaign owes its vibrant college-town atmosphere to
the presence of the University of Illinois, a top-ranking public university
with a current enrollment over 40,000.  Strong academic programs, including
the #1 ranked Graduate School of Library and Information Science program in
the nation, attract outstanding faculty from across the globe and one of the
largest international student populations in the country.  Additionally,
Parkland College, the exceptional Unit 4 School District, and 15 private and
parochial schools provide excellent educational opportunities.  Champaign
also gains financial stability from a diverse industrial, professional and
economic base, with an emphasis on technology, government and business
employment. The city's neighborhoods offer numerous lifestyle choices
including the urban character of downtown living, charming center-city
neighborhoods, or new subdivisions with spacious homes.  Extensive parks,
bicycle-friendly roads, amateur sports, and a diverse array of artistic and
cultural opportunities contribute to the outstanding quality of life in
Champaign.  For additional information on the Library, the City and the area
see Champaign Links <http://www.gossagesager.com/champaignlinks.htm> .  

 

Responsibilities. The Library Director provides strategic, innovative and
visionary leadership by strategically aligning the interests of the
library's various stakeholders to shape the current and future role of
libraries.  Champaign Public Library's next Director must have the ability
and the desire to work with the Library's Board of Trustees, library staff,
and City Council and staff in developing a workable team approach to
advancing the library as a keystone institution for Champaign.  The
challenge is to develop effective methods to increase and fully embrace
citizen participation as a critical component in library strategies and
programs that add value in education, employment, entrepreneurship,
empowerment, and engagement.  The Director will also engage the community
and other City units in program planning and implementation and manage the
library system in accordance with policies established by the Library Board
of Trustees.  Other responsibilities include planning, directing, and
supervising all aspects of library services, facilities and activities and
being responsible for budgeting, financial administration, personnel
administration, facilities management, development, technology management,
and marketing and community relations.  The Director provides counsel to the
Library Board, proposes and implements policy under the Board's direction,
supervises the work of the Library managers, and collaborates with other
city agencies and community groups and members to meet the information needs
of various constituencies.  

 

Qualifications. An ALA-accredited Master's Degree and a minimum of five
years of progressively responsible experience in library management and
supervision are required; or any combination of education and experience
that demonstrates the ability to successfully perform the requirements of
the position. The ideal candidate will have extensive knowledge of library
practices, management techniques, collection development, and technology
applications and experience working and communicating effectively in a
culturally diverse community.  Demonstrated ability to establish and
maintain effective working relationships with elected officials, advisory
boards, City administration, all levels of employees, diverse community
groups, and citizens is expected. Other desired characteristics include
experience in successfully securing funding for programs and services and
experience in planning and presenting the Library's long-term equipment,
facilities, and staffing needs.  A strong commitment to public service and
high quality customer service delivery is necessary.  Successful experience
working with a policy-making board and collaborating with elected officials
is highly desirable. Complete qualifications are available in the formal Job
Description <http://www.gossagesager.com/champaignjobdesc.pdf> . 

 

Compensation. The starting salary range for the position is $114,055-134,016
(with placement within the range dependent on experience and qualifications)
with an excellent benefits package.

Participating job seeker tips:

Do Your Homework. Before the event, take some time to learn about the organizations attending the career fair. Click here to see a full list of participating employers.<http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTYwNTA5LjU4NzU4MTYxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE2MDUwOS41ODc1ODE2MSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MzAyNjQ0JmVtYWlsaWQ9YmlnZ3N0aG9tYXNkQG1pY2hpZ2FuLmdvdiZ1c2VyaWQ9YmlnZ3N0aG9tYXNkQG1pY2hpZ2FuLmdvdiZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9JiYm&&&111&&&http://www.michiganvirtualcareerfair.com/about/>

Be organized and engaged. Have questions prepared ahead of time that you'd like to ask participating employers. Engage with representatives in the booth group chat room or in a private chat message to keep conversation going and leave the employer with a positive impression of you.

Keep the Dialogue Professional. Even though it is an online event, you should still use complete sentences and proper grammar for chat conversations with potential employers.

Be Patient. Technology is a great tool but it is not a perfect system. Errors and other technical difficulties may arise and cause event attendees to experience delays. In addition, organization representatives may be managing several conversations at once so it could be a few minutes before they can address your question or comment. Interviews are not guaranteed and you may have to go to an employer's external website to apply for positions.

Past participant experiences:

"I live in the Western Upper Peninsula, and was hoping there would have been more telecommuting positions available. However, I did learn a lot about the current job market, where to focus my training and what was available in Lower Michigan if I ever do decide to relocate. Thankfully, I found a solid career locally, and I am sure the Virtual Career Fair did contribute to my success in securing the new position."

"I appreciate your efforts to expose those of us that are unemployed with opportunities to see what is readily available for employment."

"The virtual fair was excellent, had an opportunity to interact with a lot of recruiters on line and learned a lot."

Hi everyone,

I received some really great suggestions! I know many of you asked me to
pass on the answers so I tried to compile the replies in a Word document.
In some cases, I just included the link to the product information.

Thanks again for everyone who replied!

Sincerely,
Keegan

We worked with Marty Klubeck of Knowledge Builders. http://www.mkkb.info/
He didn't do a full strategic planning with us but got us started with
visioning. He can and has done strategic planning with other organizations. He
was very helpful and inspiring too.

He also happens to be our Board President so he has strong understanding of
libraries. (He wasn't Board Pres at time we did planning)

Hi Brian,
 
East Lansing Public Library has used Hartzell-Mika and more recently Char Ezell.  Marianne, Joe and Char were all very good.  Since all of them have backgrounds in libraries they were very good in helping the board, staff and community with the visioning piece.
 
Thank you, Kristin

We're nearing the end of the process working with the Facilitation Center at Eastern Kentucky University (http://facilitation.eku.edu/). They are doing an excellent job. They conducted focus groups and executive interviews with the campus community,  worked with our staff on a SWOT analysis, and helped us develop mission, vision, values, goals and now strategies and action plans. They aren't library experts, but brought someone in to add library expertise to the consultation.

This is the list I used in 2013.  We ended up using Library Strategies out
of St. Paul, affiliated with the St. Paul Friends of the Library.  They had
a very different approach than I had ever used previously, which I really
liked.   This is their web page: http://librarystrategiesconsulting.org/

Message-ID: <8F1D32EF5372924F8DE5FA0DC3FF683FAC24983D@Exchange2010.npl.local>

Professional library shelving, solid wood, needs a good home.  Unit is 82 inches high, 74 inches wide, 21.5 inches deep.

The unit is located in Wixom, Michigan, and is free to anyone who is willing to disassemble it, carry it upstairs, and take it away.  First come, first served.

Contact:  Dr. Jerome T. Walsh.  Phone: 214-415-1251.  (That's a Texas number, but it's a cellphone, and I'm in Wixom closing up a home).

Passing along this info from the Association for Rural and Small
Libraries...

Want to attend a national conference that caters specifically to small and
rural libraries, but just can't afford to get to Fargo, ND out of this
year's budget?  Well, now is the time to apply for one of three ARSL
Conference Scholarships!  Information regarding eligibility and application
forms for the 3 scholarships to  ARSL 2016 are now available on the ARSL
website
<http://arsl.info/annual-conference-awards-calendar/award-scholarship-info-2/>.
The conference is October 27-29th at the Holiday Inn- Fargo. Should  that
link not work, please copy and paste the following into your address bar
http://arsl.info/annual-conference-awards-calendar/award-scholarship-info-2/


Scholarships are for first time attendees only and are open to anyone
regardless of membership. Many scholarship winners in the past have left
the conference knowing that ARSL is definitely for them and have become
repeat attendees.  We hope that this year's winners feel the same way.


