We just started loans to schools this year and so far
so good. We gave the school librarians (NOT TEACHERS)
forms to send in by fax requesting information. We
(being the professional librarians) collect the
materials to send which can be books, videos, magazine
articles photocopied, and web site addresses and then
have a paraprofessional package the items as ILLs -
including the paper wrap around the book. We use a
different color wrap for school loans. The librarian
is responsible for getting the materials back to us -
she calls and outreach services takes the van to the
door for the returns as well as the delivery. We've
had 100% returned when we put it in the hands of the
school librarian!

Janice,
I'm sure I'm not the only one intrigued by the idea of a carpeted bathtub!
Is it what it sounds like?  How did you come by it?  There must be some
history to it...
Is it the old-fashioned kind with claw feet?
Inquiring minds thank you!

We run a program like this.  I travel to 25 day cares per month.  At each
center I do story time for as many classes as they will let me and I leave a
small deposit collection.  These are canvas bags with 15 books each.  We
also have themed storytelling kits the centers may borrow.  Each collection,
and each item within it, is cataloged and barcoded to circulate through our
automated system.  Each center has a library card I check materials out to.
This way no individual teacher is held responsible.  We need more of these
bags of books and I'm curently seeking grant opportunities for this purpose.
Call or email if you have any questions, but this is it in a nutshell.

Erin,
What is a butterfly chair? We are considering a YA area in our dept and I =
would really like to know. Thanks, Lisa

I don't have these chairs but many libraries do and have success.  Get
beanbags (yes there are lots of other problems) or BUTTERFLY chairs.
Butterlfy chairs are cheap and only the most agile can get in and out of
them - not to mention that they are cool looking.

I have restaurant booth seating and for the longest time many seniors sat
there because of the straight backs.  But then we got straight back chairs
for the whole library and that fixed that.  I have signs on the tables
saying that the area is reserved for teens and that if "you choose to
ignore this sign a staff member may ask you to move."  If it's before
school gets out I gently notify the person sitting there, don't ask them
to move at that time, but ask them to find a new place to sit in the
future. If it's after 3:00 I ask them to relocate playing up the "young
teens might be intimidated to hang out.." angle.  I've only had 2
"incidents" with individuals and I suspect that they were angry about more
in their life than just where to sit in the library :).

We are a large library and there is ample seating for adults in other
locations.

Erin

A good idea! It reminds me of a German party game I read about in one of
our books - the child needs to put on the gloves, pick up a knife and
fork, set a wrapped chocolate bar on a plate, and unwrap it with the
knife and fork and cut it! You can make a race or relay race out of this,
I think.  Not sure I could do it at all, but kids are more coordinated.)

I wish that I could report favorably on my two experiences with young adult
auctions. I solicited donations from celebrities and had a wonderful
response. I had about 200 young adults sign up and a grand total of 8
attended the auction. The ones who showed up at the auction made out like
bandits and were naturally happy. The second auction had the same results as
the first. The same young adults showed up for the second auction.

It seems to matter little what I do. I publicize src to the heavens and get
about 200 young adults. I give it a lick and a promise and still end up with
200. This past summer had the usual 200 but the number of books read jumped
significantly. The difference was that each
time they turned in books (once a week) they received a sandwich courtesy of
our local McDonalds. They didn't want stickers, bookmarks or pencils but
food seemed a big hit.

Hope you succeed better than I did.

Hi all,

A patron is interested in finding a book she remembers from first grade
(about 15 years ago).

"I don't remember a lot about the story except that it was
about a family with 11 children, and when the father called
them, he called them all at once, from the oldest to the
youngest, like so:

Will Jill Hester Chester Peter Polly Tim Tom Mary Larry and
little Clarinda."

Does this ring a bell with anyone? This list is amazing with the collective
brain.

You can reply directly to me at nbyers_clis@hotmail.com

Julie,
we have it in YA (which in our system is high school), but I think if it
were a book discussed, either as a class assignment or book group, 7th &
8th graders would benefit.  In any case, it is a book that would make a
good springboard for discussion.  It is extremely topical (unfortunately);
there have been cases recently of students preparing to attack schools;
including locally (San Francisco Bay Area) last week at a community
college.
It might be worth while to display it with books on coping with personal
problems, as well as on how to manage anger and other negative feelings.

At our public library the book was definitely appropriate for our Young
Adult section, which was where we put it. I haven't heard any responses from
kids, but I thought the book was written very well. I think a lot of
Strasser for addressing the issue.

I have a teen advisory council ranging in age from 12-18. Most of them have
read
this book, and it causes more discussion than any other book they have read.
Both the youngest and oldest kids have read it, and the younger ones (grades
7,
8) are able to appreciate it and understand it. One thing I did notice about
the
younger readers, however, is that they don't realize this is fiction! They
think
it is based on a real story. I have to make sure they understand this is
fictional account based on a number of national incidents. I think the
footnotes
trick them. Besides that, I think this is definitely appropriate for younger
kids and a real eye opener. Want to do a successful book discussion? Choose
this
book!

Please search your memories for the following book.

Patron says it is a novel about 20 years old.  A girl named Jessica enters
a closet to go back in time to her grandmother's era.  Possibly takes her
grandmother's place.

Please send your ideas to me directly.

Thanks very much
