Hi,

Please turn in your timesheet today.

Thank you,

Missy

Compare your answer to these!

The mayor has asked us to display a sign-up sheet for kids willing to lead the pledge of allegiance at upcoming city council meetings. It’s been placed near the north checkout PC.

Beginning July 1, Missy will start as our new Technical Services Assistant Librarian. Congratulations Missy!

The outdoor movie will start on Friday, June 5th at dusk, i.e. roughly around 8:45pm to 9:00pm. The rain date for this event will be the following night, Saturday, June 6th–same time. 😉

Patio Book Club books have been moved from behind the Circulation Desk to the top of Recently Returned along with signage and takehome flyers in an effort to make this program more visable. 

Thanks!

Minutes from last Thursday’s staff meeting are now available via the link below…

Circulation has none, zip, zilch, zero plastic bags. 

Please bring some if you have extra at home.

Thank you!

Missy

The Personalized Reading List request form (mentioned at the April staff meeting) is now “live” on the PAC. 

Thank you for all of your hard work Thursday and for making our volunteers feel special and appreciated!  Cheryl

Hello!

Thank you,

Missy

Our staff meeting will be held this Thursday at 8am. In addition to our regular round of news, we will have our annual volunteer brunch.

No, Jo is NOT bringing hummus.

I wrote “hmmm”.  I am bringing more fresh fruit to compliment Kinney’s fruit.  And a fruit dip.

Hello all!

I am in need of some random items for teen programming this summer…

I am going to try to create a life-sized Jenga game. For this, I need many, many 12 pack pop boxes — preferably mostly unripped.

I also need large pieces of cardboard — at least 5 feet tall. I’m going to try to make giant bowling pins!

If you happen to have any of this stuff, please share the love and bring it to the library!!

Thanks very much!

Jessica

The Tech Services Assistant Librarian position has been posted on the bulletin board next to the mailboxes.

I am excited to announce that Molly Mauer has accepted the position of Assistant Director. Molly has been director of the Kling Public Library in Grundy Center since 2012 and has a background in English literature and Spanish Language. She will start July 20th. 

FYI – art and display items will be moving in and out of the library through June 1.

Saturday, May 23 Maurice Murenzi will pick up his art. It is gathered around my desk area.

Tuesday, May 26 or soon after, Mary Steinberg will be in to pickup her art. I will have it gathered and wrapped as she brought it into the library. She is older and uses a walker, so please offer assistance to her vehicle.

Next week Max Wiese and Richard Hoidahl will pick up their display items before May 29.

We’ll be upgrading to the latest version of Polaris on Thursday, September 24th.  I’ll share details about the changes we can expect to see when the date is closer and I’m more certain as to which version we’ll be installing.