Applications must be received by 5:00 pm CST on June 30, 2016 to be
considered. And if you have any questions about the process or have any
trouble with the application form, please do not hesitate to contact the
scholarship committee at scholarship at arsl.info


Good Luck to you!

Genealogy Essentials: Helping Patrons to Search for Family Roots

Thursday, May 19, 2016 ? 3 pm Eastern / 12 pm Pacific ? 1 hour

Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/genealogy-essentials.html



The advent of the Internet liberated genealogy research. With the resulting ease of access, individual genealogy exploration has blossomed. However, many people pay for research services, not realizing that they can go to their public library for free, reliable tools and assistance. This webinar will teach library staff how to assist patrons with genealogical questions, using FamilySearch.org<https://familysearch.org/>, a leading genealogy resource. Learn the reference skills necessary to determine a patron?s research experience and reveal the problem to be solved. Learn how to orient patrons to available resources and introduce them to the principles of finding a record for a known ancestor. Become a better guide to your patron researchers and help them to connect successfully with the details and stories of their ancestry.



Presented by: James Ison, FamilySearch.org<https://familysearch.org/>



Public and Health Sciences Library Collaboration for Community Impact: Lessons from the MS Buddy Project

Thursday, June 9, 2016 ? 3 pm Eastern / 12 pm Pacific ? 1 hour

Registration: http://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/ms-buddy-project.html



When public library and health library expertise combine, amazing things can happen. The MS Buddy service was created by 3 public library staff members and 1 health sciences librarian in Utah, to connect patients with multiple sclerosis to accurate information and to each other through the use of the mobile technology. Join this webinar to learn about this innovative collaboration, its impact, and ways you can build buy-in for health programming at your library. MS Buddy co-creators will share strategies for identifying sustainable solutions for priority health topics, and provide guidance for working together effectively across library disciplines and locations. Participants will be introduced to the program toolkit, which they can use in planning and partnering to implement similar projects in their communities.

Hi all;

Through generous memorials in honor of our long-time librarian, Robin
Haynes, we are starting a digitizing project.  We hope to digitize our
small collection of photos, documents, letters, etc., and to borrow items
from our community to include, too.  We will also be purchasing microfilm
copies of our newspapers to be digitized and added to the project.  It is
our hope to be able to offer an online searchable database once our
collection is digitized.

Subject: [Michlib-l] MeL Minute - Literary Criticism
Message-ID: <BY2PR09MB1095C6B72C907D48857D2355C0730@BY2PR09MB1095.namprd09.prod.outlook.com>

Hi all,

Whether it's asked for as literary criticism or literary analysis, students need to find authoritative resources to support their research on assigned reading authors and specific works. Various MeL databases<http://mel.org/databases> provide just such content.  Research in Context<http://www.galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-gale.php?database=MSIC> may contain what they're looking for.  Within the Literature Category find information on book titles and authors as well as plot structure, characterization, setting, etc.  Search results can include references for plot summary, critical reception and themes and construction, and critical essays. Gale Virtual Reference Library<http://www.galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-gale.php?database=GVRL> contains Literary Themes for Students volumes, Concise Major 21st Century Writers, and Shakespeare for Students, which can be searched individually or as a collection. The eBook<http://galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-ebsco.php?database=EBOOK> and eBook K-8 Collection<http://galesupport.com/migeoipcheck/migeoipcheck-ebsco.php?database=EBK8>s contain Cliffs Notes and other literary criticism resources too. Michigan residents or Michigan library access only.

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

I'm pleased to announce that the Genesee District Library is been awarded a NEA Big Read grant of $14,000 for 2016-2017, selecting Jack London?s The Call of the Wild.  Our kick-off events will feature Creek Stewart, survivalist expert from the Weather Channel?s Fat Guy in the Woods, speaking at two branches on Saturday, September 24th<x-apple-data-detectors://37>.<x-apple-data-detectors://37>  Other programming will include Michael Oakes, a Jack London expert and impersonator, along with various national wolf and dog experts.



We are grateful for our partnerships with the Davison Middle School and Grand Blanc West Middle School which have committed to having their 6th and 7thgrade classes read The Call of the Wild in the fall.  In addition, our partnership with the Flint Youth Theater means that over 800 students will engage with the classic through reading, listening to and experiencing a theatrical interpretation of the classic.

We had Ron Rademacher give a presentation on Michigan Back Roads Trails &
Treasures at our library today and he did a wonderful job. He is very
engaging, reasonable in price and gives information that many people can
use.  This is the second time he has presented here and I would have him
back for another presentation! All the people that attended thoroughly
enjoyed him!

We had him several weeks ago, and our patrons also loved him.  He was 
interesting, informative, and kept the program moving.  We'll definitely 
be looking at having him back sometime in the future.

Eunice covered Academic OneFile in a recent MeL Minute; this message  includes a link to a video and an attachment for your review of the changes to this MeL resource:

As you know, Academic OneFile is getting a little face lift.  I wasn't sure if you were able to join in on the webinars last week about so I thought you may want to watch the on-demand video instead:)

This new feature differentiates our product from others in  the market! To provide users with discipline aligned topics, we leveraged our superior subject indexing and combined it with taxonomies from Cengage Learning's textbooks.  Our Journal Aggregation team worked with subject matter experts to identify discipline related publications enabling us to deliver a smaller focused set of discipline related results.  This new browsing feature adds to the current Academic OneFile experience.  All the familiar searches--like Basic, Advanced, Subject, and Publication--are still available options. Browse by Discipline Gale Blog post<http://blog.gale.com/product-update-for-academic-onefile/?utm_campaign=shareaholic&utm_medium=email_this&utm_source=email>

Additional recent changes and enhancements to the InfoTrac product family include:

*         "Related Resources" a recommendation tool, offers additional content.  At the bottom of article, users will be recommended similar articles of interest.

*         "Did you mean" spell suggestions offer possible search terms after a misspelling renders few or zero results. Helping the user overcome one of the biggest obstacles to a successful search.

*         Based on the success integration of Google Apps for Education, we will be retiring the Gale Account feature for all InfoTrac products.  Users can still access their content through August 2016, but new documents cannot be retained within Saved Documents. View the Gale Blog<http://blog.gale.com/product-update-for-infotrac-products/> for additional information.

*         Based on feedback, we have made InfoTrac products more engaging by adding a splash of color to the home page and subsequent pages.

Below is a link to the on-demand quick preview.....

Message-ID: <a8c88db5537143b09396093460662977@holly.thegdl.org>

The Genesee District Library is celebrating receiving the NEA Big Read grant of $14,000 for 2016-2017, selecting Jack London's The Call of the Wild. Our kick-off event will feature Creek Stewart, survivalist expert from the Weather Channel's Fat Guy in the Woods, speaking at two branches on Saturday, September 24th. Keynote addresses include Michael Oakes, Jack London expert and impersonator from California, along with national wolf and dog experts.



We are grateful for our partnership with two local school districts (Davison Middle School and Grand Blanc West Middle School) that have committed to having their 6th and 7th grade classes read The Call of the Wild in the fall. Another partnership with the Flint Youth Theater means that over 800 students will engage with the text through reading, hearing and experiencing a theatrical interpretation of the classic.



So, yes ... we're celebrating on this lovely Thursday in May. And learning how to howl like a "dog gone wild."

ARH-WOOOO!

 Shelves - 7 1/4" tall & 4 1/2" deep

engaging, reasonable in price and gives information that many people can
use.  This is the second time he has presented here and I would have him
back for another presentation! All the people that attended thoroughly

Join Michigan Libraries for Life 2016!

Registration form: http://bit.ly/ML4L2016.



[smalllogo-01(1) (1).png]


If you could save a life, would you?  Most people would say ?Yes!? without hesitation.  One of the simplest ways to save and improve lives is by supporting organ, tissue, and eye donation.


