Receiving institutions must be a government institution or have valid 501c3 standing. Please let me know if you are interested and any details you have re: amount needed. Thanks!

sad news
by Mary Ellen Mulcrone 11 Mar '16

11 Mar '16

Dear Library Colleagues, I'm sorry to be sharing the sad news that we have lost a dear friend, Leslee Niethammer. Leslee Niethammer passed away on March 11, 2016 after a battle with cancer that began last June. Leslee was the long-time Director of the Saline District Library, having served in that capacity since 1989. She saw the Library through its transition to a district library in 1991, opening a new facility in 1994, and then expanding that building in 2008. Leslee was a very active member of the Saline community and positioned the Library to be at its center. Over the years, Leslee represented the Library by serving in leadership roles for nearly every community organization and had a part in founding important groups such as the Saline Coalition for a Quality Community and Saline Leadership Institute. Leslee was passionate about nature and art, and she shared her passions with the community by installing gardens, trails, and works of art throughout the Library grounds, and by rotating art exhibits inside the building. Leslee and her legendary smile will be dearly missed by her family, friends, and Library colleagues. Visitation and services will be held at First United Methodist Church of Saline, 1200 North Ann Arbor Street in Saline. Visitation: Monday 4:00-8:00 p.m. and Tuesday 10:00-11:00 a.m. Memorial Service: Tuesday at 11:00 a.m. Further details: http://www.rbfhsaline.com/obituaries/Leslee-Niethammer/#!/Obituary Mary Ellen Mulcrone Assistant Director Saline District Library 555 N.

Please excuse any cross-posting. Hello all! We're considering adding a work from home/telecommute policy. We're looking to clarify which type of employees (programming, IT, managers, etc.); what percentage of hours (weekly/monthly/?); what type of tracking system; and what type of circumstances (ill family, poor weather, webinar on a day we're not open, etc.) Are there any libraries out there with one in place, that you'd be willing to share? Thank you! Cynthia Stanczak Library Director Albion District Library 501 S. Superior St. Albion, MI 49224 (517) 629-3993 Albion District Library: Transforming Minds, Changing Lives.
