Fall workshop
I'm currently in the lobby of the Yogo Inn at Lewistown, taking a break from library classes.
.
The library here in Lewistown is quiet old and very beautiful. The picture to the right is from the Lewistown Public Library web page. I just heard that this great library has suffered a huge budge cut. It is so hard to manage a library in Montana where money can be very hard to come by. I feel very fortunate that Jefferson County is doing okay money wise this year.
My next class is about econtent and libraries such as downloadable audio books. The State Library is looking in to a state-wide contrance with an e-book company to provide downloadable books for Montana libraries. The State Library is really most excellent! Off I go to learn more stuff so I can better serve my library patrons!
Live from the Montana State Fall Workshop @ Lewistown
I am sitting in the Web 2.0 class at the Fall Workshop in Lewistown, learning about blogs, Myspace and other social software. If only there were only more time in the day. I just learned how it's better to do a post in Edit Html rather than compose. A lightbulb goes off.
The drive here was so beautiful and I saw hundreds of antelope and wild turkey. I wonder if you can raise wild turkeys? Hmm, maybe I should get a book!

Last day of Sirsi SuperConference
What a time I've had! Excellent food, interesting people from all over the US, Canada and other countries and really comfy beds. Oh, and interesting conference sessions. What more could a person want?
I've learned some interesting stuff about sharing library resources and getting them into the patrons hands. I heard about one library who partners with Netflix to get videos to their library patrons. Isn't that cool? So many new ways to serve the public and so little time to implement them. I intend to start a Whitehall Wicki soon and to have podcast available with Whitehall related stories.

Colorado Springs
I'm in Colorado Springs, CO attending the Sirsi SuperConference for users of the lSirsi ibrary circulation product. We are staying in the most excellent Broadmoor Hotel and Convention Center one of the most luxorious places I've ever stayed in. I keep exclaiming over everything. Robes in the rooms! Bath scales! Real cups and glasses! Outdoor fire pits! Art everywhere! Of course, things are on the pricey side but I tell ya, a person could get used to this. Well, gotta go attend a class. More later.

Long time no see
A bad, bad blogger that's what I am. So much work, so little time. So, where to start? I guess there's no point in talking about events that have come and gone so here's some upcoming events.
Our book club, Whitehall Reads, will be meeting to discuss Mary MacLane's book "The Story of Mary MacLane" February 22nd, 6:30 at the library. "The Story of Mary MacLane" was 20 year old Mary's diary and after its publication she became known as "The Wild Woman of Butte!" The diary revealed her innermost thoughts about her sexuality and how much she hated Butte, things one just didn't talk about in those days. The books sold 80,000 copies in the first month, something quite unheard of in 1902. Here's a link to a Wikipedia entry about her and a review of the book at the Montana Historical Society.
On March 17th, St. Patrick's Day at 2:00, we will be having Molly Kruckenberg with the Montana Historical Society present "A Taste of Montana: A history of cookbooks and cooking in Montana." "The history of food and cooking in Montana is as old and varied as the human occupation of the state, and cookbooks provide a window into this transient artform. Weaving together changes in food preparation and technology with the correlating changes in cookbooks, this program shows how cookbooks can be used to explore social and cultural changes in our history. Using illustrations from historic cookbooks, A Taste of Montana provides a delicious way to rediscover the past." Irish soda bread and tea will be served.

We've got more pages than, well, a library!
At the Montana State Library Fall Workshop this last week in Lewiston I took a class in creating a Protopage and Google Page Creator. The Protopage I created for the Whitehall Library is here.
If you'd like to read about Protopages click here. The one I made for the libary will be on all the library computers as a home page and will have all sorts of useful links and info.
Our Google Page Creator is going to be used more like a traditional web page and to see it in all it's glory go thisaway. So between this blog, our Protopage and the Google Page you have absolutely no excuse for not knowing every single thing there is to know about the Whitehall Library.
The drive to Lewiston was really beautiful and I took a few pictures along the way.

