Non-Cash Payments
by Pietro O'Rourke 01 Oct '24

01 Oct '24

Hello, I've been searching through the archive to try and find any previous threads that cover this subject, and located a few that touch on it, but I'm hoping folks might have some guidance for my library regarding non-cash payments. Initially, I was hoping to set up a Venmo, PayPal, or Cashapp account for the library, but it's been difficult to locate any helpful information regarding the process, and I've had no success talking to a customer service rep to ascertain which sort of account we would be eligible for. I did see a previous thread regarding credit card payments where a few libraries endorsed Square. If you have any experience with this, or using online pay forums such as Venmo at your library, what has your experience been like? A previous thread mentioned a 3.6% fee for credit card transactions using Square (their site currently has a 2.6% rate plus a .10 cent fee). I'm curious if anyone has any feedback on this, or might be aware of any advantageous situations that institutions such as ours might be able to employ. Thank you!

TLN/Brodart BIBZ Statewide Collection Development Lists Project Now Live!
by Jim Flury 01 Oct '24

01 Oct '24

Library cooperative directors, please feel free to share this email with your member libraries. Thank you. All, In collaboration with Brodart, TLN is pleased to announce today's, October 1, 2024 launch of the brand new, statewide, monthly collection development lists BIBZ project. The inaugural three lists, encompassing one of each of Adult Nonfiction, Juvenile/Tween Fiction and Nonfiction, Teen Fiction and Nonfiction, for October, 2024 are now available on the TLN website at this link: [ https://tln.org/page/bibz/ | https://tln.org/page/bibz/ ] Also, at the bottom of this email are individual links to each of the three lists, as well as to the Brodart produced "MI Basics of BIBZ" YouTube video. In order to maximize your library's experience with the new monthly collection development lists, we suggest you follow both of these steps: 1. Complete and submit to our MI Brodart consultant Kim Langenderfer the BIBZ profile form that each interested library received via an individual email from Kim. If you did not receive the BIBZ profile form, please let either Kim or myself know. Kim is cc'd on this email. 2. View the Brodart produced YouTube video at this link [ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3zmBD1lztM | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3zmBD1lztM ] Brodart didn't give this video a name, but I think they would be okay with our calling it "MI Basics of BIBZ." Later today, each library that signed up for the statewide collection development lists project will receive a bcc email from my TLN colleague Corliss Jones, to notify them of the availability of the new lists. Corliss is cc'd on this email. Going forward, each library that has signed up will receive the above referenced bcc email from Corliss, every month. Timing wise, the new lists will be released during the week of the month that follows the first Friday of that month. Fun fact: I scribbled some numbers together late last week in an effort to come up with the number of these lists TLN/WOLF has produced since I was hired. The total was a bit over 1,300, going back to a time when a person named Ronald Reagan was President of the United States. And that only covers my timeline. The production of these collection development lists dates back to at least the early 1960's, if not earlier, when library personnel from Seattle were sufficiently impressed by what the then Wayne County Library was doing to pay a visit to the Wayne Service Center to marvel at such innovations such as centralized collection development lists, centralized delivery service, centralized cataloging and book processing, etc. As of this morning close to 90 libraries statewide have signed up for the new collection development lists project. And it's not too late for your library to do so! To sign up you can use the Contact Us form at the [ https://tln.org/page/bibz/ | https://tln.org/page/bibz/ ] link, or email Kim or myself. If you have comments concerning the content of the collection development lists (they are great, they are less great, they need more this, they need less that, etc.) I welcome those as well. Here are direct links to each of the three lists. These links will stay the same from month to month, with the new lists linked to them during the week that follows the first Friday of each month.

Please let me know if you have any comments or questions concerning this. Thanks.

book processing technology and trends
by Mary Harrison 30 Sep '24

30 Sep '24

Hello there MichLibL, We had a wonderful long-time volunteer who covered and processed all our books. Now that she has let us know she's finally ready to 'retire', we are exploring innovating ideas and technology for processing books and materials. For example, what does your library do to process a book (stamps, labeling, covers, etc.) Has your library reduced processing and labeling (I'm want to be minimalist and still protect the materials). Do you use a machine for putting on covers or do it yourselves? Thanks for your collective wisdom, Mary Mary Jean Harrison Director Coloma Public Library 151 W. Center Street PO Box 430 Coloma Michigan 49038 269-468-3431 <http://www.colomapubliclibrary.net/> www.colomapubliclibrary.net The most important asset of any library goes home at night - the library staff.
