VOX books
by Sarah Skinner 22 Aug '23

22 Aug '23

Hello, Library Land! BPL is adding VOX books to our collection! We are looking at best practices for these awesome books. My cataloging gal and I were wondering if we could get your collective input on the following questions: 1. Do you use any sort of zippered bag/pouch for circulation or do they go out like any other book? 2. Do you have any sort of agreement/waiver for checkout (similar to Library of Things or tech equipment)? 3. Do you send the charger home with the patron, too, or do staff recharge them upon check in? Thank you in advance for any information you can provide! Kind regards, Sarah Skinner, MLIS Executive Director (she/her) *"The most important asset of any library goes home at night – the library staff." ~**Timothy Healy*

Read to Grow Trees at the Brandon Township Public Library >From Laura Fromwiller, Director The Brandon Township Public Library in Ortonville, MI is on a mission to add trees to our local park! Through a collaboration with our township's Parks and Recreation department, library patrons are actively reading for a good cause. For every 20 minutes patrons read, they fill in a leaf on their Read to Grow Trees Tracker. Once they fill in 15 leaves they turn in the card for a leaf to write their name on and add to our goal tree wall. For every 100 leaves, the library will donate one tree. The more patrons read, the more trees we plant! Brandon Township is fortunate to have a beautiful park that contains a Living Tree Library that was started back in 2006. Since then, through grants and donations it has grown to 9 acres and over 200 trees with a 1/3 mile sidewalk to enjoy. With financial support from the Friends of the Brandon Township Public Library, 5 different species of trees will be planted in the tree library to commemorate the 150,000 minutes of reading accomplished by our patrons. A true community collaboration that was done all together! **Update from Brandon Township Public Library** - Our patrons surpassed our goal of 2,500 hours of reading, by 45 hours! All 5 trees will be planted!

Language Exchange Program

Hello all: Has anyone set up a successful language exchange/language buddy program at your library, where native English speakers can connect with speakers of another language so each can help the other improve?

social media comments
by Jason Novetsky (Roseville Public Library) 21 Aug '23

21 Aug '23

Hello. Has anyone taken steps to limit or disable comments from the public on their library social media accounts? Unless I'm missing something, Meta doesn't really allow users to disable comments completely on Facebook or Instagram. You can partially (Facebook) or completely (Insta) shut them down on individual posts, but only after they have been posted, not when they are scheduled in Meta Business Suite. This, in typical Meta fashion, seems extremely user un-friendly. We've been leaning toward shutting down comments down due to the rising tensions in social media, but this would make it nearly impossible to schedule posts in advance. Has anyone found a way around this or is there a trick within Meta platforms that I've missed? Thank you, Jason Novetsky Community Relations and Marketing Librarian Roseville Public Library 586-445-5407

If you are not able to attend, that's okay too as I will have a comprehensive list of all presenters that will be sharing info, including their contact and program info. I'll include it in the email inviting you to register.
