Report
September 7, 1982
Circulation for the month of July was up from 1981:
1981 1982
Adult 5,583 5~6~3
Juvenile 4,991 6,651
Book Bus 1,774 1,656
12,34C 13,990
LIBGIS statistics for the month of July included 1,067 reference, 188
directional A~ and 16 directional B questions. Based on a month with
21 working days~ this means that the staff answered 50.81 reference~
8.95 directional A~ and .76 directional B questions per day.
The children's department has drawn a wild summer to a quiet close.
768 children participated in the library's three reading clubs~ and
this huge number set an all-time record. Those children who completed
the clubs' requirements were treated to parties on August 10 and 12.
Three weeks of pre-school crafts in August rounded out the summer sched-
ule.
Thanks go to Lucy Arent, Pat Jindra, and Sue Murzyn for the lemonade
cheesecake they baked for the July senior citizen program. Thanks
also go to Pat Jindra, Ruth Miller, Loretta Spindler, and Ruth Wester-
berg for helping to serve. Sixty-five people enjoyed the return of
adult story-teller Loren Niemi with his program~ "Once upon a Time,
Part II." This program was sponsored by the ~tinnesota Association
of Library Friends and the llinnesota Humanities Commission.
The Fifth Annual Unannounced, Unadvertised Book Sale was a howling
success. Nearly all the one zillion items offered were sold and the
happy results are:
Friends ...... $654.10
Library ...... 251.45
$9O5.55
It is interesting to note that in the past three years, the library
has made zbout the same amount at the sale~ which indicates we are
discarding about the same number of items, and the Friends have tripled
their profit, which is a great tribute to their dedication and hard
work. Good show, ladies! It was a pure delight to work with you on
this project.
September 11 will be the library's first open Saturday of the fall
season.
~obyn Eide and Jeanne Sopcinski have both finished their careers at
the library. Carol Uden~ who worked on a special project over the
summer, has returned to Concordia College. The staff wishes them well
in their future endeavors. The "pagettes~' met to negotiate fall sched-
ule on August 23, and they are now regular pages. Fall schedule started
August 30, the first day of school in District 13.
On August 26, Becky and Mary went to the record store and spent a lot
of money. The new records and tapes will be ready for public use in
mid-September.
