It's finally Friday!
The new roof is now finished and it looks great! Our roof fell victim to storm damage in the spring, and a qualified roofer has finallly found time in their schedule to fix the golf-ball size holes. Roofers also put up new fascia boards and soffits, and boy, does it look so much better!
I hope that the beauty of the new roof inspires further updates around the building, inside and out.
New in the library next week will be the entire DVD series by Janette Oke, Love Comes Softly. There are seven DVDs in all, the most recent release is dated 2009. Our patrons have been asking for this very popular series on DVD, and the books continue to circulate well too. We are glad to find a bargain on this set so that we can offer it to our patrons without breaking our budget. We love bargains around here, as you might imagine. Other new DVDs in cataloging are Bride Wars, Derby Dads, Gran Torino, and Material Girls. I'm trying to find bargains on other titles, so if you find one, email me and let me know.
Also next week, barring complications, the onsite tech guru (that's me) will be installing the new patron use computers that will be replacing our oldest units. These old units have served us well, but they are about to wheeze their last wheeze. The new units will offer MS Vista OS instead of XP, and they have much more memory and will process faster too. I will install Office 2007 instead of Office 2000, so our patrons can use the most updated programming at our disposal.
Have a great weekend!

New today: the Library Board held a meeting to discuss recent events including our Summer Reading Program (which was a great success,) our new computers we bought, software programming, and so on. Also announced was an offer to all Board members to attend an administrative conference in Montgomery on Sept 14, 15, and 16. Sessions there will be educational for library administrators and Board members so that we can better serve our patrons. We set the date for Open House for October 6 from 3:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Everyone is invited! Refreshments will be served, and you never know who'll be there. Spread the word, the more the merrier!
