SirsiDynix Connections Summit is fast approaching on November 13, 2018 and there's great programming available online, free of charge, from 11am to 3pm. Even if you seldom work with Workflows, there are wonderful presentations on customer experience, tech trends, and marketing that will be of interest to everyone. One of the best programs to look forward to  (ah-hem) is my presentation on the story behind KPL's Power Library Award. My presentation is wedged between two dynamic library leaders, David Lee King and Michael Stephens. I'm going to need to really show my passion to keep up with those guys! Game on!

The KPL Innovation Grant judges will meet on Monday to decide which projects get funded. Stay tuned for an exciting announcement!

This week's Bright Spot Award goes to Dana Purucker for her exemplary conversations with visitors to the Simmons Library. This past Saturday, Dana met the descendants of Zalmon Simmons himself. She so charmed them that they offered fundraising support. Dana, I often hear about your fabulous work with children, but your hospitality extends to all visitors, and we thank you for all you do to make Simmons and KPL shine!

And finally, watch this great video telling us why our patrons use the library and smile! Thanks, Marcia, and KCM!
