Invitation to participate in a general libraries social media video
by Katie Rothley 24 Mar '25

24 Mar '25

Hi all, Would anyone be interested in doing a collaborative video (or series) just to promote libraries in general? This is completely voluntary. We would feature parts of the library by different libraries and then edit the videos together for anyone and everyone to share on their channels. It would be to just promote how incredible our collections, services, and events are, and that would be the message. Please let me know if this is something you would be interested in, <https://forms.gle/cz1C2gUS52ZNEpqR8> I'm happy to coordinate it. (This is separate from the Summer Reading Collab Video). If you have any ideas on how to structure this, please let me know. I'm open to help and anything, really. If you are in a consortium that is not TLN, please pass along this invitation in your listserv. Thanks! *For more info, keep reading.* *For the video part, you'd want to closely follow these steps:* - We would plan a script(s) & storyboard(s) (impacts, benefits, awesomeness, services) - Record in Portrait - Do not add captions - we'd do this during editing the videos together so it's consistent - Share your black & white logo with white background - jpg or png - Use a wearable/mobile mic for better sound, or film in less busy places or during times when it's quiet - Ensure there is good lighting - Make sure you are recording in mirror mode/filter so anything you are sharing is not backward in the recording - Save your recording as a .mp4 or .mov format - those are easier to work with -- Katie Rothley, MLIS Marketing & Public Relations Librarian Northville District Library 212 West Cady Street Northville, MI 48167 (248) 349-3020 <callto:(248)+349-3020> ext. 221 https://northvillelibrary.org

E-Rate Case Oral Arguments before the US Supreme Court on Wednesday March 26
by Membiela, Clare (MDE) 24 Mar '25

24 Mar '25

Hello: This is an FYI that on Wednesday March 26, The U.S. Supreme Court will hear oral arguments in the case Federal Communications Commission v. Consumer's Research. This is the case that could impact the E-Rate program for schools and public libraries, as well as other programs funded by the Universal Service Fund. The argument brought by Consumer's Research, a non-profit organization, is that the FCC, which manages and oversees the Universal Service Fund, delegated certain responsibilities to the USF in violation of the nondelegation doctrine (the nondelegation doctrine is a constitutional principle which basically says that one branch or agency of government may not delegate statutory or constitutionally required responsibilities to another branch or agency). The current case is an appeal of a 5th circuit case (the nondelegation doctrine argument is bolstered by the overturning of the Chevron Doctrine which required courts to defer to agency decision making regarding interpretations of their statutory duties and requirements). Details on the issues in this case can be found Federal Communications Commission v. Consumers' Research - SCOTUSblog<https://www.scotusblog.com/case-files/cases/federal-communications-commissi…> A useful summary can also be found https://www.naco.org/news/naco-legal-advocacy-federal-communications-commis… The Supreme Court live streams oral arguments on its website: https://www.supremecourt.gov/oral_arguments/live.aspx The session begins at 10:00am EST.

Invitation to a Hybrid History Talk by Katherine R. Willson on "The Link Between Anti-Immigration Sentiment, Prohibition, The Mafia, and the U.S. Border Patrol" on Wednesday, March 26, 2025 at 6:30pm hosted by the Pinckney Library
by Hope Siasoco 22 Mar '25

22 Mar '25

Dear Library Colleagues, Forgive the cross-posting. We invite you to an upcoming hybrid history presentation by renowned genealogist Katherine R. Willson, on the topic of: *The Link Between Anti-Immigration Sentiment, Prohibition, The Mafia, and the U.S. Border Patrol*. *When:* Wednesday, March 26, at 6:30pm - 7:30pm Eastern Time (US and Canada) *Where:* In Person at the Pinckney Library, 125 Putnam St., Pinckney, MI 48169 or via Zoom Online *Description:* Early 20th century America was a time of significant social and political change, with anti-immigration sentiment heavily influencing legislative actions. Anti-German sentiment from World War I played a significant role in the passage of Prohibition, leading to a rise in illegal smuggling of alcohol into the U.S. by large criminal syndicates. U.S. border agencies were then required to shift their focus from revenue collection to maintaining control at the borders. This 1-hour presentation (with accompanying handout) explores the links between anti-immigrant sentiment, prohibition, the mafia, and U.S. Border Patrol. A Q&A session will follow the presentation. The presentation is free, but registration is required to attend the program. Please indicate on the registration form if you plan to attend In Person or Online via Zoom, along with how many people will be in your group. (One person can register for their group members planning to attend.) *Registration Link: * https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/zrkgrI3jSfm0ISyJQ21ywA This is a Live, in person and virtual presentation and will not be recorded.