Whitehall Reads!
Whitehall Reads is a book discussion group that meets the fourth Thursday of the month at 6:00 p.m. at the Whitehall Community Library. October 26th we will be discussing "Buster's Midnight Cafe" by Sandra Dallas. Books may be picked up at the library, limited quantities available. For more information call 287-3763.
A wise and sassy narrator, marvelous characters, and a plot that blends Hollywood scandal, lifelong friendship, mystery and romance—these are the specialties served up in Sandra Dallas’s offbeat, inspired debut novel.
Effa Commander is no spring chicken, but her spirit shines and her smart mouth still puts fools to shame. The fool in question is a gossip hound writing a scurrilous account of her beloved friends who, though departed, remain the most celebrated citizens of Butte, Montana: the great Hollywood legend Marion Street (nee May Anna Kovacks) and Buster Midnight, the boxing champion whose love for Marion led to the notorious “Tinseltown Crime of Passion” and the end of his career.
Prodded by her bosom buddy, Whippy Bird, Effa Commander takes pen in hand to set the record straight and tell what really happened on that violent night. But to do that, Effa Commander must recount the story of all their lives: hers and Whippy Bird’s and May Anna’s, and Buster and Toney McNight’s and Pink Varscoe’s. Childhood friends, they all became wives and husbands—with the exception of May Anna, of course. She went to work in Venus Alley, hitched herself to a big-time director just passing through on his way to Hollywood, and the rest is history.
Narrated by the irrepressible Effa Commander, this wry and loving chronicle of more than fifty years of friendship carries some universal, homespun truths about what’s really important in life.

April new books.
Listed below are just a few of new titles we have at the Whitehall Community Library. For a complete list of our new titles visit the Montana Shared Catalog and then choose Jefferson County Library-Whitehall.
Bleeding Hearts by Susan Wittig Albert.
In Albert's engrossing 15th mystery to star China Bayles, herbalist, erstwhile lawyer and occasional gumshoe (after 2005's Dead Man's Bones), everyone in China's charming hometown of Pecan Springs, Tex., is stunned when the high school football coach, Tim Duffy, is murdered.
Circle of Quilters : an Elm Creek Quilts Novel by Jennifer Chiaverini.
Elm Creek Quilt Camp is firmly at the center of her latest novel in the series, though Chiaverini broadens the geography and characters. An ad for an instructor at the camp attracts candidates from near and far, all offering a look at different perspectives on what quilting means in their lives.
Statute of Limitations by Steven Havill.
Things go from bad to worse in Posadas, N.Mex., at the start of Havill's appealing fourth Posadas County mystery (after 2004's Convenient Disposal). First, Chief of Police Eduardo Martinez suffers a heart attack while confronting car thieves on Christmas eve; Sheriff Robert Torrez has a pulmonary embolism Christmas morning; a deputy's fiancée is murdered that afternoon; and former sheriff Bill Gastner is brutally attacked that night. It's enough for under-sheriff Estelle Reyes-Guzman to keep up with the medical reports, never mind track down the perps.
Gone by Jonathan Kellerman.
It's a story tailor-made for the nightly news: Dylan Meserve and Michaela Brand, young lovers and fellow acting students, vanish on the way home from a rehearsal. Three days later, the two of them are found in the remote mountains of Malibu - battered and terrified after a harrowing ordeal at the hands of a sadistic abductor.
Sweet Revenge by Fern Michaels.
Isabelle Flanders had everything--her own architectural firm, her fianc Bobby, a life she deserved--until Rosemary Hershey came and stole it all. Took her reputation, her clients, her man, and even framed her for drunk driving--killing three innocent people in the process. The loyal Sisterhood agrees: Rosemary has to be punished, along with the conniving Bobby.
Cage of Stars by Jacquelyn Mitchard.
The author of "The Deep End of the Ocean" delivers a compelling, emotionally charged tale of tragedy, revenge, and redemption, set in a close-knit Mormon community, whose peace is shattered by two brutal murders.

The see the full list of new books in the Jefferson County Library System go to http://montanalibraries.org/ , choose Montana Shared Catalog and then Jefferson County.
Would you like to read some book reviews? Check out the New York Times Review of Books . You might have to register to gain access but there is no charge. There is an interesting article there about the memoir James Frey wrote called "A million little pieces". Apparently Mr. Frey made up things about his past to make his book more interesting. Just how important is the truth in a memoir? The Whitehall Library has a copy of this book so maybe you should read it and make up your own mind on the importance of truth.
If you are looking for a way out of the hole your life has become you might want to read Haven Kimmel's new memoir, "She got up off the couch : and other heroic acts from Mooreland, Indiana". Haven introduced us to her life in "A girl named Zippy", which I just read and enjoyed very much. It's not your usual tale of dysfunction and despair, rather dysfunction and a verve for living.
