Friend Rita, thanks for the reply. I agree we are all friends here. What I don't understand is regestering with another member as a friend. What is the reason behind this? So far, Eva Nell is the only one to befriended me. She has always been frie...

Buford, you do too know what a friend is. You are a friend if you take time to help and pray for and care about others. You are a friend of ours because we share library goals with each other.

The Counselor

For many years I prepared the Counselor for TACMO "our library associational organization." I have samples of everything I wrote while at the Sunday School Board, except the Counselor. If any of you
have some of these, I would really appreciate it if you could send me some. Keith Mee, 1721 Totanka Ln. Knoxville, TN 37931.

Using Social Media to Make the Case for Supporting Library Services

I came across this Webinar on the Web Junction web page.

http://evanced.info/webjunction/evanced/eventsignup.asp?ID=1623

I don't know if this would be of interest to us or not. I don't think there is any cost. It is scheduled for 11/19/2009 at 1:00 p.m. est. It will probably be available as an archive.

From the About Us Web Junction page:

Our vision is to be the place where the worldwide library profession gathers… Continue

Fiction Call Numbers

Request your ideas for Adult Winter Reading Theme: "Savor a Good Book"

Our idea is to decorate the display window with a kitchen theme including salt, pots, soup bowls, wooden spoons, measuring spoons, spices, dish towels, aprons, etc. For signing up to participate in the reading prog… Continue
