Additional resources and information can be found on the Read by Grade Three Law<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.michi…> site from the Michigan Department of Education.

Programming CSLP's 2020 "Imagine Your Story"<https://gcc01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.cslpr…> manuals are now available online for member libraries to access. Membership is supported by the Institute of Museum and Library Services and includes all the public libraries here in Michigan. All public library directors received an email this past Tuesday (via mi(a)countingopininons.com<mailto:mi@countingopininons.com>) on how to access the online manuals, so please see your director for details on accessing the manual. Early next week physical mailings with the directions on how to access your manual and the 2020 Catalog (available online) will also go out to all public libraries. Reminder: please designate 1 staff person to access the manual code for your building. Once you have the code, you can download the manual to your library network drive, save to a thumb drive, and/or print to share with staff. Manuals can be downloaded in sections or as a full manual all at once. Art work is available in "Zip Collections," that make it easier for libraries to download the art in batches. Please note the wonderful new layout! CSLP has put a lot of hard work and effort into creating an engaging and usable manual to support summer library programming. #ImagineYourStory #LibrariesImagine The Library Service to Underserved Children and Their Caregivers Committee would like to invite your library to apply for the Light the Way Grant!

Program Tables Responses
by Sharon Crotser-Toy 11 Oct '19

11 Oct '19

Greetings to you all! I'm passing along the responses to my request for program table recommendations, with many thanks to everyone for their suggestions. So sorry the hyperlinks didn't transfer. As always, I really appreciate your help and this forum! Hope you have a great Friday! RESPONSES: Bought through HomeDepot was the cheapest I’d found at the time. You can buy 6’ or 8’ tables that are light, and you can buy them cheaper as a pack of 4. https://www.homedepot.com/p/Lifetime-96-in-White-Plastic-Portable-Folding-S… _________________________________________________________ My favorite tables are always the Cosco plastic folding tables. https://www.coscoproducts.com/eng/Products/Indoor-Furniture/Folding-Tables/… _________________________________________________________ My library has two different kinds of programming tables right now. These: https://www.schooloutfitters.com/catalog/product_info/pfam_id/PFAM2786/prod… and similar to these: https://www.schooloutfitters.com/catalog/product_info/pfam_id/PFAM9457/prod… The first ones are HEAVY. Hard to move and fold down for storage. The second ones are fine. They're light and the height is adjustable. But when I have to pull out a table to use, I always grab the Cosco because I know I am not going to hurt myself setting up or taking down. __________________________________________________________ I’ve been a fan of Mainstays brand for awhile. They are durable, affordable, and have many sizes available. Here’s a link for some at Costco. We will probably get some next. https://www.walmart.com/ip/Cosco-6-Foot-Centerfold-Folding-Table-White/4636… __________________________________________________________ Our Friends of the Library group just purchased new tables from Sam’s Club. -- Sharon Crotser-Toy Director *Watervliet District Library* 333 N.

The March/April 2019 issue of Michigan History has been named one of two finalists for a "Full Issue" Eddie Award in the category of "City & Regional-Midwest." The issue quickly became a favorite among readers, featuring a story on Ford Motor Company's revitalization through the invention of the 1949 Ford; the history of Michigan's monarch, Jesse Strang; and several other stories, including the Jesuit mission at Mackinac, notorious women in Michigan's history, funeral homes owned by African Americans through the years, and the lesser-known history of Michigan businessman John E. Fetzer. The winners and honorable mentions of the coveted Folio: Eddie & Ozzie Awards will be celebrated at an awards gala on Wednesday, October 30, 2019, during The Folio: Show in New York City.

This year's issues have featured a range of historical subjects, including Michigan's connections to Apollo11, women's suffrage, World War II D-Day landing craft, African-American pioneers and the car that saved Ford Motor Company in 1949.
