INALJ meetup in Royal Oak tonight
by Jennifer Dye 21 Nov '13

21 Nov '13

I don't remember whether this was previously announced on this list, but thought I should remind people (or let them know) that there is an INALJ meetup tonight in Royal Oak. INALJ is "I Need a Library Job"--though as always networking should start before you're looking for a job. All librarians and information professionals (including students) are invited to join other INALJ fans for drinks, nibbles and great conversation. When: Thursday, November 21, 6-8 pm Where: Goodnite Gracie in Royal Oak, https://www.facebook.com/GoodniteGracieRoyalOak?rf=109934012398731 The details: this is a networking event similar to a no host dinner or open house at a professional conference. You will meet other librarians and information professionals in the area for informal conversations (bring business cards!). There is no charge to attend; you just pay for your own food and drink. Students are more than welcome to join us. Co-hosted by Karly Szczepkowski, Eva Gogola and Barry Puckett RSVP: Karly Szczepkowski – karly(a)ix.netcom.com Jennifer Dye Librarian Hubbard Branch Detroit Public Library 12929 W. McNichols Detroit, MI 48235 jdye(a)detroitpubliclibrary.org 313-481-1751 (reference desk) 313-481-1750 (workroom)

pajamas in the library
by North Adams Library 21 Nov '13

21 Nov '13

Hello all, How do you address the issue of adults wearing their pjs to the library? Not for a special program, they just are out and about in their pjs. I searched online this weekend for policies dealing with this, but found nothing. If you have a policy that addresses this issue, I would appreciate hearing from you. Thank you!

Library DVD Rentals
by Marion Lusardi 19 Nov '13

For libraries that have rental DVDs, do any of you have a separate classic collection that is rental free? If so, what criteria did you use to determine what titles are considered classic? Thanks, Midge Lusardi

browsing history and the "library record"
by Kristy Zeluff 19 Nov '13

19 Nov '13

Is the browsing history of a patron on a public computer considered part of their "library record"? It seems to me, the way the law is worded, that it IS. And if a minor patron is observed (by a staff member) engaging in risky (and library rule-breaking) online behavior, can parents be contacted? This minor patron does NOT have a signed Release of Minor Child's Library Record on file. All of our computers are filtered, so we do not require a signed release form for minor patrons to use the computers. Thanks in advance for clarification.