Since 2010, libraries across Michigan have participated in a simple and effective campaign to educate patrons about donation and transplantation, and to give them an opportunity to join the Michigan Organ Donor Registry<http://bit.ly/ML4Life>. The campaign is called Michigan Libraries for Life<http://www.librariesforlife.org/>. This statewide campaign, which includes public, academic, special and hospital libraries of all sizes, has inspired nearly 2,900 people to sign up as donors!


?Libraries have been great partners in saving and healing lives,? said Rick Hillbom, Gift of Life Michigan?s Interim CEO. ?They?ve been very successful at educating the public about the facts of organ, tissue and eye donation. Thanks to this partnership, Michigan Libraries for Life gives hope to the 3,500 Michigan patients waiting for a life-saving organ transplant.?


More than 95% of Americans<http://organdonor.gov/dtcp/nationalsurveyorgandonation.pdf> support organ, tissue and eye donation. Yet in Michigan, only 54% of adults have joined the state?s donor registry. That discrepancy is largely due to residents not knowing how to properly join the donor registry.  Michigan Libraries for Life helps to address that information need.


?Someone you know probably needs - or will someday need - a lifesaving organ or tissue transplant.  People die waiting because not enough organs are available. Your library can be a great help by registering donors and providing information about organ donation,? said Anne Rau, Capital Area District Library librarian and living kidney donor. ?By participating in Michigan Libraries for Life your library is helping to save lives.?

University of Michigan Shapiro Undergraduate Library 2014


We are excited to bring this lifesaving event back in 2016!  Libraries are welcome to participate by staffing a registration table in their libraries for however long they are able, from just a few hours to all 7 days. This year?s drive will start on Monday, October 3rd and run through Sunday, October 9th. Gift of Life Michigan<http://giftoflifemichigan.org/> will provide a free in-person training for library representatives at the Redford Township District Library on Wednesday, August 17th and a session at their Ann Arbor office on Friday, August 19th. We have also developed web-based training materials for those who are unable to attend the in-person sessions.


?I enjoyed taking part in this well-orchestrated event,? commented one 2015 Michigan Libraries For Life participant. ?I hope to participate again next year.?


The key to this program's success is the participation of many libraries across the state. Your library is warmly invited to join the 2016 Michigan Libraries for Life organ donor registration drive. If your organization would like to participate in this year?s program, please complete this registration form: http://bit.ly/ML4L2016. If you would like more information, please contact us at MichLib4Life at umich.edu<mailto:MichLib4Life at umich.edu> or (734) 936-1394<tel:%28734%29%20936-1394>.

Hello fellow librarians ?

Jean Montgomery, Heidi Nagel and Val Meyerson, are working on an initiative to entice robots to visit every library in the state, all in the same week. We are hoping you may be interested in participating in such an endeavor. We know it?s late in the game for summer planning, but hope you may be willing to host a robot in your library for a visit. This is a great way to make a connection with your local robotics team, promote your STEM programming, and help your local team with more publicity, and who doesn?t love a robot? All you have to do is reach out to your team and ask if they would be willing to do a demo at your library during the week of June 19 ? June 25, 2016. The demo or program plan would be up to you and the team. It could be as little as a robot in your lobby, or a robot playing catch during story-time, or the team demonstrating STEM kits, or 3D printing. It is up to you! I?ve attached a list of teams and typically if you have a team in your area, just search their team name and number and you will find contact information. If you do not have a team in your area, give us a call, and we can help match you up. I?ve also attached some press kit templates which will help get you started with your promotion.

If you are interested and would like assistance in getting a robot match, please contact one of us for assistance. If you are planning an event, please let one of us know, so we can track the participation. For Upper Peninsula assistance contact Jean Montgomery jmontgom at uproc.lib.mi.us<mailto:jmontgom at uproc.lib.mi.us> or 906.228.7697 x3; For South West Michigan assistance, contact Heidi Nagel hnagel at kdl.org<mailto:hnagel at kdl.org> or 616.784.2007; for the SE Michigan and the northern Lower Peninsula, contact Val Meyerson, vmeyerson at petoskeylibrary.org<mailto:vmeyerson at petoskeylibrary.org> or 231.758.3120.

Hi all,

Michigan's seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for April, 2016 was 4.8%.  While good progress has been made and we are actually below the national rate of 5%, there will always be individuals seeking first time jobs or their next opportunity.  A resource that may be useful is found in the MeL Jobs Gateway<http://mel.org/jobs> under Job Posting Sites: National. Glassdoor.com<http://www.glassdoor.com/index.htm> is a "...free inside look at jobs and companies. Salary details, company reviews, and interview questions - all posted anonymously by employees and job seekers." Available for "...library patrons without having to post information of their own."  Statewide Michigan access via MeL is made possible through the library partnership program that 700+ U.S. libraries participate in. A link to their product flyer (to print locally) is included in the description and explains the five steps to find the right job and get hired. 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 free training webinar, "Bridging the summer reading gap using MeL Resources" on May 25, 3:30 - 4pm. Information and registration<http://www.mcls.org/training-events/training-events-list/training-event/?ref_cID=198&bID=0&dd_asId=4640>.

Hello all,

This is a great interview and definitely worth listening to.  It is both informative and encouraging, and David Maturen does a great job explaining the dark store situation and what HB5578 hopes to address.

Hi Folks,

For anyone that hasn't signed up here are more GREAT FREE resources about
how important it is to keep reading aloud in the summer.

Have a great afternoon!

*Subject: *New Read Aloud Summer Campaign Materials

[image: Read Aloud 15 Minutes]

Dear Mary Jo:

While school will soon be out, it is not the time for learning to stop.

   - For little ones, summer is filled with teachable moments and
   opportunities to read aloud.
   - For school age children, summer can be a dangerous slide that erodes
   knowledge built over the school year *or* summer can be a time to make
   gains in knowledge, stimulate imaginations and build enthusiasm for
   learning by reading and reading aloud.


*New Seize the Summer Campaign Materials*

Our new *Seize the Summer *campaign materials are now available in English
and Spanish in our Partner Toolkit
<http://www2.readaloud.org/e/23722/toolkit/3tphxp/1238142114>.  Two new
posters, a parent handout and a bookmark can be used by Franklin Branch
Library to help remind parents to read aloud every day and to take
advantage of the summer programs offered at their local public library.

Read Aloud is proud to partner with the Collaborative Summer Learning
Program <http://www2.readaloud.org/e/23722/2016-05-19/3tphxr/1238142114>
(CSLP) in promoting summer learning programs at libraries all across our
nation.  Please make a special effort to share our parent handout developed
with CSLP with the parents your organization reaches before the end of the
school year.  Libraries offer great summer programs for all ages!

*Coming Next Week*

We will be adding a new reading calendar and a black and white coloring
sheet designed for children to remind their parents and caregivers about
daily reading aloud.

Thank you for all you do to help the parents of children from birth to age
8 better understand the critical role they must play if their child is to
become a successful reader by 3rd grade and a successful learner for a
lifetime.

Best regards,

Bob Robbins, Executive Director

Kathy, we have a 3 part series booked on Alzheimer?s disease (please see
attached flyer). We
are using the Alzheimer?s Association, Michigan Great Lakes Chapter. Their
office number is
734-369-2716. Their website is www.alz.org/mglc.

Both Maggie Gibbons mgibbons at alz.org and Maire DeLand mdeland at alz.org have
been
extremely helpful. Their programs on Alzheimer's disease has been very well
attended at other
locations.

