Today, we're happy to be hosting tours of Mrs. Brand's 6th Grade English classes. They are learning about the library and its importance to their schoolwork! So, if you see lots of middle schoolers around, say hello and welcome them to the Library!

City Council Meetings
One of my responsibilities in the City is to attend and contribute to meetings of the City Council. The Council meets every other Monday (not counting Federal Holidays and such) to make policy decisions about the City. In my capacity as Department Head, I attend to give City officials any information they need about the library, as well as to be informed about what is going on in other City Departments.
The next Council meeting is Monday, October 15th, so I will be attending once I return from the Public Library Director's Council meeting in Stillwater, Oklahoma.
All City Council meetings, as well as many other types of local programming, can be seen on Suddenlink Channel 19, Perry Information Network (typically referred to by our local citizens by the acronym PIN).

Public Library Director's Council
On Monday, October 15th, I will be attending Public Library Director's Council meeting at Stillwater Public Library. We meet every other month at different Oklahoma Libraries to discuss items of consequence to Oklahoma library directors.
For example, we discuss upcoming legislation involving libraries, how to make sure libraries are well funded, and how to make sure we let our local citizens know how important their libraries are.
It is also a great opportunity to network with my fellow directors and trade ideas about what we're all doing in our communities.

Things On My Desk
This blog replaces the old "Director's Corner" page I was publishing as time permitted. Having a more streamlined format will allow me to pass along news and information about the library and the community to all our readers in a much quicker fashion.
Given that I am fairly tech-savvy, I think that this will be a wonderful addition to our library's web presence.
