We also had the Organization for Bat Conservation up here in Presque Isle
County. They went into the schools and followed with a program here at the
Rogers City library. It was a great experience. Learned about the issues
with white nose fungus and the variety of species. Many of the students who
were initially afraid of bats were not after the program. Excellent
program. Highly recommend this one!

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

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.

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.
