Rolling Bookcase
by Shanni Kerr 07 Dec '16

07 Dec '16

I need to expand our shelving in the young adult area of our library and would like to remain as flexible as possible. If you have any unused rolling bookcases available I will happily purchase them for the right price! If you currently use a rolling bookcase, could you let me know where you purchased yours? My budget is next to nil...as always in the library world. :( -- Shanni Kerr-Teen Librarian and Circulation Manager Ionia Community Library 126 E Main Street Ionia MI 48846 616.527.3680 616.755.1898 cell

by David Ross 07 Dec '16

07 Dec '16

I have a question for you all. We are getting ready to move into the new building for our South Rockwood Branch. The Village President asked today if any Libraries use a Roomba Vacuum or similar vacuum and if they did how did it work out. Would it trip the motion sensors, does it keep the carpets clean etc.? Thank you in advance for any advice or information you can give.
