Hello Folks,
In a very recent posting, someone had recommended a reliable button-making
machine for between $150-200?
I did not keep the posting at the time, but would appreciate that answer
now.
Could you please e-mail me directly with the company contact information?
Sorry to have taken up space for a repeat question....

Draft Interpretation of the Library Bill of Rights on Privacy
Privacy is essential to intellectual freedom, the freedom to hold, =
receive, and disseminate ideas. In its Library Bill of Rights, Code of =
Ethics, Libraries: An American Value, and other policies and guidelines, =
the American Library Association (ALA) has affirmed that library users =
have a right to privacy. Indeed, protecting user privacy and confidentiali=
ty has long been an integral part of the mission of libraries, library =
trustees, and librarians.
To assist librarians in preserving privacy and confidentiality for library =
users, particularly in this post-September 11 period, the ALA Intellectual =
Freedom Committee has drafted an Interpretation of the Library Bill of =
Rights on privacy. =20
To learn about and discuss this draft Interpretation, join the ALA =
Intellectual Freedom Committee (IFC) at its Issues Briefing in Room 279 of =
the New Orleans Convention Center on Saturday, January 19, 11:30 a.m. to =
12:30 p.m.
In accordance with the IFC's usual procedure, this draft has been =
distributed to the ALA Council, Executive Board, Divisions, Committees, =
and Round Tables for review and comment. This is the first of several =
opportunities to comment. You, too, are welcome to send comments to the =
Office for Intellectual Freedom (OIF), and you are urged to do so as soon =
as possible after Midwinter, and no later than March 15, 2002.
In addition to this draft, the IFC simultaneously is developing a set of =
guidelines and issues for local libraries to use when they are developing =
privacy policies. An initial draft of this document will be available at =
Midwinter as well.
We hope to see you at the 2002 Midwinter Meeting Issues Briefing Session!
P.S. The document is available as a PDF at

I thought of this -- perhaps a family service agency with their own licensed
counselors will use/rent our space in a new teen center..........Liability
would have to be covered under a family or social work agency.........Holly

Subject: RE: Counseling program affiliated with teen library centers
How is the library and/or counselor protected from malpractice/lawsuits?
What type of counselor/credentials would be required?
I would suggest being careful about this.

Hello all --
I'm doing a Spongebob (YAY!) program next week and I've got 3 ideas
- jellyfishing with helium balloons
- making crabby patties with cut felt and foam pieces
- decorating a yellow square sponge
I love Mr. Squarepants, but I just need another thunderbolt idea - I'm a
little bored with my ideas - any suggestions?
TIA!
Erin
