LIBRARIAN'S REPORT
November/December, 1999
Laurie from the WCFLS office came here to meet with interloan staff.
Willow Edge and St. Paul's preschools came for visits. Regular programming continued, with
story hours now on hiatus.
Jane attended a TEACH session, and Penny went to a children's meeting. APL was held at Sussex-
Lisbon.
The new building has taken lots of time. We met with furniture and cabling people. The PA system,
security system, and phone system all required meetings and planning for installation. The to-be-
expected, and the unexpected end-of-project problems have arisen, including a contract hold-up with
our custom furnishings company.
After five libraries expressed dissatisfaction with the library system's leadership, DL TCL conducted a
review of the system, Including requesting feedback from member libraries. They concluded, in a letter
to the WCFLS Board, that the system is currently meeting the needs of its members.
We received a reimbursement from WCFLS for the cost of WISCA T, and for our materials grant, in the
amount of 1,250.00. The materials money went toward CDs.
We have been converting the video boxes. Due to the security system, videos will be able to be kept on
regular shelves in the new building, and no longer behind the check-out desk.
The artists of the month have been Phil Perlongo and Bert Ponzi, whose work has received much
favorable comment.
The Jaycees group, which has disbanded, presented me with a check made out to the Friends. Their
proviso was that the funds be used to benefit children. I asked whether they wanted to establish a
programming fund, or spend the money on the collection, and was told to use my discretion. I
recommend that new realia, e.g. educational games, puzzles, flash cards, and other learning-related
kits, be purchased, as our collection is sadly worn. An appropriate gift plate could be inserted.
The 350 books purchased through the Muskego Woman's Club's "Libraries 2000" donation are here,
and being cataloged, processed, and put in storage for opening day.
It Is with regret that we announce the passing of Donna Schmid, who served library users at the
reference desk for over twenty-five years. This skilled and gracious lady, formidable sleuth and
redoubtable plant doctor, will be missed by all who knew her.
