Update and meeting!















FLASH! Two new objects at the OPL library....on the left is the "reference" kiosk. This is an LM and TP to the reference desk on Info Island. Its part of the Alliance Library System project to provide reference services as close as possible to 24/7 for all libraries that want such service, since none of us is able to provide such service on our own. Its a collaborative project. We help out by my volunteering for a ref. shift every Monday morning. If you would like to volunteer for a ref shift, just let me know and I'll direct you to the right contact.

On the right is an info kiosk for the islands in the Aliance Virtual Library group, with information about AVL. There are LMs to each of the islands in the group.

PLEASE take time to get familiar with these resources, for you own benefit and to assist anyone who may ask about them. Both are provided to us free of charge, by the way.

Stacy/Anastazia and I will be helping with a book disucssion at 4 p.m. SLT (6 p.m. CST) Oct. 18 at Rachelville. The discussion is part of Skytales Book Discussions, created in collaboration with Rocky and Cindy, to discuss children's literature. I think this will be a really fun and interesting series, and its open to all. Thanks Ana for helping with this!

SO when do we meet? Let's shoot for sometime in the first half of October. Please post your optimum times/days as a comment to the blog. We'll compare each others availability and come up with something. Since some of you haven't been there, maybe we can have the meeting this time in the garden at my house? (music and dancing provided!)

Thanks all! See you later inworld or out!