I would recommend them.
Good Luck,
Vickie Weyand

 Police and Libraries
Message-ID: <DM2PR09MB07165A5ABFB39574F2042D43AA4E0@DM2PR09MB0716.namprd09.prod.outlook.com>

A reminder to everyone of the Michigan State Police (MSP) Summer of Safety Campaign. The MSP will be sending promotional materials to libraries in May for use in your summer programming. This will fit in well with the Health, Fitness and Sports Summer Reading theme.

_______________________________________________________


The Michigan Office of Highway Safety Planning (OHSP) is asking Michigan libraries to join us for the second year of the summer traffic safety campaign, Michigan Summer of Safety.



Michigan Summer of Safety is a reminder to all of us to "take safety along for the ride" by driving and boating sober, wearing helmets and reflective gear when biking and riding motorcycles, and always wearing a seat belt. The goal is to reduce traffic fatalities and injuries on Michigan roads by increasing seat belt use and safe summer travel.



In May, OHSP will be mailing all Michigan libraries bookmarks, stickers and a banner.


Libraries can also join the conversation on social media by following OHSP on Facebook and Twitter and using #misummerofsafety to promote safe travels from Memorial Day to Labor Day.  #misummerofsafety will provide a platform for a more significant social media presence and increase your reach on safety messages to your audience.


Additional Michigan Summer of Safety support materials include placemats, flyers and sample social media posts are available for download at www.michigan.gov/ohsp<http://www.michigan.gov/ohsp>. Once you receive your materials, you can order more by contacting Cindy Stoneham at 517-636-4256 or stonehamc at michigan.gov<mailto:stonehamc at michigan.gov>.

Greetings!

I'm writing to invite you to the *4T Virtual Conference on Data Literacy

will give webinars.

*What will 4TDL cover?*
We will cover a variety of topics in the sessions, from statistics basics
to best practices for data visualizations. Content will be geared toward
high school but is also appropriate for instruction to beginning
researchers at the college level.

*When is it?*
Thursday, July 14, and Friday, July 15

*Where do I register?*
Here are: information about the online conference
<http://datalit.sites.uofmhosting.net/conference/>, the schedule

conference is for you.  Want to gain skills in data literacy that will help
you empower your students' comprehension and creation skills? 4TDL will
provide information and resources to support you in teaching in these

The Librarian as Candidate
Every program you do, every book you suggest, every snack you serve costs something. Every hour of every day, every library needs funding and support for the tremendous work you do. Whether you're applying for a grant, asking your Friends or Foundation or taking your budget measure through city council or the voters, you can learn new ways to engage and activate your funding partners. Come and learn from John Chrastka, executive director of EveryLibrary, the first nationwide political action committee for libraries. He will teach you actionable lessons from the campaign trail to help you make the funding-case. You'll learn about tips and tools to market yourself to all your constituents - and not just users - that will help reframe your work in the eyes of your funders.

Call for proposals
Advances in Library Administration and Organization 2017 Volume:  Emotion in the Library Workplace
Series Editor: Samantha Hines, Missoula College at the University of Montana
Volume Editor: Miriam Matteson, Kent State University

Emotions are prevalent in the library workplace leading to many questions and areas of analysis worth exploring. For example, what tools for developing emotional intelligence are used effectively in library workplaces?  How can emotional labor be managed to minimize  the negative effects of emotion work? How can library employees express authentic emotions while still adhering to service expectations? How does dispositional affect ? how one experiences emotions - influence relationships in the workplace? What role does emotion play in effective as well as ideal library leadership and management? In this volume we welcome submissions that consider how emotions or related concepts such as affect, mood, or discrete feelings, intersect with library administration.
The first 2017 volume of Advances in Library Administration and Organization will focus on the role of emotions in the library workplace.  ALAO offers long-form research, comprehensive discussions of theoretical developments, and in-depth accounts of evidence-based practice in library administration and organization.  The series aims to answer the questions, ?How have libraries been managed, and how should they be managed?? It goes beyond a platform for the sharing of research to provide a venue for dialogue across issues, in a way that traditional peer reviewed journals cannot.  Through this series, practitioners can glean new approaches in challenging times and collaborate on the exploration of scholarly solutions to professional quandaries.
We are currently seeking proposals for the 2017 volume on emotions in the library workplace.  If you are interested in being part of this volume, please send a proposal including author details and estimated length of final submission to Samantha Hines at Samantha.hines at umontana.edu<mailto:Samantha.hines at umontana.edu> by July 15, 2016.
Submission deadlines:

Submission deadline for proposals: July 15, 2016

Did you know that public libraries in Michigan can benefit from TRIG (Technology Readiness Infrastructure Grant)<http://22itrig.org/>?

By using the Device Purchasing Program (http://22itrig.org/activities/device-purchasing/) libraries can purchase computers, laptops, tablets and other digital equipment at much lower prices? Last year the Kalamazoo Public Library saved thousands of dollars and even switched our catalog computers to Chromebases for a fraction of the cost!! (http://22itrig.org/downloads/device_purchasing/device-purchasing_april_2016.pdf)

Visit the TRIG Website today (http://22itrig.org)! If you have questions are need help getting started, please email me! You can even sign up for the TRIG newsletter to keep up to date on upcoming important dates!

Thank YOU Star Elementary!

Every once in a great while you receive such a meaningful piece of feedback that you just have to share - that's exactly how the TRIG Operations Office felt about this amazing video put together by one of our Total Site Transformation (TST) Schools in Hastings Area School District, Star Elementary.

From Keith Tramper, Instructional Technologist at Kalamazoo Regional Educational Service Agency : "On behalf of Star School, thank you so much for supporting us through this grant.

Did You Know?
IT Trends from Across the US

In a survey of K-12 IT Leaders from across the country, it was found that the priorities of IT Leaders have recently shifted. As reported in the CoSYN 2016 K-12 IT Leadership Survey<http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001IbLjnf-EUEFUDoXU0cT4sjMwb76y7cQASyoSOqNRifZl_UN0YJUpA70nhaxEEVPqkSaXnpbPW3t1tYS10CtkEIKxb8tHJ1JGmMYErFgLS-8erma_s_XUOJJd4WReDVcL3NPY80G6D_Zf31hBW0lqta5gIN_tMP_8EeVylG7yR5AQ2yO6JHDQles3H3yRGj9RgsHcLRJMYSQO4uJ2-_Qca_iyFQQJAmBy7gMIAuM9R-M=&c=c1Fg9JW8Xrv7BMPD2_H7gwSkIPJu6_cH1VSdvSxiaJ-LSglsQHaBHA==&ch=ux07tYry6QyKwstvdWAJ60H-u_qE0OrevW2sPKQ0tlzBPFxUbbc_zw==>:

"For the past four years, we have asked IT Leaders to indicate their top three priorities (from a list of 20 options). For the first time, "Assessment Readiness" does not appear as one of the top three. That drop-off in the rankings is likely an indicator that districts are now more prepared for online assessments than they have been in the past. This year almost half of all districts (48%) rated themselves as "fully prepared" compared to less than a third (28%) in the prior year. Seventy-five percent (75%) of all districts are either "fully prepared" or "almost ready," indicating a large majority is in good shape for implementing their high-stakes online assessments."

"Taking over as the number one priority for districts is "Broadband & Network Capacity." This makes sense in light of the other two priorities in the top three-Wireless Access and Mobile Learning. The three priorities are intrinsically linked. The infrastructure that pursuit of these three priorities enables would provide for online assessment, which could explain the de-emphasis on "Assessment Readiness."

