YOu could hide Peter's little jacket some hwere in the library to be found.
YOu could have a station where
you have the flower pots upside down and you have to guess which one
Peter
is under.
You could do the tried and true pin the tale on the rabbit game.

Stephanie Stokes quotes Shireen Dodson's work as the "book that
started it
all." I beg to differ since there were mother/daughter books groups
going
long before Ms. Dodson started her group. She was just savvy enough to put
together a book and a very good one at that! I am, of course, green about
that, since I had a wonderful group for about 3 years at a bookstore I was
working at in CT. (1993-1996) As the first group grew up, I started a
second group for the lower end of the age range and made the first one's
range higher. I knew then that the idea was not a new one because I heard
of others in bookstores and in libraries. Dodson's book is one of those
"books I should have written!" Oh well! My group was written up in
the
Connecticut Post and in the Boston Globe!
Here in Connecticut, we have two Mother/Daughter book discussion series
that are sponsored by the Connecticut Humanities Council/Time For Ideas in
Libraries. These 4 week series bring a discussion leader and multiple co
pies of the selected books into libraries all across the state. They have
been enormously popular especially for smaller libraries that may not have
the personnel to put together their own series.

This segment is from the
Thursday, April 24,1997 All Things Considered
BOOK CLUB Linda visits a mother-daughter book club in Washington, DC. The
person's who had the idea for this club is Shireen Dodson, and she has now
written a book about it. It is called "The Mother-daughter Book Club :
How
Ten Busy Mothers and Daughters Came Together to Talk, Laugh and Learn
Through Their Love of Reading." One of the main goals of the club was
to
help these women communicate better with their pre-teen daughters. It seems
to have worked. (STATIONS: "The Mother-Daughter Book Club" is

Thank you to everyone who responded to my question
about cleaning procedures for public use headphones. I
received a number of responses. Several libraries are
spraying the headphones with Lysol once a day. Several
others are offering antibacterial hand wipes or
alcohol pads at the computer terminals or at the circ
desk. Mary Thornton offered:
If there is a chance that the headphones are infected,
they are put into a garbage bag with a no-pest strip.
This is very strong is thought to kill almost anything
if left for a few days.
After my closing, you will find a longer message
Heather Norquist forwarded that I think all of you who
are dealing with this same issue may find interesting.
Thanks again!

Heather's Message:
This is what the Harvard School of Public Health
Website says about headphones and headlice
http://www.hsph.harvard.edu/headlice.html
Washing and drying (with heat) the pillowcases,
sheets, nightclothes, towels and stuffed animals may
possibly eliminate lice and eggs that might otherwise
reinfest a family member. Combs, brushes, hats and
hair
accessories in contact with an infested person should
be washed in hot
water each day to dislodge any lice and nits. Shared
helmets and headphones in schools or recreational
settings may rarely and transiently harbor an
occasional louse or nit; the effort necessary to
effectively inspect and clean these devices, however,
is not likely warranted. Shared lockers or coat hooks
probably pose even less risk as sources of
contamination. Any lice or nits that might detach in a
swimming pool would likely be removed by the pool
filter or should otherwise perish before they have a
chance to contact a person. Closing a swimming pool
because of lice is a hysterical overreaction.
Insecticidal treatments targeted at lice within the
school or home, in vehicles, or to carpets and
furniture are generally unwarranted, and unnecessarily
expose occupants to insecticidal residues.

I am the Head of The Children's Library here in Vancouver, B.C.,
Canada.
We are a large division within a new Central Library and part of the
Vancouver Public Library. We have 20 branches and circulate, as a system,
over 2.5 million children's and young adult items a year. We did an
in-house Student Use Survey last year for high school and post-secondary
students and this year we are planning to do one for our elementary school
users. We would like to know about how they are using our
reference services, specifically. It's not a survey of reading habits
or
a measurement of satisfaction with our programs. We know this will have to
be pretty simple and that adults will have to assist many of the kids with
it.
We have done a literature search and are using such valuable
resources
as 'Evaluation Strategies and Techniques for Public Library Children's
Services: a Sourcebook'(by Robbins, Willet, et al, University of
Wisconsin, 1990) but can't locate many examples of actual surveys on this
topic for this age group.
I would appreciate any feedback you could give me on similar surveys
you
may have undertaken. If you have a survey you would be willing to fax me
or any printed survey findings you could mail, we would certainly
reimburse your costs.

of analyzing the FCC Order and discussing the Order with the FCC and =
the=20
Schools and Libraries Division of USAC. As soon as we have a clear=20
understanding of how the new rules will affect E-Rate applicants, we=20
will publish our analysis.=20
We understand that timely information on CIPA is important to the=20
library community and for this reason we will issue our analysis of the=20
FCC ruling as soon as we are able. But because the FCC Ruling is very=20
complex, and may even be subject to change in response to requests for=20
clarification, our analysis is not yet available. However, a brief=20
summary of the new regulations was posted on the CIPA Web site last =
week=20
and is available at: http://www.ala.org/cipa/regulations.=20
The ALA Washington Office will hold a CIPA implementation session as=20
part of our Saturday morning program at Annual Conference in June. In=20
the meantime, there is at present no need to pull out of the E-Rate
program.
Thank you for your patience - stay tuned to ALAWON for further=20
developments.

A patron is looking for a book she read, probably in
the sixties, as a third grader. A secret or walled
garden is the main feature, with things that become
real in the garden if a shadow is cast in the garden.
She thinks there is a magic fountain, and a shadow
child or ghost child who may be a girl, but she thinks
the main character is a boy. The book is not Burnett's
Secret Garden. Any ideas will be gratefully pursued!!
Thanks!
