Things You've Done Survey
by Lisa Rabey 05 Jan '25

05 Jan '25

Good morning everyone! I hope you're having a fine Sunday! I'm giving a presentation for Nerd Nite TC ( https://traversecity.nerdnite.com/) at the end of the month on "Not Your Mother's Librarian." It's a short presentation where I give quick run through (I only have 15 minutes) on the history of librarianship as well as what libraries do today which we all know is a lot! I'm sourcing from the librarian / library worker community on the following questions to add to my presentation. The responses are anonymous. Answer as many as you like. - What position or job have you held that doesn't scream librarianship? - Example: I was a liquor store manager and worked at a meat packing plant before I got my MLIS. One friend worked at a funeral. Another friend runs a soup kitchen. - Do you have degrees or certifications that doesn't scream librarianship? - Example: One friend has a bachelor's in religious studies and another friend has a master's in archaeology. - Do you have any interests or hobbies that don't scream librarianship? - Several friends are gardeners and another one works on cars. The purpose of these questions is to break the stereotype that librarians and library workers hang out all day reading. Any response would be great! If there is any interest in the presentation, I'll send out a link at the end of the month. P.S. I work at several library systems here in N. Michigan and I am presenting as myself and not as a rep for those libraries in case any of my bosses are reading this. :) Best, Lisa Lisa Rabey | @heroineinabook https://linktr.ee/heroineinabook

Labor Law Posters 2025 - ordering is open!
by Kate Pohjola Andrade 03 Jan '25

03 Jan '25

Hello Friends, It's the most wonderful time of the year, as I know you've all been patiently awaiting this message:* Labor Law Posters are coming soon*! Current posters are still compliant, so new sets are not necessary at this time. However, as we all know, there are big updates scheduled for late February 2025. Woodlands is taking orders now <https://forms.gle/PnZXZekNbqP9rS2N8> so that we'll hit the ground running when the new posters are released. Updating your posters ensures that your library stays compliant with the required State and Federal Labor Law postings for the coming year. You'll be notified via email if any updates occur, with a .pdf attachment to print and post to remain compliant immediately. That will be followed by a new poster or a matching sticker, whichever is most practical at that time. Not sure if your library needs this? It does. Every workplace does. If you belong to a municipality and/or contract for accounting or payroll services, they may provide these for you. If not, consider reserving your poster set(s) at the following link <https://forms.gle/PnZXZekNbqP9rS2N8> - $30 per set - by *January 31, 2025*. Feel free to drop me a line if you have questions. Happy New Year, kate -- Kate Pohjola Andrade <https://namedrop.io/katepohjolaandrade> (she/her) Director | Woodlands Library Cooperative <http://woodlands.lib.mi.us> 517-629-9460 or 586-801-0725 kate(a)woodlands.lib.mi.us <https://woodlands.zoom.us/zbook/kpa/book-a-chat> <https://www.facebook.com/WoodlandsLibraryCooperative/>

6th U.P. Notable Books List honors the year's best U.P. books
by Victor R. Volkman 02 Jan '25

02 Jan '25

We have just received a new shipment of the brass-foil colored U.P. Notable Books award stickers for those of you who have previously purchased books on this year's (or any previous year's) list. Each sticker is 2 inches in diameter and is small enough to be applied to the jacket covers. Scroll down a bit to see the actual design. I can send out up to 20 stickers to any librarian who is interested in receiving them. I don't have "RIDES" access so you'll have to reply with your complete shipping address and to whom the stickers should be sent. The complete lists of all winners (including links to book reviews) from all 6 years starting in 2020 are here https://www.upnotable.com/past-winners/ Regards, Victor R. Volkman, President U.P. Publishers & Authors Association (UPPAA.org) MARQUETTE, MI (January 2nd, 2025)— the *Upper Peninsula Publishers & Authors Association* (UPPAA) announces the 6th Annual U.P. Notable Books List this week. UPPAA Notable Books chairman *Mikel Classen* (Sault Ste. Marie) initiated the effort in 2019 as a response to the lack of representation of U.P. writers in other Michigan state literary circles. Classen said, “Traditionally, recognition of Michigan books has been dominated by the university presses downstate and we would like to take this opportunity to highlight literature that focuses closer to home for us.” *Evelyn Gathu*, Director of the Crystal Falls District Community Library, will continue the library's alliance with UPPAA to co-sponsor the U.P. Notable Book Club <https://UPPAA.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b1016c5c910959a236f2ff48f&i…>. The club is available to any interested reader and features monthly Zoom meetups with national bestselling U.P. Notable authors**such as*Karen Dionne* (/The Wicked Sister/), *Sue Harrison *(/The Midwife's Touch/), and *Steve Lehto *(/Death's Door)/. Members borrow the books from their local libraries or purchase them at local stores prior to discussions. Presentations include author readings, a conversation on the making of the book, and a live Q&A with the audience. The next meeting is February 13th, 2025 and the full year-long calendar will be announced shortly. UP Notable Books medallion <https://UPPAA.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b1016c5c910959a236f2ff48f&i…>To build this sixth annual list, UPPAA consulted with Upper Michigan booksellers, book reviewers, writers, and publishers to winnow down the notable books to a bare ten titles. These titles demonstrate the wide reach of U.P. literature as they span juvenile, middle-grade, YA, and adult audiences. You can find reviews of many of these books on the UP Book Review <https://UPPAA.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b1016c5c910959a236f2ff48f&i…>. The award committee emphasizes that the list is unranked, each title deserves equal merit as a U.P. Notable Book. These ten books have been deemed essential reading for every U.P. lover and we highly recommend you ask your local librarian or booksellers for them today! Librarians may request a list annotated with ISBNs from president(a)UPPAA.org. 1. /To Be Marquette: A Novel/ by Sharon Dilworth 2. /Animals Out-There W-I-L-D: A Bestiary in English and ASL Gloss/ by Raymond Luczak 3. /Make It Go in the Snow: People and Ideas in the History of Snowmobiles/ by Larry Jorgensen 4. /Limpy's Adult Lexicon: Raw, Politically Incorrect, Improper & Unexpurgated As Overheard & Noodled/ by Joseph Heywood 5. /Memories of a Mackinac Island Native: Life on the Island from 1940s to 2020s/ by Tom Chambers 6. /How to Hike the North Country Trail: Not Quite a Guide /by Joan H.

Notable Classics* The U.P. Notable Books Committee continues its initiative called/U.P.

The committee hopes that these books can bring enjoyment to a new generation of readers. * /Lumberjack: Inside an Era in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan - 70th Anniversary Edition /by William S. Crowe * /A Face in the Rock: the Tale of a Grand Island Chippewa /by Loren Graham Cover of the UP READER #8 <https://UPPAA.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b1016c5c910959a236f2ff48f&i…>The U.P. Notable Books List will also appear in the upcoming *9th volume of /U.P. Reader/*, UPPAA’s own annual literary anthology featuring short stories, poetry, and essays by its members. This successful publication helps spread the word about the organization, raises money for educational programming, and encourages people in the Upper Peninsula and beyond to read U.P. writers. Complimentary copies of the /U.P. Reader/ are available to all U.P. educators and media for the asking. The on-sale date is scheduled for April 15^th . Consult your local bookseller for availability or purchase at Amazon. Established in 1998 to support authors and publishers who live in or write about Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, UPPAA is a Michigan nonprofit association with more than 100 members, many of whose books are featured on the organization’s website at www.uppaa.org <https://UPPAA.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b1016c5c910959a236f2ff48f&i…>.
