Advice on SRP Raffles and Rewards
by Susan Kallewaard 23 Apr '23

23 Apr '23

Hello. I'm preparing for my first Summer Reading Program for youth (0-18 years old), and could use advice from those of you with experience. Although I don't want to overemphasize rewards, I will have "goodie" baskets to raffle for each of 3 age groups (0-4 toddler; 5-11 elementary; 12-18 tween/teen). Plus I'll have a couple other rewards like oversized coloring/activity books and small items. The plan I was thinking of was to hand out raffle tickets at any summer events I host and have children put them in their age group jar. Plus, give out more raffle tickets when completing a monthly reading chart (haven't figured out # of raffle tickets for this - suggestions?). My biggest question is, when you have limited rewards, can you have the same children win more than 1 prize if their name is drawn, or do you limit the prize to one per child? Any other suggestions? TIA! Susan Kallewaard Youth Services Librarian Vicksburg District Library 215 S Michigan Ave, Vicksburg, MI 49097 269-649-1648 skallewaard(a)vicksburglibrary.org

Hear about some of our imaging techniques such as multispectral imaging, IRENE, and more.

Free STEM Project Resource - highly recommend
by Lisa Waskin 21 Apr '23

21 Apr '23

I wanted to share a free resource I became aware of today through Michigan Tech's Mind Trekkers program. I spent a fantastic morning up at Lake Superior State University, which was hosting a Mind Trekkers event for the Eastern Upper Peninsula's middle school students. We had over 400 area students from the Superior District Library's service area come through, and the people from Tech shared with us the resources that are available for free online at their site at https://www.mtu.edu/mindtrekkers/ They have over 200 STEM projects, including instructions, links to YouTube videos, and even where to buy the supplies on Amazon. All Free. Our project was the Human Tuning Fork, and if you haven't done this, I highly recommend trying it. All you need is an all-metal item like a spoon, fork, spatula, or metal slinky (I highly recommend the slinky), some string, and your two index fingers. All of the projects listed on their site would make great in-library programs, as well as easy to make take-home kits for families for all ages. The people from Tech were helpful, friendly, and couldn't thank us enough for participating in the event. If you want more information from them, their contact email is: Mind Trekkers mindtrekkers(a)mtu.edu<mailto:mindtrekkers@mtu.edu>. Thanks, and have a great weekend.

Only 9 miles from downtown Cleveland, you are a short drive to multiple professional sports venues, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, the Cleveland Museum of Art, and Playhouse Square (the second largest unified arts complex in the U.S.).

Art Items in Makerspace Areas
by COO Elyshia Hoekstra 21 Apr '23

21 Apr '23

Happy Friday Library Land, I am looking for some ideas. We recently had a former patron pass away and a fair-ish monetary donation was made to the library in his memory. Both he and his wife were artists, and one of our ideas was to add an art aspect to our makerspace area. However, I'm not sure what that would look like. Do any of you have any art pieces included in your makerspace areas? What do you have? Is it messy and/or expensive to maintain? Does it see a lot of traffic? Anything else I should keep in mind? You can reply to me off list at [ mailto:cooeh@llcoop.org | cooeh(a)llcoop.org ] . Thanks! Elyshia Hoekstra, Director Coopersville Area District Library 616-837-6809

YA books
by Deb Hemmye 21 Apr '23

21 Apr '23

We are starting to weed our Young Adult collection and are hoping someone else might be able to save these books from a landfill (despite the fact that we send them to our recycling center, I have my doubts as to whether they actually get recycled). I've gone through all of our discards and removed any with yellowed pages, stains, tears, water wrinkles, etc. Most of these have only circ'd a couple of times. If you're interested, please send your Rides handle and the titles you want, or you can take the entire box. If there is interest, we have many, many more to come. Thanks! Deb Hemmye (she, her, hers) Library Director Huntington Woods Public Library 26415 Scotia Road Huntington Woods, MI 48070 248-543-9720, ext. 686