I would like to hear from libraries that have done or are doing literacy programs; for either children or adults. I have a volunteer who is newly retired, has a lot of experience in this area and would like to start a program at our library.? Neither of us know how to begin such an undertaking so I'm asking for direction in getting started on this.? Any or all help would be appreciated.? Even guidance to some good online resources would be welcome.? Thanks.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Library Snapshot Day June 13-17 #MiLibSnap
Message-ID: <BY2PR09MB10640DCE9DE4BF1931C4B93FFE4F0@BY2PR09MB1064.namprd09.prod.outlook.com>

The Library of Michigan is spearheading an American Library Association (ALA) initiative this summer called Library Snapshot Day. It's a time for libraries to get out and use data to demonstrate the value and impact they have on their communities. In Michigan we're going to share this data via social media. Participation takes place during the week of June 13-17.

You can participate one day or every day, and contribute via social media such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pinterest using the hashtag #MiLibSnap.

The event is scheduled after conference season and is well situated to support summer reading participation. We suggest that you pull stats out of your annual report or collect data such as door counts between now and snapshot day. The objective is to share the impact of your library on your community in eye-catching ways.

Some ideas for demonstrating that impact include: Use photos of the staff and facilities to personalize and put a face on your library; promote programming activities, outreach events, author tours, genealogy, and local history resources; and use stats such as circulation numbers or door counts to make your point. Get creative. You already know what you do best.

and tradition, the Charleston community is growing in diverse ways thanks to
a high quality of life recognized by residents and visitors, who make
Charleston one of the world's top destinations.  Charleston offers something
for everyone. It has charming, preserved neighborhoods with historic forts,
homes and churches as well as world-class art galleries, inviting beaches,
world-famous golf courses, award-winning restaurants and a plethora of fun
activities that draw thousands of new residents and visitors annually.  The
community also offers high-quality health care, an involved business
community and solid educational opportunities that make it a great place to
live, work and play.  For more information on Charleston County, the Library
and the region, please visit Charleston links

Responsibilities.  Planning and directing all phases of library operations -
financial, personnel, facilities and business for the library system;
advising and guiding division heads on successes and solutions; working
closely with the Library board, Charleston County administrator, and elected

The Connecticut State Library is withdrawing our set of the West's Michigan Digest.  If you are interested in acquiring them, we will send them to you for the cost of shipping or accept a UPS/FedEx pickup.

We cancelled our subscription in 2011 due to budget cuts so not all of the latest volumes are available.  The set is updated with the 2011 pocket parts.

If you need any volumes or would like an additional set, please let me know.

Attached is a list of volumes.

Best Regards,
Diane

Subject: [Michlib-l] 6.3.16 Michigan Notable Book's Event at the Alpena
 County Public Library
Message-ID: <33453a56-0a2e-7bab-ed7d-a8d8498b2ffc@alpenalibrary.org>


The Alpena County George N. Fletcher Public Library will be hosting an 
author visit with Jack Lessenberry on Friday, June 3rd  at 1:00 pm. Mr. 
Lessenberry is the co-author of the book, /The People?s Lawyer, The Life 
and Times of Frank J. Kelley, the Nation?s Longest-Serving Attorney 
General/, published by Wayne State University Press in September 2015. 
The afternoon?s discussion will focus on former Michigan Attorney 
General Frank Kelley; why he was so important, and why his story 
deserves to be told.

The Library is especially thrilled to be facilitating this event given 
Frank Kelley?s connection to Alpena. He moved with his family from 
Detroit to Alpena in 1954, establishing a private law practice. He 
handled a wide variety of cases and quickly became a well-respected 
member of the community.  Two years after moving to the city, he was 
appointed city attorney.His achievements in this role were recognized as 
Alpena voters supported him in each election. In the late fall of 1961, 
Kelley received a call from Governor John Swainson?s office informing 
him he was on the short list for the position of Michigan Attorney 
General. He was sworn in as the state?s Attorney General on January 2^nd 
, 1962, serving until 1999. Kelley?s tenure transformed the office into 
an advocate and active crusader for the people of the State of Michigan.

A Detroit native, Jack Lessenberry originally intended to become a 
historian, but recognized that he wanted to become a journalist during 
his graduate studies at the University of Michigan.Since then, he has 
accumulated nearly forty years of journalism experience in every medium 
from newspapers to the internet.

Among his favorite memories are of interviewing Gerald Ford about 
Watergate in 1995 and winning a national Emmy for a documentary about 
Jack Kevorkian in 1994. Lessenberry and Frank Kelley met in 2010, as 
Kelley was winding down his career as an attorney, government relations 
consultant, and lobbyist. His impact as a titan of Michigan legal 
history and precedents undoubtedly inspired Mr. Lessenberry to 
collaborate on this memoir.

Lessenberry?s visit is part of the Library of Michigan?s 2016 ?Michigan 
Notable Authors Tour.?

Attached is a poster detailing the event.

The Shaker Heights (OH) Public Library seeks a creative and dedicated leader to serve as Library Director. Shaker Heights is a friendly and diverse city bordering Cleveland. As one of Cleveland?s oldest suburbs, it was a planned community, envisioned as a suburban oasis from the industrial environment of its large neighbor. Today residents enjoy the plentiful green spaces, range of housing options and great schools that resulted from decades of careful planning. Plus, they are just minutes away from the many amenities offered by Greater Cleveland!

The library serves approximately 32,300 residents from a Main Library and one branch location. Residents are passionate about the library and it is a huge presence in the community. Per-capita circulation is extremely high, and there is a healthy demand for many different programs and services to meet the needs of the diverse population. The library is part of CLEVNET, a consortium of more than 40 library systems in Northeast Ohio that share resources and a catalog.

Please visit www.johnkeister.com/shaker/ <http://johnkeister.com/shaker/> for details, inquiries and to apply.

For full consideration, please apply by June 24. We welcome and encourage inquiries. Minimum salary of $105,000; negotiable based on experience and qualifications.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Larry Martin's WWII In Their Own Words at Northville
Message-ID: <53998130.14326430.1464269853423.JavaMail.root@northvillelibrary.org>

Colleagues, 
  Tuesday night the Northville District Library hosted Larry Martin's WWII in Their Own Words as he shared Francis Angier's dramatic story with our audience of 144. (Francis Angier was a B-17 bomber pilot and POW with the Mighty Eight Air Force in England.) Larry brought many artifacts with him, showed his hour-long interview with Francis, and answered many questions. We also had three local WWII veterans in the audience who spoke a little about their opinions and experiences. Based on the enthusiastic response to this important and moving program, I'll be inviting Larry back for another program in the future. I would highly recommend that you contact him to present at your library, if you have not already.
  You can learn more about his work and contact him on his website at http://lmww2.com/

Thank you, 
Wendy Mutch 
Northville District Library

Hi all;

Sorry for the delay in getting a recap of my original inquiry about
digitization projects.

Let me first say "Thank You!" to all who responded - your info was very
helpful.

Results:
Several libraries use Sanilac Computing Products (Digital Totes).  They
offer digitizing and hosting of a searchable database.  I had a web demo
with Michael Soflin this morning and was very impressed with this service.
Cost: $850 per year (flat rate) for hosting the searchable database.
Digitizing costs vary depending on items but seem reasonable.  Digital
Totes can be found on Facebook or you can contact Michael at 810-648-3200,
msoflin at scpweb.com, or www.scpweb.com

Others used Graphic Sciences of Madison Heights.  They also offer
digitizing and hosting of a searchable database.  I have not made contact
with them yet, so I can't give any details.  The libraries who use them
said they are fair-priced - one library said the process too longer than
planned but they are satisfied with the results.

The other libraries who responded mentioned Clarke Historical Library
(CMU).  I knew they have worked extensively on newspapers and microfilm,
but did not know that they are now working with digitizing and online
databases.  I planned to contact them about purchasing copies of our local
newspapers, but will also be looking at other options they offer.

