Middle Grade book suggestions
by Kaitlin Matesich 16 Feb '24

16 Feb '24

This one is for the Reading Advisory magicians, I need your help: Do you know of a (or multiple!) middle grade books that involve a long term school project? I am working with a 5th grade teacher to find a book to read as a class during their 6-7 week research project. It would be awesome to have part of the narrative mirroring what the students are going through with their projects. As of right now the only books I could think of are The Science Of Breakable Things by Tae Kellerman Project Mulberry by Linda Sue Park Beatles Lightly Toasted by Phyllis Reynolds Naylor Any other titles to share would be greatly appreciated. -- *Kaitlin Matesich* *Youth Services Coordinator* *Benzie Shores District Library* *630 Main St. Frankfort, MI* My Pronouns: She/Her - See www.mypronouns.org to learn more*.*

Unopened Ink Toner Available
by Blair Nelson 15 Feb '24

15 Feb '24

Hi everyone, We have a new, never-used, black toner cartridge available specifically for an MLT-D304E Series Samsung printer ProXpress. We no longer have the printer. The toner was purchased last on 6-21-21. We paid $377.36 for it, so I'm hoping to get half of what we paid. We can potentially bargain, too. We will ship the toner to you. Thank you, Blair Nelson he/his Director Spies Public Library P: (906) 863-2900 bnelson(a)spiespubliclibrary.org www.spiespubliclibrary.org<http://www.spiespubliclibrary.org/> "The life of every person is a diary in which we mean to write one story, and write another; and our humblest hour is when we compare the volume as it is with what we vowed to make it"-James M. Barrie "Librarians are not custodians of books. They are or ought to be guides to books. They cannot consider their work done until they have books in the hands of readers and until they have the contents of those books in the minds and thinking of citizens."--Pearl S. Buck

Sponsored Storywalk Posts
by Justine Peterson 15 Feb '24

15 Feb '24

Hello Library land! We're hoping to get our Storywalk up and running soon, and initially, my township had agreed to go in on the project, but after talking with their supervisor recently, I don't believe that's their plan any more. This isn't necessarily a problem, as I have a few grants lined up that I want to apply for, but it was brought up that maybe local businesses or individuals could chip in and purchase individual posts. I'm all for community participation, and it would take some of the financial burden off the library, but I worry that some of the businesses that were mentioned could rock the boat, and we've managed to keep pretty lowkey. Like many places, our community has some opinions on marijuana provisionaries, a lot of them negative. I'm concerned that having prospective provisionaries sponsor Storywalk posts might lead to some tension, to say the least. Has anyone else had something like this pop up? When it comes to your Storywalks, did anyone want to pay for a post? Would it be easier to just tackle this on our own as the library? I wish I could come to the hive mind with a less-weird question, but I'm feeling a little stumped with this one! Thanks, *Justine Peterson* (she/her) Library Director Seville Township Library Riverdale, MI 48877 P: 989.833.7776 seville.michlibrary.org
