News for the Week

Thanks to managers and their families who came out for the SW tagging party Friday night. We made a real dent in the collection in preparation for AMH installation. There's a lot more to do! Please sign up and tag whenever you can. The more we have done before AMH, the less repeat circ work we need to do at SW.

Thanks to all staff who worked the Kenosha Expo booth this past weekend. We met a lot of happy customers and educated a few people who had been out of touch for a while. I heard much praise for staff, our new spaces, and the Kenosha Connects program!

We host Lakeshores Library System directors tomorrow morning at NS for their monthly meeting. We'll be touring the AMH installation between 10:30 and 11.

The Kenosha Creative Economy community meeting happens at Uptown tomorrow, beginning 6:15pm. If you are an artist and want to contribute to the conversation, please attend!

We have three internal candidates for the new Communications Specialist position. We will begin interviews next week.

Supervisors meet on Tuesday the 14th. The city attorney's office will be present to answer questions related to library service.

The Wisconsin Marathon takes place in downtown Kenosha on Saturday, May 6th, beginning 7am. The track includes streets around Simmons, but leaves 7th Ave free for parking that day.

I'll be at a library conference Thursday and Friday this week. Lin and Anne are in charge during my absence.
