The library parking lot will be used for overflow parking from the high school on March 20, 2013. This should not change where you park but some patrons may feel the pinch depending on when they arrive at the library. Just FYI.

Just so everyone knows we now have the Islamic Bookshelf available for the patrons. It is right at the end of the new non-fiction books. There are fiction, non fiction and DVD's available for check out. There are also book marks, very lovely, on the book shelf and also at the desk. Feel free to give them out.
One person has already come in and asked about the items. They were not ready at the time so he said he would come back.
All items have stops so they will go back on the shelf when returned. The items have labels that say Muslim journeys and new stickers with no dates.
Questions?

A man from Budd Lake came in this morning and came to the desk to tell me what a beautiful library we have, the layout is great, it's airy and spacious, lots of natural light, and very organized and clean! He said it was one of nicest libraries he has ever been in!
YAY!

Poetry Celebration 2013
The
Raritan Valley Federation of Libraries (which includes us) is sponsoring a
Poetry Celebration for Poetry Month in April. We are inviting people to submit
1-2 poems which may be selected to be published in one Poetry Anthology for all
the libraries. For information on the whole program, please take a look
at: http://www.bernardsvillelibrary.org/poetry-celebration-april-2013/
This
page can be reached by the public from our homepage from the Adult Programs
navigation bar: go to “Poetry Celebration 2013.”
There
is a link to an entry form which I will also make available at Circ. and the
kiosk. It can be delivered back to us or scanned and emailed to poetry@bvpl.net. All poems must be
emailed to that address.
Poems are due by March
15. We
will have a poetry reading of selected poems by local authors on Thursday,
April 18 at 7:00 pm. This program is mainly for adults, but high schoolers
and middle schoolers are welcome. Lia is also having a poetry contest,
and students could potentially enter both. This one has the earlier deadline.
If
you have any questions, please let me know. M.E.

My dog Skip is coming home!
My dog Skip, who has been very sick, is coming home today! He has made a lot of progress in the last 2 days and will be discharged this afternoon. He still has awhile before he is back to his old self again, but we are heartened that he can finish his recuperation at home. Thank you to my library friends for your warm thoughts, wishes and prayers. You helped me to stay positive when I didn't feel like being positive. I am very grateful to you all. MH 1-23-13

Bird status
We watched as the (starling) bird flew into the YS office, then further inside into the YS store room, then up into the ceiling above the tiles. We could hear him jumping around up there. Maybe he'll find a way outside.
FYI - our inside store room door must remain closed until we're sure he's outside - I put a sign on the door.

Inventory marches on!!
We are almost done with the inventory! You will find stops on items from almost all collections in the library. If an item has a hold on it, just let it circ again--don't put on the inventory cart. We will catch it when the holds list disappears.
Thanks for the cooperation!! It's been crazy, but worth it collection-wise.