One library talked about a software option called "Past Perfect" - for 1
price you could possibly scan and run your own database.  I did look this
up to see if this was an option I would consider.  For my library, I don't
think so.  First, the software is designed mainly for museums - it could
very well work fine for libraries, but I prefer to go with an option that
is designed specifically for libraries.  Second, I am not a computer tech -
I would prefer to have someone who knows what they are doing host my
library's database.  But of course, that is my opinion - this option may
work for you.

Thank again for all who responded to my request.  I hope this info helps
others who are considering digitizing options, too.

Lake Odessa annually hosts a fair, Girls' Night Out, Art in the Park, an antique car show, and Fall Festival.  Lake Odessa and its small town neighbors of Sunfield, Woodland and Clarksville form the Lakewood Public School system that offers rich opportunities in education, sports, music and drama.  Nearby are several recreational lakes and golf courses. Lake Odessa is situated 7 miles south of I-96, between Lansing and Grand Rapids, offering quiet country living yet convenient to larger urban environments.

The Lake Odessa Community Library is formed as a District Library.

Subject: [Michlib-l] Personal Property Tax Reimbursement News
Message-ID: <BY2PR01MB18321D36FDD81189192CC64DDC410@BY2PR01MB1832.prod.exchangelabs.com>

This is from today's MLA Advocacy Update. Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns.
Libraries are Entitled to 100% Reimbursement of Millages Lost to the Personal Property Tax (PPT) Repeal
Many libraries are struggling to get answers about their Personal Property Tax millage reimbursement. The Michigan Department of Treasury, today, assured me there is enough funding in the Local Community Stabilization Authority to reimburse all millages at 100% including libraries. Yes, libraries will be reimbursed.

The state of Michigan is reimbursing municipalities and if the city, township or other municipality is your taxing authority, they are required to automatically reimburse the library. District libraries will be reimbursed directly. We are finding that a number of municipalities do not understand that libraries should be included in the efforts. In fact, some are under the impression that only essential services can be reimbursed. If your local governing authority staff are unaware, encourage them to contact the Michigan Department of Treasury.

It is important to note that the lowest millage rate levied between 2012 and 2015 will be the amount reimbursed to the library.

Librarians and MLA fought long and hard to get libraries included in the PPT reimbursement two years ago. We were able to get libraries included in PA 86 of 2014. It was part of a 10-bill package that provided for reimbursement to those entities being harmed by the elimination of the PPT. Senate Bill 821 took effect when proposal 14-1 State Use Tax - Ballot Issue passed in August of 2014.

Thank you to the many MLA members and our Governmental Consultant Services Inc. (GCSI) lobby team who advocated so fervently for libraries on this issue.

Fun with Letters for Parents and Children

One of the Every Child Ready to Read Workshops that you can present to a group of parents who are accompanied by their children is Fun with Letters for Parents and Children. Here is a brief look at the workshop.

For the workshop you will be using the following books: alphabet books; musical CD's with songs about letter names and sounds; letter puzzles (I recommend those made by Melissa and Doug); and magnetic or foam letters (Lakeshore Learning has some nice magnetic letters, both giant magnetic upper and lower case letters.)

In this workshop (as every other workshop), you will explain the five simple practices: Talking; Singing, Reading, Writing, and Playing. Then you sing an easy song that will include the names of the children that are in attendance. Example (Sung to Bingo): There is a child that I know best, and Rocky is his name oh. R-o-c-k-y, R-o-c-k-y, R-o-c-k-y, And Rocky is his name oh.

This workshop emphasizes not only learning the names of the 26 letters, but also learning which names go with which letter shapes, both uppercase and lowercase.

Talking

For this practice, you explain what environmental print is and have children identify certain letters. You can even play the "I Spy" game and have children find objects that begin with a certain letter in the room.

Singing

Next, sing the alphabet song. Remember to sing the letters "L,M,N,O,P" a little slower, so they think it is not just one letter. Another way to sing the alphabet song that will less confusing to young children when you get to above letters is to sing the song to the tune of "Mary Had A Little Lamb."  Try it! While singing the song, display your magnetic or foam letters at the same time.

Reading

Present some SIMPLE alphabet books that are not confusing to children who are just learning their letters. One of the alphabet Golden Books has just been re-released and it would be a good choice. Either way, choose a book that shows one letter per page and that depicts one object per page. Golden Book: My ABC Book by Art Seiden. ISBN: 978-0-448-48215-6.

Writing

Encourage parents to start with uppercase letters first, and then proceed to lowercase letters. The parent should start by using their child's first name. Explain that they can print their child's name in large letters, and have their child trace over them. You can also explain how families can make a simple alphabet book, or if time permits, have the families make an alphabet book during the workshop. Here are other examples you can share: using chalk to write letters on a chalkboard or sidewalk; making letters out of cardboard, putting the letter under a piece of paper, and coloring over the letter with caryons, watching the letter appear; writing letters in shaving cream; having the child help handwrite a letter to a friend or relative.

Playing

For Play, the manual recommends playing the Letter Day Game. Here is how it is suggested you have the parents play this game with their children.

Tell your child that today is the letter ____ day. For example, the "mmm" sound. Tell your child that you both are going to look for things that begin with "mmm." The child has to think of or find words that have the same sound on his or her own. Again, use picture books, things around the house, or things you and your child can see anywhere. Praise your child's success. Give him or her a little help if needed. For example, if your child is having a hard time, you might say "Well, here's a bird. Bird starts with the 'buh' sound." "What else can you think of that starts with the 'buh' sound?"

Reflections

In 2015, the Association for Library Service to Children revised the Competencies for Librarians Serving Children in Public Libraries. The document can be found online at the ASLC website. The first article listed under "Programming Skills" is that children's librarians should "Design, promote, present, and evaluate a variety of programs for children, with consideration of developmental stages....."

A great site to explore developmental stages for children ages one to three can be found here:

http://to.pbs.org/1zxDRaz<http://links.govdelivery.com:80/track?type=click&enid=ZWFzPTEmbWFpbGluZ2lkPTIwMTYwNTI2LjU5NTQzMTQxJm1lc3NhZ2VpZD1NREItUFJELUJVTC0yMDE2MDUyNi41OTU0MzE0MSZkYXRhYmFzZWlkPTEwMDEmc2VyaWFsPTE3MzA4Nzc1JmVtYWlsaWQ9cmVpc2hrQG1pY2hpZ2FuLmdvdiZ1c2VyaWQ9cmVpc2hrQG1pY2hpZ2FuLmdvdiZmbD0mZXh0cmE9TXVsdGl2YXJpYXRlSWQ9JiYm&&&100&&&http://www.pbs.org/parents/child-development/baby-and-toddler/>

Under each age you can click on the following categories and get lots of great information for that child's age. Categories are: Approaches to Learning, Creative Arts; Language, Literacy, Mathematics, Physical Health, Science, and Social and Emotional Growth. For example, you can click on Literacy and find what is appropriate for that age child in relation to phonological awareness, book knowledge and appreciation, print awareness and concepts, alphabet knowledge, and writing. Under Creative Arts, you can find examples of art activities you could do with that age child at the end of a storytime program.

New Book of the Month

More-igami. By Dori Kleber. Candlewick Press, 2016.

ISBN: 978-0-7636-6819-8. $15.99.

One of the important reasons to share picture books with children (Or the "Read," in ECRR's five practices of Talk, Read, Sing, Write & Play) is the exposure to new vocabulary. For every 1,000 words that a parent speaks, only approximately nine of them are "rare" or "unusual" words. Picture books introduce children to three times as many "rare" words as speech they hear from an adult or on television etc.

This book introduces the concept of "origami" in a way that even young children can understand. And, the characters are very diverse: the main character, Joey, is African American; Joey learns how to do origami from one of his classmates' Japanese American parent; and he is given an opportunity to practice origami on napkins at his favorite restaurant by the Mexican American owner. After sharing the book, you can proceed with an origami art extension. At the back of the book are very clear directions on how to make an origami ladybug. Though children may need some help from their parents, they can still make some folds and decorate the ladybug.

