Summer Library Program Survey
by Lancaster, Cathy (MDE) 03 Aug '21

03 Aug '21

Please --> forward to those in charge of summer library programming at your library. Thanks! REMINDER: Please complete this summer library program survey<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeBq6Yof5mW1gGzDeHroUQ7h09MRZ94kEW…> from the Collaborative Summer Library Program - even if you didn't use "Tails and Tales" this year! CSLP has created a survey so they can better assess the usefulness of the materials offered by the program on a national level to better serve you, the CSLP membership! (Did you know? All Michigan public libraries are members of CSLP, even if your library opts not to use the slogan/artwork/manual, because LM covers your membership fees on a statewide level using IMLS/LSTA funds.) The survey can be found here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeBq6Yof5mW1gGzDeHroUQ7h09MRZ94kEW… FAQs Who should complete this survey? The audience for the survey is public library staff who played an active role in administering or running 2021 summer library programming. One person per library could fill it out, or multiple library staff from the same library could complete the sections of the survey most relevant to their work; e.g. children, teen, or adult programs. * Please coordinate with your colleagues on who will fill it out, especially if you are in a multi-branch system. * This does NOT need to be filled out by Directors. (Adult/YA/Children program overseers can complete their own portions.) * EVEN IF YOU DID NOT USE "TAILS and TALES" AS YOUR THEME, we invite you to complete the survey! Is this survey required? No, it is not required, but we would appreciate your input. Every library that responds helps us get a more accurate picture of overall satisfaction with the program. I want to be prepared. What info will I need to provide? * General feedback on using (or not) the 2021 program theme and materials; * (Optional) 2023 "All Together Now," and 2024 Adventure theme feedback; * Feedback and info about how/whether you tracked participation, as well as stats for participation and programming for children (ages 0-11), teens (12-18) and adults. You may skip any questions for which you don't have the answers. I suggest you wait until your summer program has ended to complete the survey. When does the survey close? The survey is open from now until Friday, September 17, 2021. Let me know if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you in advance for sharing your input! This program is supported in part by the Institute of Museum and Library Services. Cathy Lancaster Youth Services Coordinator Library of Michigan 702 W.

Macomb or Oakland County Cash Register Sales/Service
by Jacalynn Harvey (Roseville Public Library) 03 Aug '21

03 Aug '21

Roseville Public Library has few cash transactions these days, however we still use a cash register since we sell items for both the library and the friends. Our ten-year-old cash register is still a very good machine, however we need service and the one-man business that sold and serviced the machine is no longer open. Can anyone recommend a cash register sales and repair service in Macomb or Oakland County?

What is your advertising budget for programs?
by Thomas Trahey 02 Aug '21

02 Aug '21

Generally, we don't spend money on advertising our programing, but we have a series coming up that I think is valuable and informative and I want to spread the word to people who don't usually follow what the library is doing. Have you had any success advertising? What platforms do you use? Social media? Radio? Newspapers? How much do you spend for a series you really like? -- Thomas Trahey Mason County District Library Head of Circulation 231-843-8465
