Antique Law Freebies
by Ted Gregory 02 Nov '17

02 Nov '17

Hello, everyone. Recently one of the townships comprising our service area dropped off some books we have no use for. They mostly consist of some old, thick books labeled *Compiled Laws Michigan 1897*, and seem to include three copies of Volume I, two each of Volume II and II, and an index. There's also a Vol. i of *Michigan Compiled Laws 1872*, as well as a book titled *1899 - 1900 Laws of Extra Session*, and some volumes of *Public Acts of Michigan Session of 1885, Session of 1895,* and *Session of 1899*, with there being three copies of the last. Anyone who wants to take a look at them, please send us your RIDES code off-list. Thanks, -- Ted Gregory Mackinaw Area Public Library mackinaw1(a)gmail.com Find us online at http://www.mackinawareapl.michlibrary.org/ <http://mackinawareapubliclibrary.org/> and on Facebook! 528 W.

Hi all, A patron of ours recently lost EVERYTHING in a house fire, including a library card catalog drawer that she kept recipe cards in.

MeL Minute: Parent Resources—New in MeL Teachers
by Biggs, Deb Renee (MDE) 02 Nov '17

02 Nov '17

Hello All! The Library of Michigan is fortunate to be working with a K12 Education Specialist who then works directly with school librarians, teachers and administrators in PreK-12 public and private schools around the state. She is doing amazing work helping educators to realize how important MeL’s quality, vetted digital resources can be to preparing students for college and career. In support of parents who are their children’s first teachers and who maintain an active role in their children’s formal education, our K12 Specialist has added a Parent Resources<http://teachers.mel.org/parent-resources> section to the MeL Teachers<http://teachers.mel.org> portal. In this section, parents can find an explanation of what “subscription databases” actually are, and how to use them, a link to the MeL Parent Page with selected quality, free websites that provide support, and direct links and information on how MeL’s College Bound center as well as MeL Teens and MeL Kids portals can be successfully used by parents with their children. Parents, especially Homeschool parents would want to also check out the Training Toolkit<http://teachers.mel.org/training-toolkit> in MeL Teachers. On it they can learn more about MeL resources, access MeL training and get an overview of training materials. There are links to workbooks, infosheeets, slide decks and resource specific videos. Brought to you by Deb Renee Biggs and Sonya Schryer Norris, Library Consultants at the Library of Michigan MeL databases are available to Michigan residents or Michigan library access only. MeL Minutes are brought to you by the Library of Michigan. Want more information on MeL? Stay tuned for the next MeL Minute available on many Michigan library listservs, email us at contact(a)mel.org<mailto:contact@mel.org>, visit http://mel.org<http://mel.org/>, or sign up for the MeL Minute and other Library of Michigan e-mail lists via GovDelivery<https://public.govdelivery.com/accounts/MILOM/subscriber/new>.