One of the important skills that preschool children need to develop before reaching school is narrative skills. Narrative skills allows for expressive language, and includes a child being able to describe things, tell events and retell stories. In a storytime setting, after telling a story, you might consider sharing a felt board or magnetic board version of the same story. Children can then retell the story. Here is a great site for patterns. Some are very easy to reproduce. For example, Pete the Cat: Rocking in His School Shoes, is done completely in color so you can print off the patterns and use them immediately. There are many other familiar stories including: The Very Busy Spider; I'm the Biggest Thing in the Ocean; Dear Zoo; Where's Spot?; There Was An Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly; Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?; The Very Hungry Caterpillar; and Chicka Chicka Boom Boom.

*Chelsea Named to Book Lover?s List!*



Chelsea, MI ?With the help of Chelsea District Library, the town of Chelsea
was named one of AboutGreatBooks.com?s ?30 Great Small Towns for Book
Lovers?. The list includes towns from all over the US, who offer unique
ways for book-lovers to experience literature first-hand.  Chelsea was the
only town from the state of Michigan to be honored.



Towns were chosen for their ability ?to make you feel ? ?in some mysterious
way? ? a little closer to the words on the page,? reads the
AboutGreatBooks.com article. Chelsea?s mysterious way is through its annual
Midwest Literary Walk (MLW) created and hosted by the Chelsea District
Library. The annual event is held the last Saturday in April and showcases
nationally acclaimed authors and poets throughout downtown venues.  The
event grows each year, and the 8th annual MLW was no exception. More than
200 literary fans ?pilgrimaged? to Chelsea to hear this year?s stellar
lineup, which included Paula McLain, bestselling author of *The Paris Wife*
and *Circling the Sun*.



?One of the delights of this event is that you can make a whole day of it!
While the incredible lineups bring you to town, Chelsea?s wonderful
restaurants, shops and recreational areas will keep your attention
throughout the day!? says Lori Coryell, Chelsea District Library Director.



The complete article ?30 Great Small Towns for Book Lovers? can be found at
www.aboutgreatbooks.com/features/small-towns-book-lovers. For more
information about next year?s Midwest Literary Walk visit
www.midwestliterarywalk.org. To plan your next visit to Chelsea go to
www.chelseamich.org.



About Us: Chelsea District Library is nonprofit organization whose mission
is to provide equal access to quality resources that serve the lifelong
cultural, educational and informational needs and interests of all people.

City of Chelsea plus Dexter, Lima , Lyndon and Sylvan townships and more
than 20,000 individuals visit the Library each month.  For more information

Hello Everyone,
I saw this article and felt it says so much about why we (and our Cities) are struggling.  I know it's not a direct impact for many of us, but it is indicative of the environment in which we "live".  I hope this isn't too political.  Here's the link:

Press Release, Addison Twp. Public Library

Local YA Author Panel at Addison Township Library
As part of its Summer Reading Program, the Addison Township Public Library is excited to host an author panel with four young adult authors from around Michigan:  Ava Jae, Bethany Neal, Laura Wolfe and Sarah Zettel.  The panel will take place on Saturday, July 9 at 4 p.m. and will also include a Q&A with the audience and book signing by the authors.  

Ava Jae?s debut YA novel, ?Beyond the Red,? which came out in March, is a sci-fi adventure with aliens, politics, rebellion and romance.  Ava lives in Ann Arbor and is also an editor, as well as being an active blogger/vlogger on all things reading and writing.  

Bethany Neal writes ?young adult fiction with a little dark side and a lot of kissing.?  Another Ann Arbor resident, Bethany?s book ?My Last Kiss? is the story of a ghost who must discover what really happened on the night of her death.

Laura Wolfe, an equine enthusiast, lives in Milford.  Her YA debut, ?Trail of Secrets,? a fascinating mystery set at a fictional Michigan horse camp, was a Finalist in the 2016 Indie Book Awards First Novel Under 80,000 Words category.  She has also recently published a children?s picture book, ?Henrietta?s Hoof Polish.?

Sarah Zettel is an award-winning fantasy, science fiction and mystery author, and writes for both adults and teens, having published fourteen novels and many short stories.  Her most recent contributions to the YA genre include the ?American Fairy? trilogy, set during the Dust Bowl, and the ?Palace of Spies? trilogy, a mystery series in the time of King George I.

?We are thrilled to be featuring such great local talent,? said Addison Township Library Director Jaema Berman.  ?We hope this will be a great opportunity for local teens and young adults to see what we have to offer, and to allow them to connect with authors in their communities.?  This event is free and open to the public, but registration is recommended by calling the library at (248) 628-7180.

	June 2
Message-ID: <021e01d1b791$3b6fab10$b24f0130$@uproc.lib.mi.us>

Michigan Notable Author to Visit Bayliss Library

Bayliss Public Library is fortunate to be selected this year to host a 2016 Michigan Notable Author. Adam Schuitema, from Grand Rapids, will speak at the library on Thursday, June 2 at 7 p.m. He is the author of the novel Haymaker, set in the U.P., and the short-story collection Freshwater Boys. Both were named Michigan Notable Books by the Library of Michigan. 

 

Adam earned his MFA and Ph.D. from Western Michigan University and is an Associate Professor of English at Kendall College of Art and Design. His 2016 Michigan Notable Book, Haymaker, will be the topic of his program. 

 

In a political culture infused with debates about personal liberties, the role of government, and even the definition of ?freedom? itself, Haymaker tells the story of a fictional Michigan town (located in the area east of Grand Marais) that becomes the flashpoint for some of the principal ideological debates of our day. A town first settled by lumberjacks, prostitutes, and roughnecks, Haymaker?s present becomes as volatile as its past. Haymaker is a story about the failure of best intentions and the personal freedom of individuals to do good or to harm. 

 

This witty and politically charged novel will interest those looking for an entertaining fictional account of a situation that could plausibly play out in one of the many small, remote towns in this country. 

 

Author Robert James Russell has said that ?Adam Schuitema has created his Winesburg, Ohio for a new generation.? For more information on Adam and his writing, see  <http://www.adamschuitema.com> www.adamschuitema.com.

 

For the past 25 years, the Library of Michigan has selected its annual 20 Michigan Notable Books that highlight Michigan people, places and events. The books, published the previous calendar year, are about or set in Michigan or the Great Lakes region, or are written by a Michigan author. Selections include nonfiction and fiction books that appeal to a variety of audiences and cover various topics and issues close to the hearts of Michigan residents. 

 

The Book Tour is sponsored by the Library of Michigan, the Library of Michigan Foundation, the Michigan Humanities Council, the Michigan Department of Education, Meijer, Michigan Center for the Book, and other sponsors. For more information about the MNB program, visit  <http://www.michigan.gov/notablebooks> www.michigan.gov/notablebooks.

 

There will be copies of Adam Schuitema?s book for sale and signing. The Friends of Bayliss Library will provide refreshments. A lobby display coordinated with the Chippewa County Historical Society will be on view. 

 

Bayliss Public Library, an affiliate of Superior District Library, is located at 541 Library Drive, Sault Ste. Marie. For more information about the library, contact  <mailto:sjames at baylisslibrary.org> sjames at baylisslibrary.org or 906-632-9331, or check  <http://www.baylisslibrary.org> www.baylisslibrary.org or Facebook.

All,

I am pleased to report that since our May 24 go live, the number of hits to the newly redesigned MAP website is a bit over 21,000. Not bad when you consider that the total number of hits to the old site in the previous twelve months was about 560,000. Our goal is 1,000,000 hits this year, and we are certainly off to a strong start in that regard.

