Re: Sustainability & Climate Change Programming (Jean Fellows) 7. Spyglass (Tracy Logan) 8. Last time - Frank Lloyd Dollhouse (Amber Alexander) Hello All, I recently started the WebJunction series regarding handling Climate Change at the library. I highly recommend checking in on this webinar series if you haven’t already. It’s free and you can watch the first two webinars recordings, including Sustainability 101 (https://www.webjunction.org/events/webjunction/sustainability-101.html)\ I am looking forprogramming ideas that can align with Sustainability and Climate Change topics, but I am having trouble finding out where to start. As the Adult Programmer at the library, I am comfortable in facilitating certain programs, but really wish to haveexperts talking about the subjects at hand. If any area libraries have hadpresentations/programs on topics that relate to this and could suggest presenters or themes, it would be very helpful. Our library is located just north of Kalamazoo on the west side of the state. We like to have presentations in-person, as we do not get a lot of attendees for Zoom/Live Stream programs (I do see the irony in having someone travel to talk about climate change, but getting the information out is important, so…) Thanks so much!

Project, and is believed to be clean.Anna, We hosted Chris Edwards and his climate talk this past May and he is excellent! His presentation offers great information that is accessible to non climate scientists and he is very personable and easy to work with. His website is www.weatherchris.com , email is rfrhomes@live.com and you can find his talk on youtube if you want to preview his presentation. https://youtu.be/vzaBSK4lwxs?feature=shared Chris is based in metro Detroit and we are up in Northport - so we reached out to other local libraries to schedule him around the same time so he had more than one reason to make the trip north. And we had a great turn out! We highly recommend him.

Lake Street Cadillac, MI 49601 231-775-6541 logant@cadillaclibrary.org Last call, other requests have fell through. We need this out of our library. It is large and would take a mini-van or truck to haul. If there is no interest, it will be taken to Goodwill or St. Vincents which is an already long drive for us. We have had it in our library for a few years and shared with our branches but we need to make room and would like it to go to a good home. There is some furniture which is included. It does need a table to sit on (current table is also available) and will need a couple of people to lift and carry. Again van or truck would work better.
