LIBRARIAN'S REPORT
August-September 2005
A,is was a month in which patrons demonstrated great generosity. Staff members have been packing and
~auling donated garden produce to the New Berlin-Muskego food pantry. I heard about one trip that included 17
bags of beans, peppers, squash, onions, melons, and zucchini.
Nearly 500 pounds of non-perishable food and hygiene items was collected for survivors of Katrina, and taken to
Second Harvest. Many thanks to library staff members who organized the drive and did the "heavy lifting."
The library was given some beautiful plants this month, one from Helen Bixby, and another from John Spitzner.
The floral arrangements on the checkout desk often come from Spritner's, which has been a thoughtful neighbor
since the library moved in.
We received several memorial gifts this month. The Southwest Wehr Chapter of the "Wild Ones" donated a copy
of the recently completed Invasive Plants of the Upper Midwest, by Muskego resident, the late Betty Czarapata.
Former library board member Barbara Yahr and Mr. Yahr, asked the library to purchase art, painting or craft
books in memory of Mary Ann Maus, a former member of the Friends' Board. Modern fiction and political and
historical biographies will be purchased through a gift by the Schubert family in honor of Donald Strohschein.
Former library board member, Don Carter, has received the first copy of his memoir about life as a boy in Sierra
Leone. He will be donating a signed copy, and we are considering a book-signing event. Wisconsin authors are
being spotlighted in our floor displays this month, to honor the Wisconsin Book Festival. Look for the display
units with the orange cloths. A "Notable Wisconsin Authors" list is available as a handout.
October will be busy at the library. John Lehman, nationally acclaimed writer, poet and writing coach, will be the
Friends of the library's and the Muskego Writers' Group's special guest on October 19th At 7 P.M. He will give a
.resentation and answer questions on the writer's craft and getting published.
~n Saturday, October 22, Muskego native, painter Kerry Wohlust, will be honored at a reception at 1 P.M. He is
donating thirteen oil paintings to the city that depict Muskego in the 1930s. They will be on permanent display at
the library.
Charlene Lenzen will be honored for twenty-five years of service on Tuesday, October 25th at the common council
meeting, which begins at 7:30 P/M. She is the fourth library staff member to be so recognized.
The "Heirlooms Roadshow" program, sponsored by the Friends of the Library, will repeat on Saturday, October
29th from 1-4 P.M.
New adult fiction and non-fiction lists are on display. Ravenous Readers, for students in grades five through
seven, is celebrating its 15th year. Bookworms, the high schoolers' group is entering year fourteen. Both are
made possible through funding from the Friends of the Library.
The library received $225 from WCFLS to put toward children'slteen programming.
Quote of the month: In honor of "Banned Books Week," another splendid floor display: "A good collection has
something offensive for everyone." [Deborah Duke, Enoch Pratt Free Library, Maryland]
