[Michlib-l] LM's Library Science Collection - It's Storytime!

[Reish, Karren (MDE)]

One of the highlights of children's library services is Storytime. It's an engaging way to introduce books and early literacy skills to children and parents. What are the current trends? Do you need some new ideas for themes or books? LM is highlighting topical Library Science titles from our collection in occasional emails. Here are selected titles on Storytimes purchased recently. You can search MeLCat for LM titles and you can also check our New Library Science Collection titles at https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/libraries/libsci. Click on the ANSWER catalog link and use "Library Science Collection" as one of the search terms in the Advanced Search - Notes field and you will pull only the library science collection titles.

REMINDER: Titles are available through interlibrary loan only right now, as our MeLCat delivery is temporarily offline while we prepare to move to a new catalog. You can find the information on interlibrary loan borrowing from the Library of Michigan here - https://www.michigan.gov/libraryofmichigan/about/libuseguidelines/guideforlibraries/interlibrary-loan-guidelines. The page references state employees, but libraries may also borrow from the collection through interlibrary loan. Please feel free to contact me if you have any issues getting a title.
