The boys' travels will take them to Escanaba, Seney, Menominee, and the surrounding area.

Terri is currently a regular contributor to /UP Magazine/ (Porcupine Press) where she finds an outlet for her humorous stories. Anthologies of these stories can be found in her books: /Church Lady Chronicles: Devilish Encounters/ (2021) and /High on the Vine/ (2022). Terri's recent middle-grade children's novel, /The Home Wind/, received the 2022 U.P. Notable Book award. Her full-length novel /Moose Willow Mystery: A Yooper Romance/ was just released. The cover of "The Home Wind" by Terri Martin <https://UPPAA.us3.list-manage.com/track/click?u=b1016c5c910959a236f2ff48f&i…>"The boys’ first 'man-making' adventure together comes when the camp boss has the two of them go to Seney for supplies, which are running low near the end of the winter. Jamie sees firsthand how his friend is treated in the White world and the dangers to the two of them from people trying to steal the camp money and then the provisions. Gray Feather comes to the rescue in both instances. "Once spring comes, Jamie’s mother remarries one of the logging camp men who has always been kind to Jamie. The family heads to Menominee and from there to a sawmill town, taking Gray Feather with them. The author puts readers right there on the steamer, pitching about in the waves of a strong wind as they head for Escanaba and then Menominee. I felt their seasickness just reading it. "Gray Feather’s inner conflict and resolve to have revenge on his father—whom he has learned is in that area—comes to the surface. Jamie must decide how to help his friend, keep to what he knows to be right, and then be able to let Gray Feather go his own way. Both find their 'home wind', or purpose in life, in the process. The height of the action comes as a wildfire rips through the sawmill town. Readers can’t miss the symbolism found throughout the book and a wonderful way to learn about the past at the same time. This book should go far, and not just with young audiences. A great discussion guide can be found at the end of the book for classroom, homeschool, or adult book club use." —Review by Deborah Frontiera. Read the complete review at the /U.P.

question about music collection
by Laura Hauch 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

Hello, We are starting up a music CD collection at our library (Thanks Canton for your donations!!!), and had some questions about organizing. We are planning on organizing by genre, then artist, then title. Issue we're running into right now is classical- do you organize by composer, or by performer? Also curious how other libraries organize, and if you shelf by genre, which genres do you use? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks, Laura Hauch Collection and IT Coordinator Buchanan District Library 128 East Front Street Buchanan, MI 49107 269-695-3681 269-695-0004 Fax www.buchananlibrary.org<http://www.buchananlibrary.org>

Fundraiser Concerns
by Kaitlin Matesich 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

Hello all! I was recently approached to offer my services as a Story Time presenter as a biddable item for a local "Spring Fling" fundraiser. My first instinct was, "I can easily put together a bespoke story time for 5-10 kiddos. Offering literacy services as part of a fundraiser, what a great idea!" but then the reality of the logistics and the idea of individuals paying for a private library/librarian experience set in. Has anyone had a similar experience? What did you, your library or your friends group do? Any suggestions for a literacy focused, biddable experience or item? I don't feel comfortable offering "private" story time services outside of the library setting, and would never want to go to an individual's residence to host a story time. The idea of "selling" a story time or even allowing someone to pick a theme for a program that would be open to the public doesn't sit right (if it is even legal) . -- *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*.*
