Re: [Michlib-l] Reference Practices
by King, Barb 05 Jun '19

05 Jun '19

The reference librarians at the St. Clair County Library in Port Huron have been asked to develop a new reference practice plan for our library system. How is reference service delivered in your library system? We are interested in such things as staffing, hours , and physical location of public service desks. At this time the reference librarians here are all located in the basement of the library and are on call. Do you have professional librarians doing reference? How many hours per week? Is there a separate reference desk or a combined public service station? How is reference service delivered at your branch libraries as opposed to service at the main library? Thank you so much for your time and consideration. Yours truly, Barbara King Reference Services Senior Librarian St. Clair County Library Port Huron MI 48060 (810) 987-7323 ext. 2520

Trying to Recall a Title

Hello Friends, I once used a book for story time that featured three animals going to Florida for the winter. They drive there, and look at funny billboards on the way. Pancakes are eaten quite often. I can't come up with the right words for the catalog. I thank you in advance if you can provide author/title. Regards, Jim Moir
