21 Jan '21

[A picture containing text, clipart, sign Description automatically generated]New Career Tools in LearningExpress Library for 2021! In need of a new job? New career? The LearningExpress Library<http://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customerspecific/mel/auth.php?database=lex> has plenty of options to assist in the changes you are seeking for the new year! Whether your interests are geared toward the military, a career in technology, or working on environmental issues, there are new resources in LearningExpress that can help you get started. Green Economy, Hot Technologies & STEM Occupations Although Job & Career Accelerator<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customerspecific/mel/auth.php?database=P…> is not a new resource to LearningExpress Library, new search options have been added, and the occupation card information has been updated substantially. Users can now search through a curated list of hot technology, green economy, and STEM occupations. Each occupation card lists the knowledge, skills, and abilities to perform the job as well as the required education, wage trends by individual state, current open positions in the field, and a video clip describing and showing a person working in that position. The Hot Technologies category allows users to explore the most in-demand technologies and software skills frequently included in employer job postings. Software Developers/ Applications<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…>, Computer Systems Engineers/Architects<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…>, and Market Research Analysts/Marketing Specialists<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…> are often listed among the results. (Once video card is opened, click anywhere on screen to start playing). In the Green Economy Occupations selection there is a New & Emerging category. Listed are those careers that are in-demand due to environmental changes, ecological scarcity, and sustainability. Occupation cards in this area include Biofuels Processing Technicians<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…>, Climate Change Analysts<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…>, Energy Brokers<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…>, and Environmental Economists<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…>. STEM Occupations offers 5 different categories for browsing: Managerial, Postsecondary Teaching; Research, Development, Design, and Practitioners; Sales; and Technologists and Technicians. Because of the variety of career paths in STEM occupations, jobs range from Agricultural Engineers<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…> to Video Game Designers<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…>. [Screenshot of new career categories available in LearningExpress Library.

Upon exiting the military, the Job & Career Accelerator<https://widgets.ebscohost.com/prod/customerspecific/mel/auth.php?database=P…> invites patrons to explore the Military to Civilian Occupations. This is a unique search tool, as it allows veterans to explore civilian occupations that are similar to the military jobs they once held. For example, a AN/USM-449A (V) Test Set Operator Intermediate Maintenance position in the Navy might pursue a civilian occupation for Electrical and Electronics Repairer of Commercial and Industrial Equipment<https://www.careeronestop.org/videos/careeronestop-videos-content.aspx?vide…>.

by Reish, Karren (MDE) 21 Jan '21

21 Jan '21

For those of you who work with your local school libraries and librarians, we have a video tour of the 2020/2021 21st Century School Library (SL 21). We were pleased to recognize Everett High School Library Media Center in the Lansing Public Schools as the 2020/2021 Model 21st Century School Library last summer. Joy Currie is the School Librarian for Everett High School with Principal Jaime Gundrum. The library won the Model SL 21 honor for Ms. Currie's focus on bringing life experiences to Everett High School students as well as academic support. Joy has reached out to a variety of community groups to help students achieve in their academic and personal lives, creating an outstanding program in the process. In a typical year, we would have visited Everett High School and Joy would have been able to host visitors to her library. This of course is an unusual year. So Joy has done a great video tour of her library and her programs for everyone. Please see the video link below to learn about her work and get some great ideas. Everett High School Media Center Video Tour with Joy Currie<https://youtu.be/OpoKHu2bHyU> FYI that the SL 21 program is a school library quality benchmarking program that the Library of Michigan offers to school libraries.

carpeting squares & electric projects
by Denise Bearre 21 Jan '21

21 Jan '21

Have any libraries used carpet squares over electric conduit products? I have seen both Connectrac and Thread (by Steelcase) and I like the idea of putting in electric without jack hammering out our cement floor. What are the pros and cons of these products? How did you contract it out? (with a designer, or separately with an electrical contractor and a carpeting contractor?) If you have any photos of your finished project they would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Denise M Bearre, Library Director Alcona County Library 312 W Main St Harrisville, MI 48740 989-724-6796 ex 221

Hi all - Please contact RIDES via the Assistance Form at https://www.mcls.org/rideshelp in advance if you plan to send more than a few donated teen items to the Grace A. Dow Memorial Library via RIDES delivery. If a library is sending a large amount of donated items then we may need to facilitate special arrangements with the courier. Thank you, Tara Kanon MeLCat Support Specialist & Statewide Delivery Coordinator Midwest Collaborative for Library Services (MCLS) 1407 Rensen St. Suite 1, Lansing, MI 48910 800-530-9019 ext 144 kanont(a)mcls.org<mailto:kanont@mcls.org> [acebook]<https://www.facebook.com/mcls.org> [witter] <https://twitter.com/mclsorg> [cid:image003.png@01D6EFE7.CBF58F40] <http://www.mcls.org/> ________________________________ From: Andrus, Miriam via Michlib-l <michlib-l(a)mcls.org<mailto:michlib-l@mcls.org>> Date: Wed, Jan 20, 2021, 11:58 AM Subject: [Michlib-l] ***A Library in Need!!!!! To: michlib-l(a)mcls.org<mailto:michlib-l@mcls.org> <michlib-l(a)mcls.org<mailto:michlib-l@mcls.org>> Hello Library Friends - In May of 2020, the Midland, MI community sustained substantial flood damage after two dams failed. Bridges were washed away, homes were ruined, but the Midland community came together to help one another (amid a pandemic no less!) The Grace A. Dow Memorial Library was no exception. We sustained substantial flooding to our lower level when water poured into the basement through our windows. We are now working our way through a 2 million dollar renovation project to restore our library and mechanical systems. However, this e-mail is not about my Library. This e-mail is about Windover High School's Library. Windover is a specialized high school that accommodates Teens who often experience homelessness, abuse, and neglect. The School has a food pantry, shower for students, and a basic needs pantry (clothes, chap stick, deodorant, etc.). They even have a laundry so students can wash their clothes at school if needed. In May, 90% of their library was washed away. Water was almost 4 feet high in their building and their books were housed on short picture book shelves. It wasn't until right before Christmas that they reached out to me to see if our library could help them. They have received many book donations but many are too old, (think 1970's encyclopedias), or not geared toward teens. They need materials and don't have money to purchase much as they too are dealing with a large and expensive renovation project. If anyone reading this e-mail has extra Teen books we would greatly appreciate them in Midland! I know librarians are big readers and some of you may have books sitting around your homes you are willing to donate. Maybe some of your libraries are weeding your Teen collection and somewhere to send your books. We would love any teen materials we can get. If you have donations you can mail them to 1710 West St. Andrews Midland, MI 48640, send them through rides ZV225, or if you are in our area you can drop them off in our exterior book drop. Even if you only have one book, it will help. If you want to see how the flood affected our Library you can watch our video here https://fb.watch/386fSYHBvq/ Thank you for any/all of your help!! -Miriam [cid:image011.jpg@01D6EF23.14D5D460] Miriam Andrus Director, Grace A.
