Programming Recommendation - Greg Bodker & Birds
by Director 01 Feb '23

01 Feb '23

Good morning everyone, We recently hosted the "Birding and Birdwatching" program with Greg Bodker at our library and it was a huge success. Greg is responsive, knowledgeable, and passionate about the subject matter - his excitement was infectious for our audience, plus he also tailored the program specifically for our area. The program drew a large audience (our largest since a kids' program from last summer!), with a mix of children, teens, and adults. I would definitely recommend booking Greg for a library program. Best, Kelsey Rutkowski *--------------------------------------* *Library Director* *Indian River Area Library* 3546 S Straits Hwy PO Box 160 Indian River, MI 49749 (231) 238-8581 indianriverlibrary.org

Dear Michlib- It's time for us to order some library SWAG (Stuff We All Get), and I'd like to know if you've got a freebie that patrons seem to really love? Color-changing pencils?

Request for Information on newspaper digitization project
by Amanda Hanson 31 Jan '23

31 Jan '23

Hello, I am looking for advice on how to implement a newspaper digitization project. Has anyone successfully accomplished this in the recent past? Did you use a service or buy any specialized equipment and do it in-house with library staff? How much did you digitize (how many years' worth of newspapers) and how long did it take? Thanks for any insight or advice you can provide. Have a great day, Amanda H. [Logo]<https://www.cityofzeeland.com/> Amanda Hanson | Director Howard Miller Library & Community Center 14 S. Church Street | Zeeland, Michigan, 49464 p: 616.748.5901 | c: 616.368.9567 e: ahanson(a)cityofzeeland.com | w: www.cityofzeeland.com<http://www.cityofzeeland.com/>
