Librarian Mid-Week Update

Hello Librarians - In this digital era, things happen lighting fast, so sharing any Library news is essential especially for all on-duty Librarians.  Here's library tidbits for this week:
Weather closures & schedules:  Closures for regularly scheduled library hours, classes, webinars, or meetings are determined by the Vancouver School District Closures:  if the schools close then the we will close.  Call Ralph or Kara Lynn if you want confirmation.
Computers:  Two computers have failed and are being replaced.  So currently, the Daily Sales Records must be calculated manually - form copies in the right-hand bottom drawer.
Seminar Silent Auction Donations:  Please fill out a Donation form for any Auction item accepted so we can properly thank the donor.  Place the item on the bottom book shelf under the projector screen.
Newspaper Obituaries:  We continue to accept obituary newspaper obituary and vital static notices.  A banker box is on the bottom book shelf under the projector screen.
                                                              Thanks, Marcia

Spring Seminar Events May 24th -18th

Librarians - it has been too long!  Winter blahs turned quickly to upcoming spring events, travel and more.  As friendly faces in the Library, it is so great when you pass along our Seminar flyers or registrations from the media wall behind the desk as well as downloadable from our web site.  Additionally, we are displaying the Fort Vancouver Tapestry in the Annex for 5 days and we will have a CCGS Exhibit entitled "Finding Your Grandmother's Stories" displayed in the Academy on Saturday and Sunday morning May 26 & 27).  An Event Timeline with Locations will be ready for you this week.  Stay tuned.  Marcia
