LIBRARIAN'S REPORT
September-October 2005
.YOU haven't seen the paintings of Kerry Wholust, please stop in. I think library users will enjoy the glimpse of
uskego in what must seem a gentler time. The reception went well, thanks to everyone who helped. Nicole
Adrian from the Sun was here, and she interviewed the artist and his family.
We received a copy of former Muskego resident Daryl Gonyon's recently published book, You Can Change the
World!: The Oldest Secret of All-Time Re-Discovered: Inspirational Letter Writing. The author's mother, Jane
Gonyon St. John, still lives in Muskego, and is also a writer.
The library received a $200 memorial in honor of Donald K. Strohschein. His daughter, Ann Schubert, is a
librarian, and she and her family are well-known to, and appreciated by, the staff.
A new fern plant was also a gift this past month. It really adds to the room's warmth and color.
The usual programming has resumed. In addition, Penny is constructing a "turkey tie." It will be used for
storyhour, and in a display, after which it will be donated to a retirement community. So, bring on those
obnoxious ties that your spouse bought you-or won't let you wear! What doesn't get used this year will be easy
pluckin's for next year!
The John Lehman visit was well-received, and there was a good article in the Sun.
Some of our policies are being used in Reference Services Policies, Procedures and Guidelines," from Neal-
Schuman, the publisher of Tom Hennen's planning book.
CAFÉ meetings have continued; also interlibrary loan. There was a demonstration of "statewide virtual
reference." WCFLS will be taking part in a multi-year demonstration project. Eventually, you will be able to go to
our Website, and have reference questions answered even when the library is closed.
.onia attended a support staff workshop, "Celebrate What's Right in Your Library."
We again received a Gates grant for two hours of staff computer training, so staff were here one morning at 7 AM
to work with computer guru Marilyn Kemp. The topic is "the things patron ask for computer help on that we don't
know how to do."
Saturday, November 1ih will see "Murder and Mayhem in Muskego." Michael Andree, forensics (CSI) consultant
will do a presentation, including a "crime scene" investigation by attendees, and his "evidence dog." Following
that, lunch-with the authors and guest speakers-will be provided. The afternoon session features a panel of
crime writers: Blake Crouch, David Ellis, John Galligan, Libby Hellmann Fischer, Melanie Lynn Hauser, Gregg
Hurwitz, Joe Konrath, and David Walker. Jon and Ruth Jordon, publishers of "Crime Spree Magazine," and
Jennifer Jordan, mystery anthology editor, will moderate the panel. There will be time for questions and answers,
as well as autographs. Copies of the authors' books will be available for purchase from Richard Katz, owner of
Mystery One Bookstore.
Quote of the month: "I can't prove this, of course, but I would bet that every civilization that destroyed itself
began its self-destruction when someone in power wanted to control what the peo~le were reading." [Essayist
Roger Rosenblatt, quoted on PBS's "The News Hour," which just celebrated its 30t year on the air.]
