Here's some library-wide news:
- National Friends of the Library Week begins Sunday. We will hold a thank you event in the lobby of Southwest for FOL members from noon till 1:30. Please join us if you can to say thank you.
- Speaking of FOL, their next book sale is at SW next weekend. The city will also have a shredding event in our parking lot that day, so expect a lot of traffic!
- The annual Wisconsin Library Association Conference happens next week. Many of us will be there for a day or two.
- Next Wednesday evening, Kevin Levin, a Civil War Educator, will be at Kenosha's Civil War Museum to discuss the legacy of civil war statues and historical markers. It should be a rich community conversation. KPL is co-sponsoring the event, which begins at 7pm.
- Brandi is off until next Thursday, so please hold any new marketing projects you have until her return, if possible.
- Tuesday evening @7pm we broadcast the second installment of Cultivating the Dream, a fascinating look at "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" in Wisconsin today. That live event, followed by community discussion, is at Uptown Neighborhood Library.
- The IDEA Team meets next Friday evening @6:30pm @SW for a social event/ film and discussion. All staff are welcome.
- We switch to Daylight Savings Time on November 5th this year.
- The KPLF Gala was a smashing success and many guests requested that we do it again. Here's a short film of the awards ceremony. Yes, I have a feather on my head.
Enjoy the warm weekend, everyone!
