B&T
by Jim Flury 02 Oct '25

02 Oct '25

All, I had a lengthy conversation with MI B&T rep Curt Leppert earlier. I wanted to share a synopsis of our talk while it was still fresh in my mind, as I've noticed that the hard drive that is my brain seems to have a tendency to not retain information for as long a period of time as used to be the case. Perhaps it is full. Or empty. Curt shared the following: On September 11 B&T employees got a "all hands on deck business call at 4:00 p.m. today" message from their CEO. During the call it was announced that B&T was being sold to a company called ReaderLink. Nobody at B&T had ever heard of ReaderLink, but some searching revealed that their market included the likes of Costco, Meijer, Kroger, etc. Following a two week period of discovery and due diligence, the sale was to close on Friday, September 26. That two week period included B&T employees, who would become ReaderLink employees, signing up for the ReaderLink healthcare plan, etc. Since ReaderLink was not in the library business the plan was for them to order the books from the publishers, then ship them to the two remaining B&T warehouses for processing (when applicable), followed by shipment to libraries. To me that sounds like a way to slow things down even further, but that's just my opinion. Most B&T employees would have been retained, including the sales team, although there probably would have been some degree of consolidation in areas where duplication of effort would have been taking place, such as HR, etc. The current B&T CEO would be retained and continue to run the library side of the operation. During that two week period the sales staff spent considerable time tracking down every contracted customer, and asking them to sign a document giving B&T permission to assign each customer's contract to ReaderLink. Curt did note that B&T discovered that many more of their customers were under contract than he realized (TLN Executive Director Steve Bowers signed said document, as we are the party of record for the MI statewide discounts contract with B&T). Most of the libraries that were under contract nationally did the same. During the rest of the two week due diligence period, the remaining t's were crossed and the i's were dotted. On Thursday, September 25 all was ready to go with the sale. The next day, Friday, September 26 B&T employees were told that the sale had been called off. No explanation was offered to B&T staff as to why the sale was called off or perhaps, no explanation was given that Curt was willing to share. Since then, nothing has been communicated to B&T staff or perhaps, nothing Curt was willing to share. For my part I told Curt that I was disappointed by the total lack of communication from B&T concerning this, and I asked him to convey our disappointment to the decision makers at B&T. Curt acknowledged our frustration and said that he would do so. He also noted that libraries need to go with the business decisions that currently make the most sense for them when it comes to their acquisition of materials and finally, that the B&T CEO, CFO and stakeholder investors were having frequent meetings and that this issue would be resolved, likely very soon, one way or the other. I don't want to read between the lines concerning either of those, but...

Fw: Michigan Author recommendation
by Lynne Wiercinski 02 Oct '25

02 Oct '25

While I recommend books to patrons every day, I do not usually do so to other libraries via our listservs. BUT...I am making an exception. I highly recommend adding Bring One Home by local author Thomas Pelissero if you are looking to enhance your Michigan Authors collection or simply looking for a great read. While the setting is the Upper Peninsula town of Bessemer's 1960s basketball scene, this memoir has an appeal that extends far beyond Bessemer and the U.P. It is a beautifully written memoir that perfectly captures: * Nostalgia for Days Gone By: A heartfelt tale of a simpler time, living in a tight-knit community. * The Universal Boyhood Journey: The story of an adolescent trying to meet the expectations of the adults in his life. * Excellent Writing: Although this is his first book, Tom writes with the confidence of a seasoned author, and the professional production quality of the book itself is exceptional. * Attached is an introductory letter from the author and a book sheet. Tom will be giving a presentation at the Bessemer Public Library on November 1st in case anyone wants to do a road trip to the beautiful far western end of the U.P. to meet him!

Hello Librarians, Does anyone have a template for Application Forms for their entry level Library Assistant sort of positions? Historically, we have only required a resume and letter of interest, but it would be nice to observe what others are using to see whether we may want to modify our procedure in the future.

