Weiss Financial Ratings Database
by Kari Besancon 14 May '24

14 May '24

Good Afternoon Everyone, Does anyone have a subscription to the Weiss Financial Ratings database? I just had a demo with a representative and really liked it. She claimed that there was a huge interest with Michigan libraries and I would like to make sure she is being truthful about this fact, plus she never did give us a quote... but I really did like this database, and want to know your thoughts. Any input would be very helpful. Thank you! -- Kari Besancon (Bə-sank’-in), MLIS District Director Iosco-Arenac District Library zv323 989-362-2651 k.besancon(a)vlc.lib.mi.us

Has anyone had their library board reimburse for school tuition? Even if it was a partial reimbursement? If so would you mind sharing how you went about this? My board would like me to get some information to see if they can even legally add this as a line item. Thanks! Erin Zabonick Interim Director Three Rivers Public Library - READ. LEARN.
