lots of book marks for everyone
I wanted to update all of you on the different book marks we are giving out to patrons in their materials.
1. There are the interlibrary loan book marks (red) that are included in the items we are getting for people. There is one per person getting items. The person processing the items, right now me, will put them in the books. If you need a supply available at the desk let me know and I will provide them to you.
2. The little yellow book marks for all patrons. These books marks which appeared last evening, Thursday, are a way to let patrons know that our budget is getting ever tighter and we are spending it carefully. The book marks should be distributed into some items, but not necessarily all. They can go with books, magazines, DVDs, CDs and audiobooks. They should go to people taking out children's items as well as adult material. The idea to is make sure that everyone knows that the budget is being affected by all the cuts in Trenton and that patrons need to be aware and hopefully react supportively. This is a tiny reminder particularly to patrons who don't seem tuned into whats going on. If we get back the feed back of what they like and don't like that is a great bonus which we can use for collection development. You will have to check for the yellow book marks when you check in items. Put all returned book marks in my box.
3. The orange cards that patrons are signing will go through Monday night. The master and paper is in Madelyn's box. These cards go to Madelyn when box is emptied.
If you have questions please ask me. The yellow bookmark master and some paper are in my box. Please feel free to make as many as you need.
