Hi,
I have seen a performance by the Organization for Bat

Happy Thursday!

We are interested in doing some cooking programs at the
library. Are there rules that need to be followed, such as
having a commercial kitchen, health inspection, etc?

Thanks in advance for your responses!

Hi All,

 

We could use some regular single DVD cases if anyone has any
that they are not using and would like to share with us. We
are ZV253 Otsego District Public Library. 



Also, we have a box of slim DVD cases that we do not need.
If you can use them, let me know and I will send them to
your library.

 

Thanks,

Andrea

Hello,
Does anyone have any suggestions for a live animal
performer/act who might be willing to make the trek to Mt
Pleasant in October?  We are specifically looking for live
spiders/snakes/other gross things to tie in with Halloween.
I would greatly appreciate any contacts you would be willing
to share with us!
Thanks!

Subcommittees to Save, Cut or Kill Library Funding

After months of advocacy around the Library Services and
Technology Act (LSTA) and the Innovative Approaches to
Literacy (IAL) program "Dear Appropriator" letters, the
appropriations process has moved into the hands of two key
House and Senate Appropriations Subcommittees. This places
the fate of critical library funding programs in the hands
of fewer than three dozen members of Congress from 25
states. The next critical juncture for FY 2018 federal
library funding will come when the House and Senate
appropriations subcommittees with jurisdiction over IMLS and
those critical programs meet to vote on what to cut and
which programs to fund at what specific levels.

Right now, the members of the "Labor HHS" Subcommittees are
working on the FY18 budget. MLA members and library
supporters who live in Michigan's 4th Congressional District
please contact Rep. John Moolenaar through the ALA
Legislative Action Center

For some of you, this MeL Minute will look familiar. It's
the same one we sent out last week. But the response was so
low that we're concerned it got lost amidst the holidays so
we are re-issuing it. We need your help!



The Library of Michigan has engaged a professional  film
crew to produce three videos about the Michigan eLibrary.
They will be 2-4 minutes in length and feature schools,
library staff, library buildings, and patrons. We plan to
take what we learned from the successful business
videos<https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLsiX4lmeyL4AkS
n_DRZX1TgO3faZQ3Vhp> that we produced last year and parlay
that into this new series. And we're looking to you for
great stories to include!



One video will talk about how valuable MeLCat is to the
residents of the state. We want to tell the story of how
MeLCat increases the capacity of even the tiniest Michigan
library to provide millions of books and other library
resources to their residents. We're doing something that
benefits 10 million people and it involves 90% of the public
libraries and almost all of the academic libraries in the
state. Let's sing about it! Do you have patrons who use
MeLCat in interesting ways? What about your super-users?
Would they be good on camera? Contact Deb Renee Biggs at
517-373-4466 or
biggsd at michigan.gov<http://biggsd@michigan.gov> and let her
know. We need the very best stories to float to the top!



Another video will talk about the impact of the MeL
databases. We need to get in touch with patrons who have
used the MeL databases to further their education at the
high school or college level, to push into a new career
field, to pursue their hobbies, to research family history,
fix their cars, satisfy their curiosity, save money or bring
money or business to their communities, or assist their
employer.



The last video talk about the success of using MeL resources
at Cody High School, the Detroit Institute of Technology
College Prep High School. Gale's Cody Academy Program sends
volunteers to the Detroit school. In collaboration with the
Cody  principal and one of the English teachers, Gale staff
works with three senior English classes. A big side benefit
to our efforts early on was the introduction of Cody staff
to resources that were available to them free through MeL.
Because of budget cuts, Cody, like other Detroit schools had
recently lost their media specialists, and teachers and the
administration were unaware of these resources.



We're planning to shoot the videos in August and September
and we need your help in identifying patrons who have
benefitted from MeL. Do you have patrons with a great story
to tell about the impact MeL has had on their lives? Do you
have patrons that are articulate and would be proud to
represent their new-found knowledge on camera? We're looking
to you to share those stories with us as we seek out the
best MeL tales in the state and get them recorded for all to
see. Due to the practicalities of the shooting schedule,
locations need to be within a one and a half hour drive of
Lansing. Ideally, we would speak with more than one person
at each stop so put on your thinking caps and aggregate the
good news you have to share about MeL.
