Hello Michigan library folks, I am conducting a research project concerning library involvement in college readiness for teens. I am hoping to find out more about the kinds of things Michigan libraries are engaged in in this area. I am interested in hearing about any or all of the following: -- Library programming offered for teens that has to do with exploring college and career options -- Programs, websites, etc. sponsored by libraries, that are designed to assist with academic skills preparation for college -- Partnerships with schools or other organizations for the purpose of improving college readiness or preparation, or transition from high school to college -- Any other library outreach in the community that has goals related to college or career readiness Please respond directly to me. I would be happy to summarize for the list if other people are interested. Thanks! Michele Michele D.

Four New Michigan Code Books: Bulk Purchase Opportunity Available Through TLN
by Jim Flury 13 Apr '17

13 Apr '17

All, We are offering four new Michigan code books as a bulk purchase opportunity through The Library Network. We place the orders, ship to you via RIDES or TLN delivery, pay the invoice, and invoice your library. The invoice for your library is included with your shipment. We assess a $1.00 per book charge in order to partially offset the cost of this project. The prices noted are list; there may be a small discount depending upon how many copies we order of a given title. That said, the real savings here comes with the efficiency of having a single entity, in this case TLN, place a single purchase order for these books, as opposed to dozens of individual libraries having to do so. Here are the four titles that are being offered for bulk purchase: 1. 2015 Michigan Plumbing Code: $76.00. Goes effective April 20, 2017. 2. 2015 Michigan Building Code: $128.00. Goes effective April 20, 2017. 3. 2015 Michigan Mechanical Code: $76.00. Goes effective April 12, 2017. 4. 2015 Michigan Rehabilitation Code for Existing Buildings: $81.00. Went effective December 13, 2016 (oops, this one slipped by me. I try to catch all of them but not so much with this one it would seem). Please email your order for your code book(s) to me by no later than Friday, January 27, 2017. Library cooperative directors, please share this email with your member libraries. Thanks. Jim Jim Flury Technical Services Manager The Library Network 41365 Vincenti Court Novi, MI 48375 248-536-3100 x133 Fax 248-536-3098 jflury(a)tln.lib.mi.us
