Does anyone have a photo waiver they can share? My library does not use one (we use verbal affirmations to post photos), but I want a written one. Thanks, all! Amber L Hughey, MLIS Director Bridgeport Public Library

Books & Brew for Libraries Read: 1 Book
by Pam Seabolt 31 Jul '18

31 Jul '18

MCLS Libraries Read: 1 Book Join us for books and brews at the Midwest Collaborative for Library Services’ in-person book discussions in August in both Michigan and Indiana. We will discuss this year’s winning title for Libraries Read: 1 Book, When They Call You a Terrorist by Patrisse Khan-Cullors and asha bandele. According to GoodReads<https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/34964998-when-they-call-you-a-terrorist>, this book is, "a poetic and powerful memoir about what it means to be a Black woman in America—and the co-founding of a movement that demands justice for all in the land of the free… When They Call You a Terrorist is Patrisse Khan-Cullors and asha bandele’s reflection on humanity. It is an empowering account of survival, strength and resilience and a call to action to change the culture that declares innocent Black life expendable." Those who submitted the title for consideration felt it would be a fantastic point to bring this conversation into the libraries, and to help us better understand the communities that we serve. Join us for a fun evening! Aug. 7, 6:30pm at Sun King Brewery in Fishers, IN. The discussion will be led by Kirsten Weaver from the Indianapolis Public Library (Register here<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdIVdCB-WWJASq6YOb9iZV6QIqH1lvvI5s…>) Aug. 16, 5:30pm at Lansing Brewing Company in Lansing, MI. The discussion will be led by Kevin King from the Kalamazoo Public Library (Register here<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSf1zpCzKqc_blNM_mq4N5of_yDPET0ijWB…>) Library staff are also invited to attend an in-person discussion with Lake County Public Library staff on Oct 17, 2pm at Lake County Public Library in Merrillville, IN (Register here<http://events.lcplin.org/event/957757>).

program idea
by Christine Nofsinger 30 Jul '18

To Whom It May Concern, My name is Mike Ureche and I am the recruiting specialist at Bethany Christian Services. I am a newer face at Bethany, but have been working with our refugee and immigrant neighbors for over 6 years in various capacities such as ESL director, citizenship class director, and now in the field of community engagement and recruitment through Bethany. There is nothing that excites me more than helping equip and encourage our communities to better love, serve, and welcome our newcomer neighbors. Since my time at Bethany I have had the opportunity to process new refugee foster families, train new volunteers and refugee mentors, and reunite a child to her mother. I would love to come share some of my experiences and encourage your community to take advantage of the unique opportunities to serve their refugee neighbors through Bethany's many programs. With more than 65+ million displaced individuals in today's refugee crisis, there is a place for every community and every family to serve. I am extremely thankful for service libraries provide in our communities. In fact, it was thanks to Chris Nofsinger at the Marcellus Township Library that I received my new position at Bethany! My wife and I attended a presentation about refugees at our local library in Marcellus where a Bethany speaker was present. After a great conversation with the speaker, I found myself in the employment process for a position at Bethany and now get the privilege to do much of the speaking! Feel free to reach out to me for any further questions or concerns. I look forward to hearing from you.
