Musical program recommendation
by Alison Purgiel 02 Dec '15

02 Dec '15

The Norton Shores Branch Library had an amazing musical event this fall with Grammy-award winning artist Peter Madcat Ruth. Madcat sings and plays harmonica, guitar, high-hat, ukulele, jaw harp, banjo, kalimba, penny-whistle and pretty near anything else he can get his hands on, and received the first standing ovation so far in the concert series I've been doing in my two years at this library! Our event was adult oriented and the musical content was suited to that with blues, American roots music and jazz, but I could definitely see him putting on a kid-friendly family event as well. Madcat hails from Ann Arbor and his website is available at http://www.madcatmusic.net/index.html The Norton Shores Branch Library will definitely have him back again sometime. Alison D.

TFOP submission error
by Sheila Bissonnette 02 Dec '15

02 Dec '15

Good morning, Is anyone else having a problem submitting your TFOP order to the IRS ? I have submitted ours several times and I continue to get a “form error detected” email in reply. I have double checked our forms several times. I’m clueless as to why it will not be accepted. The text of the email is “We are unable to accept and process your form due to the following reason: Incorrect form. No program specified.” We have selected the option that we prefer. The only box that isn’t checked is the “Remove us from this program”. Has anyone else received this error? Thanks so much Sheila — Sheila M. Bissonnette, MLIS Library Director Cell phone: (989) 878-0450 Harrison District Library 105 E. Main Street P.O.

MeL/MeLCat migration begins - MeL Databases information
by Megan Dudek 02 Dec '15

02 Dec '15

Good morning - The MeL/MeLCat server migration has begun! The migration does affect the MeL Databases. 1. Users directly searching the MeL Databases at http://mel.org/Databases will be verified that they are in Michigan based on the IP address of their workstation. If the IP isn't recognized as being in Michigan, patrons will NOT be able to use the optional remote login screen via driver’s license or an account at a MeLCat library. 2. Libraries with direct URLs to the MeL Databases should be able to access the databases if their library IP is registered with the database vendor. If you need to register your library IP address, go to http://mcls.org/ipupdates 3.The MeL Discovery service (at http://search.mel.org and on http://mel.org) and the "Search" buttons on the MeL Gateways have been temporarily removed. We will let you know when everything is back up. If you have any questions, please contact meldatabaseshelp(a)mcls.org Thanks, MeL Databases Staff Megan Dudek MeL Catalog Training & Support Librarian Midwest Collaborative for Library Services (MCLS) 1407 Rensen St., Suite 1, Lansing, MI 48910-3657 800.530.9019 ext 153 www.mcls.org
