For those of you curious about vaccine distribution, and for our reference staff answering public questions, Kenosha County Health Department shared this website to provide updated factual information. Of particular note is the fact that even after immunization, you must continue the protocols to mitigate the spread, including wearing a mask. I expect many people will think the pandemic is over for them once they're immunized. So we'll update our internal signage to make sure people continue to visit wearing face coverings. (Thank you, Brandi!)
The Wild Wisconsin Winter Web Conference happens later this month. There is no charge- our library system is a sponsor. Please take a look and choose one or more programs to attend. There is something for everyone and sessions are short- you don't need to sign up for the whole conference or even a whole day.
Do you love kids' books? Do you love to read to kids? YFS offers KPL Book Break, a call-in program for families to listen to a KPL staff member reading a book. It's easy to be the reader- just pre-record yourself reading a kids book. You can record multiple versions till you get it just right. ( I think I re-recorded 5 times before I was satisfied!) Heather can give you all the details and offer you a full list of books to choose from. It's so fun- don't be shy!
This week's Bright Spot goes to Michelle who has been working really hard to wade though hundreds of applications and fill all our staff positions with great people. Between writing job ads and posting them, sifting through the apps, interviewing dozens of candidates, completing offer letters and employment forms, conducting background checks and phoning references, and then providing an orientation to the library (sometimes at 6:30am) for every single hire... well, you can imagine how hard she's working. So next time you see her, thank her for finding us such great KPLers!