Also, please welcome our newest partner to MAP! A great big hello to the Outdoor Adventure Center, Michigan Department of Natural Resources, http://www.michigan.gov/oac/ our 429th MAP destination.

Thank you for your support and promotion of the Michigan Activity Pass program.

Sincerely,

Jim Flury

Presque Isle District Library Invites Book Lovers to 'Read All About It'
with Author Scott M. Peters

 

Presque Isle District Library welcomes Scott M. Peters - author of Making
Waves: Michigan's Boat-Building Industry, 1865-2000 (University of Michigan
Press). Peters will make a special visit to the Rogers City library at 7:00
pm on Thursday, June 16, for an evening of first-rate storytelling; book
signing and question-and-answer time with guests. 

 

Peters is visiting the Rogers City library as part of the Library of
Michigan's 2016 "Michigan Notable Authors Tour." This year, several authors
whose engaging works were chosen as 2016 Michigan Notable Books selections
will visit nearly 50 libraries throughout the state. 

 

The Presque Isle District Library, Rogers City is located at 181 E. Erie
Street, Rogers City. For details about this author event, call 989-734-2477
or visit the website at www.pidl.org. 

 

"It's a literary treat to have Scott M. Peters in our community, sharing his
captivating work with our friends and neighbors in such an open, accessible
way," said Anne Belanger, Program Director. "Michigan is home to some of the
best stories and storytellers found anywhere in the country. An author of
Scott M. Peters' caliber here, in our library, will make it an evening to
remember." 

 

"This year's Michigan Notable Books delve into wonderfully diverse topics
and offer something of interest for just about everyone," said State
Librarian Randy Riley. "The tour offers the opportunity for book enthusiasts
in many corners of the state to join in the conversation about what
constitutes 'great writing' and to hear from some of the Great Lakes
region's most beloved authors." 

 

Scott M. Peters was born and raised in Flint, Michigan, and graduated from
the University of Michigan-Flint with a degree in History. He received a
master's degree in History and Museum Studies from Case Western Reserve
University in Cleveland, Ohio, and interned at the Great Lakes Historical
Society. He has worked at the Alfred P. Sloan, Jr. Museum in Flint, the
International Center for Artificial Organs and Transplantation in Cleveland,
and for the past 30 years at the Michigan Historical Museum, where he is the
Curator of Collections. Scott's passion for boating came from many rides in
boats as a child on Hubbard Lake, and he became interested in Great Lakes
shipping from camping excursions near the Soo Locks and at Algonac State
Park. He has written articles on maritime subjects for Michigan History and
other journals. 

 

Michigan Notable Books is designed to promote reading and raise awareness of
Michigan's literary heritage. The program annually selects 20 of the most
outstanding books published in that year - titles that are reflective of
Michigan's diverse ethnic, historical, literary and cultural experience. 

 

The 2016 Michigan Notable Books program and tour are made possible thanks to
the generous support of the Library of Michigan, the Library of Michigan
Foundation, Michigan Department of Education, the Michigan Humanities
Council, Meijer, and the Michigan Center for the Book. Media Sponsors are
Mittenlit.com, City Pulse, Dome, Queue Advertising and Tom Gennara
Photography.

    * Experience and learn how to use screen printing, letterpress, and 3D printing tools in the Ann Arbor District Library's Secret Lab. 
    * Apply and level up your comics-making skills with a fun, interactive workshop.

hello to each of you!
Houghton Lake Public Library is pleased to announce that we have been selected by the major library vendor, Demco, to pilot a new fundraising effort that they are hoping to build for libraries across America that will work to benefit our library sevice to the children in our community.

HLPL is ideally situated on the Houghton Lake Community School campus and has become a popular after school destination for the students. Our recent re-design has given us more space and more students. To create a truly engaging environment that continues to attract students we are enhancing out hangout space. The greatest need in this effort is to provide additional seating. Through a generous grant from one of our vendors, for every 4 chairs we fund, they will provide a 5th one for free. Help us to take advantage of this opportunity!

	in the Upper Peninsula
Message-ID: <01b001d1bb76$4023d440$c06b7cc0$@uproc.lib.mi.us>

We are very pleased to announce that.

 

SUPERIOR DISTRICT LIBRARY ONE OF 77 ORGANIZATIONS NATIONWIDE TO RECEIVE AN
NEA BIG READ GRANT

 

The Superior District Library, made up of eight libraries throughout the
Eastern Upper Peninsula, is a recipient of a grant of $9,000 to host the NEA
Big Read in our various communities. A program of the National Endowment for
the Arts, the NEA Big Read broadens our understanding of our world, our
communities, and ourselves through the joy of sharing a good book. The
Superior District Library is one of only 77 nonprofit organizations
nationwide to receive a grant to host an NEA Big Read project between
September 2016 and June 2017. The NEA Big Read will focus on The Stories and
Poems of Edgar Allan Poe. Activities will take place during September and
October of 2016. 

 

Jane Chu, chairman of the National Endowment for the Arts, said, "I have the
opportunity to travel around the country and see the way the arts can
inspire, allow for reflection, and create new experiences. I look forward to
the creative ways these 77 organizations will bring their communities
together around a great work of literature through their participation in
the NEA Big Read."

 

Managed by Arts Midwest, the NEA Big Read offers grants to support
innovative community reading programs designed around a single book. The
program supports organizations across the country in developing
community-wide reading programs which encourage reading and participation by
diverse audiences. Organizations selected to participate in the NEA Big Read
receive a grant, access to online training resources and opportunities, and
educational and promotional materials designed to support widespread
community involvement.

 

The Superior District Library will be partnering with various local
organizations, including Lake Superior State University, the Kenneth J.
Shouldice Library of LSSU, the Chippewa County Historical Society, the Upper
Peninsula Paranormal Research Society, and the Ojibwe Learning Center and
Library.  Programs will be for all age groups, across our eight communities,
and will include books talks, author visits with Frederick Stonehouse,
cemetery walks, story times and programs, presentations by the UPPRS, trivia
nights, school programs, and much more.  Times and dates will be announced
soon on the Superior District Library Facebook page, as well as our
affiliate libraries.

 

Our kickoff event is scheduled for Sunday, September 11th from 1:00pm-4:00pm
at the Crow's Nest in the Cisler Center on the Lake Superior State
University's campus.  The event will be a family oriented Open House,
complete with refreshments one would have seen at a typical 1830's afternoon
tea, games and activities, and perhaps even a visit from Edgar Allan Poe
himself.  The event is free and open to the public, and parking will be
available on campus.

Message-ID: <8EE24ACF5C2B5945AF776E39181A0095496691B9@EXCH.wb.local>

Hello Everyone,

We received the email below, asking to give a class on essential oils. Given that it is a controversial topic for ?health? (i.e. some think they can ?cure? ailments and others consider it snake oil), I am wondering:


1)    If any of you have had essential oil classes at your library and did you limit how they presented the info?

2)    Do you have any policies about what ?health? classes are allowed or not allowed?

3)    Do you get complaints if you don?t allow such a class or complaints if you DO allow them?


FYI, I use essential oils, so I am pro-oil ? but I don?t talk about them at work and know the FDA has communicated with Young Living Oils regarding miscommunication of essentials oils? ability to ?cure? or ?treat? illnesses. This is a quagmire I went to be very careful about wading into at the public library. http://www.fda.gov/ICECI/EnforcementActions/WarningLetters/2014/ucm416023.htm
Thoughts and feedback are appreciated.

Original email:
Hi - I am interested in teaching a class at the library, if you are interested.  I am passionate about educating people on how to use essential oils take care of their families naturally.  I noticed you have a variety of events and classes on the online calendar.  I would love the opportunity to teach some classes on essential oils.  Please let me know if you are interested.

Thank you,

Thank you and have a wonderful day,
Nyama