Book Vendors: Status and Contact Info
by Jim Flury 02 Oct '25

02 Oct '25

All, As you know every three years TLN issues an RFP to library materials vendors, seeking proposals for discounts on book/AV materials. The current set of signed contracts covers the period October 1, 2024 through September 30, 2027. Baker and Taylor is one of the vendors covered by this contract. That company's current/apparent financial challenges have been well documented in our professional literature as of late, and since B&T is such a significant presence in the library materials market, their troubles have caused disruption throughout the MI library world in terms of non-fulfillment of orders and thus, service to our patrons. As the above is the case, and in an effort to try to furnish libraries with the most accurate and up to date information that we can, I decided to reach out to our reps at "The Big Three" (Baker and Taylor, Brodart, Ingram) and ask them about their current status. Our B&T rep Curt Leppert has yet to respond. Given what we have been reading/hearing about Baker & Taylor, it is possible/understandable that Curt may be limited in terms of what and how much he can say at this time. Below are the copied/pasted replies from Brandy Cain at Ingram and Kim Langenderfer at Brodart. Please feel free to reach out to these reps directly, or contact me off-list if you have any questions. Thank you, Jim Flury Hi Jim, Thank you for your email! We are currently working through a high volume of communications helping libraries during this time. We are actively onboarding new library accounts. We are not turning libraries away. Due to moving to a new cataloging system, and due to volume, full shelf ready services do have a queue. Each library is different, and we have options for some shelf ready items now like mylar jackets, laminate, and a few other options now. We are excited for the new cataloging system we hope to be working fully in by first part of 2026 which will allow our libraries more flexibility in their set ups and options, faster set ups, and change requests to profiles going forward. Please feel free to share mine and Lisa’s contact with anyone who has questions, and we can work with them for their unique needs. Have a great evening, Brandy Brandy Cain Senior Inside Sales Representative | Ingram Library Services LLC p | 615.213.5786 e | [ mailto:brandy.cain@ingramcontent.com | brandy.cain(a)ingramcontent.com ] Lisa Deka Senior Sales Representative | Ingram Library Services LLC p | 440.665.5977 e | [ mailto:lisa.deka@ingramcontent.com | lisa.deka(a)ingramcontent.com ] Ingram Content Group | [ https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__www.ingramcontent.com_… | ingramcontent.com ] Ingram Content Group’s operating units include Ingram Book Group LLC, Ingram Publisher Services LLC, Lightning Source LLC., Ingram Library Services LLC, Ingram Content Group UK Ltd., Ingram Content Group AU, and Tennessee Book Company LLC . Hi Jim~ Apologies for the delay. I had myself scheduled for sales calls today . In hindsight I should have cancelled since my email is blowing up. The short answer is, yes. We are onboarding customers. The complicated answer is we cannot make any guarantees for set up time since we’ve had hundreds of profiles come in since last week. In the interest of time, we are suggesting customers wanting items only look to Ingram or Amazon to bridge the time gap, which could be several weeks if not months. If a library wants cataloging and processing, they will go in the queue to be set up after a profile is completed. The inquiries I’ve been getting from Michigan are libraries only wanting items. I’ve only had one who said they would be willing to wait. Let me know if you have any questions.

Grant Opportunity: Help Teens Lead Civic Dialogue at Your Library
by Quick, Shauna (MDE) 01 Oct '25

01 Oct '25

Explore this new grant opportunity for public libraries! Link to Grant: https://cortico.ai/news/apply-now-teen-dialogue-accelerator-for-libraries/ Grant Deadline: October 13, 2025 Cortico<http://cortico.ai/>, in collaboration with the MIT Center for Constructive Communication<https://www.ccc.mit.edu/> (MIT CCC) and PBS FRONTLINE<https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/>, is excited to announce the Teen Dialogue Accelerator! This is a grant opportunity for public libraries to become hubs of youth-led civic dialogue. We’re looking for 10 public libraries from across the U.S. to join us in piloting a new approach to civic learning, youth leadership, and community connection. Selected libraries will receive grant funding, training, and tools to help local teens lead meaningful conversations on civic issues they care about, building skills and models that can be shared beyond their own communities. As part of the sharing process, teens will create media outputs, such as audio medleys, to powerfully tell the story of these conversations to wider audiences. Their conversations will help shape the future of youth civic dialogue and, as America’s 250th anniversary approaches, become part of a larger collection of voices helping to guide our shared future. What is the Teen Dialogue Accelerator? The Teen Dialogue Accelerator is a national initiative equipping libraries to support youth-led small-group dialogue. Over the course of 10 months, the Accelerator equips libraries to: * Host recorded youth-led small-group conversations related to civic identity, democracy, immigration, AI, and the future of work. * Work alongside local youth fellows (ages 16-24) to co-design conversation guides, use AI-assisted tools to make sense of conversations, and create voice-powered outputs<https://cortico.ai/news/insights/voice-powered-outputs/>. * Share conversation insights nationally through PBS FRONTLINE’s For the Record and amplify them locally through events and community partnerships. Why Apply? Selected libraries will receive: * $14,000 grant to support staff time, incentives, program materials, and marketing * Access to AI-assisted, human-steered conversation tools developed by Cortico and the MIT Center for Constructive Communication (MIT CCC) * Opportunity to participate in cohort learning intensives (virtual + in-person at MIT Media Lab) * Ongoing coaching and program support from Cortico and MIT CCC * National storytelling amplification through PBS FRONTLINE * A leadership role in shaping the toolkit for future library civic dialogue programs Deadline: October 13, 2025 at 11:59pm EST.
